INTRODUCTION

WELCOME

Welcome into the family of Zenith Color Television owners.

This guide provides instructions on how to operate your new

TV. It is supplemented by a booklet containing Safety Tips.

We urge you to read these publications carefully so that you

will receive full enjoyment from your new Zenith TV for

many years to come.

Your new Zenith projection TV has been designed and built to

give you the very best in quality, features and performance.

There are many regional Zenith Authorized service centers

throughout the U.S., Canada andMexico who can attend

promptly and effectively to ordinary service needs.

i[fyou should have an unusual performance or service problem

that cannot be satisfactorily resolved by your Zenith Authorized

.,;ervicecenter, call or write:

Zenith Electronics Corporation

Customer Service Department

1000 N. Milwaut:ee Avenue

Glenview, IL 60025

Telephone: (312) 745-5152

Mon-Fri, 8:00 a.ra. - 4:30 p.m. Central Time

Send the model number, serial number, and date of purchase

or original installation, with .afull explanation of the problem

and the service history. We will welcome the opportunity to

look into your specific questior or problem and to be of assis-

tance in resolving it promptly.

The model andserial numbers of your new TV arelocated on the

back of the TV cabinet. For your future convenience and protec-

tion, we suggest that you record these numbers here:

Model No.

Serial No.

INSTALLA"i ION CONSIDERATIONS

Before you install your TV...

Ventilation -- Proper ventilation keeps your TV

running cool. Air circulates through perforations

in the back and bottom of the cabinet. Do not

block these vents or you will shorten the life of

your TV.

Power Source -- Your TV is designed to operate

on normal household current, 120 volt 60 Hertz

AC. Do not attempt to operate it on DC current.

Power Cord -- Your power cord has a polarized

plug as required by Underwriters' Laboratories. It

has one regular blade and one wide blade and fits

only one way into a standard electrical outlet. If

the blades will not enter either way, your outlet is

ve_. old and non-standard. A new outlet should be

installed by a qualified electrician.

Safe Operation -- Your TV is manufactured and

tested with your safety in mind. However, unusual

stress caused by dropping or mishandling, expo-

sure to flood, fire, rain or moisture, or accidental

spilling of liquids into the TV, can result in poten-

tial electrical shock or fire hazards. If this hap-

pens, have your TV checked by a service

technician before using it again.

Phrase read and observe each safety point in the "Safety

Tips" folder when installing and using your TV.

VIDEO GAMES AND OTHER FIXED

PATTERN DISPLAY CAUTION -- If you use ),our TV for

video games, teletext or other fi::ed displays, avoid setting the

BRIGHTNESS control for an excessively bright picture. A

bright, fixed pattern, if used for ]ong periods of time, can re-

sult in a permanent imprint on the TV picture tube. You can re-

duce this possibility by alternating the use of the fixed pattern

display with normal TV picture viewing, by turning down the

CONTRAST control for sustained fixed pattern use, and by

turning off the fixed pattern display when not in use:.

PLUGGING IN YOUR TV --- Be sure to plug your TV into

an "unswitched" AC power sou rce. The "switched" AC out-

lets found on some video equipr_ent will not continue supply-

ing power to the TV once the equipment is turned off. If the

power to the TV is interrupted_ you will have to reset the clock

in the TV to the current time.

PICTURE SCREEN CLEANING -- Use a soft cloth mois-

tened with warm water and rub lightly in the soiled areas of

the screen. DO NOT USE A T.ISSUE OR PAPER TOWEL,

AS THESE MAY DAMAGE SURFACE. Wipe only in the

vertical (up/down) direction (a]or g the grooves). If there is a

dirt buildup, a mild solution of warm water and i[vory dish-

washing detergent may be used. Use dry soft cloth to dry the

screen. Care should be taken to avoid scratches or damage to

the screen surface.

NOTE -- The TV screen is easily damaged. Avoid acciden-

tal contact with the screen.

REMOTE CONTROL MBR3455

INTRODUCTION

This multi-brand remote control operates the common features

of most, but not all, models and brands of IR (infrared) con-

lxolled TVs, VCRs, cable converters, video disc players, and

.'audioequipment. The remote may provide functions that are not

available on your equipment, eg., menu operations. Some

functions of your particular Cxluipment may not be controlled

by this remote. In such cases, use the original :remote control

for your equipment.

BATTER Y INS TA L1_4 TION

Batteries are provided, but they must be installed before using

the remote control. When it no longer functions normally, or

when it loses memory, replace the batteries with two high-

quality, alkaline, size AAA batteries. Match plus with plus (+

with +), minus with minus (- with -), as shown in the battery

compartment.

Unless your equipment responds to the factory preset codes

commonly used for Zenith products, i.e.., 101 for TV, 201 for

VCR, 353 for CABLE, and 401 for AUX., you will need to

program the remote control with the codes for your particular

equipment.

NOTES:

• Do not to place heavy objects on top of the remote control

REMOTE CONTROL MBR3455

PROGRAMMING YOUR REMOTE

If you are using Zenith products, the remote is programmed for

the most commonly used codes. For other brands -- or if your

remote fails to control your Zenith products -- you will have

to program the remote.

Follow these steps for each product you are using:

1. Look up the three-digit code for your brand (such as

Zenith) and type of equipment (such as VCR) in the

code table provided.

2. Press and hold PRG with a small blunt object until

the indicator lights (about three seconds).

3. Press TV, VCR, CABLE, or AUX to select the prod-

uct you want your remote to control. (Use CABLE

or AUX, to program your remote for a second TV or

VCR. Use AUX, to program your remote for a video

disc player or audio equipment.)

Key in the three-digiit code for your equipment,

then press ENTER. 'The indicator light should

flash, then turn off to iadicate that the code was ac-

cepted. If the indicator stays on, repeat steps 3 and

4 or try using a different code.

Write the code that operates your equipment, on the la-

bel inside the battery compartment for future refer-

ence.

To erase all code programming and return to the factory preset

codes, key in code 911 when programming the remote.

NOTES:

• If no key on your remote is pressed within 60 seconds, the

programming process stops, and you will have to start again.

• You may cancel programming at any time by pressing PRG.

SPECIAL FEATURES

Your remote can control up to seven electronic components. If

you have programmed the remote forfourcomponents using the

by HOLDING the AUX key andpressing the 1,2 or3 key during

programming. Once programmed, HOLD down theAUX key and

press 1, 2 or 3, to access the additional AUX +1, 2 or 3 mode.

Cable/Converter Volume (Code 399)

muting if awtilable on your equipment. First program your remote

with the brandcode foryour cable device usingthe CABLE or AUX

key. Then repeat the programming steps, again using the CABLE

or AUX key, but key in code 399 instead of a brand code.

To restore TV volume/mute to the CABLE or AUX mode, simply

re-enter yofir cable converter code number into that mode.

Amplifier Volume Override (Code 499)

You may use your remote to override your TV, VCR or video

disk player's volume functions with your amplifier's volume and

muting. First, program your ten:ote with the br_aldcode for the

component fi3rwhich you want amplifier volume override, using

the key for that product: TV, VCR or AUX. Then, program your

remote with r.hebrand code for your amplifier. Finally, repeat the

programming steps, using the key for the component you wish to

control (TV, VCR, or AUX), but key in code ,199 instead of a

brand code.

REMOTE CONTROL MBR3455

AUTO FIND OPTION

If you have tried all the codes listed for your brand and type of

product in the code table, and none of those codes operate your

e_luipment, you can use Auto Find to search for the code you need.

Follow these steps for each product you are using:

1. Turn the product ON and aim the remote toward it.

2. Press and hold PRG with a small blunt object until

the indicator lights (about three seconds).

3. Press the mode key on the remote for the product

remote fails to operate the functions you use most

often, yo_ can re-enter Auto Find and .,;catch for a

better code.

NOTES:

• The indicator light should t'lash OFF when you press

POWER and back ON when you release it. If the indicator

light stays on when you press POWER, Auto Find has tried

all available codes. If you finish Auto Find and the product

you want to control has not turned off, your _cemote cannot

control that product.

• Pressing PRG at any time during the use of Auto Find will

cancel Auto Find, and you wi [1have to start again.
