MAINTENANCE

Early malfunctions can be prevented. Careful and regular cleaning can extend the amount of time you can enjoy your new TV. Caution: Be sure to turn the power off and unplug the power cord before you begin any cleaning.

Cleaning the Screen

Heres a great way to keep the dust off your screen for a while. Wet a soft cloth in a mixture of lukewarm water and a little fabric softener or dish washing detergent. Wring the cloth until its almost dry, and then use it to wipe the screen. Make sure the excess water is off the screen, and then let it air-dry before you turn on your TV.

Cleaning the Cabinet

To remove dirt or dust, wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Please be sure not to use a wet cloth.

Extended Absence

If you expect to leave your TV dormant for a long time (such as a vacation), its a good idea to unplug the power cord to protect against possible damage from lightning or power surges.

The table above lists the binary code which must be converted to Hexadecimal before sending. For example: The binary code to tune the sub source to an NTSC cable channel is 1000 0001, which translates to 81 in Hex. * 7th bit : For which source do you want to change the channel. * 6th bit: Use a two part or one part channel. Most cases just use 0 since its ignored when using NTSC. * 5th bit: Use 0 with NTSC since it can only use the physical channel number. Normally use 1 for ATSC since most times it doesnt matter what the physical number is. * 4th bit: Set to 0. * 3-0 bits: Choose signal type. * Tune Command Examples: 1.
