1HI' MY
NAMEIS
SCOTT...
....and
I wrote
this
user manual.
You're
probably
saying
to yourself,
"so you're
the guy." Well,
laugh
if
you
must,
but it's my job to see that
you have a
irewarding
user manual
experience.
No, really.
ARE YOU
KIDDING?
AN
80-PAGE
I NSTRUCTION
BOOK?
Back in the old days, you bought
a TV, stuck some
rabbit
ears on it, and sat back and enjoyed
test
patterns
and bad sitcoms.
Now, TVs are more
like
computers
than
radios,
and you
have to jump
througha
few
hoops
to get the TV up and running.
Don't
worry,
it sounds
more
complicated
than
it is.

READ THE
FIRST FOUR
CHAPTERS
These chapters
cover the
four
big hoops:
get the TV
out of the box and hooked
up, learn
to move
through
the
menu
system,
run the
interactive
setup
routine,
and program
the
remote
to control
your
VCR and other
stuff.
That's
about
thirty
pages'
worth
of user manual
stuff.
The rest of the
manual
should
be used as reference
material.
You can thumb
through
these
sections
whenever
you
get some time.
If you
have a specific
question,
refer
to thetable

or the

CHECK OUTTHE
NOTES
IN THE TEXT
I've spent
a lot of time
pestering
the
people
who
made
your
TV: engineers,
designers,
product
managersmyou
name
it, I cornered
them.
In the
process,
I've gotten
some
great
advice
about
how
to
tweak
the TV. I've passed
on as many
of these
tips as
I could,
so
keep
an eye out
for notes
in the text.
