Lightning Protection

For added protection of the display during a lightning storm or when it is left unattended or unused for long periods of time, unplug the display from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system.

Power Lines

Do not locate the antenna near overhead light or power circuits, or where it could fall into such power lines or circuits.

Digital Closed Caption service is a new caption service available on digital TV programs

(also at the election of the service provider). It is a more flexible system than the original

Closed Caption system, because it allows a variety of caption sizes and font styles.

Not all programs and VHS video tapes offer closed caption. Please look for the CC symbol to ensure that captions will be shown.

In the Closed Caption system, there can be more than one caption service provided.

Each is identified by its own number. The CC1 and

CC2 services display subtitles of TV programs superimposed over the program’s picture.

In the Closed Caption system, the TEXT1 or TEXT2 services display text that is unrelated to the program being viewed (e.g., weather or news). These services are also superimposed over the program currently being viewed.

Closed Captioning for this display only works under sources (optional) TV, and VIDEO.







Not every cell phone supports MHL. Please contact your cell phone company for support information or search MHL on the web for more information.

Not every MHL cable supports your cell phone. There are different versions of MHL cables for different cell phones. The wrong type of cable will not produce an image on the display. Please contact your cell phone company to ensure you have the correct MHL cable.

Aspect Ratio Explained

The display is a widescreen display, but most TV programs are still broadcasting in a square format, therefore the display is offering multiple ways of viewing videos.

Simply use the ASPECT button on the display’s remote control to cycle between the multiple modes.

1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

6.

NORMAL

Most analog TV channels have 4:3 signal formats. If the original 4:3 aspect ratio (1.33:1 source) is preserved, black bars are added to the left and right of the display image. This aspect keeps that aspect ratio and shows you the black bars on the side.

WIDE

This mode will stretch the picture to a widescreen ratio. If you have a perfect 16:9 ratio picture you will not see any black bars. If you are watching a widescreen movie in 1.85:1 or 2.35:1 ratio, you will still get black bars on the top and bottom of the screen. If you use this mode on

4:3 pictures they will be stretched and distorted horizontally.

CINEMA

This mode cuts off all 4 sides to try to make a widescreen movie fit better on the display screen.

ZOOM

When watching a 4:3 aspect ratio TV or movie, this mode zooms in to cut off most of the black bars on the side while preserving the 16:9 ratio. Because of the zoom, the top and bottom are cut off as well.

FULL 100%

This mode is only available under HDMI. It will map dot by dot to the screen. Any resolution will be proportionate. The TV will not crop any video from the source.

DOT BY DOT

This mode is only available under PC. It will map dot by dot to the screen. Any resolution will be proportionate. The TV will not crop any video from the source.

PICTURE IS

DISTORTED OR

HAS ABNORMAL

SOUND

Make sure the display is recognized as plug and play monitor.

Try updating your video card’s drivers as well. If that does not help, most likely you’ll need to upgrade your video card to a newer one.

This might be from interference from large electrical appliances, cars, motorcycles, or fluorescent lights. If the display is close to the wall, try moving the display to another room in your house to see if the problem still occurs.

PICTURE DOES

NOT COVER THE

ENTIRE SCREEN

If you’re using HDMI or a digital channel make sure you use the

ASPECT button to switch to 16:9 format. If you are using VGA, use the AUTO ADJUST function to adjust to the screen. Please

Note : If you are using regular analog (optional) TV, AV, or component in 480i resolution, use the ASPECT button to switch to 16:9 in order to fill up the screen. Please Note: This note this feature will distort the picture.



Problems

PICTURE QUALITY

IS HORRIBLE!!

Solutions

For best image quality, view HD widescreen programs where possible. If HD content is not available view “Standard

Definition” from a digital source. Standard, analog TV will always be noticeable inferior to HD because your display has video that is many times better than old TV’s and so you can see interference and deficiencies you did not KNOW you had.

PICTURE HAS

PIXELS THAT ARE

ALWAYS

DISPLAYING THE

SAME COLOR

Your display is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology; however, sometimes some pixels of your display may not show up. Pixels defects within industry specifications are inherent to this type of product and do not constitute a defective product.

I CANNOT CHANGE

THE TIME

MANUALLY

Your display syncs time automatically according to your local

TV channel. This function only works while the (optional) TV’s tuner is connected to an ANTENNA.

BIG BLACK BOX IN

THE MIDDLE OF

SCREEN

You have turned on closed captioning and are using TEXT1 –

TEXT4. Change the setting to CC1 or turn off closed captioning and the box will disappear. Refer to page 34 for more information.

SWITCHING A

CHANNEL OR

SOURCE CHANGES

THE VOLUME

Different channels and inputs will sometimes have this effect because the channel signal’s own volume is already loud.

There is no way remove this completely. The display has an

AUTO VOLUME LEVEL function that can combat this type of effect. Please make sure that function is turned on.

THERE IS NOISE

OR TRASH PIXELS

ON THE SCREEN

When your display’s resolution is higher than the digital channel’s broadcast resolution, the signal is up-converted to match your display’s resolution. Up-converting can cause this type of effect.

TIPS FOR HIGH

DEFINITION USERS

The display is an ideal platform for viewing High Definition

Content. The best image quality can be achieved by HDMI,

YPbPr (Component), then VGA. However, due to variances in broadcast practices, it is possible some image distortions can occur.

TIPS FOR

LETTERBOX

CONTENT USERS

Letterboxed (Widescreen) versions of DVD movies are most commonly formatted for standard 4:3 TVs. The display has the capability of expanding this content so the entire screen is filled at the expense of the image proportion. To use this function press the aspect button on the remote control and cycle among the available options.

I CANNOT FIND THE

VOLUME AND

CHANNEL

CHANGING

BUTTONS

The buttons are represented by the

▲▼◄► buttons located on the remote control.

▲▼ changes the channels and ◄► changes the volume.

DISPLAY TURNS

OFF

AUTOMATICALLY

AFTER 10 MINUTES

The display features a power saving mode which will automatically turn off the display, if there’s no signal provided for more than 10 minutes.



Problems

MY PICTURE IS

VERY DIM

Solutions

Check to see if you are under POWER SAVING mode for your picture mode. Keep pressing the PICTURE button on the remote control to cycle out of POWER SAVING.

My cell phone doesn’t work when I connect the MHL cable to

HDMI.

Check if you connected to HDMI3 or another HDMI since ONLY

HDMI2 works with MHL. If it still doesn’t work make sure you have the correct MHL cable (some have more pins than others).

Ultimately, please consult your cell phone manufacturer for compatibility issues.

Under MHL the display’s remote won’t control the cell phone screen fully.

For total control you will need to use the cell phone’s touch screen. The display’s remote have limited functions and its controls are dependent on the program you are using.

I HAVE DIGITAL

CABLE AND AFTER

SCANNING FOR

CHANNELS I GOT

NOTHING!

This display does not support QAM. You’ll need a cable box in order for the display to work correctly. Make sure you have a HDMI cable connected to the cable box and to the display. Afterwards turn on the display and cable box and make sure your display’s source is HDMI.
