Important Safety Information  
Always be careful when using your TV receiver. To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,  
and other injuries, keep these safety precautions in mind when installing, using, and  
maintaining your machine.  
• Read all safety and operating instructions before operating your TV.  
• Keep the safety and operating instructions for future reference.  
• Heed all warnings on the TV receiver and in the operating instructions.  
• Follow all operating and use instructions.  
• Unplug the TV receiver from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use a damp cloth; do not use  
liquid or aerosol cleaners.  
• Never add any attachments and/or equipment without approval of the manufacturer. Such  
additions can increase the risk of fire, electric shock, or other personal injury.  
• Do not use the TV receiver where contact with or immersion in water is a possibility, such as  
near bath tubs, sinks, washing machines, swimming pools, etc.  
• Do not place the TV on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or  
table where it can fall. A falling TV can cause serious injury to a  
child or adult, and serious damage to the appliance. Use only with  
a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manu-  
facturer or sold with the TV. Follow the manufacturers instruc-  
tions when mounting the unit, and use a mounting accessory rec-  
ommended by the manufacturer. Move the TV and cart with care.  
Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces can make the  
unit and cart unsteady and likely to overturn.  
• Provide ventilation for the TV receiver. The unit is designed with slots in the cabinet for ven-  
tilation to protect it from overheating. Do not block these openings with any object, and do  
not place the TV receiver on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Do not place it near a  
radiator or heat register. If you place the TV receiver on a rack or bookcase, ensure that there  
is adequate ventilation and that you’ve followed the manufacturers instructions for mount-  
ing.  
• Operate your TV receiver only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label.  
If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult your appliance dealer  
or local power company.  
• Use only a grounded or polarized outlet. For your safety, this TV is equipped with a polarized  
alternating current line plug having one blade wider than the other. This plug will fit into the  
power outlet only one way. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try  
reversing the plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact your electrician to replace your outlet.

• Protect the power cord. Power supply cords should be routed so that they won’t be walked  
on or pinched by objects placed on or against them. Pay particular attention to cords at  
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the unit.  
• Unplug the TV from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system during a  
lightning storm or when left unattended and unused for long periods of time. This will pre-  
vent damage to the unit due to lightning and power-line surges.  
• Avoid overhead power lines. An outside antenna system should not be placed in the vicinity  
of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits or where it can fall into such  
power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, be extremely careful to  
keep from touching the power lines or circuits. Contact with such lines can be fatal.  
• Do not overload the wall outlet or extension cords. Overloading can result in fire or electric  
shock.  
• Do not insert anything through the openings in the unit, where they can touch dangerous  
voltage points or damage parts. Never spill liquid of any kind on the TV.  
• Ground outdoor antennas. If an outside antenna or

• Do not attempt to service the TV yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.  
Unplug the unit from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under  
the following conditions:  
- when the power-supply cord or plug is damaged  
- if liquid has been spilled on the unit or if objects have fallen into the unit  
- if the TV has been exposed to rain or water  
- if the TV does not operate normally by following the operating instructions  
- if the TV has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged  
- when the TV exhibits a distinct change in performance  
• If you make adjustments yourself, adjust only those controls that are covered by the operat-  
ing instructions. Adjusting other controls may result in damage and will often require exten-  
sive work by a qualified technician to restore the TV to normal.  
• When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses replacement parts  
specified by the manufacturer or those that have the same characteristics as the original part.  
Unauthorized substitutions may result in additional damage to the unit.  
• Upon completion of any service or repairs to this TV, ask the service technician to  
perform safety checks to determine that the TV is in a safe operating condition.  
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the  
following two conditions:  
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and  
(2) This device must accept any interference that may cause undesired operation.  
This television receiver provides display of television closed captioning in accordance  
with §15.119 of the FCC rules.

on the VCR.  
(The VCR input jacks might be either on the front or on back of the VCR.)  
If you have a mono VCR, connect L(mono) to VCR audio out using only one audio cable.  
Refer to your VCRs instructions for more information about how to record using this kind of connection.  
Connecting a Camcorder  
The side panel jacks on your TV make it easy to connect a camcorder to your TV. They allow  
you to view the camcorder tapes without using a VCR. (Also see Viewing a VCR or  
Camcorder Tapeon page 3.17)  
1
Locate the A/V output jacks on the camcorder. They are usually found on the side or rear of the camcorder.  
2
Connect an video/audio cable between the VIDEO/AUDIO OUTPUT jack on the camcorder and the  
VIDEO/AUDIO terminals on the front of the TV.  
If you have mono camcorder, connect L(mono) to camcorder audio out using only one audio cable.

Memorizing the Channels  
Your TV can memorize and store all of the available channels for both “off-air” (antenna)  
and cable channels. After the available channels are memorized, use the CH L and  
CH M buttons to scan through the channels. This eliminates the need to change chan-  
nels by entering the channel digits. There are three steps for memorizing channels:  
selecting a broadcast source, memorizing the channels (automatic) and adding and delet-  
ing channels (manual).  
Selecting the Video Signal-source  
Before your television can begin memorizing the available channels, you must specify the  
type of signal source that is connected to the TV (i.e., an antenna or a cable system).

DVD OPERATION  
CD-R MP3 discs  
In the case of CD-R MP3 discs, please follow all the recommendations for CD-R above,  
plus the comments below:  
Your MP3 files should be ISO 9660 or JOLIET format.  
ISO 9660 format and Joliet MP3 files are compatible with Microsoft's DOS and Windows, and  
with Apple's Mac. These two formats are the most widely used.  
When naming your MP3 files do not exceed 8 characters, and place ".mp3" as the file  
extension.  
General name format of: Title.mp3. When composing your title, make sure that you use 8  
characters or less, have no spaces in the name, and avoid the use of special characters includ-  
ing: (.,/,\,=,+).  
Use a decompression transfer rate of at least 128 kb/sec (kilobytes/second) when  
recording MP3 files.  
Sound quality with MP3 files basically depends on the rate of compression/decompression  
you choose. Getting audio CD quality sound requires an analog/digital sampling rate, that is  
conversion to MP3 format, of at least 128 kb/sec and up to 160 kb/sec. However, choosing  
higher rates, like 192 kb/sec or more, only rarely give better sound quality. Conversely, files  
with sampling rates below 128 kb/sec will not be played properly.  
Do not try recording copyright protected MP3 files.  
Certain "securized" files are encrypted and code protected to prevent illegal copying. These  
TM  
files are of the following types: Windows Media (registered trade mark of Microsoft Inc) and  
M
SDMI (registered trade mark of The SDMI Foundation). You cannot copy such files.  
Your DVD player only accepts one level of file directory.  
Consequently you must choose:  
- either to save all your MP3 recording files at the root of the disc;  
- and/or create folders in the directory for each artist or music type (e.g.classical, rock, jazz,  
etc)  
• Important:  
The above recommendations cannot be taken as a guarantee that the DVD player will play  
MP3 recordings, or as an assurance of sound quality. You should note that certain technolo-  
gies and methods for MP3 file recording on CD-Rs prevent optimal playback of these files on  
your DVD player (degraded sound quality and in some cases, inability of the player to read  
the files).
