To fully utilize the various features provided, such as the 2-Tuner POP System, UNIVERSAL PLUS, and some connectors for high-quality VCR/DVD playback, set up this unit properly by following the procedures below.

Universal Remote Control

The UNIVERSAL REMOTE CONTROL can be compatible with various VCR/DVD player and CATV converter brands by setting the correct control code.

UNIVERSAL PLUS

The VCR/DVD input mode is selected by pressing the VCR/DVD player PLAY button on the UNIVERSAL REMOTE CONTROL.

To use this UNIVERSAL PLUS function, the settings on page 49 must be set in advance.

Antennas

The antenna requirements for good color Rear Projection TV reception are more important than those for black & white television reception. For this reason, a good quality outdoor antenna is strongly recommended.

Type of connector

1. The 75 ohm system generally uses a round cable with an

F-type connector

Switching between ANTENNA-A and ANTENNA-B is possible by pressing the ANT-A/B button on the remote control.

A good color picture depends on a good TV signal, and so does good multi-channel sound. Ask your dealer for advice on how to install your external antenna to receive the best possible signal.

If you subscribe to Cable TV or have a central antenna in your building, you may not need an external antenna.
