ANTENNA
Unless your TV is connected to a Cable TV system or to a centralized antenna system, a good
outdoor color TV antenna is recommended for the best performance However, if you are
located in a strong signal area that is free from interference and ghost conditions (multipath),
an indoor antenna may be sufficient

Select an area where sunlight or bright indoor illumination will not fall directly on the picture
screen
Also, be sure that the location selected allows a free flow of air to and from the perforated back
cover of the set
NOTES
Never remove the back cover of the set This can expose you to very high voltage and other
hazards
If the set does not operate properly, unplug it and call your dealer or service shop
VIEWING
This color TV may be viewed from any desired distance Most viewers prefer a distance of
three to six feet or more depending on screen size for maximum eye comfort

CABLE TV (CATV) CONNECTION
A 75-ohm coaxial cable connector is built into the set for easy hookup
When connecting the 75 ohm coaxial cable to the set, screw the 75-ohm cable to the
COAXIAL CABLE CONNECTOR
Some cable TV companies offer "premium pay channels" Since the signals of these premium
pay channels are scrambled, a cable TV converter/descrambler is generally provided to the
subscriber by the cable TV company This converter/descrambler is necessary for normal
viewing of the scrambled channels (Set your TV to channel 3 or 4, as typically one of these
channels is used If this is unknown, consult your cable TV company One possible method of
utilizing the converter/descrambler provided by your cable TV company is explained below )
"A" position on the RF switch (not supplied)
You can view all unscrambled channels using the TV's channel keys
"B" position on the RF switch (not supplied)
You can view the scrambled channels via the converter/descrambler using the converter's
channel keys

ANTENNA CONNECTION
ANTENNA
The antenna requirements for good color television reception are more important than those
for black & white television reception For this reason, a good quality outdoor antenna is
strongly recommended
The following is a brief explanation of the type of connections that are provided with the various
antenna systems:
OUTDOOR ANTENNA CONNECTION
Use one of the following two diagrams if you connect an outdoor antenna
A : Using a VHF/UHF combination outdoor antenna
B : Using separate VHF and/or UHF outdoor antenna
Connect an outdoor antenna cable lead-in to the COAXIAL CABLE CONNECTOR on the rear
of the TV set
1 A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable
with F-type connector that can easily be
attached to a terminal without tools
2 A 300-ohm system is a flat "twin-lead" cable
that can be attached to a 75 ohm terminal
through a 300-75 ohm ADAPTOR

V-CHIP OPERATION
WHAT IS THE V-CHIP?
The V-CHIP is a microprocessor control circuit which recognizes TV and Motion Picture Ratings
These ratings are contained in a special electronic identification signal that is part of many television
programs and recorded videotapes
An on-screen menu allows the parent to set a secret 4-key combination ACCESS CODE and choose
which programs are suitable for viewing, and which programs should be blocked
(Please note that we have set an initial ACCESS CODE at the factory This initial code is VOL +, VOL
+, VOL + VOL +)
Once set, the television will only display those programs whose ratings fall within the standards the
parent has chosen Programs which do not fall within the standards the parent has chosen will not be
displayed unless the access code is entered
Some TV programs and movies may not be compatible with V-chip ratings
GENERAL PROCEDURE
As shipped from the factory, the V-CHIP is not operational until you perform these procedures :
Enter your 4-key ACCESS CODE to bring up the BLOCKING MENU
For initial setup, we strongly recommend that you use the factory preset ACCESS CODE of
VOL +, VOL +, VOL + VOL + Instructions on changing the ACCESS CODE are at the end of this
section
Enable Motion Picture rating and choose the Motion Picture Ratings which you wish to block
Enable TV Parental Guide Ratings and choose the TV Parental Guide Ratings which you wish to
block
IMPORTANT NOTICE - READ BEFORE PROCEEDING FURTHER
We urge you to read the entire V-CHIP section of this manual and make sure you understand it
throughly before proceeding further
Once chosen and enabled, programs whose ratings have been blocked CANNOT be viewed
unless you enter the 4 button key combination ACCESS CODE
If you forget the Access Code, the only way that you can clear the settings is by bringing the
television to an Authorized Service Center This is NOT covered under the warranty
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE INITIAL V-CHIP ACCESS CODE AS SHIPPED FROM OUR
FACTORY IS VOL +, VOL +, VOL +, VOL + (Press the VOL + button 4 times)
