IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Your TV is designed and manufactured to operate within dened
design limits. Misuse may result in electric shock or re. To prevent
your TV from being damaged, the following instructions should be
observed for the installation, use, and maintenance of your TV.
Read the following safety instructions before operating your TV.

• Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance
with the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat
registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including ampliers)
that produce heat.
• Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or
grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with
one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two
blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the
third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided
plug does not t into your outlet, consult an electrician for
replacement of the obsolete outlet.
• Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched
particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
where they exit from the apparatus.
• Only use attachments/accessories specied by the
manufacturer.
• Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket,
or table specied by the manufacturer, or
sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used,
use caution when moving the cart/apparatus
combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
• Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when
unused for long periods of time.
• Refer all servicing to qualied service personnel. Servicing
is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any
way, such as the power-supply cord or plug is damaged,
liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the
apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or
moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
• Unplug the power cord before cleaning your TV.
• When moving your TV from an area of low temperature to
an area of high temperature, condensation may form in the
housing. Wait before turning on your TV to avoid causing
re, electric shock, or component damage.
• A distance of at least three feet should be maintained
between your TV and any heat source, such as a radiator,
heater, oven, amplier etc. Do not install your TV close to
smoke. Operating your TV close to smoke or moisture may
cause re or electric shock.
• Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the cabinet
are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of
your TV and to protect it from overheating, be sure these
openings are not blocked or covered. Do not place your
TV in a bookcase or cabinet unless proper ventilation is
provided.
• Never push any object into the slots and openings on your
TV cabinet. Do not place any objects on the top of your TV.
Doing so could short circuit parts causing a re or electric
shock. Never spill liquids on your TV.
• Your TV should be operated only from the type of power
source indicated on the label. If you are not sure of the type
of power supplied to your home, consult your dealer or
local power company.

installations.
• The power cord must be replaced when using dierent
voltage than the voltage specied. For more information,
contact your dealer.
• When connected to a power outlet, power is always owing

inside of your TV that may be of sucient magnitude to
constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
• Do not overload power strips and extension cords.
Overloading can result in re or electric shock.
• The wall socket should be installed near your TV and easily
accessible.
• Only power of the marked voltage can be used for your TV.
Any other voltage than the specied voltage may cause re
or electric shock.
• Do not touch the power cord during lightning. To avoid
electric shock, avoid handling the power cord during
electrical storms.
• Unplug your TV during a lightning storm or when it will not
be used for long period of time. This will protect your TV
from damage due to power surges.
• Do not attempt to repair or service your TV yourself.
Opening or removing the back cover may expose you to
high voltages, electric shock, and other hazards. If repair
is required, contact your dealer and refer all servicing to
qualied service personnel.

CHANGING THE SCREEN ASPECT RATIO
The TV can display images in ve dierent modes: Normal, Stretch,
Panoramic, Wide, and Zoom. Each mode displays the picture
dierently.
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.
To change the screen aspect ratio:
1. Press the WIDE button on the
remote.
2. Use the Arrow buttons to
highlight the aspect ratio you
wish to view and press OK.
• Normal preserves the content’s
original aspect ratio and size.
• Standard Denition (480i and
480p—old TV programs) - Since
the 4:3 aspect ratio is not large
enough to ll the TV’s screen,
black bars are added to the left
and right of the display image.
• 720p and 720i HD - Fills a 720p or 1080p screen.
• 1080p and 1080i HD - Fills a 720p or 1080p screen.
• Stretch expands a widescreen image to ll the screen from
top to bottom and stretches it half as much from right to
left. Figures appear tall and thin.
• Standard Denition - Not available.
• 720p and 720i HD - If you are watching widescreen
1.85:1 content, the image will ll the screen. With 2.35:1
widescreen content, one-sixth of the image is cut o by
the left and right sides of the screen.
• 1080p and 1080i - Not available.
• Panoramic stretches a 4:3 aspect ratio picture to the left
and right edges of the screen. The center of the image is

not stretched, but the sides of the image are extremely
stretched. If you are watching widescreen (1.85:1 or 2.35:1)
content with black bars on the top and bottom, the black
bars will still appear on the top and bottom of the display
image.
• Standard Denition (480i and 480p) - Fills the screen
from the left to right edges.
• 720p and 720i - Not available.
• 1080p and 1080i - Not available.
• Wide stretches a 4:3 aspect ratio picture to the edges of
the screen. Since the picture is being stretched, the display
image may appear distorted—gures appear short and fat.
If the program is already formatted for widescreen viewing
(1.85:1 or 2.35:1), then black bars will appear on the top
and bottom of the display image.
• Zoom expands images evenly in all directions (33% taller
and 33% wider) with black bars to t the screen. A 720p
image will ll a 1080p screen.
• Standard Denition - Not available.
• 720p and 720i HD - Fills a 1080p screen
• 1080p and 1080i - Not available.
