CHILD SAFETY:

It Makes A Difference How and Where You Use Your Flat Panel Display

Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new product, please keep these safety tips in mind:

THE ISSUE

The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend and larger ﬂ at panel displays

are popular purchases. However, ﬂ at panel displays are not always supported on the proper

stands or installed according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Flat panel displays that are inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks,

speakers, chests or carts may fall over and cause injury.

THIS MANUFACTURER CARES!

The consumer electronics industry is committed to making home entertainment enjoyable

and safe.

TUNE INTO SAFETY

One size does NOT ﬁ t all. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for the safe installation

and use of your ﬂ at panel display.

Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for proper use of this product.

Don’t allow children to climb on or play with furniture and television sets.

Don’t place ﬂ at panel displays on furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a chest

of drawers.

Remember that children can become excited while watching a program, especially on a

“larger than life” ﬂ at panel display. Care should be taken to place or install the display where it

cannot be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down.

Care should be taken to route all cords and cables connected to the ﬂ at panel display so that

they cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious children.

WALL MOUNTING: IF YOU DECIDE TO WALL MOUNT YOUR FLAT PANEL DISPLAY, ALWAYS:

Use a mount that has been recommended by the display manufacturer and/or listed by an independent laboratory (such

as UL, CSA, ETL).

Follow all instructions supplied by the display and wall mount manufacturers.

If you have any doubts about your ability to safely install your ﬂ at panel display, contact your retailer about professional

installation.

Make sure that the wall where you are mounting the display is appropriate. Some wall mounts are not designed to be

mounted to walls with steel studs or old cinder block construction. If you are unsure, contact a professional installer.

A minimum of two people are required for installation. Flat panel displays can be heavy.

Introduction to Connections

Experiencing HD Images

An HDTV without an HD source is just an ordinary TV.

To enjoy HD images on the TV, you should get HD programming from the following:

Over-the-air broadcasting via HD quality antenna

HD cable/satellite subscription

HD compatible external equipment

For information on updating to HD programming, ask your cable/satellite service provider.

Types of Connection

Image quality differs depending on the terminal used. To enjoy clearer images, check the output terminals of your

external equipment and use its appropriate terminals for higher quality images.

The illustrations of the terminals are for explanation purposes and may vary slightly from the actual products.

MTS/SAP stereo mode

The TV has a feature that allows reception of sound

other than the main audio for the program. This feature

is called Multi-channel Television Sound (MTS). The TV

with MTS can receive mono sound, stereo sound

and Secondary Audio Programs (SAP). The SAP

feature allows a TV station to broadcast other

information, which could be audio in another language

or something completely different like weather

information.

You can enjoy Hi-Fi stereo sound or SAP broadcasts

where available.

•

Stereo broadcasts: View programs like live sporting

events, shows and concerts in dynamic stereo sound.

Closed Captions and Digital Closed Captions

Your TV is equipped with an internal Closed Caption

decoder. It allows you to view conversations, narration

and sound effects as subtitles on your TV. Closed

Captions are available on some TV programs and on

some VHS home video tapes at the discretion of the

program provider.

Digital Closed Caption service is a new caption service

available only on digital TV programs (also at the

discretion of the service provider). It is a more ﬂ exible

system than the original Closed Caption system,

because it allows for a variety of caption sizes and font

styles. When the Digital Closed Caption service is in

use, it will be indicated by the appearance of a 3-letter

abbreviation that also indicates the language of the

Digital Closed Captions: ENG (English), SPA (Spanish),

FRA (French) or other language codes.

Not all programs and VHS videotapes offer closed

captions. Please look for the “

” symbol to ensure

that captions will be shown.

In the Closed Caption system, there can be more than

one caption service provided. Each is identiﬁ ed by its

own number. The “CC1” and “CC2” services display

subtitles of TV programs superimposed over the

program's picture.

In the Closed Caption system, the “Text1” or “Text2”

services display text that is unrelated to the program

being viewed (e.g., weather or news). These services

are also superimposed over the program currently

being viewed.

•

Depending on the number of caption services in the

signal being received, you will see information such as

1/2 or 1/4 displayed.

1/2 means “the ﬁ rst of two services”.

Example:

If a program has three services (Digital CC(ENG), CC1

and Text1), the closed caption display will toggle in this

sequence:

•

The CC button keeps a record of the last service

selected in its memory.

If the last closed caption mode (e.g. 1/3 ENG) you

selected is not available for the next program, or on

another channel, the closed caption service that is

available is automatically selected, and this service

appears in parentheses, e.g. “1/3(CC1)”.

Closed Caption services that appear in parentheses

will not be stored in the CC button's memory as your

last selected service. Only services that you have

selected with the CC button are stored.

Examples:

In a case where there are two closed caption

services provided (for instance, Digital CC(ENG)

and CC1), and Digital CC(ENG) is displayed

as your current selection, if Digital CC(ENG) is

not broadcast for the next program, the other

closed caption service, CC1, will be displayed in

parentheses.

A closed caption service appears in parentheses

because the service you selected is not available

and a different service is displayed on your screen.

“1/1(CC1)” is displayed instead of “1/2/ENG”.

•

When “Power Saving” is set to “Standard” or “Advanced”,

the Power Saving leaf icon appears on the channel

information window. See page 25 for details of Power

Saving settings.

•

See page 31 for detailed closed caption settings.

•

When the program contains no closed caption, “--”

displays in the closed caption information.

•

If the language code, e.g. “ENG”, is not found on Digital TV

programs, “--” will be shown.

•

Four kinds of closed caption service (CC1, CC2, Text1,

Text2) are potentially available, but a broadcast may

contain none or only some of these services at the

discretion of the program provider.

V-Chip

V-CHIP is an electronic ﬁ ltering device built into your

TV. This tool gives parents a great degree of control

over broadcasts accessed by their children. It allows

parents to select programs judged suitable for child

viewing while blocking ones judged not suitable. It

does so automatically once you activate the V-CHIP

feature in your TV. "V-Chip" and "Status" will not be

selectable from the menu if you do not ﬁ rst conﬁ gure

your secret number.

•

The U.S. has two rating systems for viewing content: TV

Parental Guidelines and movie ratings.

•

The TV Parental Guidelines work in conjunction with the

V-CHIP to help parents screen out inappropriate television

shows from their children.

•

Movie ratings are used for original movies rated by the

Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) as watched

on cable TV and not edited for television. The V-CHIP can

also be set to block MPAA-rated movies.

•

The setting automatically enters "Block" for any ratings

below your selection.

• Check the audio output of the connected external equipment. Is the volume too

low or muted?

• When external equipment is connected via an HDMI cable, you may need to

conﬁ gure the audio to be output through the HDMI cable.

• When audio is not output from external equipment connected to the INPUT 4 or

INPUT 6 terminal, check the "PC Audio Select" setting.

Page 41

• Even when external equipment is connected using an HDMI-certiﬁ ed cable, an audio

cable connection may be required depending on the type of equipment and the

media being played back. In this case, in addition to connecting an HDMI-certiﬁ ed

cable to the INPUT 6 (HDMI) terminal, connect a Ø 3.5 mm stereo minijack cable to

the AUDIO terminal and set "PC Audio Select" to "Input 6 (HDMI)".

Page 41

• When connecting a PC via an HDMI-certiﬁ ed cable, check the following:

- Is the audio output of the PC conﬁ gured correctly? Check the audio output

settings and output audio format in Sound Properties on the PC.

Only PCM format audio can be output. Compressed audio (with a sampling rate

of 32kHz, 44.1kHz, or 48kHz) and DTS format audio cannot be output.

- Depending on the board, only video signals may be output. In this case, in

addition to connecting an HDMI-certiﬁ ed cable to the INPUT 6 (HDMI) terminal,

connect a Ø 3.5 mm stereo minijack cable to the AUDIO terminal and set "PC

Audio Select" to "Input 6 (HDMI)".

Page 41

• If you are using a DVI-HDMI conversion cable to connect external equipment to the

TV, check the following:

- Is an audio cable connected? The DVI-HDMI conversion cable is for video only.

Connect a Ø 3.5 mm stereo mini jack cable to listen to the audio.

- Is INPUT 6 being used? When the TV is connected to another HDMI terminal, the

audio and video are not output together even if a Ø 3.5 mm stereo minijack cable

is connected to the shared AUDIO terminal for INPUT 4 and INPUT 6.

- Is "Input 4 (PC)" selected in "PC Audio Select"?

Picture quality of HD programs is

poor.

• To enjoy HD images from external equipment, you are required to set up HDMI

connection or component connection.

If the program content is not of HD quality, HD images cannot be displayed. Check

that the program you are viewing provides HD images.

The HD cable/satellite set-top box may need to be conﬁ gured to output HD images

via cable/satellite.

The cable/satellite broadcast may not support a signal resolution of 1080p.

•

The TV sometimes makes a

cracking sound.

• This is not a malfunction. This happens when the cabinet slightly expands and

contracts according to change in temperature. This does not affect the TV's

performance.

•

Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments

When the unit is used in a low temperature space (e.g. room, ofﬁ ce), the picture may leave trails or appear slightly delayed.

This is not a malfunction, and the unit will recover when the temperature returns to normal.

Do not leave the unit in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight or near a

heater, as this may cause the cabinet to deform and the Liquid Crystal panel to malfunction.
