Lightning Protection  
TELEVISION ANTENNA CONNECTION  
PROTECTION  
For added protection of the TV during a lightning storm or when it  
is left unattended or unused for long periods of time, unplug the TV  
from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system.  
If an outside antenna/satellite dish or cable system is to be  
connected to the TV, make sure that the antenna or cable system  
is electrically grounded to provide some protection against voltage  
surges and static charges.  
Power Lines  
Do not locate the antenna near overhead light or power circuits, or  
where it could fall into such power lines or circuits. Remember, the  
screen of the coaxial cable is intended to be connected to earth in  
the building installation.  
Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPSA 70, provides  
information with regard to proper grounding of the mast and  
supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna  
discharge unit, size of the grounding conductors, location of  
antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and  
requirements of the grounding electrode.

Adjusting the Color Calibration Settings  
Reset Color Tuner - Resets the color tuner settings for the  
current color temperature mode.  
Color Calibration Settings allow you to make precise adjustments to  
the picture and to create picture modes to save groups of picture  
settings.  
If the current picture mode is a pre-set, the color  
temperature is reset for all pre-set picture modes using  
the current color temperature mode. It does not affect  
saved custom picture modes.  
If the current picture mode is a saved custom picture  
mode, the color temperature only reset for that custom  
picture modes. It does not affect pre-set picture modes  
or other custom picture modes.  
The Color Tuner, 11 Point White Balance, and test  
patterns allow technicians to manually calibrate the TV.  
Calibration requires specialized training, an input with  
precisely set colors, and a specialized light meter.  
To adjust the color calibration picture settings:  
For example, suppose that:  
You have created two custom picture modes: “My Picture  
Settings” and “Oliver.” They both use the Normal color  
temperature, but you have adjusted it for each of the  
modes.  
1. From the PICTURE menu, use

—and—  
You have changed the Color Tuner settings for the  
Normal color temperature while in the Calibrated picture  
mode.  
Reset Color Tuner  
2. Use the Arrow buttons to  
highlight the setting you wish to  
adjust, then press the OK button  
to change the setting:  
So, you have “My Picture Settings” with a modified Normal  
color temperature, “Oliver” with different changes to the  
Normal color temperature, and a third set of changes to the  
Normal color temperature that applies to all of the pre-set  
picture modes.  
The Calibrated and Calibrated Dark picture modes both use  
the Normal color temperature. If Calibrated is the current  
picture mode when the Normal color temperature is reset,  
the change affects both of these picture modes, but does  
not undo the changes to the color temperature for the “My  
Picture Settings” or “Oliver” custom picture modes.  
If “My Picture Settings" is the current picture mode when  
the Normal color temperature is reset, the change only  
affects the “My Picture Settings” picture mode. The color  
temperature changes to the “Oliver,” Calibrated, and  
Calibrated Dark picture modes stay as they are.

The TV has pixels (dots) that are always dark.  
There is no sound.  
Your HDTV is precision-manufactured using an extremely  
high level of technology. However, sometimes pixels may  
not display correctly. These types of occurrences are  
inherent to this type of product and do not constitute a  
defective product.  
Press Volume Up on the remote control.  
Press the MUTE button on the remote to ensure mute is off.  
Check the audio settings. See Adjusting the Audio Settings  
Ensure no headphones are connected to the TV.  
Check the audio connections of external devices (Blu-ray  
player, game console, cable/satellite box) that are  
connected to the TV.  
If you are using an antenna, the signal strength of the  
channel may be low. Ensure your antenna is connected  
securely to the TV and move the antenna around the room  
or close to a window for the best signal.  
The display image does not cover the entire screen.  
Some programs have black bars on the top or sides of  
the picture so that the picture keeps its original shape.  
Examples include wide-screen movies and older television  
programs.  
Press the WIDE button on the remote to change the width  
Adjust the video settings of the device that is the source of  
the video (Blu-ray player, DVD player, cable or satellite box,  
etc.).

The TV remembers the volume level on each input source. If  
the volume level on the new input source is higher or lower  
than the level on the source you switch from, the difference  
may be noticeable.  
Use the Volume Up/Down buttons on the remote to adjust  
the volume.  
When I change input source, the display image changes size.  
The TV remembers the viewing mode on each input source.  
If the viewing mode on the new input source differs from  
the one on the input source you switch from, the difference  
may be noticeable.
