Position the TV

Warning

•Do not insert the power plug into the wall socket before all the connections are made.

•Large screen TVs are heavy. Two people are required to carry and handle a large screen TV.

•Before you move the TV, disconnect the cables to prevent breakage.

In addition to reading and understanding the safety instructions, consider the following before positioning your TV:

•Ensure that you always have easy access to the power cord or plug to disconnect the TV from the power.

•If the TV is mounted on a swivel base, ensure that no strain is placed on the power cord when the TV is swiveled. Strain on the power cord can loosen connections.

•The ideal viewing distance for watching TV is three times its screen size.

•Position the TV where light does not fall on the screen.

•Connect your devices before you position the TV.

Use a Kensington lock

There is a Kensington security slot on the back of the TV. Prevent theft by looping a Kensington lock between the slot and a permanent object, such as a heavy table.

Connect the antenna or cable

Cable

Connect to an antenna

Any DTV programs that are broadcast in your area can be received for free through an antenna connection.

Contact your local content provider or your local electronics retailer if you are unsure about what HDTV programs are available in your area. Broadcasters are transitioning from analog to digital TV.This means that a given broadcaster can have channels available either in analog or in digital, or both analog and digital at the same time.

The TV produces stereo sound only if a stereo signal is broadcast.

Connect to a cable

When your TV is connected to the cable socket, you might receive free digital and high definition programs (depending on your cable provider). The channel number for digital and high definition channels includes a dot “.” For example, 11.1, 46.30, 108.201. Contact your cable provider for more information.

Connect to a Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS)

There are two main DBS systems: DirecTV and DishNetwork.These systems require a separate, proprietary set-top box to decode signals and send them to the TV.The set-top box contains a digital TV tuner for receiving off-air digital broadcasts.
