IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
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.  
Note: CEA is the preeminent trade association promoting growth in the $161 billion U.S.  
consumer electronics industry. More than 2,200 companies enjoy the benefits of CEA  
membership, including legislative advocacy, market research, technical training and education,

AV MODE  
AUDIO  
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:

Closed Captions and Digital Closed Captions  
• The CC button keeps a record of the last service  
selected in its memory.  
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.  
If the last closed caption mode (e.g. 1/5 DTVCC) you  
selected is not available for the next program, or on  
another channel, the closed caption service that is  
available is automatically selected.  
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.  
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 DTVCC.  
Examples:  
In a case where there are two closed caption services  
provided (for instance, DTVCC and CC1), and DTVCC  
is displayed as your current selection, if DTVCC is not  
broadcast for the next program, the other closed caption  
service, CC1, will be displayed.  
Not all programs and VHS videotapes offer closed  
captions. Please look for the “N” symbol to ensure  
that captions will be shown.  
• When “Power Saving” is set to “Standard” or “Advanced”,  
the Power Saving leaf icon appears on the channel  
information window. See page 19 for details of Power  
Saving settings.  
• See page 24 for detailed closed caption settings.  
• When the program contains no closed caption, “--” displays  
in the closed caption information. (Only when receiving a  
digital broadcast.)  
• Four kinds of closed caption service (CC1, CC2, T1 (TEXT1),  
T2 (TEXT2)) are potentially available, but a broadcast  
may contain none or only some of these services at the  
discretion of the program provider.  
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.  
In the Closed Caption system, the “T1 (TEXT1)” or “T2  
(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.

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.
