The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence

of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a

risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating

and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

WARNING:

TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARDS, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

POWER CORD POLARIZATION:

PORTABLE CART WARNING

(Continued on next page)

(Continued from previous page)

14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the

product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so

as to provide some protection against voltage surges and

built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical

Code (U.S.A.), ANSI/ NFPA 70 provides information with

regard to proper grounding of the mast and supporting

structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna dis-

charge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of

antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes,

and requirements for the grounding electrode.

15. Lightning

For added protection for this product (receiver) during a

lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused

for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and

disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent

damage to the product due to lightning and power-line

surges.

16. Power Lines

An outside antenna system should not be located in the

vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or

power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or

circuits. When installing an outside antenna system,

extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such

power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

17. Overloading

Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can

result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

18. Object and Liquid Entry

Never push objects of any kind into this product through

openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or

short-out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock.

Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.

19. Servicing

Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening

or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or

other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service person-

nel.

20. Damage Requiring Service

Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing

to qualified service personnel under the following condi-

tions:

a. If the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.

b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the

product.

c. If the product has been exposed to rain or water.

d. If the product does not operate normally by following

the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that

are covered by the operating instructions as an improper

adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will

often require extensive work by a qualified technician to

restore the product to its normal operation.

e. If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been

damaged.

f. If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance.

21. Replacement Parts

When replacement parts are required, be sure the service

technician has used replacement parts specified by the man-

ufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original

part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric

shock, or other hazards.

22. Safety Check

Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product,

ask the service technician to perform safety checks to deter-

mine that the product is in proper operating condition.

23. Wall or Ceiling Mounting

The product should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as

recommended by the manufacturer.

24. Heat

The product should be situated away from heat sources such

as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products

Purchase the Optional Installer’s Remote and Clone Programmer

To preform the installation setup, you need an installer’s remote like the LP702, and the LT1500 Clone Programmer - -

both are shown and described in later sections. The installer remote allows access to the Service menus, User menus, and

Source/Channel Bank keys. The installer remote has Menu, Select, and Adjust Keys (Up/Down/Left/Right arrows) and

Source/Channel Bank Keys. The LT1500 Clone Programmer is used to duplicate a TV’s setup and install it on another TV.

sticking through the middle, and it screws onto the threaded jack on the back of your TV.

A small device that connects a two-wire 300 ohm antenna to a 75 ohm RF jack. They are usually about an inch long with two screws

on one end and a round opening with a wire sticking out on the other end.

Your Zenith TV may be connected to a Super-VHS VCR through the S-Video Input located on the connec-

tion panel on your TV. Also, you may “daisy chain” up to five TVs to one Super VHS VCR through the spe-

cial S-Video LOOP OUT connection.

Hook up your S-VHS VCR to your Zenith TV according to

the diagram below.

Remove the back of the remote and put in two AAA bat-

teries.

Plug in your TV. Do not plug it into a switched outlet.

Your Zenith TV is designed to operate on standard current,

120-volt 60 Hertz AC. Do not attempt to operate it on DC

Current.

If you wish to “daisy chain” more than one TV to receive

the S-VHS signal, you will need to make the following con-

nections with an S-Video cable, inserting one end of the

cable into the LOOP OUT port with the other end inserted

into a S-Video In port of your second Zenith TV or equiva-

lent input for any other brand of TV.

Audio Output: Use the Left and Right Audio Out jacks to

connect an external amplifier and speakers. (Refer to the

Audio Menu on page 26 for instructions on how to turn

the TV’s internal speakers off and on.)

Plug in your TV. Do not plug it into a switched outlet. Your

Presentation TV is designed to operate on standard current, 120-

volt 60 Hertz AC. Do not attempt to operate it on DC Current.

On the remote, press TV/VCR SOURCE repeatedly until

“REAR COMPUTER SVGA NTSC OUT” (Rear Computer in) is dis-

played, or “F COMPUTER SVGA” (Front Computer in) is displayed.

Boot up your computer. As it warms up, the TV will adapt to your

computer.

Hook Up a Computer to your TV

On some models, your new Zenith TV is furnished with the PCZTV scan

converter, giving you a TV-size “computer monitor.” You may use the

VGA and SVGA video format of either a PC or Macintosh 800 x 600

60Hz. And, because of multisync capability, you won’t have to change

the video settings of your computer—your TV will adapt for you! Here

is the basic setup as a monitor.

Components may vary from those in the

illustration. If you have a Macintosh, use the

2-row to 3-row DB15 adapter on their video connector.

On some notebook models you must locate the “display

toggle key” and switch the display to “external.” Refer

to the instructions for your computer.

You can also connect your computer to the Front input

jacks panel; specify F COMPUTER SVGA in the Source

menu; press TV/VCR SOURCE.

Remote Key Command Functions

Note: The following only applies to those TVs equipped with

PCZ Scan Conversion technology.

The table below illustrates the menu structure for your

Presentation TV while in Computer mode. As with the Remote

Key Command Functions, menus are operated through the

NUMBER keypad. Generally speaking, keys 4 and 6 adjust menu

options, key 8 cycles through menus and key 5 cancels all

operations no matter what menu you are adjusting. Although

menus are available in the Advanced mode, adjustments in

this mode should only be made by a qualified service represen-

tative.
