IMPORTANT This owner's manual is used with several different television models. Not all features (and drawings) discussed in this manual will necessarily match those found with your television set. This is normal and does not require that you contact your dealer or request service. WARNING: TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARD DO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO RAIN OR EXCESSIVE MOISTURE. MAKING BASIC TV CONNECTIONS BEST VIEWING T he major benefit of this projection television is its large viewing screen. To see this large screen at its best, test various locations in the room to find the optimal spot for viewing. NOTE: Be sure to allow a free flow of air to and from the perforated back cover of the set. To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and increased chance of set failure, do not place the TV where temperatures can become excessively hot--for example, in direct sunlight or near a heating appliance. Magnetic fields, such as those of external speakers, may cause the picture to distort if the speakers are placed too close to the television. Move the magnetic field source away from the TV until there is no picture distortion. CABLES AND CONNECTORS I f you are new to making TV hookups, you may want to read this section. (The cables and connectors discussed are not supplied with your set. You can buy them at most stores that sell audio or video products. Or call our Customer Care Center at 1-800-531-0039.) This publication provides you with examples of basic connections. See pages 6­17 in the Directions for Use manual for more information on connections, along with connection examples. A 75-ohm coaxial cable connects signals from an antenna or a cable TV company to the antenna jack on the back of the TV. Coaxial cables use "F" connectors. A two-way signal splitter enables you to take a single antenna or cable TV signal and supply it to two different inputs. A 300- to 75-ohm twin-lead adapter accepts the antenna cables (called twin-lead wires) from an antenna, allowing you to connect the antenna signal to the TV. Video and audio cables with standard RCA (phono) connectors connect the video and audio jacks of accessory devices such as VCRs and DVD players to the jacks on the TV. To simplify making connections, the connectors are usually color coded. The jacks on your TV are likewise color coded to match the colors of the connectors. The coding is as follows: yellow for video (composite) and red and white for the right and left audio channels, respectively. Use an audio cable with a white connector when making mono, or nonstereo, connections. The connectors of video cables used to connect component video or RGB (high-resolution) jacks are often color coded red, green, and blue. Component video connections provide you with the highest possible color and picture resolution. An S-Video cable connects devices such as DVD players, VCRs, or camcorders to your TV. S-Video provides better picture performance than regular (composite) video connections. S-Video cables can be used only with S-Videocompatible accessory devices. You must also connect the left and right audio cables along with SVideo because the S-Video jack carries only the picture signal, not the sound. ANTENNA OR CABLE TV Coaxial Cable Lead-in from Cable TV Company Cable TV Company T his section shows you how to make a basic TV connection using a cable TV or antenna signal. If you have cable TV service, you'll simply connect the coaxial cable lead-in from the cable TV company to your TV. If you intend to connect 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/UHF antenna or a 300- to 75-ohm adapter at most stores that sell electronics. Or you can call our Customer Care Center at 1-800-531-0039. 1 ANTENNA IN 75 AMP SWITCH EXT INT Rear of TV + _ HD INPUT-AV 5 Coaxial Cable DVI CENTER CHANNEL AMP INPUT 1 2 Connect the Cable TV or antenna signal to the ANTENNA IN 75 jack on the rear of the TV. NOTE: If you are using an antenna with a round coaxial cable (75), then you are ready to connect to the back of the TV. If your antenna has a flat, twin-lead wire (300), you must first attach the antenna wires on a 300- to 75ohm adapter. Then push the round end of the adapter onto the ANTENNA IN 75 jack on the rear of the TV. Insert the TV's power plug into the wall power outlet.
