• Use a soft cloth and gently wipe the surface of the display panel. Using a hard cloth may
scratch the panel surface.
• Use a soft damp cloth to gently wipe the panel when it is really dirty.
(It may scratch the panel surface when wiped strongly.)
• If the panel is dusty, use an anti-static brush, which is commercially available, to clean it.
• To protect the panel, do not use a dirty cloth, liquid cleaners or chemical cloth to clean it, such materials may damage
the panel surface.
• To clean the outer cabinet, use the same method. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
• Water and Moisture — Do not use this product near water - for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or
laundry tub; in a wet basement; or near a swimming pool; and the like.
• Stand — Do not place the product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod or table. Placing the product on an unstable base
can cause the product to fall, resulting in serious personal injuries as well as damage to the product. Use only a cart,
stand, tripod, bracket or table recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the product. When mounting the product
on a wall, be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions. Use only the mounting hardware recommended by the
manufacturer.
• Selecting the location — Select a place with no direct sunlight and good ventilation.
• Ventilation — The vents and other openings in the cabinet are designed for ventilation. Do not cover or block these vents
and openings since insufficient ventilation can cause overheating and/or shorten the life of the product. Do not place
the product on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface, since they can block ventilation openings. This product is not
designed for built-in installation; do not place the product in an enclosed place such as a bookcase or rack, unless proper
ventilation is provided or the manufacturer's instructions are followed.
• The Liquid Crystal panel used in this product is made of glass. Therefore, it can break when the product is dropped or
applied with impact. Be careful not to be injured by broken glass pieces in case the panel breaks.
• Heat — The product should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other
products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

details.
Occasionally, a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed point of blue, green or red. Please note that
this does not affect the performance of your product.
• Lightning — For added protection for this television equipment during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and
unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna. This will prevent damage to
the equipment due to lightning and power-line surges.
• Power Lines — An outside antenna system should not be located 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,
extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

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 the 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 in 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 in
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.
1.A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with an
F-type connector that can easily be attached to a terminal
without tools (commercially available).
F-type connector should be finger-
tightened only.
NOTICE
When connecting the RF cable to the TV set, do not
tighten the F-type connector with tools.

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 discretion of the
program provider.
Press CC.

Press CC while the Closed Caption information is
still on the screen.
• Press repeatedly until you select the desired closed
caption service.
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.

• Depending on the number of caption services in the

1/2 means “the first of two services”.
Example:

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.

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 stored in the CC button's memory as your last
selected service. Only services that you have selected
with the CC button are stored.
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”.
• 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.
• When the Sidebar Widget, TV+Web or Web is displayed,
Closed Captions are not available.

Canadian Rating Systems (Canadian English ratings and Canadian French ratings)
• 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.
E: Exempt: Includes news, sports, documentaries and other
information programming; talk shows, music videos, and variety
programming.
Canadian English Ratings
Example
■
C: 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.
C8+: 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.
G: General: Considered acceptable for all age groups. Appropriate
viewing for the entire family, contains very little violence, physical,
verbal or emotional.
PG: 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.

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.
Storage temperature: 4°F to 140°F ( 20°C to 60°C)
