							IMPORTANT INFORMATION

ENGLISH
Important Information
Information Regarding Convergence
In the projection television, the image is formed by
projecting 3 different color images (red, green and blue)
onto the projection screen. Convergence refers to the
alignment of red, green and blue images on the
projection screen. When these images are properly
aligned (converged), you see a sharp and vibrant color
image. Sometimes, the three images may require
alignment. This is due to the effect of earth’s magnetic field
on the projection tubes. Normally, adjustment is not
necessary after the initial alignment at the center of the
screen. It is possible to correct the color fringing on other
areas of the screen by using the buttons on the remote
control and by following the on-screen instructions in the
set-up menu. Please converge the images before using the
television for the first time. The following diagram shows
examples of a misaligned image and a properly aligned
image. Please refer to pages 26 and 27 for detailed
procedure on how to adjust convergence. 
Notes:
• Make sure that the set is on for at least 20 minutes
before adjusting convergence as described on pages 26
and 27. 
Important Information Regarding The Use Of 
Video Games, Computers, Or Other Fixed 
Image Displays.
FCC INFORMATION
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limit for a Class B Digital Device in accordance with the
specifications in Part 15 of the FCC Rules. The limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against radio
and television interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications, However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation.
If this equipment does cause interference to radio or
television reception (which you can determine by turning
the equipment off and on), try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures.
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the
receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
Misconverged image
Properly aligned image
WARNING: The marking or retained image on the
picture tube resulting from viewing fixed image is
not an operating defect and as such is not covered
by Warranty. 
The projection television is designed to display
constantly moving images on the screen. Continuous
viewing of stationary images such as letterbox pictures
on standard screen TVs (with top/bottom bars), non-
expanded standard (4:3) pictures on wide screen TVs
(with side bars shown on each side of an image), stock
market report bars (ticker running at the bottom of the
screen), video game patterns, fixed scoreboards,
bright station logos, on-line (Internet) or repetitive
computer style patterns should be limited.
The extended use of fixed image program material can
cause a permanent picture tube damage, shown as a
“shadow image” viewable on normal programs. This
type of irreversible picture tube deterioration can be
limited by performing the following steps:
• Limit the display of fixed image program material to
no more than 15% of total viewing time per week.
• Turn the power off when not in use.

OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT CONNECTIONS
ENGLISH
Digital Audio Out Connection
Use the diagram below to connect the Digital Audio Output of your
HDTV Projection Television to a Dolby Digital decoder.
Digital Audio Out
Dolby Digital 5.1 channel surround sound delivers digital-quality
sound. Dolby Digital provides five discrete full-bandwidth
channels for front left, front right, center, surround left and
surround right, plus a LFE (Low Frequency Effect) subwoofer
channel. For a full Home Theater sound experience, an external
Dolby Digital decoder and a multichannel amplifier must be
connected to the Digital Audio Out jack on the PTV.
Procedure
• Connect the Digital Audio cable from the Digital Audio
Out jack on the PTV to the Digital Audio In connection on
the Dolby Digital decoder.
Note:When ATSC channel is selected, the output from the
Digital Audio Out jack will be Dolby Digital. But, if NTSC
channel is selected, the output will be PCM.
Program Out Connection (PROG OUT)
You can connect a VCR to the PROG OUT terminal to
record the program you are viewing on-screen. An external
monitor can also be connected to the PROG OUT and TO
AUDIO AMP terminals. Connect the VCR as shown below. 
Procedure
• Connect the VCR to PROG OUT and TO AUDIO AMP
terminals
• PROG OUT terminal display is the same as on-screen
display.
• See the VCR instruction manual for further instructions
for recording the program.
Notes:
• This TV contains Video and Audio Outputs for the
purpose of recording television programming to VCR.
Due to license restrictions, if a device (STB, DVD, etc.) isconnected to the HDMI input of the TV, no video or audio
output is allowed. 
• Program Out signal may not be available when
component input is selected for main picture.
• Program Out signal is available when receiving digital
channel. However, all digital formats are down converted
to composite NTSC video.
• When receiving digital or analog channels signals and
the analog or digital CC is ON, Program Out connector
will output open caption text in the NTSC video picture. If
CC is OFF, only analog CC closed caption code is
passed out the Program Out connector.
• Certain program content output from the Program Out
connector may have the Macrovision signal modification
applied to its signal, preventing VCRs from recording this
video signal.
Amplifier Connection (Analog) 
To listen the audio through a separate stereo system,
connect an external audio amplifier TO AUDIO AMP
outputs on back of television.
Note:TO AUDIO AMP terminals cannot be connected directly
to external speakers. 
Audio Adjustments
• Select Speakers Off in Audio Other Adjust menu.
• Set amplifier volume to the preferred level.
