26. WARNING:
: This TV should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking
label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local
power company . For TVs intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating
instructions.
: Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked
on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.
: If an outside
antenna or cable system is connected to the TV, be sure
the antenna or cable system is grounded to provide
some protection against voltage surges and built-up
static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA NO.70,provides information with
respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting
structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna
discharge unit , size of grounding conductors, location
of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding
electrodes, and requirements for the grounding
electrode. (Fig.A)
For added protection for this TV receiver
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 or cable system.
This will prevent damage to the TV due to lightning and power line surges.
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.
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric
shock.
Never push objects of any kind into this TV through openings as they may
touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid
of any kind into the TV.
Do not attempt to service this TV yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to
dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
When replacement parts are required, be sure that the service technician uses
replacement parts with the same characteristics as the original parts specified by the manufacturer.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, injury to persons or other hazards.
Upon completion of any service or repairs to this TV, ask the service technician to perform
routine safety checks to determine that the TV is in proper operating condition.
. The apparatus should not be exposed to any dripping or splashing, and no objects filled with liquids (such as a
vase) should be placed on the apparatus.
Plug the power cord into a power outlet where access to a power cord connector is readily
accessible, in case if the power needs to be immediately disconnected.
ATTENTION: 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 received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
3
28 CAUTION:.To reduce the risk of electric shock, the grounding of the center pin of this plug must be
maintained.

Connecting your TV
Connecting to an antenna
Caution: Do not plug in the TV until you have finished connecting all of your equipments.
To enjoy the televison programs transmitted by your local TV stations, you need an indoor or outdoor
antenna (not supplied). An outdoor antenna is necessary for perfect picture quality. If you are a
subscriber of your local CATV net, the outdoor or indoor antenna is not needed. Connect the equipments
as shown below.
Connecting to A/V equipments
To enjoy the multimedia features, you can connect your TV to A/V equipment such as DVD, Satellite
receiver, Camcorder, Audio amplifier etc., and select signal source using your remote control. Connect
audio cables to “R -AUDIO - L” on the rear of your set and the other ends to corresponding audio out
connectors on the A/V device.
1. Headphones are not included.
2. No sound will be heard from the main unit speakers when a headphone mini-plug is
connected into the headphone jack.
Connector for service only (do not connect any equipment here).
Connect Component video and audio cables to Component inputs (“PR/CR”, “PB/CB”, “Y”) on the rear of your set
and the other ends to corresponding component video out connectors on the DVR or DVD.
The Y, PB/CB and PR/CR” connectors on your component devices (DVR or DVD) are sometimes labeled Y, B-Y and
R-Y or Y, CB and CR (Colors for inputs and cables must correspond to both devices).
NOTE Some devices such as a DVD players require ’Component/YPBPR’ signal to be set via output in the devices
settings. Please consult your device user manual for instructions

Connecting HDMI
Connecting Computer
Connecting AUDIO
Connecting to a cable converter box
Supports digital connections between HDMI - enabled AV devices such as (DVRs, DVD, BluRay, HDDVD, AV receivers
and digital devices). No sound connection is needed for an HDMI to HDMI connection.
NOTE: Some devices such as a DVR or DVD players require a HDMI signal to be set via the output in the devices’
settings. Please consult your device user manual for instructions.
What is HDMI?
HDMI, or high-definition multimedia interface, is a next-generation interface that enables the transmission of digital
audio and video signals using a single cable without compression.
“Multimedia interface” is a more accurate name for it especially because it allows multiple channels of digital audio
(5.1 channels). The difference between HDMI and DVI is that the HDMI device is smaller in size, has the HDCP (High
Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) coding feature installed, and supports multi - channel digital audio.
Use the HDMI terminal for HDMI connection to a compatible device.
If your external device has DVI only, you should use a DVI-to-HDMI cable( or adapter) for the connection, and the
“R -AUDIO - L” terminal on DVI for sound output.
Connect the VGA cable to “VGA (VGA IN)” on the rear of your set and the other end to the Video Card of your
computer.
Connect the stereo audio cable to “VGA AUDIO IN” on the rear of your set and the other end to “Audio Out” of the
sound card on your computer.
This device may not be compatible with all PC video/graphic cards
Connect audio cables to “R -AUDIO - L” on the rear of your set and the other ends to corresponding audio in
connectors on the Amplifier or DVD Home Theater.
This television has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without using a cable converter box.
Some cable companies offer premium pay channels in which the signal is scrambled. Descrambling these signals for
normal viewing requires the use of a descrambler device which is generally provided by the cable company.

For subscribers to Basic Cable TV Service
For subscribers to Scrambled Cable TV Service
For Subscribers to Unscrambled Basic Cable with Scrambled Premium Channels
Note:
For basic cable service not requiring a Converter/Descrambler box, connect the CATV 75 ohm Coaxial Cable
directly into the Antenna Jack on the back of the television.
If you subscribe to a cable service which requires the use of a Converter/Descrambler box, connect the incoming
cable to the Converter/Descrambler box and connect the output of the box to the Antenna Jack on the back of
the television. Follow the connections as shown below. Set the television to the output of the
Converter/Descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the Converter/Descrambler box to select channels.
If you subscribe to a cable service in which basic cable channels are unscrambled and premium channels require
the use of a Converter/Descrambled box, you may wish to use a two-set signal splitter (sometimes referred to
as a two-set coupler) and an A/B Switch box from the cable installer or an electronics supply store. Follow the
connections shown below. With the switch in the B position, you can directly tune any unscrambled channels on
your TV. With the switch in the A position, tune your TV to the output of the Converter/Descrambler box (usually
channel 3 or 4) and use the box to tune scrambled channels.
When you use a converter box with your TV, there may be features that you cannot
program when using the remote control.
