combination antenna receives normal broadcast chan-
nels (VHF 2–13 and UHF 14–69). Your connection is
easy because there is only one 75Ω(ohm) antenna plug on
the back of your TV, and that’s where the antenna goes.

Items Included with This TV
FEATURES
Active Control™ continuously measures and corrects all incom-
ing signals to help provide the best picture quality. This feature
monitors and corrects both the sharpness control and noise
reduction control.
Audio/Video Jack Panel allows direct connections with VCRs,
DVDs, High Definition Receivers or other devices, providing
quality TV picture and sound playback.
Audio Volume Leveler (AVL) Control keeps the TV sound at
an even level. Peaks and valleys that occur during program
changes or commercial breaks are reduced, making for a more
consistent, comfortable sound.
Channel Lock allows you to block the viewing of certain chan-
nels or programs with certain ratings if you do not want your
children to view inappropriate materials.
Auto Programming scans (when activated) for all available
channels from regular antenna or cable signals and stores only
active broadcast stations in the TV’s memory.
AutoPicture™ allows you to change the picture settings (color,
tint, contrast, etc.) for various types of programming, such as
sports, movies, multimedia (games), or weak signals with the
push of one button. Selections include, Personal, Rich, Natural,
Soft, Multimedia, or Eco.
AutoSound™ allows you to change to different factory pre-
defined audio settings and a personal control that you set accord-
ing to your own preferences through the onscreen Sound menu.
The five factory-set controls (Personal, Speech, Music, Movie,
and Multimedia) enable you to tailor the TV sound so as to
enhance the particular programming you are watching.
Channel Remove allows you to delete channels from the list
stored in the TV’s memory. Channel Remove makes it easy to
limit the number of channels that are available to you when you
press the Channel (+) or (–) buttons on your remote control.
Closed Captioning allows the viewer to read TV program dia-
logue or voice conversations as onscreen text.
Dynamic Contrast helps to sharpen the picture quality by
improving the contrast between the darkest and brightest parts of
the picture.
Pixel Plus™ (or Digital Processing) gives a choice of two dif-
ferent scanning techniques – Progressive Scan or Pixel Plus.
Progressive Scan doubles the number of picture lines, elimi-
nating line flicker and providing a jitter-free picture.
Pixel Plus
™
improves the appearance of onscreen motion.
The number of picture lines are increased along with the
number of pixels per line, giving normal broadcast signals,
DVD reproduction or Digital TV signals, unparalleled sharp-
ness and depth. Gives the viewer near High Definition and
natural looking detail without the High Definition signal.
Infrared Remote Control works your TV and other remote-
controlled devices, such as VCRs, DVD players, cable convert-
ers, satellite receivers, etc.
Onscreen Menu shows helpful messages and instructions for
setting TV feature controls (can be viewed in English, French, or
Spanish).
Your new television and its packing contain materials that
can be recycled and reused. Specialized companies can recy-
cle your product to increase the amount of reusable materials
and minimize the amounts that need to be properly disposed.
Your product also uses batteries that should not be thrown
away when depleted, but should be handed in and disposed of
as small chemical waste.
When you replace your existing equipment, please find out
about the local regulations regarding disposal of your old tel-
evision, batteries, and packing materials.
END-OF-LIFE DISPOSAL

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.
A S-Video cable provides better picture
performance than regular (composite)
video connections.
S-Video cables can be used only with S-
Video-compatible accessory devices. You
must also connect the left and right audio
cables to the AV 2 Audio in jacks because
the S-Video jack carries only the picture
signal, not the sound.
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.
These connectors are usually color coded.
The jacks on your TV are also color
coded to match the colors of the connec-
tors. Yellow for video (composite) and
Red and White for the right and left audio
channels. The video cables used to con-
nect component video or RGB (high-reso-
lution) jacks are color coded red, green,
and blue.
A DVI (Digital Video) cable that will
support digital connection from a PC.
Only Single Digital Link DVI is support-
ed for PCs with 480p or 1080i output.

TROUBLESHOOTING
CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING Concerning Stationary Images on the TV
Screen:
Do not leave stationary or letterbox images on screen
for extended periods of time. This can cause uneven
picture-tube aging.
Normal use of the TV should involve the showing of pictures
that contain constantly moving and changing images that fill the
screen. Be careful not to leave nonmoving images on screen for
extended periods of time, or to display the same images on
screen too frequently, because subtle ghost images can be left
on the picture tubes. Sources of stationary images may be DVD
disks, laser disks, video games, CD-i disks, videotapes, digital
television boxes, broadcast channels, cable channels, satellite
channels, and others. Here are some examples of stationary
images (this is not an all-inclusive list; you may encounter
others in your viewing):
• DVD menus—listings of DVD disk content
• Letterbox black bars—shown at the top and bottom of the
TV screen when a wide screen (16:9) movie is viewed on a
TV with standard (4:3) aspect ratio.
• Video-game images and scoreboards
• Television station logos—present a problem if they are
bright and stationary; moving or low-contrast graphics are
less likely to cause uneven aging of the picture tube
• Stock-market tickers—presented at the bottom of the TV
screen
• Shopping channel logos and pricing displays—bright
and shown constantly or repeatedly in the same location on
the TV screen.
P
LACEMENT OF THE TV
•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.
• Be sure to allow a free flow of air to and from the perforated
back cover of the set.
CLEANING
•To avoid possible shock hazard, be sure the TV is unplugged
from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
• Regularly dust the TV with a dry, nonscratching duster to
keep the TV clean.
• When cleaning the TV, take care not to scratch or damage the
screen surface. Avoid wearing jewelry or using anything
abrasive. Do not use household cleaners. Wipe the front
screen with a clean cloth dampened with water. Use even,
easy, vertical strokes when cleaning.
• Gently wipe the cabinet surfaces with a clean cloth or sponge
dampened in a solution of cool, clear water and a mild soap
or detergent. Use a clean, dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.
• Occasionally vacuum the ventilation holes or slots in the back
cover of the set.
• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on
or near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent marring
of the cabinet finish.
No Power
• Check the TV power cord. Unplug the TV, wait 10 seconds,
then reinsert the plug into the outlet and push the POWER
button again.
• Check that the outlet is not on a wall switch.
• Be sure the fuse is not blown on the AC power strip, if one is
being used.
No Picture
• Check antenna connections. Are they properly secured to the
TV's ANT 75Ω plug?
• Check the TUNER MODE control for the correct tuner set-
ting.
•Try running the Auto Program feature to find all available
channels.
• Press the Source Select button on the remote to make sure
the correct signal source is selected (FRONT or Current
Channel).
No Sound
• Check the VOLUME buttons.
• Check the MUTE button on the remote control.
• If you’re attempting to hook up auxiliary equipment, check
the audio jack connections located on the front of the TV.
Remote Does Not Work
• Make sure the correct Mode button is being used.
• Check the batteries. If necessary, replace them with AA
Heavy Duty (Zinc Chloride) or Alkaline batteries.
Remote Does Not Work (Continued)
• Clean the remote control and the remote control sensor win-
dow on the TV.
• Check the TV power cord. Unplug the TV, wait 10 seconds,
then reinsert the plug into the outlet and push the POWER
button again.
• Be sure the fuse is not blown on the AC power strip, if one is
being used.
• Check to be sure the TV outlet is not on a wall switch.
TV Displays Wrong Channel or No Channels Above 13
• Repeat channel selection.
• Add the desired channel numbers (using the CHANNEL
EDIT control) into the TV’s memory.
• Check to be sure the TUNER MODES are set to the CABLE
option and run the Auto Program feature to find all available
channels.
TV Displays white lines in letterbox when viewing a
DVD disc
• Some DVD Discs are encoded with as much as 30% more
video information to give the best possible picture quality.
With the DVD Player in the 16:9 picture format, the play-
back of this type of disc with extra video information, can
produce a number of small white lines in the upper portion
of the black letterbox area. With some of these discs, this sit-
uation is unavoidable and it does not require a service call.
