QUICK USE AND SETUP GUIDE
Thissection shows you how to make a basic TV connection
usinga cable TV or antenna signal.
Ifyou have cable TV service, you’ll simply connect the coaxial
cablelead-in from the cable TV company to your TV. If you intend
toconnect a VHF/UHF antenna, you may need a 300- to 75-ohm
adapter,which is not supplied with your TV.
NOTE:You should be able to buy optional accessories such as a
VHF/UHFantenna or a 300- to 75-ohm adapter at most stores
thatsell electronics. Or you can call our Customer Care Center
at1-800-531-0039.
1Connectthe Cable TV or antenna signal to the
ANTENNAIN 75Ωjack on the rear of the TV.
NOTE:If you are using an antenna with a round coaxial
cable(75Ω), then you are ready to connect to the back of
theTV. If your antenna has a flat, twin-lead wire (300Ω),
youmust first attach the antenna wires on a 300- to 75-
ohmadapter. Then push the round end of the adapter onto
theANTENNA IN 75Ωjack on the rear of the TV.
2Insertthe TV’s power plug into the wall power outlet.

NOTE:This owner's manual is used with several
different television models. Not all features(and
drawings)discussed in this manual will necessar-
ily match those found with your television set.
Thisis normal and does not require that you con-
tactyour dealer or request service.
WARNING:TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK
HAZARDDO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO
RAINOR EXCESSIVE MOISTURE.

BESTVIEWING
Themajor benefit of this projection television is its large view-
ingscreen. To see this large screenat its best, test various
locationsin the room to find the optimal spot for viewing.
NOTE:Be sure to allow a free flow of air to and from the per-
foratedback cover of the set.
Toavoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes,
andincreased chance of set failure, do not place
theTV where temperatures can become excessively
hot—forexample, in direct sunlight or near a
heatingappliance.
Magneticfields, such as those of external speak-
ers,may cause the picture to distort if the speak-
ersare placed too close to the television. Move
themagnetic field source away from the TV until
thereis no picture distortion.
CABLES AND CONNECTORS
Ifyou are new to making TV hookups, you may want to read
thissection. (The cables and connectors discussed are not sup-
pliedwith your set. You can buy them at most stores that sell
audioor video products. Or call our Customer Care Center at
1-800-531-0039.)
Thispublication provides you with examples of basic connections.
Seepages 6–17 in the Directions for Use manual for more infor-
mationon connections, along with connection examples.
A75-ohm coaxial cable connects signals
froman antenna or a cable TV company
tothe antenna jack on the back of the TV.
Coaxialcables use “F” connectors.
Atwo-waysignal splitter enables you to
takea single antenna or cable TV signal
andsupply it to two different inputs.
A300-to 75-ohm twin-lead
adapteraccepts the antenna
cables(called twin-lead wires)
froman antenna, allowing you
toconnect the antenna signal to
theTV.
Videoand audio cables
withstandard RCA
(phono)connectors con-
nectthe video and audio
jacksof accessory
devicessuch as VCRs
andDVD players to the
jackson the TV.
Tosimplify making connections, the connectors
areusually color coded. The jacks on your TV are
likewisecolor coded to match the colors of the
connectors.The coding is as follows: yellow for
video(composite) and red and white for the right
andleft audio channels, respectively. Use an audio
cablewith a white connector when making mono,
ornonstereo, connections. The connectors of
videocables used to connect component video or
RGB(high-resolution) jacks are often color coded
red,green, and blue. Component video connec-
tionsprovide you with the highest possible color
andpicture resolution.
AnS-Video cable connects
devicessuch as DVD players,
VCRs,or camcorders to your
TV.S-Video provides better picture performance
thanregular (composite) video connections.
S-Videocables can be used only with S-Video-
compatibleaccessory devices. You must also con-
nectthe left and right audio cables along with S-
Videobecause the S-Video jack carries only the
picturesignal, not the sound.
