SAFETY INFORMATION

Do not place your TV set under direct sunlight or heat.

Leave at least 15cm around each side of TV set to allow for proper ventilation.

Avoid placing you set (e.g. near the window) where it is likely to be exposed to rain or water.

No objects filled with liquids should be placed on top of the TV so as to avoid dripping or splashing of liquids on the set.

Disconnect mains plug when :

• the red light below the TV screen is flashing continuously

• a bright white line is displayed across the screen

• cleaning the TV screen (never use abrasive cleaning agents; use a slightly damp chamois leather or soft cloth)

• a lightning storm is occurring

• the set is left unattended for a prolonged period.

Never attempt to repair a defective TV yourself. Always consult a skilled service person.

Product highlights

100Hz Digital Scan

Conventional TV creates a picture by scanning 50 times per second (50Hz). This frequency can be detected by the human eye in the form of a field flickering

picture. 100Hz sets scan 100 times per second, eliminating the field flickering.

Progressive Scan

A picture frame consists of two fields: the field with

the odd lines (field A) and the field with the even lines (field B). Instead of sending field A to the screen first, followed by field B, the fields A and B are written

at one time. In one second, a full image is created using the maximum resolution. At this speed, the human eye perceives a sharper picture with no line

structure.

HDTV Monitor

HDTV Display Capability (1080i). HDTV monitors enable you to view high-definition or enhanced-definition TV programming in the 1080i or 480p signal for-

mat. In order to do so, the TV must be connected via its component video or RGB inputs to a set-top box, which is set to operate in the DTV mode. A DTV

signal must be present in your area and the set-top box must be tuned to the proper channel. An external over-the-air antenna may be required. Another

option is HDTV broadcast satellite service. Stunning realism in both picture and sound are delivered!

Saphlon™ Screen

Saphlon™ Screen technology is built with

materials and processes that deliver more brightness and picture contrast. It guards against most scratches and fingerprints and eliminates the glare associat-

ed with a separate protective screen.

Active Control

With over 3,000 picture adjustments per minute,

this 'proactive control system' continuously analyzes incoming video signal qualities for Dynamic Noise Reduction and sharpness and then automatically cor-

rects them to be like the settings you previously selected in the picture menu.

APAC

APAC is designed to minimize the effects of image retention from stationary images on the screen. Because both analog sources (cable TV and DVD) and dig-

ital sources (HD and progressive scan DVD) have different aspect ratios (4:3, 16:9, 21:9, etc.), the picture on a digital television may have black bars on the

sides or top and bottom. When black bars are detected in either the 4:3 or 16:9 viewing mode, APAC automatically shifts the television picture pixel-by-pixel,

just enough to soften image retention. APAC works in both the analog and digital modes, so it provides excellent protection.

1The major benefit of this projection tel-

evision is its large viewing screen. To

see the large screen at its best, test vari-

ous locations in the room to find the

optimal spot for viewing.

Be sure to allow a minimum of 15 cm

of space around the TV.

To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color

changes, and increased chance of set

failure, do not place the TV where tem-

peratures can become excessively

hot—for example, in direct sunlight or

near a heating appliance.

Magnetic fields, such as those of exter-

nal speakers, may cause the picture to

distort if the speakers are placed too

close to the television. Move the mag-

netic field source away from the TV

until there is no picture distortion.

2Insert the aerial plug firmly into the

ANTENNA IN 75Ωsocket at the rear

of the set.

3Insert the mains plug in the wall sock-

et. Refer to the back of the TV set for

the correct operation voltage. Consult

your local dealer if your main supply is

different. To prevent damaging the

mains (AC) cord, which could cause

hazard, do not place the TV on the

cord.

4Remove the cover of the battery com-

partment on the remote control. Insert

the two batteries supplied

(Type R6-1.5V).

The batteries supplied do not contain

the heavy metals mercury and cadmi-

um. Nevertheless, in many countries

exhausted batteries may not be dis-

posed of with your household waste.

Please check on how to dispose of

exhausted batteries according to local

regulations.

See the battery caution statement on

page 2.

Note : This remote control functions

with TVs that use the RC5 signalling

standard.

power switch on the front of the TV. If

the Standby key is lighted, press the
