MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
CARING l-OR YOUR TV
Your TV will look better, have a longer life, and perform
better if you care for it properly.
i_ First, check to see that the TV is off. For added
satiety, unplug the TV from the power outlet.
,d Note: If you unplug your "IV, you may have to re-
set the clock to the current time.
Cabinet Care
Non-Wood Cabinet or Cabinet Components
Moisten a soft cloth with a mild soap solution. Wipe the surface
with a damp cloth. Then rinse the cloth in clean water and wipe
the surface again. Allow the TV to air-dry before turning it on.
Wood Cabinets or Cabinet Components
Use any good furniture cleaner and polish. Regular care will
help preserve the finish.
Picture Glass Cleaning
The picture tube face attracts dust particles and should be
cleaned regularly. To clean the face, spray a small amount of
glass cleaner on a cloth and wipe the glass face until clean.
Repeat if necessary.
To prevent dust accumulation, wet a soft cloth in lukewarm
water mixed with a little fabric softener or a mild soap
solution. Wring the cloth almost dry. Wipe the glass face.
Make sure no drops of moisture are squeezed onto the glass.
Do not wipe the glass dry. Allow the glass to air-dry before
you turn the "In/on again.
E';XTENDED ABSENCE
Before an exte_ded absence (such as a vacation) you may want
to unplug the power cord from the electrical wall outlet. This
will protect the,TV from possible damage from lightning or
power line surges. If you have an outdoor antenna, you may
also want to disconnect the antenna lead-in wires on the back
o ["the TV.
Note: If you unplug your "IV, you may have to reset the clock
to the current time.
TV PICTURE INTERFERENCE
Your "IV picture may be affecte,:l by interference such as:
Speckled or Streaked Picture
Can be caused by nearby automobile ignition, electrical appli-
ances, etc. Mest noticeable in weak signal areas.
Snow in Picture
Caused by insufficient signal. Usually caused by the TV being
located too far"from the TV station or by improper antenna
installation.
Ghosts or Reflections
Caused by signals being reflected from surrounding buildings,
water tanks, or other high strttcrJres.
Radio Signal
Caused by police, amateur, or CE radio transminers.
These interference problems can often be corrected by using a
better antenna, signal amplifiers, or various filter devices. See
your "IV dealer for additional information and available TV
accessories.
VIDEO GAMES AND' OTHER FIXED
PATTERN DISPLA Y CA UTION
If you use your TV for video games or other fixed displays,
avoid setting 11:Le Brightness control for an excessively bright
picture. A fixed display is any image that doesn't change fre-
quently, such as a channel/network identification or other sym-
bol that remains in the same location for long periods of time. A
bright, fixed pattern, if left on for long periods of time, can re-
suit in a permanent imprint on t2aeTV picture l_be. You can re-
duce this possibility by alternating the use of the fixed pattern
display with normal "IV picttxe viewing, by ttaning down the
Contrast control for sustained fixed pattern use, madby turning off
the fLxedpattern display when nct in use.
