Installation
To order accessories, call toll free 1-800-332-5368.Receiver Location
Locate for comfortable viewing. Avoid placing where sunlight or 
other bright light (including reflections) will fall on the screen. Use 
of some types of fluorescent lighting can reduce Remote Control 
transmitter range.
Adequate ventilation is essential to prevent internal component 
failure. Keep away from areas of excessive heat or moisture.
Optional External Equipment
The Video / Audio connection between components can be made 
with shielded video and audio cables. For best performance, 
antenna cables should utilize 75 Ω coaxial shielded wire. Cables 
are available from your dealer or electronic supply store. Before you 
purchase any cables, be sure you know what type of output and 
input connectors your various components require. Also determine 
the length of cable you’ll need.
For optimum quality picture
When the LCD is exposed to light from outdoors or lighting fixtures, 
high-contrast pictures may not be displayed clearly. Turn off 
florescent lamps near the LCD and place in a location not exposed 
to outdoor light.
Adjust viewing position
The LCD screen can be tilted up to 10° rearward.
The red, blue, and green dots on the screen are a characteristic of 
the LCD panel and not a malfunction. 
•  Please note that extremely high precision technology is employed to 
produce the LCD Monitor screen resulting in a 99.99 % pixel effective rate. 
This leaves only 0.01 % pixels inactive or always lit.
