3. Select and prepare the installation location

In order to prevent potential dangers and prolong the service life of the TV,

please observe the following points when installing, operating and cleaning

the TV.

Do NOT place the TV on an

uneven, sloping or unstable

surface where it may fall and cause

damage to itself or others. Have a

qualified technician secure the TV

in case there is an earthquake.

Do NOT place the TV in an

enclosed place without allowing

for ventilation.

Observe all warnings and cautions

as labelled on the TV.

Do NOT place the TV near water,

like a spa or pool, or in a position

which will allow the splashing or

spraying of water onto the TV, like

in front of an open window where

rain water may enter.

Do NOT cover or block the vents

and openings while the TV is

switched on, as the heat may

accumulate inside the TV and

result in danger.

Do NOT place the TV near or

above sources of heat, such as

radiators, heaters, fuel stoves and

other heat-generating items

(including audio amplifiers).

Otherwise heat may cause

damages to the outer casing as well

as the components inside.

Do NOT place the TV in direct

sun or where direct sun or spot

lighting will shine onto the TV, as

the heat may damage the TV and

the bright light will make viewing

the TV more difficult than

necessary.

If wall mounting, allow

appropriate space on top for

attaching the TV to the wall

bracket.

If recessed into a wall opening, you

must leave appropriate free space

both top and bottom for

mounting and removing the TV.

If wall mounting, disconnect all

cables and have a suitable qualified

and experienced technician mount

it safely. Use only a recommended

TV wall bracket for this model TV

and ensure that the mounting

brackets (optional accessory) are

securely screw fixed to the wall

structure, and not just the wall

render, lining or cladding. Ensure

the brackets are level horizontally.

Do not glue the brackets to the

wall.

This TV has no power switch.

When installing the TV,

incorporate a readily accessible

disconnect device in the fixed

wiring, or connect the power cord

to socket-outlet which must be

provided near the TV and easily

accessible. If a fault should occur

during operation of the unit,

operate the disconnect device to

switch the power supply off, or

disconnect the power cord.

Depending upon your location, for best TV signal reception, you should have a

properly aligned outdoor TV antenna system. If need be, consult a professional

antenna specialist.

• This TV has a built-in analog TV tuner, which requires the TV antenna cable

connection to an external TV antenna system or CATV decoder. If you wish to

make use of the digital LCD screen to view digital TV, you should connect an

external digital TV tuner (decoder) set top box (STB) to the TV using a digital

signal cable (HDMI or DVI) connection.

6. Connect the power cord

1. Locate the power cord from the packaging, and plug the appropriate end

into the AC-INLET socket on the rear of the TV (as illustrated below).

2. Plug the other end into an appropriate wall power outlet, and turn on the

switch (if the power outlet is switched). The TV will enter standby mode

and the power indicator (on the front lower right) will light up red.

4. After the shaft is completely

inserted, turn the TV so it faces

Remote control usage tips

• Do not cover the sensor window on the front of the TV (below the power

indicator lamp), or place objects in front of it which will block the direct line-

of-sight between the remote control and the sensor window on TV.

• Do not let the remote control become wet, or place it in humid environments

(like bathrooms.)

• If the remote control sensor window on the TV is in direct sunlight or strong

light, the remote control may not operate properly. In this situation, change the

light source or readjust the angle of your TV, or operate the remote control from

a location closer to the remote control sensor window on the TV.

Test the remote control

• Point and aim the top front of the

remote control directly at the TV

when pressing the buttons.

• The remote control must be held at

an angle within 30 degrees of the TV's

remote control sensor window to

function correctly. The distance

between the remote control and the

sensors should not exceed 6 meters. 30 degrees

6 meters

Press (Power/standby) on the remote control (as

highlighted in the illustration). The TV should turn on, and

the power indicator change to green. If so, progress to the next

step ("9. Initialize your TV" on page 8).

If the TV does not turn on, first check that the power is

available (the power indicator will be lit red). If so, try pressing

(Power/standby) on the right side of the TV. If the TV

turns on by this method, the problem lies with the remote

control. In that case, check that the remote control batteries

are properly installed. If need be, replace the batteries with

new ones or known good ones.

To put the TV to standby mode, press (Power/standby) on

the remote control, or (Power/standby) on the right side of

Introduction

This booklet is divided into two sections: the Quick Start Guide; and the User

Manual. For details of the Quick Start Guide, see "1. Please read these

instructions" on page 2.

This is section 2, the User Manual which describes how to customize the TV

settings so that you can gain the best viewing experience possible to suit your

preferences and viewing environment. This section details the features and

functions of the TV and the remote control, describes how to connect to

other devices, and provides product specifications and troubleshooting

information for your further assistance.

Getting to know your TV

This LCD TV is a state-of-the-art flat widescreen digital display device. It has a

built-in analog TV tuner which can be used to view standard definition analog

television (TV or ATV), cable television (CATV), or radio frequency (RF)

modulated video through its coaxial TV tuner input socket.

However, the high display quality of a widescreen LCD TV isn’t realized

through analog TV. The highest possible quality display is only possible from

high definition digital video sources like High Definition TV (HDTV) and

High Definition DVD (HD-DVD).

Input options

This TV supports the simultaneous connection of several different types of

TV, Video and Graphic sources, and permits you to select available sources

you wish to view at any time. You can press INPUT on the remote control

or INPUT on the TV to select an input source.

There are multiple sockets on the TV for analog TV, Video, and Graphic

inputs (see also "External AV devices terminal panel (left side view)" on page

15 and "Rear view" on page 16):

• Analog TV source input includes: 1 × Coaxial analog TV antenna.

• Video source inputs include: 1 × S-Video, 1 × Composite Video (AV) and 1 ×

Component Video.

• Graphic source inputs include: 1 × HDMI/DVI and 1 × PC D-Sub.

You should connect whichever TV, Video or Graphic sources you wish to view

on the TV. You need not connect more than one if that one is all you wish to

view.

The simultaneous display of multiple pictures from different signal sources on

the screen (for example, the picture-in-picture function) is not supported.

Analog TV source inputs

You can connect an aerial VHF or UHF TV antenna (if available) to the TV

RF input socket using an appropriate TV coaxial cable, and select the ATV

input to view analog TV broadcasts.

If you have cable TV, you can connect your cable TV decoder box to the TV

RF input socket using an appropriate TV coaxial cable, and select the ATV

input to view cable TV.

See "5. Connect the antenna cable" on page 5.

V32B_V37B_EN.book Page 12 Wednesday, January 23, 2008 10:55 AM

Introduction 13

English

Video source inputs

You can connect an external analog video device (like a VCR or TV game

console) to the TV’s Composite Video (AV) or S-Video input, and select the

AV2 (for Composite Video input) or AV2-S (for S-Video input) as the input

source respectively to view analog video. See "Connecting the Composite

Video input" on page 25 and "Connecting the S-Video input" on page 26.

If the video source device supports it, you could alternatively connect it using

the Component Video inputs and select AV1 as the input source for the best

possible analog video picture. See "Connecting the Component Video input"

on page 26.

Of the analog video signal types mentioned above, Component Video offers the

best quality.

Graphic source inputs

You can connect the D-Sub output of a PC to the TV’s PC D-Sub input. For

better picture quality, you can alternatively connect the DVI output (if

available) of the PC to the TV’s HDMI/DVI input using a DVI to HDMI

adaptor cable. If your device supports HDMI output, you can also use the

HDMI input on the TV for connection.

Select the PC, DVI or HDMI input respectively to view the display. See

"Connecting the PC D-Sub input" on page 27, "Connecting the DVI input" on

page 27 and "Connecting the HDMI input" on page 28.

In order to fully utilize the high-definition capability of this TV, you should adjust

the output resolution of the source device (for example, DVD player or PC) to

closely match the native resolution of the TV. For example, 720p for Component/

HDMI video or 1360 x 768 pixels for PC video. For information on how to adjust

output resolution, please refer to the documentations of the device.
