Safety information

To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not plug the AC power adapter

into an extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the blades

can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure. To prevent fire or

shock hazard, do not expose this appliance to rain or moisture.

The exclamation point within a triangle is intended to

alert you to the presence of important operating and

maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature

accompanying your TV.

Caution:

Your TV should not be exposed to water (dripping or splashing).

Important safeguards

• Read instructions—Read all the safety and operating

instructions before operating your TV.

• Retain instructions—Retain the safety and operating

instructions for future reference.

• Follow warnings—Follow all warnings on your TV and in the

operating instructions.

• Follow instructions—Follow all operating and use

instructions.

• Listening Safely—To protect your hearing, follow these

guidelines when you use headphones. Set the volume to the

lowest setting before you begin listening. After you begin

listening, adjust the volume to a comfortable level. Do not listen

at extremely high volume levels. Extended high-volume

listening can lead to permanent hearing loss. Once you set the

volume, do not increase it. Over time, your ears adapt to the

volume level. So a volume level that does not cause discomfort

might still damage your hearing.

• Traffic Safety—Do not wear headphones while operating a

motor vehicle or riding a bicycle. This can create a traffic

hazard and could be illegal in some areas. Even though some

headphones let you hear some outside sounds when listening

at normal volume levels, they can still present a traffic hazard.

Caution

Any change or modification to your TV not expressly

approved by the manufacturer or its authorized parties could

void your authority to operate your shelf system.

• Cleaning—Unplug your TV from the AC power adapter before

cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a

damp cloth for cleaning.

• Attachments—Do not use attachments not recommended by

Insignia because they may cause hazards.

• Water and moisture—Do not use your TV near water, for

example, near a bath tub, in a wet basement, or near a

swimming pool.

• Power sources—Use only the type of power source indicated

on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power

supplied to your home, consult your TV dealer or local power

company. For TVs intended to operate from battery power or

other sources, refer to the operating instructions.

• Power cord protection—Route power supply cords so that

they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed

upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at

plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit

from your TV.

• Lightning—For added protection for your TV during a lightning

storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods

of time, unplug it from the AC power adapter. This will prevent

damage to your TV due to lightning and power line surges.

• Overloading—Do not overload power outlets and extension

cords because this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

• Object and liquid entry—Never push objects of any kind into

your TV through openings, because 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 your TV.

• Servicing—Do not attempt to service your TV yourself. Refer

all servicing to qualified service personnel.

• Damage requiring service—Unplug your TV from the AC

power adapter and refer servicing to qualified service

personnel under the following conditions:

• When the power supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed.

• If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into your TV.

• If your TV has been exposed to rain or water.

• If your TV does not operate normally by following the

operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are

covered by the operating instructions, because incorrect

adjustment of other controls may result in damage and

often requires extensive work by a qualified technician to

restore your TV to its normal operation.

• If your TV has been dropped or damaged in any way.

• When your TV exhibits a distinct change in performance.

• Replacement parts—When replacement parts are required,

make sure that the service technician uses replacement parts

specified by the manufacturer that have the same

characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions

may result in fire, electric shock, injury to persons, or other

hazards.

• Safety check—Upon completion of any service or repairs to

your TV, ask the service technician to perform routine safety

checks to determine that your TV is in correct operating

condition.

• Heat—Place your TV away from heat sources such as

radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products (including

amplifiers) that produce heat.

Setting up your TV

Using the remote control

To use the remote control:

1 The first time you use the remote control, remove the plastic sheet

from the bottom of the battery to activate the remote.

2 Point the remote control directly at the TV, within a 30° angle of the

IR sensor on the front of the TV, and within 10 feet (3 meters).

Note

Objects between the remote control and the sensor may

weaken the remote control’s IR signal.

Range can be diminished by direct sunlight shining on the

TV’s IR sensor.

Cautions

Do not expose the remote control to liquids, direct sunlight,

or shock.

The remote control may not work correctly if the TV’s IR

sensor is under direct sunlight or strong lighting. In these

cases, change the angle of the lighting or the TV screen, or

operate the remote control closer to the IR sensor.

Connecting the AC power adapter

To use the AC power adapter:

1 Make sure that your local AC power source matches the voltage

shown on the AC power adapter. If it does not, consult your dealer

or service center.

2 Connect the DC cord from the AC power adapter to the 9 V DC

jack on the right side of the TV, then plug it into the AC power

outlet.

Charging the battery

Your TV comes equipped with a built-in, rechargable NiMH battery.

This battery must be charged before you use it for the first time, and

periodically when it becomes discharged.

To charge the battery:

1 Turn off the TV.

2 Connect the DC cord from the AC power adapter to the 9 V DC

jack on the right side of the TV, then plug it into the AC power

outlet. The red PWR/CHG LED on the side of the TV will light red.

3 When the battery is fully charged, the PWR/CHG LED will turn off.

Unplug the AC power adapter to stop charging the battery when

this happens.

Caution

You must use a regulated ITE power source that supplies

9 V DC. The supplied AC power adapter meets these

specifications. Using an adapter that does not meet these

specifications could damage the TV or the adapter.

Caution

To protect your TV, unplug the AC power adapter from the

AC power outlet during heavy thunderstorms.

Note

Your TV can normally operate up to 100 minutes on a fully

charged battery. Recharge the battery when the sound level

decreases or the picture becomes unstable.
