Setting up the television
Setting up the television
Connecting your television to AC power
Use the AC polarized cord provided for operation on AC. Insert the AC
plug into a standard 120V 60 Hz polarized AC outlet.
Notes:
Never connect the AC plug to other than the specified voltage (120V 60 Hz).
Use the attached power cord only.
If the polarized AC cord does not fit into a non-polarized AC outlet, do not
file or cut the blade. It is your responsibility to have an electrician
replace the obsolete outlet.
If you cause a static discharge when touching the television and the
television fails to work, unplug the television from the AC outlet, then
plug it back in. The television should work normally.
Installing batteries in the remote control
Before using the remote control, you must install batteries. Use two AAA
size batteries. The batteries may last about one year depending on how
much the remote control is used. For best performance, we recommend
the batteries should be replaced on a yearly basis, or when the remote
operation becomes erratic. Do not mix old and new batteries or different
types.
To install batteries in the remote control:
1 Open the battery compartment cover.
2 Install two AAA batteries.
3 Replace the battery compartment cover.
Battery precautions
Follow these precautions when using batteries in this remote control:
• Use only the size and type of batteries specified.
• Make sure to follow the correct polarity when installing the
batteries as indicated in the battery compartment. Reversed
batteries may damage the device.
• Do not mix different types of batteries together (such as alkaline
and carbon-zinc) or old batteries with fresh ones.
• If the remote is not to be used for a long period of time, remove
the batteries to prevent damage or injury from possible battery
leakage.
• Do not try to recharge batteries that are not intended to be
recharged. These batteries can overheat and rupture (follow
battery manufacturer's directions).
Connecting to an antenna
When shipped from the factory, the TV CABLE menu option is set to the
CABLE (Cable Television) mode. If you are not using Cable TV, set this
menu option to the TV position.
If you are using an indoor or outdoor antenna, follow the instructions
that correspond to your antenna system. If you are using a cable
television service, see “Connecting to cable television” on page 7.
Combination VHF/UHF antenna (single 75 ohm
cable or 300 ohm twin-lead wire)
Connecting a combination VHF/UHL antenna with a twin-lead wire:
1 Connect the 75 ohm cable from the combination VHF/UHF
antenna to the RF IN jack.
2 If your combination VHF/UHF antenna has a 300 ohm twin-lead
wire, you may need to use a 300-75 ohm matching transformer.
