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

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  
servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.

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  
provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that

Remember, if this does  
not work the first time,  
repeat steps using the same remote  
code number.  
If after a second try the remote  
does not operate your accessory  
device, and there are more code  
numbers listed for your brand, use  
the next listed code number.  
Note: For TV remote’s equipped  
with a backlight option, the unit may  
“blink” or flash as the three-digit  
Direct Access code numbers are  
entered on the keypad. (Two blinks  
indicate a valid code number entry  
has been accepted; one long blink  
indicates an invalid code number or  
the thirty second time interval for  
entering code numbers has expired.)  
If after repeated attempts the code  
number method does not work  
your accessory device, try the  
"SEARCH METHOD" shown on  
the following page.

Remember, a minute or two  
can seem very long, but the  
code should be located within two  
minutes.  
Don't let the accessory device scan up  
more than five channels. The remote  
may pass up the right code and another  
two minute search cycle will have to  
be repeated.  
Note: For TV remote’s equipped  
with a backlight option, the unit may  
“blink” or flash as the remote moves  
through its product code list. Once a  
product code has been identified and  
the buttons on the remote are  
released, the unit will blink twice.  
If no channel change happens within  
two minutes, repeat steps 1-4. Should  
a channel change still not occur, the  
remote will not work with the desired  
unit.

HOW TO USE THE PICTURE-IN-PICTURE (PIP) FEATURE  
icture-in-Picture (PIP) is the  
Pshowing of two pictures on the  
TV screen at the same time. (One  
main screen picture and one small  
inset picture - or PIP). For your  
ease and convenience this TV has  
two separate inputs (ANTenna A  
and ANTenna B) for your home’s  
Antenna and/or Cable TV system  
signal.  
- PIP WINDOW -  
Display signal supplied  
primarily through ANT  
B Input on rear of TV.  
- MAIN SCREEN -  
Display signal supplied  
primarily through  
ANT A Input on rear  
of TV.  
MENU  
The ANT A input is primarily for  
the TV’s main screen picture.  
The ANT B input is provided as a  
second, dedicated source option  
for the TV’s PIP “window” and  
its feature operations. The signal  
connected to the ANT B input can  
be either a Split Signal Input (as  
described in the section on this  
page), or another type of external  
signal source (such as a satellite  
dish system, additional home  
antenna, video accessory, etc.).

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  
permanently 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.

• Check PICTURE SOURCE control for correct position ANT A or B; AUX 1/2  
VIDEO; AUX Y PB PR; or SIDE VIDEO position without a signal source will  
result in a blank screen.  
No Picture  
• Check the CLOSED CAPTIONS control. Some TEXT modes could block the screen.  
• Check the VOLUME and MUTE buttons on the TV and remote.  
• Check the TV SPEAKER NORMAL/OFF sound control for the correct position.

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.
