FCC Information
FCC Regulations state that unauthorized changes or
modifications to this equipment may void the
user's authority to operate it.
This equipment has been type tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class B Digital Device
in accordance with the specifications in Part 15 of
the FCC rules. These rules are designed to provide
reasonable protection against radio and television
interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates and can radiate radio
frequency and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause interference to the
radio or television reception (which you can
determine by turning the equipment off and on), try
to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna (that
is, the antenna for the radio or television that is
"receiving" the interference).
Change the position of the Cinema Screen
display with respect to the radio or television
equipment that is receiving the interference.
Move the Cinema Screen display away from
the equipment receiving the interference.
Plug the Cinema Screen display into a different
wall outlet so the receiver and the equipment
are on different branch circuits.
If these measures do not eliminate interference,
please consult your dealer or an experienced radio/
television technician for additional suggestions.
Also, the Federal Communications Commission has
prepared a helpful booklet, "How to Identify and
Resolve Radio/TV Interference Problems." This
booklet is available from the U.S. Government
Printing Office, Washington D.C., 20402. Please
specify stock number 004-000-00345-4 when
ordering copies.

WARNINGS AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The Cinema Screen monitor is designed and manufactured
to provide long, trouble-free service. No maintenance other
than cleaning is required. Use a soft dry cloth to clean the
panel. Never use solvents such as alcohol or thinner to
clean the panel surface.
The Cinema Screen display panel consists of fine picture
elements (cells). Although the Cinema Screen display
panels are produced with more than 99.99 percent active
cells, there may be some cells that do not produce light or
remain lit.
For operating safety and to avoid damage to the unit, read
carefully and observe the following instructions.
To avoid shock and fire hazards:
1. Provide adequate space for ventilation to avoid internal
heat build-up. Do not cover rear vents or install in a
closed cabinet or shelves.
The unit is equipped with cooling fans. If you install
the unit in an enclosure, be sure there is adequate
space at the top of the unit to allow hot air to rise and
escape.
If the monitor becomes too hot, the overheat protector
will be activated and the monitor will be turned off. If
this happens, turn off the power to the monitor and un-
plug the power cord. If the room where the monitor is
installed is particularly hot, move the monitor to a
cooler location, and wait for the monitor to cool for 60
minutes.
If the problem persists, contact your Cinema Screen
dealer for service.
2. Do not use the power cord plug with extension cords
or outlets unless all prongs can be completely inserted.
3. Do not expose unit to water or moisture.
4. Avoid damage to the power cord, and do not attempt
to modify the power cord.
5. Unplug unit during electrical storms or if unit will not
be used over a long period.
6. Do not open the unit which has potentially dangerous
high voltage components inside. If the unit is damaged
from opening the cabinet the warranty will be void.
Moreover, there is a serious risk of electric shock.
7. Do not attempt to service or repair the unit. TCE is not
liable for any bodily harm or damage caused if
unqualified persons attempt service or open the back
cover. Refer all service to authorized Cinema Screen
Service Centers.
IMPORTANTTIPS: CARING FoRYouR
CINEMA SCREEN MONITOR
To AVOID DAMAGE AND PROLONG OPERATING LIFE:
1, Use only with 120V 50/60Hz AC power supply.
Continued operation at line voltages greater than 120
Volts AC will shorten the life of the unit, and might
cause a fire hazard.
2. Handle the unit carefully when installing it.
3. Locate set away from heat, excessive dust, and direct
sunlight.
4. Protect the inside of the unit from liquids and small
metal objects. In case of accident, unplug the unit and
have it serviced by an authorized service center.
5. Do not hit or scratch the panel surface as this causes
flaws on the surface of the screen.
6. For correct installation and mounting it is strongly
recommended to use a trained, authorized Cinema
Screen dealer.
7, Like all phosphor-based display devices, Cinema
Screen monitors can be susceptible to uneven
phosphor aging under certain circumstances. Certain
operating conditions, such as the continuous display of
a static image over a prolonged period of time, can
result in uneven phosphor aging if proper precautions
are not taken. To protect your investment in this Cinema
Screen monitor, please adhere to the following
guidelines and recommendations for minimizing the
occurrence of uneven phosphor aging:
Always enable and use your computer's screen saver
function during use with a computer input source.
Display a moving image whenever possible.
Always power down the monitor when you are
finished using it.
If viewing with a 4/3 aspect ratio for long periods of
time, set side gray level at 3 or 4.
IF THE CINEMA SCREEN MONITOR IS IN LONG TERM
USE OR CONTINUOUS OPERATION TAKE THE
FOLLOWING MEASURES TO REDUCE THE LIKELIHOOD
OF UNEVEN PHOSPHOR AGING:
Lower the BRIGHTNESS and CONTRAST levels as
much as possible without impairing image readability,
Display an image with many colors and color
gradations (i.e. photographic or photo-realistic images).
Create image content with minimal contrast between
light and dark areas (for example, white characters on
black backgrounds). Use complementary or pastel
color whenever possible.
Avoid displaying images with few colors and distinct,
sharply defined borders between colors.

USINGYOUR REMOTE CONTROL
INSERTING BATTERIES
1. Remove the battery compartment cover from the remote control.
2. Insert batteries (included) as shown on the diagram inside the
battery compartment.
3. Replace the battery compartment cover.
Use your remote control from a distance of about 7m/23 feet from the
monitor's remote control sensor and at a horizontal angle of within
30 °. The remote operates on line of sight, so if there is anything
blocking the path between the remote and the remote control sensor
on the front of the monitor, the remote may not work.
Don't expose the remote control sensor on the front of the monitor
to direct sunlight or strong artificial light.
Don't get the remote control wet.
Avoid heat and humidity.
When not using the remote for a long period of time, remove the
batteries.
Installing the batteries
PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE
The universal remote control that came with your Cinema Screen
monitor is already programmed to operate most RCA, GE, and
PROSCAN VCRs, DVD players, laserdisc players, and satellite
receivers. This remote is also capable of operating many other brands
of remote-controllable electronic components, but you must program
it to do so.
FIND OUT IFYOU NEED TO PROGRAM THE REMOTE
To determine whether the universal remote needs to be programmed,
turn on one of your components, such as a VCR. Point the remote
control at the component and press the component button (for
example, the VCR button). Now press the ON-OFF button on the
remote. If the component doesn't turn off, you need to program the
remote control in order for it to operate that component.

SETUP AND CONNECTIONS
How TO PROGRAM THE REMOTE
There are two ways to program the remote control: automatic code search
and direct entry.
USING AUTOMATIC CODE SEARCH
1. Turn on the component you want the remote to operate (VCR, H D
receiver, etc.)
2, Press and hold the component button that corresponds to the

While you hold down the component button, press and hold ON.OFF
(when the red light on the remote turns on, release both buttons).
3. Press PLAY (the red light on the remote starts flashing).
The remote is searching the first set of component codes (there are
several sets of codes). If the component you want to operate doesn't
turn off automatically after 5 seconds, press PLAY again (the red light
starts flashing again as the remote searches through the next set of
codes).
Continue pressing PLAY until the component turns off.
NOTE: If the component doesn't turn off after you've pressed the PLAY
button 20 times, the component can't be programmed.
4. Press REVERSE and wait 2 seconds. Repeat this step until the
component turns back on.
5. To finish, press and hold the STOP button until the red light on the
remote turns off.
