thoroughly wrung out, and then wipe with a soft dry cloth.
• The cabinet is primarily made of plastic. Avoid using benzene, thinner, and other solvents, as these may deform the
cabinet and cause the paint to peel off.
• Do not apply insecticides or other volatile liquids.
Also, do not allow the cabinet to remain in contact with rubber or vinyl products for a long period of time. Plasticizers
inside the plastic may cause the cabinet to deform and cause the paint to peel off.

CHILD SAFETY:
It Makes A Difference How and Where You Use Your Flat Panel Display
Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new product, please keep these safety tips in mind:
THE ISSUE
• The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend and larger flat panel displays
are popular purchases. However, flat panel displays are not always supported on the proper
stands or installed according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.
• Flat panel displays that are inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks,
speakers, chests or carts may fall over and cause injury.
THIS MANUFACTURER CARES!
• The consumer electronics industry is committed to making home entertainment enjoyable
and safe.
TUNE INTO SAFETY
• One size does NOT fit all. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for the safe installation
and use of your flat panel display.
• Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for proper use of this product.
• Don’t allow children to climb on or play with furniture and television sets.
• Don’t place flat panel displays on furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a chest
of drawers.
• Remember that children can become excited while watching a program, especially on a
“larger than life” flat panel display. Care should be taken to place or install the display where it
cannot be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down.
• Care should be taken to route all cords and cables connected to the flat panel display so that
they cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious children.
WALL MOUNTING: IF YOU DECIDE TO WALL MOUNT YOUR FLAT PANEL DISPLAY, ALWAYS:
• Use a mount that has been recommended by the display manufacturer and/or listed by an independent laboratory (such
as UL, CSA, ETL).
• Follow all instructions supplied by the display and wall mount manufacturers.
• If you have any doubts about your ability to safely install your flat panel display, contact your retailer about professional
installation.
• Make sure that the wall where you are mounting the display is appropriate. Some wall mounts are not designed to be
mounted to walls with steel studs or old cinder block construction. If you are unsure, contact a professional installer.
• A minimum of two people are required for installation. Flat panel displays can be heavy.

AV MODE gives you several viewing options to choose
from to best match the surrounding environment of the
TV, which can vary due to factors like room brightness,
type of program watched or the type of image input
from external equipment.
MTS/SAP stereo mode
■
The TV has a feature that allows reception of sound
other than the main audio for the program. This feature
is called Multi-channel Television Sound (MTS). The TV
with MTS can receive mono sound, stereo sound
and Secondary Audio Programs (SAP). The SAP
feature allows a TV station to broadcast other
information, which could be audio in another language
or something completely different like weather
information.
Press AV MODE. Current AV MODE displays.
• Press AV MODE again before the mode displayed on the
screen disappears. The mode changes as shown below:
Example:
When the input source is TV, INPUT 1, 2 or 3 terminals
You can enjoy Hi-Fi stereo sound or SAP broadcasts
where available.

events, shows and concerts in dynamic stereo sound.
• SAP broadcasts: Receive TV broadcasts in either MAIN
or SAP sound.

information
Ratings
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 discretion of the
program provider.
• 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:
Digital Closed Caption service is a new caption service
available only on digital TV programs (also at the
discretion of the service provider). It is a more flexible
system than the original Closed Caption system,
because it allows for a variety of caption sizes and font
styles. When the Digital Closed Caption service is in
use, it will be indicated by the appearance of a 3-letter
abbreviation that also indicates the language of the
Digital Closed Captions: ENG (English), SPA (Spanish),
FRA (French) or other language codes.
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. 1/3 ENG) 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 stored in the CC button's memory as your
last selected service. Only services that you have
selected with the CC button are stored.
Not all programs and VHS videotapes offer closed
captions. Please look for the “
that captions will be shown.
” symbol to ensure
N
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.
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.
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.
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”.
• When “Power Saving” is set to “Standard” or “Advanced”,
the Power Saving leaf icon appears on the channel
information window. See page 24 for details of Power
Saving settings.
• See page 30 for detailed closed caption settings.
• 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
discretion of the program provider.

• Is the room too bright? The picture may look dark in a room that is too bright.
• Power is suddenly turned off.
• Is the sleep timer set? Page 16
• Check the power control settings. Page 24
• The unit's internal temperature has increased. Remove any objects blocking vent or
clean.
• No sound
• Is connection to other components correct? Pages 11, 12, 13, 14 and 35
• Is the volume too low? Page 16
• Is "Variable" selected in "Output Select"? Page 29
• Have you pressed MUTE on the remote control unit? Page 16
• Check the audio output of the connected external equipment. Is the volume too
low or muted?
• When external equipment is connected via an HDMI cable, you may need to
configure the audio to be output through the HDMI cable.
• When audio is not output from external equipment connected to the INPUT 4 or
INPUT 6 terminal, check the "PC Audio Select" setting. Page 40
• Even when external equipment is connected using an HDMI-certified cable, an
audio cable connection may be required depending on the type of equipment and
the media being played back. In this case, in addition to connecting an HDMI-
certified cable to the INPUT 6 (HDMI) terminal, connect an audio cable to the
AUDIO terminal and set "PC Audio Select" to "Input 6 (HDMI)". Page 40
• When connecting a PC via an HDMI-certified cable, check the following:
- Is the audio output of the PC configured correctly? Check the audio output
settings and output audio format in Sound Properties on the PC.
Only PCM format audio can be output. Compressed audio (with a sampling rate
of 32kHz, 44.1kHz, or 48kHz) and DTS format audio cannot be output.
- Depending on the board, only video signals may be output. In this case, in
addition to connecting an HDMI-certified cable to the INPUT 6 (HDMI) terminal,
connect an audio cable to the AUDIO terminal and set "PC Audio Select" to "Input
6 (HDMI)". Page 40
• If you are using an HDMI-DVI conversion cable to connect external equipment to
the TV, check the following:
- Is an audio cable connected? The HDMI-DVI conversion cable is for video only.
Connect a Ø 3.5 mm stereo mini jack cable to listen to the audio.
- Is INPUT 6 being used? When the TV is connected to another HDMI terminal, the
audio and video are not output together even if a Ø 3.5 mm stereo mini jack cable
is connected to the shared AUDIO terminal for INPUT 4 and INPUT 6.
- Is "Input 4 (PC)" selected in "PC Audio Select"? Page 40

Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments
• When the unit is used in a low temperature space (e.g. room, office), the picture may leave trails or appear slightly delayed.
This is not a malfunction, and the unit will recover when the temperature returns to normal.
• Do not leave the unit in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight or near a
heater, as this may cause the cabinet to deform and the Liquid Crystal panel to malfunction.
