Contact a qualified service department in your local area. Do not expose the TV set to rain or excessive moisture. Avoid using the set in very warm or damp places and never use it in a bathroom. When cleaning dust off the picture tube disconnect the power first. You can wipe lightly with a piece of dry, clean and soft cloth. Avoid exposing the set to direct sunlight and other sources of heat to prevent damage to the cabinet and components. High voltage exists in this TV set. Do not remove the cover. 2 Safety precautions Do not cover the ventilating hole in the cabinet Keep a space of more than 10cm from the walls to the TV set to ensure adequate ventilation. If the power cord or the plug is damaged contact a qualified service department for service. When the TV set is to be left unattended for a long period of time, turn off the power supply and remove the plug from the wall outlet. Don't try to push anything into the cabinet or place any vessel with water on the TV set. Don't overload wall outlets; extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock. 3 Identification of Controls Front Indicator Indicator Power Switch MENU AV/TV CH- CH+ VOL- VOL+ Remote Sensor Back Antenna input AV1 output (VIDEO, AUDIO (L, R)) AV1 input (VIDEO, AUDIO (L/MONO, R)) 4 DVD input (VIDEO, Y,Cb,Cr, AUDIO: L/MONO, R) AV2 input (VIDEO, AUDIO (L/MONO, R)) Identification of Controls Remote controller Real clock (teletext) Power on/standby Hold (teletext) Reveal/conceal (teletext) Size (teletext) Mix (teletext) ?

The exact type and position of the aerial will depend upon your particular area. RF Notes: It is recommended that the 75-ohm coaxial cable be used to eliminate interference and noise which may occur due to radio wave conditions. The aerial cable should not be bundled with the power cord and the like. INSTALL the unit in a room where direct light will not fall upon the screen. Total darkness or a reflection on the picture screen may cause eyestrain. Soft and indirect lighting is recommended for comfortable viewing. 6 Installation Installing batteries Effective range of the Remote Open the battery cover.
