NEC - NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE "Note to CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical." 4. If an outside antenna is connected to the receiver, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal. 2 FEATURES x Trilingual SPECIFICATIONS 181 Channel Tuning System VHF Channels 2-13 UHF Channels 14-69 Cable TV (CATV) 1, 14-125 Automatic Fine Tuning VHF and Cable Channels Remote Control Numbered Channel Selection Channel Scanning Volume Mute Power Recall Display Sleep Caption Reset Menu SURROUND Input V-Guide PICTURE TUBE SIZE (Measured Diagonally) . . . . . . . . . 20-Inch Flat Screen PICTURE RESOLUTION . . . . . . . . . 260 Lines Video Input . . . . . . . . . . 400 Lines ANTENNA INPUT . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

MPAA is a voluntary rating system used by the movie industry. TV Parental Guidelines are modeled after the MPAA ratings and were designed to be simple to use, easy to understand, and easy to find. TV Parental Guidelines contain both age-based and content-based information. This gives parents discretionary ways of choosing appropriate material for their children to view. Content ratings are represented by the initials D (Suggestive Dialog), L (Adult Language), S (Sexual Situations), V (Violence), and FV (Fantasy Violence). When programming contains any or all of these conditions, these letters become part of the icon that is displayed on the TV screen. A rating icon will generally appear in the upper left hand corner of the TV screen for about fifteen seconds at the beginning of a program and should be repeated at the beginning of the second hour of a long program. It may also appear when returning from commercials. There may be other instances when these icons will be displayed as well. Parents are encouraged to become familiar with these icons and their meanings. s s Need help? Visit our Web site at www.sanyoctv.com or Call 1-800-877-5032 WHERE CAN I FIND ADVANCE NOTICE OF PROGRAM RATING Publishers of programming guides have been asked to include these ratings along with other information they publish. You can expect to find this information in newspapers, magazines, and on-screen listings and guides. C 34 TYPES OF PROGRAMS TO RECEIVE RATING The TV Parental Guidelines will apply to various types of TV programming, including: specials, mini-series, and movies. Sports and news shows will not carry the guidelines. Rating: TVPG-V 11 QuickTips s V-GUIDE OPERATION Use this feature to supervise television viewing for young children. This television can be set to automatically block programs with content you deem as inappropriate for your children to view, including: suggestive dialog, adult language, sexual situations, violence, and fantasy violence. The ability of the television to block the reception of specific programming content depends upon several conditions: 1) The program must be rated, 2) Networks must broadcast the rating code data, 3) Cable companies must transmit the rating code signal, and 4) The TV must be properly setup to decode the signal. The TV guidelines rating icon will generally appear at the upper left hand corner of your TV screen. The TV will automatically block (B) ratings above or unblock (U) ratings below selection. For example, if you block rating R, NC17 and X will be blocked as well. Blocking TVY7 does not block higher ratings. You can block a content rating such as TVPG-V and still be able to watch TVPG programs with ratings of S-L-D provided TVPG is unblocked (U). To view Blocked (B) programs, set V-GUIDE to OFF, or press the RESET key twice to clear all Blocked (B) ratings and customized settings. When in the V-Guide menu system, the VOL - / + keys allows you to navigate between the ratings and the options menu. Need help? Visit our Web site at s SETTING MPAA MOVIE RATING 1.
