13. LIGHTNING  
To protect your unit during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the  
wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the unit due to lightning and power line  
surges.  
14. POWER LINES  
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines, 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.  
15. OVERLOADING  
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.  
16. OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY  
Do not push objects through any openings in this unit as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could  
result in fire or electric shock. Never spill or spray any type of liquid into the unit.  
17. OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING  
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the unit, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded to provide  
some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 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 elec-  
trodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.  
18. SERVICING  
Do not attempt to service this unit yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other  
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.  
19. DAMAGE REQUIRING SERVICE  
Unplug this unit from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:  
a. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.  
b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the unit.  
c. If the unit has been exposed to rain or water.  
d. If the unit does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered  
by the operating instructions, as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require  
extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the unit to its normal operation.  
e. If the unit has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.  
f. When the unit exhibits a distinct change in performance, this indicates a need for service.  
20. REPLACEMENT PARTS  
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or  
those that have the same characteristics as the original part.  
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.  
21. SAFETY CHECK  
Upon completion of any service or repairs to this unit, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to determine that the  
unit is in proper operating condition.  
22. WALL OR CEILING MOUNTING  
If mounting this unit to a wall or ceiling follow the installation recommended by the manufacturer of a mounting bracket  
specifically designed for this type of product. Use only a mounting device that can handle the weight and size of your unit.  
Should your bracket require drilling holes into this unit, this would void the manufacturers warranty.  
23. HEAT  
The product should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products (including  
amplifiers) that produce heat.  
24. 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.

ANTENNA/CATV CONNECTIONS  
Combination VHF/UHF Antenna  
This television has an extended  
tuning range and can tune most  
cable channels without using a  
cable company supplied  
Single 75 ohm Cable  
300 ohm Twin-lead Wire  
converter box. Some cable  
companies offer "premium pay  
channels" in which the signal is  
scrambled. Descrambling these  
signals for normal viewing  
requires the use of a descrambler  
device which is generally  
provided by the cable company.

NOTES:  
• If you forget or lose the password, you can cancel the existing password by the following procedure:  
- Press VOLUME button of main unit.  
- Keep pressing VOLUME button and press "0" key of remote control simultaneously for a few seconds.  
If you want to change password, follow steps 1 and 2 and select "CHANGE PASSWORD" option then enter your new password.  
• The V-Chip function is activated only on programs and tapes that have the rating signal.  
• Once you block a program using the V-Chip function, the blocked program cannot be watched based on the content of the show.  
When the program starts, the "ENTER PASSWORD" will appear on the screen. When you want to release the V-Chip temporarily,  
enter the password.  
If you change the channel or turn off the TV while the V-Chip function was temporarily released, the original setting will be resumed.  
If you return to the channel you were watching you must re-enter your password to temporarily release your V-Chip function again.  
• If you are changing channels using a VCR or a cable box, while the TV remains on channel 3 or 4, the V-Chip operates differently.  
When you enter your password to temporarily release the block on any channel, you have completely disabled the V-Chip function  
for all stations. To reset the V-Chip turn your TV off and back on.  
• Some cable boxes are built with a delay feature, in some cases it can take up to 10 seconds for a program to appear after the  
password has been input.

Captioned television programs. Closed Captioning will display text News programs will usually show three-line Closed Captions which  
scroll onto the screen. Most other shows provide two or three lined  
Captions placed near the character who is speaking so the viewer  
can follow the dialogue. Words in italics or underlined describe  
titles, words in foreign languages or words requiring emphasis.  
Words that are sung usually appear enclosed by musical notes.  
Text: The Text Closed Caption Mode will usually fill 1/2 of full  
screen with a programming schedule or other information. After  
selecting a Closed Caption Mode, it will stay in effect until it is  
changed, even if the channel is changed. If the Captions signal is  
lost due to a commercial or a break in the signal, the Captions will  
reappear when the signal is received again. If the channels are  
changed, the Captions will be delayed approximately 10 seconds.  
For television programs broadcasting with Closed Captions, look  
in your TV guide for the Closed Captions symbol (CC).  
on the screen for hearing impaired viewers or it will translate and  
display text in another language.  
TO VIEW CLOSED CAPTIONS  
Press the TV/CAP/TEXT button on the remote control to switch  
between normal TV and the two Closed Caption Modes (Captions  
and 1/2 of Full Screen Text).  
Captions: This Closed Caption Mode will display text on the  
screen in English or another language (depending on the setting  
of the Closed Captions CH. 1/2 button). Generally, Closed  
Captions in English are transmitted on Captions Channel 1 and  
Closed Captions in other languages are transmitted on Captions  
Channel 2.  
• When activating the Closed Captioned Decoder, there will be a short delay before the Closed Captioned text appears on the screen.  
• Closed Captioned text is only displayed in locations where it is available.  
• If no caption signal is received, no captions will appear, but the television will remain in the Caption Mode.  
• Misspellings or unusual characters may occasionally appear during Closed Captioning. This is normal with Closed Captioning,  
especially with live programs. This is because during live programs, captions are also entered live. These transmissions do not allow  
time for editing.  
• When Captions are being displayed, on-screen displays, such as volume and mute may not be seen or may interfere with Closed  
Captions.  
• Some cable systems and copy protection systems may interfere with the Closed Captioned signal.  
• If using an indoor antenna or if TV reception is very poor, the Closed Caption Decoder may not appear or may appear with strange  
characters or misspelled words. In this case, adjust the antenna for better reception or use an outdoor antenna.
