not to install the TV by the hanging power and
signal cables on the back of the TV.
Do not allow an impact shock or any objects to
fall into the product, and do not drop onto the
screen with something.
CAUTION concerning the Power Cord:
It is recommend that appliances be placed
upon a dedicated circuit; that is, a single
outlet circuit which powers only that appliance
and has no additional outlets or branch
circuits. Check the specification page of this
owner's manual to be certain.
Do not connect too many appliances to the
same AC power outlet as this could result in
fire or electric shock.
Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall
outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension
cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or
cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any of
these conditions could result in electric shock
or fire. Periodically examine the cord of your
appliance, and if its appearance indicates damage
or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of
the appliance, and have the cord replaced with
an exact replacement part by an authorized
servicer. Protect the power cord from physical
or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted,
kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked
upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall
outlets, and the point where the cord exits the
appliance.
Do not make the TV with the power cord
plugged in. Do not use a damaged or loose
power cord. Be sure do grasp the plug when
unplugging the power cord. Do not pull on the
power cord to unplug the TV.

SECURING THE TV TO THE WALL TO PREVENT FALLING
WHEN THE TV IS USED ON A STAND
PREPARATION
We recommend that you set up the TV close to a wall so it cannot fall over if pushed backwards.
Additionally, we recommend that the TV be attached to a wall so it cannot be pulled in a forward direction,
potentially causing injury or damaging the product.
Caution: Please make sure that children don’t climb on or hang from the TV.
■
Insert the eye-bolts (or TV brackets and bolts) to tighten the product to the wall as shown in the picture.
*If your product has the bolts in the eye-bolts position before inserting the eye-bolts, loosen the bolts.
* Insert the eye-bolts or TV brackets/bolts and tighten them securely in the upper holes.
Secure the wall brackets with the bolts (sold separately) to the wall. Match the height of the bracket that is
mounted on the wall to the holes in the product.
Ensure the eye-bolts or brackets are tightened securely.
■
Use a sturdy rope (sold separately) to tie the product. It is safer to tie
the rope so it becomes horizontal between the wall and the product.
■
You should purchase necessary components to prevent TV from falling off of the stand.
■
Image shown may differ from your TV.
GG
Use a platform or cabinet strong enough and large enough to support the size and weight of the TV.
GG
To use the TV safely, make sure that the height of the bracket on the wall and the one on the TV are
the same.

IMAGE STICKING MINIMIZATION (ISM) METHOD
PICTURE CONTROL
A frozen still picture from a PC/video game displayed on the screen for prolonged periods can result in a ghost
image. You can use Orbiter to help prevent image sticking. The other two functions are for removing a ghost
image.
GG
An excessive ghosted image may be impossible to
clear entirely with White Wash. To return to nor-
mal viewing, press the any button.
NOTE
!
■
NNoorrmmaall
: If image sticking is never a
problem, ISM is not necessary - set to
Normal.
■
OO rrbb iitteerr
: Orbiter may help prevent
ghost images. However, it is best not to
allow any fixed image to remain on the
screen. To avoid a ghost image on the
screen, the image will move every 2 min-
utes.
■
IInnvveerrssiioonn
: Inversion will automatically
invert the plasma display panel color
every 30 minutes.
■
WWhhiittee WWaasshh
: White Wash removes
ghost images from the screen. Use spar-
ingly. Watch the TV normally for a while
before using this feature to see if the
ghost image disappears on its own.

Parental Control can be used to block specific channels, ratings and other viewing sources.
The Parental Control Function (V-Chip) is used to block program viewing based on the ratings sent by the broad-
casting station. The default setting is to allow all programs to be viewed. Viewing can be blocked by choosing the
type of the program and the categories. It is also possible to block all program viewing for a time period. To use
this function, the following must be done :
1. Set ratings and categories to be blocked.
2. Specify a password
3. Enable the lock
V-Chip rating and categories
Rating guidelines are provided by broadcasting stations. Most television programs and television movies can be
blocked by TV Rating and/or Individual Categories. Movies that have been shown at the theaters or direct-to-
video movies use the Movie Rating System

MAINTENANCE
Early malfunctions can be prevented. Careful and regular cleaning can extend the amount of time you can
enjoy your new TV.
Caution: Be sure to turn the power off and unplug the power cord before you begin any cleaning.
Cleaning the Screen
Here’s a great way to keep the dust off your screen for a while. Wet a soft cloth in a mixture of lukewarm
water and a little fabric softener or dish washing detergent. Wring the cloth until it’s almost dry, and then
use it to wipe the screen.
Make sure the excess water is off the screen, and then let it air-dry before you turn on your TV.
Cleaning the Cabinet
■
To remove dirt or dust, wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
■
Please be sure not to use a wet cloth.
Extended Absence
GG
If you expect to leave your TV dormant for a long time (such as a vacation), it’s a good idea to unplug
the power cord to protect against possible damage from lightning or power surges.

To tune channel to following physical/major/minor number.
Transmission [m][a][ ][Set ID][ ][Data00][ ][Data01]
[ ][Data02][ ][Data03][ ][Data04][ ][Data05][Cr]
Digital channels have a Physical, Major, and Minor channel
number. The Physical number is the actual digital channel
number, the Major is the number that the channel should
be mapped to, and the Minor is the sub-channel. Since
the ATSC tuner automatically maps the channel to the
Major number, the Physical number is not required when
sending a command.
Data 00: Physical Channel Number
NTSC air: 02~45, NTSC cable: 01, 0E~7D
ATSC air: 01~45, ATSC cable: 01~87
Data 01 & 02: Major Channel Number
Data 01: High byte Data 02: Low byte
Two bytes are available for the Major and Minor, nor-
mally only the second byte is used.
Data 03 & 04: Minor Channel Number
Not needed for NTSC.
APPENDIX

Data 05:
The table above lists the binary code which must be
converted to Hexadecimal before sending. For example:
The binary code to tune the sub source to an NTSC
cable channel is “1000 0001”, which translates to “81”
in Hex.
* 7th bit : For which source do you want to change the
channel.
* 6th bit: Use a two part or one part channel. Most cases
just use 0 since it’s ignored when using NTSC.
* 5th bit: Use 0 with NTSC since it can only use the phys-
ical channel number. Normally use 1 for ATSC since most
times it doesn’t matter what the physical number is.
* 4th bit: Set to 0.
* 3-0 bits: Choose signal type.
* Tune Command Examples:
1. Tune to the analog (NTSC) cable channel 35.
Data 00 = Physical of 35 = 23
Data 01 & 02 = No Major = 00 00
Data 03 & 04 = No Minor = 00 00
Data 05 = 0000 0001 in binary = 01
Total = ma 00 23 00 00 00 00 01
2. Tune to the digital (ATSC) local channel 30-3.
Data 00 = Don’t know Physical = 00
Data 01 & 02 = Major is 30 = 00 1E
Data 03 & 04 = Minor is 3 = 00 03
Data 05 = 0010 0010 in binary = 22
