IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Read before operating equipment
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Read these instructions. Keep these instructions. Heed all warnings. Follow all instructions. Do not use this apparatus near water. Clean only with a dry cloth. Do not block any of the ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and third grounding prong. The wide blade or third prong are provided for your safety. When the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped. This product may contain lead and mercury. Disposal of these materials may be regulated due to environmental considerations. For disposal or recycling information, please contact your local authorities or the Electronic Industries Alliance: www.eiae.org 16. Damage Requiring Service - The appliance should be serviced by qualified service personnel when: A. The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged; or B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the appliance; or C. The appliance has been exposed to rain; or D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in performance; or E. The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged. 17. Tilt/Stability - All televisions must comply with recommended international global safety standards for tilt and stability properties of its cabinet design. · Do not compromise these design standards by applying excessive pull force to the front, or top, of the cabinet which could ultimately overturn the product. · Also, do not endanger yourself, or children, by placing electronic equipment/toys on the top of the cabinet. Such items could unsuspectingly fall from the top of the set and cause product damage and/or personal injury. 18. Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer. 19. Power Lines - An outdoor antenna should be located away from power lines. 20. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - 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. Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, 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 connectors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and requirements for the grounding electrode. See Figure below. 21. Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through openings.

T
he major benefit of this projection television is its large viewing screen. To see this large screen at its best, test various locations in the room to find the optimum spot for viewing. Be sure to allow a free flow of air to and from the perforated back cover of the set.
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.
Magnetic fields, such as those of external speakers, may cause the picture to distort if they are placed too close to the television. Move the magnetic field source away from the TV until there is no picture distortion.
ANTENNA/CABLE TV HOOKUP
CHECK IT OUT Connect the coaxial cable/connector to the ANT(enna) A input on the back of the TV. If you're using a cable converter box, connect the OUT(put) plug from the converter to the ANT(enna) A input on the back of the TV. If the TV signal is from a 75 F-type coaxial cable/connector, then you're ready to connect it to the antenna input on the back of the TV. If you're using a cable signal with a convertor box, first connect the cable TV signal to the cable signal IN(put) plug on the converter box. Then connect from the OUT(put) on the converter box to the ANT(enna) input on the back of the TV.
T
he TV signal coming into your home may be from a Cable TV company or a combination UHF/VHF antenna. In either case, the basic connection to the TV is very easy. A Cable TV signal may use a cable box or a direct connection and can receive up to 125 channels. A UHF/VHF antenna can receive normal broadcast channels 213 for VHF and 1469 for UHF band signals. Unless your TV is connected to a cable TV system or to a centralized antenna system, a good outdoor color TV antenna is recommended for best performance. But if you are located in an area with an exceptionally good signal that is free from interference and multiple image "ghosts," an indoor antenna may be sufficient.
To set the TV to
select only the channel numbers in your area see how to "Program" or "Add" channels in memory on page 5 (Auto Program section).
If you intend to
use separate UHF and VHF antennas, you will need an optional combiner to connect to the TV. To order any optional accessory contact your dealer or call the toll-free accessory ordering number (1-800-851-8885).
Combination VHF/UHF Antenna (Outdoor or Indoor)
300 to 75 Adapter (483521827003)
Note: A 300 to 75 Adapter may be required if the UHF/VHF antenna you are using has a "twin-lead wire" instead of the single F-type 75 coaxial cable/connector.

Watch your favorite show on the main screen while displaying other programs in PIP subpictures. AutoLockTM--allows you to block the viewing of channels or programs to prevent children from viewing inappropriate materials. First-surface Mirror--eliminates light refraction, delivering virtually all of the light created in the optics bed right to the viewing screen. In concert with other advanced features in this model, your picture displays a brilliance never before possible on a screen with these dimensions. 3D Y/C Comb Filter--uses spatial and temporal filtering to eliminate cross color luminance with improved diagonal resolution. Dual Component Video Inputs--support advanced video input (such as DVD) for superb color purity, crisp color detail, and reduced color noise. Auto IntelliSenseTM Focus--automatically adjusts picture convergence at the push of a button. After reviewing a special test pattern, optical sensors send position information to the controller, which then corrects the pictures. Auto IntelliSense Focus responds to the natural and man-made magnetic field conditions where the projection TV is located, so you always enjoy the best possible picture. Illuminated Home Cinema Universal Remote Control (Remote #RC2016)--controls all features and functions of this television with direct menu access. It activates PIP and allows you to change the channels and video input source, as well as freeze, swap, and reposition the PIP subpicture. This remote also controls all important operating features and functions of virtually all infrared VCRs, DVDs, laserdisc players, satellite receivers, and on/off and channel up/down on most cable converter/decoders. Front A/V Jacks--allow quick and easy connection of external video sources (VCR, camcorder, or video games). Located behind a cover, these inputs are inconspicuous. SurfTM--simplifies going from channel to channel by storing up to 36 favorite stations in the "Favorite Channel" Surf memory. Press the SURF button to access the Favorite Channel screen, which has 6 categories with 6 channels per category. Add or delete channels from the Favorite Channel list through the on-screen display. SRS® 3D Surround Sound--fills the room with the sound and feel of a live performance.
