MAINTENANCE

AND

TROUBLESHOOTING
TV Picture Interference

Caring For Your TV Your TV will look better, have a longer life and perform better if you care for it properly. First check tO see that the TV is off. For added safety, unplug the TV from the power outlet. Note: If you unplug your TV, you will have to reset the clock to the Current time. Picture ___k Glass Cleaning

Your TV picture may be affected by interference caused by one or a number of factors. These include: Speckled or Streaked Picture Can be caused by nearby automobile ignition, electrical appliances, etc. This is most noticeable in weak signal areas. Snow in Picture Caused by insufficient signal. Usually caused by the TV being located too far from the TV station or by an improper antenna installation. Ghosts or Reflections Caused by signals being reflected from surrounding buildings, water tanks, or other high structures. Radio Signal Police, amateur or CB radio transmitters may cause interference. These interference problems can often be corrected through the use of a better antenna, signal amplifiers, or various filter devices. See your TV dealer for additional information, and available TV accessories. VIDEO GAMES AND OTHER FIXED PATTERN DISPLAY CAUTION -- If you use your TV for video games or other fixed displays, avoid setting the BRIGHTNESS control for an excessively bright picture. A fixed display is any image which does not change frequently, suclh as a channel/network identification or other symbol that remains in the same location for long periods of time. A bright, fixed pattern, if left on for long periods of time, can result in a permanent imprint on the TV picture tube. You can reduce this possibility by alternating the use of the fixed pattern display with normal TV picture viewing, by lxlrning down the CONTRAST control for sustained fixed pattern use, and by turning offthe fixed pattern display when not in use. Record Model Number of Your TV

dust picture tube face attracts he particles and should be cleaned regularly. To clean " the face, spray a small amount ofglass cleaner on a cleaning cloth and wipe the picture tube glass face until clean. Repeat if necessary. To delay new dust accumulation, wet a soft cloth in lukewarm water in which a little fabric softener or mild dishwashing detergent has been mixed. Wring the cloth almost dry. Wipe the glass face. Make sure no drops of moisture are squeezed onto the glass. Do not wipe the glass dry. Allow the glass to air-dry before you turn the TV on again. Non-Wood Cabinet or Cabinet Components Moisten a soft cloth with a mild soap solution or mild dishwashing detergent. Wipe the surface with a damp cloth. Then rinse the cloth in clean water and wipe the surface again. Allow the TV to air-dry before turning it on. Wood Cabinets or Cabinet Components Use any good furniture cleaner and polish. Regular care will help preserve the finish. Extended Absence

Before an extended absence (such as a vacation) you may w_mt to unplug the power cord from the electrical wall outlet. This will protect the TV from possible damage from lightning or power line surges. If you have ;anoutdoor antenna, you may also want to disconnect the antenna lead-in wires on the back of the TV. Note: If you unplug your TV, you will have to reset the clock to the current time.

The model and serial numbers of your new TV are located on the back of the TV cabinet. For your future convenience and protection, we suggest that you record these numbers here:
