USEFUL INFO 
DO 
Make sure the TV is turned off when cleaning the screen. 
Dust the screen and cabinet with a soft cloth. 
Clean the screen with a soft cloth moistened with warm water and dry with a soft cloth. A mild soap may be used 
if the screen is extremely dirty. 
Place your TV and remote control away from extreme heat, humidity and extremely dusty places. 
Remove the plug from the wall outlet if your television will not be used for a long period of time, for instance, when 
you go on vacation 
DO NOT 
Do not clean your screen or cabinet with strong cleaners, polishes or a chemically treated cloth. 
Do not place rubber or vinyl products or cellophane tape on your set. 
Do not touch the screen too often. 
Do not subject the remote control to shocks such as dropping it on the floor, etc. Physical damage to the precision 
parts may result. 
Avoid placing the remote control in a high humidity place or getting it wet. Don't leave it on or near a heater. 
Excessive heat or moisture may cause the unit to cease operation. 
When the batteries run down, remote control operation will become erratic or possibly stop altogether. 
Replace the old batteries with two new "AA" size batteries. 
• IGNITION NOISE: 
Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, picture may flutter or drift.  Usually caused by interference from 
automobile ignition systems, neon lamps, electrical drills and other electrical appliances. 
• GHOSTS: 
Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths.  One is the direct path and the other is reflected 
from tall buildings, hills or some other objects.  Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve 
reception.  Ghosting may also be caused by defects in the antenna system such as unshielded leads or 
connecting several sets to the same antenna without using multiple antenna couplers. 
• SNOW: 
If your receiver is located in the fringe area of a television station where the signal is weak, your picture may be 
marred by the appearance of small dots.  When the signal is extremely weak, it may be necessary to install a 
special antenna to improve the picture.
