• To avoid possible shock hazard be sure the TV is unplugged from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
• When cleaning the TV screen take care not to scratch or damage the screen surface (avoid wearing jewelry or using
anything abrasive). Wipe the front screen with a clean cloth dampened with water. Use even, easy, vertical strokes
when cleaning.
• Gently wipe the cabinet surfaces with a clean cloth or sponge dampened in a solution of cool clear water. Use a
clean dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.
• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on or near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent
marring of the cabinet finish.
Coaxial Cable • A single solid antenna wire normally matched
with a metal plug (F-type) end connector that screws (or pushes)
directly onto a 75 Ohm input found on the Television or VCR.
Closed Caption • Broadcast standard which allows you to read
the voice content of television programs on the TV screen.
Designed to help the hearing impaired this feature uses onscreen
"text boxes" to show dialogue and conversations while the TV
program is in progress.
Audio/Video Inputs • Located on the front of the TV these con-
nectors (RCA phono type plug) are used for the input of audio
and video signals. Designed for use with VCRs (or other acces-
sories) in order to receive higher picture resolution and offer
sound connection options.
Onscreen Displays (OSD) • Refers to the wording or messages
generated by the television (or VCR) to help the user with specific
feature controls (color adjustment, programming, etc.).

Menu • An onscreen listing of feature controls shown on the
Television screen that are made available for user adjustments.

numbers into the Television's memory circuits. In this way the
Television "remembers'' only the locally available or desired
channel numbers and skips over any unwanted channel numbers.
Remote Sensor Window • A window or opening found on the
Television control panel through which infrared remote control
command signals are received.
Twin Lead Wire • The more commonly used name for the two
strand 300 Ohm antenna wire used with many indoor and outdoor

an additional adapter (or balun) in order to connect to the 75 Ohm
Input terminals designed into the more recent Televisions and
VCRs.
