instructions should be adhered to.  
14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna is connected to  
the receiver, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to pro-  
vide some protection against voltage surges and built up static  
charges.  
4. Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions should be  
followed.  
5. Water and Moisture - The appliance should not be used near water  
- for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub,  
in a wet basement or near a swimming pool, etc.  
Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984,  
provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mats  
and supporting structure grounding of the lead-in wire to an anten-  
na discharge unit, size of grounding connectors, location of anten-

ments for the grounding electrode. See Fig. below.  
6. Carts and Stands - The appliance should be used only with a cart or  
stand that is recommended by the manufacturer.  
6A.  
An appliance and cart combination should be moved  
with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven  
surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination  
to overturn.  
15. Non-use Periods - The power cord of the appliance should be  
unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of  
time.  
16. Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that objects do  
not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through open-  
ings.  
6B. Tilt/Stability - All televisions must comply with recommended inter-  
national global safety standards for tilt and stability properties of its  
cabinet design.  
Do not compromise these design standards by applying exces-  
sive pull force to the front, or top, of the cabinet which could  
ultimately overturn the product.  
Also, do not endanger yourself, or children, by placing elec-  
tronic equipment/toys on the top of the cabinet. Such items  
could unsuspectingly fall from the top of the set and cause  
product damage and/or personal injury.  
17. Damage Requiring Service - The appliance should be serviced by  
qualified service personnel when:  
A. The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged; or  
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the appli-  
ance; or  
C. The appliance has been exposed to rain; or  
D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits  
a marked change in performance; or  
7. Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be mounted to a  
wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.  
E. The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.  
8. Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or  
position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example,  
the appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar  
surface that may block the ventilation openings; or, placed in a  
built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede  
the flow of air through the ventilation openings.  
18. Servicing - The user should not attempt to service the appliance  
beyond that described in the operating instructions. All other servic-  
ing should be referred to qualified service personnel.  
9. Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources  
such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances  
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.  
10. Power Sources - The appliance should be connected to a power  
supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as  
marked on the appliance.  
Note to the CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call the  
CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that pro-  
vides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the  
cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building,  
as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

TIPS IF SOMETHING ISN'T WORKING  
CAUTION: A video source (such as a video game, Compact Disc Interactive - CDI, or  
TV information channel) which shows a constant non-moving pattern on the TV screen,  
can cause picture tube damage. When your TV is continuously used with such a source  
the pattern of the non-moving portion of the game (CDI, etc.) could leave an image per-  
manently on the picture tube. When not in use, turn the video source OFF. Regularly  
alternate the use of such video sources with normal TV viewing.

This TV is equipped with protective circuitry that shuts the TV off in case of moderate power surges. Should this occur turn the  
TV back on by pressing the POWER button once or twice, or unplug and then replug the power cord at the AC outlet.  
This feature is NOT designed to prevent damage due to high power surges such as those caused by lightning, which is not covered  
by your warranty.  
Cleaning and Care  
• To avoid possible shock hazard be sure the TV is unplugged from the electrical outlet before cleaning.  
• When cleaning the TV screen take care not to scratch or damage the screen surface (avoid wearing jewelry or using  
anything abrasive- do not use household cleaners). Wipe the front screen with a clean cloth dampened with water. Use  
even, easy, vertical strokes when cleaning.  
• Specially designed screen cleaning kits are also available which contain anti-static cleaners and cloths designed to get  
into the ridges of the TV screen. If interested, ask your dealer about an optional Projection TV Screen Cleaning Kit or  
call our toll-free Accessory Parts ordering number 1-800-851-8885.  
• Gently wipe the cabinet surfaces with a clean cloth or sponge dampened in a solution of cool clear water and a mild soap  
or detergent. Use a clean dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.  
• Occasionally vacuum the ventilation holes or slots in the cabinet back.  
• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on or near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent marring  
of the cabinet finish.

systems are available.)  
Remote Sensor Window * A window or opening found on the TV  
control panel through which infrared remote control command sig-  
nals are received.  
Coaxial Cable * A single solid antenna wire normally matched  
with a metal plug (F-type) end connector that screws (or pushes)  
directly onto a 75 Ohm input found on the Television or VCR.  
RF * Radio Frequency or modulated signal design used as the car-  
rier for television broadcasts.  
Second Audio Program (SAP) * Another or additional audio  
channel provided for in the Multichannel Television Sound (MTS)  
broadcast standard. A monaural soundtrack included within the  
recorded or video signal (usually containing a second language  
translation for the displayed programming.)  
Display * An on screen message or graphics that help the user  
operate and adjust TV feature controls. See On Screen Displays  
(OSD).  
Identify* Method by which a remote control searches and finds an  
operating code for another product (such as a VCR or Cable  
Converter). Once the code has been "identified" then the TV  
remote can operate and send commands to the other product.  
Status * Allows the user to quickly confirm what channel number  
is currently being viewed. Status can also be used to clear the TV  
of on-screen displays or information (rather than waiting for the  
displays to “time out” or automatically disappear from the screen).  
LED * Light Emitting Diode or indicator.  
Menu * An on-screen listing of feature controls shown on the TV  
screen that are made available for user adjustments.  
S-Video Input * Allows direct connection of high-resolution video  
sources, such as a Super VHS videocassette recorder, Laser Disc  
player, etc. Provides improved picture resolution, sharpness, and  
clarity.  
Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) * The broadcast standard  
that allows for stereo sound to be transmitted with the TV picture.  
Twin Lead Wire * The more commonly used name for the two  
strand 300 Ohm antenna wire used with many indoor and outdoor  
antenna systems. In many cases this type of antenna wire requires  
an additional adapter (or balun) in order to connect to the 75 Ohm  
Input terminals designed into the more recent Televisions and  
VCRs.  
On Screen Displays (OSD) * Refers to the wording or messages  
generated by the TV to help the user with specific feature controls  
(color adjustment, programming, etc.).  
Pre-Amplifier * The control center of a hi-fi system. Not only  
amplifies source inputs, but also allows for source selection, vol-  
ume, tone, balance and all other controls that affect the sound.  
Variable Audio Output * An adjustable audio output which  
allows for volume variations at the source.  
Programming * The procedure of adding or deleting channel num-  
bers into the TV’s memory circuits. In this way the TV “remem-  
bers’’ only the locally available or desired channel numbers and  
skips over any unwanted channel numbers.
