Preparation
Using the remote control unit
Use the remote control unit by pointing it towards the remote control sensor on
the TV. Objects between the remote control unit and the remote control sensor
may prevent proper operation.
Cautions regarding remote control unit
• Do not expose the remote control unit to shock. In addition, do not expose the
remote control unit to liquids, and do not place in an area with high humidity.
• Do not install or place the remote control unit under direct sunlight.
The heat may cause deformation of the remote control unit.
• The remote control unit may not work properly if the remote control sensor on
the TV is under direct sunlight or strong lighting. In such cases, change the
angle of the lighting or the TV, or operate the remote control unit closer to the
remote control sensor.
Antennas
To enjoy a clearer picture, use an outdoor antenna. The following is a brief explanation of the types of connections
that are used for a coaxial cable. If your outdoor antenna uses a 75-ohm coaxial cable with an F-type connector,
plug it into the antenna terminal at the rear of the TV set.
F-type connector
1. A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type
connector that can easily be attached to a terminal without
tools (Commercially available).
75-ohm coaxial cable (round)
2. A 300-ohm system is a flat “twin-lead” cable that can be
attached to a 75-ohm terminal through a 300/75-ohm
adapter (Commercially available).
300-ohm twin-lead cable (flat)
F-type connector
F-type connector should be finger-tightened only.
NOTICE
When connecting the RF cable to the TV set, do not tighten
F-type connector with tools.
If tools are used, it may cause damage to your TV set.

Connecting two or more i.LINK devices
Connecting D-VHS decks/AV-HDD
recorder/Blu-ray Disc recorder (i.LINK
connection)
Up to 16 i.LINK devices can be connected using a
daisy-chain connection with i.LINK cables.
About i.LINK
i.LINK is an interface connection using a serial
transfer system and is able to transfer multimedia
data, such as digital images and digital sound,
between devices that have i.LINK terminals.
i.LINK is a term defined in the IEEE1394 (Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers) standard.
Currently, the transfer speeds are at 100 Mbps, 200
Mbps and 400 Mbps, each of them expressed as
S100, S200 and S400 respectively. On this TV, the
maximum speed is 400 Mbps.
When 3 or more i.LINK devices are connected,
branch connection can be used. With branch
connections, up to 62 i.LINK devices can be
connected.
i. LINK devices that can be connected to this
TV.
Only D-VHS decks, AV-HDD recorders and Blu-ray
Disc recorders can be connected to this TV via
i.LINK. Other devices such as DVD recorders, digital
video cameras, computers or computer peripheral
devices do not meet the specifications for this TV
and therefore cannot be connected via i.LINK.
Even for the types of i.LINK device mentioned above,
device recognition, control, recording and playback
operations may not be possible on some devices.
Cautions regarding i.LINK connection
• Please use S400 type i.LINK cables.
• Some i.LINK devices may not relay data if their power
is off. In this case the device should be connected
at the end of any series of connections.
• This TV can relay data during power off, by selecting
“Active” in the “Standby Mode” option in “i.LINK
Setup”. (See Page 59.)
Materials that can be recorded with the i.LINK
Only digital programs can be recorded by i.LINK
devices connected to this TV using the i.LINK. i.LINK
recording is not compatible with analog broadcasts
or external input signals (INPUT terminals 1 through
5).
• Please do NOT use a loop connection as shown in
the diagram.
i.LINK connection
NOTE
• Please make sure the
shapes of the terminal
and the plug match,
and insert the plug into
the terminal straight,
not on an angle.
• Use either one of the
terminals. These two
terminals do not differ
in quality or function.
• When using the i.LINK, do not turn off the power of,
or pull the cable from i.LINK devices, even if that
i.LINK devices is not in use. This may affect the
picture and the sound from an i.LINK device in use.
• If devices such as a DVD recorders, digital video
cameras, computers and computer peripheral
devices which are not compatible with this TV, are
connected to the TV using i.LINK, other i.LINK
connections may be disrupted.
i.LINK device
• When device recognition, control, recording or play
back, on an i.LINK connected device does not
function correctly, correct operation may be restored
by disconnecting and reconnecting the i.LINK cable.
• When connecting multiple i.LINK devices, depending
on the specifications and the interoperability of the
connected devices, their operation may not be stable.
In that case, disconnecting all devices not in use
and changing the method of connection may result
in stable operation.
Only an i.LINK cable is
needed to connect the TV
to i.LINK devices.
(VIDEO, S-VIDEO, and
AUDIO terminals need not
be connected.)

Closed Captions and Digital Closed
Captions
• Your TV is equipped with an internal Closed Caption
decoder. It allows you to view conversations,
narration and sound effects as subtitles on your TV.
Closed Captions are available on some TV programs,
and on some VHS home video tapes, at the election
of the program provider.

Press CC.
• This will present the Closed Caption information
display.
Press CC while the Closed Caption
information is still on the screen.
• Press repeatedly until you select a closed
caption service which you prefer.
• Digital Closed Caption service is a new caption
service available only 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. When the Digital Closed Caption
service is in use, it will be indicated by appearance
of a 3-letter abbreviation that also indicates the
language of the Digital Closed Captions: ENG
(English) or SPA (Spanish) or FRA (French), or other
language codes.
• Not all programs and VHS videotapes offer closed
caption. Please look for the “N” 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.

Closed Caption
information
• Depending on the number of caption services
in the signal being received, you will see
information such as 1/2 or 1/4 displayed.
1/2 means “the first of two services”.
Example:
If a program has three services (Digital
CC(ENG), CC1 and Text1), the closed caption
display will toggle in this sequence:
1/3 ENG
2/3 CC1
3/3 Text1
OFF
• The CC button keeps a record of the last service
selected in its memory.
If the last closed caption mode (e.g. 1/3ENG)
you selected is not available for the next
program, or on another channel, the closed
caption service that is available is automatically
selected, and this service appears in
parentheses, e.g.1/3(CC1).
Closed caption services that appear in
parentheses will not be recorded in the CC
button’s memory as your last selected service.
Only services that you have selected with the
CC button are recorded.
• 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.
Examples:
In a case where there are two closed caption
services provided, for instance, Digital CC(ENG)
and CC1), and Digital CC(ENG) is displayed as
your current selection, if Digital CC(ENG) is not
broadcast for the next program, the other closed
caption service, CC1, will be displayed in
parentheses.
A closed caption service appears in parentheses
because the service you selected is not available
and a different service is displayed on your
screen. “1/1(CC1)” is displayed instead of “1/2/
ENG”.
NOTE
• See page 74 to 76 for detailed closed caption settings.
• When using Freeze functions, closed captions will not be
displayed on the right-most screen (still image).
• When the program contains no closed caption, “--”
displays in the closed caption information.
• If the language code, e.g. “ENG”, is not found on Digital
TV programs, “--” will be shown.
• Four kinds of closed caption service (CC1, CC2, Text1,
Text2) are potentially available, but a broadcast may
contain none, or only some of these services, at the
election of the program provider.

Parental control (setting V-CHIP level)
V-CHIP is an electronic filtering device built into your TV. This tool gives parents a great degree of control over
broadcasts accessed by their children. It allows parents to select programs judged suitable for child viewing
while blocking ones judged not suitable. It does so automatically once you activate the V-CHIP feature in your
Liquid Crystal Television.
“V-Chip” and “Status” will not be selectable from the menu if you do not first configure your secret
number. (See page 77 for Secret number setting for parental control.)
• The U.S. has two rating systems for viewing content: TV Parental Guidelines and movie ratings.
• The TV Parental Guidelines work in conjunction with the V-CHIP to help parents screen out inappropriate
television shows from their children.
• Movie ratings are used for original movies rated by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) as
watched on cable TV and not edited for television. The V-CHIP can also be set to block MPAA-rated movies.

Canadian Rating Systems
• The TV rating systems in Canada are based on the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC) policy on violence in television programming.
• While violence is the most important content element to be rated, the structure developed takes into
consideration other program content like language, nudity, sexuality and mature themes.
• When setting the V-CHIP on the Canadian system you can choose either the Canadian English ratings or the
Canadian French ratings.
Canadian English ratings
Rating
Description
Exempt: Includes news, sports, documentaries and other information programming; talk
shows, music videos, and variety programming.
E
Children: Intended for younger children under the age of 8 years. Pays careful attention to
themes that could threaten their sense of security and well-being.
C
Children over 8 years old: Contains no portrayal of violence as the preferred, acceptable,
or only way to resolve conflict; nor encourage children to imitate dangerous acts which
they may see on the screen.
C8e
General: Considered acceptable for all age groups. Appropriate viewing for the entire
family, contains very little violence, physical, verbal or emotional.
Age
G
Parental Guidance: Intended for a general audience, but may not be suitable for younger
children (under the age of 8) because it could contain controversial themes or issues.
PG
Over 14 Years: Could contain themes where violence is one of the dominant elements of
the storyline, but it must be integral to the development of plot or character. Language
usage could be profane and nudity present within the context of the theme.

Adults: Intended for viewers 18 years and older and might contain depictions of violence,
which while related to the development of plot, character or themes, are intended for adult
viewing. Could contain graphic language and portrayals of sex and nudity.

■ When you change your address
• If you change your address, please return the
CableCARD to your Cable Provider Company.
• You will need to request a new CableCARD from the
cable provider at your new location.
■ About EAS (Emergency Alert System)
• In the case of a national emergency, natural disaster,
or other emergency situation, Cable MSO will
broadcast an Emergency Alert Message (EAS
message). When this unit receives an EAS message,
if the level of emergency is comparatively low, an
alert text message will be displayed on screen. If
the level of emergency is high, the receiver will be
force tuned to a details channel.
• Alert text messages will be displayed, and force
tuning will occur, even during paid programming.
Even when force tuning is active, the user can still
change the channel.
• If the unit is force tuned to a channel that has been
blocked by Parental Control, the Parental Control
setting will be given priority.
NOTE
• If you have a digital cable antenna connected, you can
receive EAS messages whether CableCARD is inserted
or not.
• EAS messages may be broadcast not only via digital
cable, but also via Analog Cable or over-the-air Analog
transmission.
• When force tuning occurs, Video output from the
MONITOR OUT terminal will also be switched to the
details channel.
• An alert text message does not output from MONITOR
OUT terminal.
• While TV Guide On Screen is on display, force tuning
and alert text messages are NOT available and the
details channel will not be displayed on the full screen.
