DEGAUSSING SYSTEM

This television has a degaussing circuit that will clear up color distortions on the TV screen that are caused by any excess magnetism which happens to get too close to the TV. This circuit is designed to operate once when the set is first plugged in. If minor color distortions are seen in some locations on the screen, please unplug the TV for approximately 15 minutes. When the TV is plugged back in, the degaussing circuit will operate once to clear up any color distortions. Repeat this procedure any time the TV screen is accidentally magnetized, or when the TV is moved or relocated.
