Parental  
The Parental Control Function (V-CHIP) is used to block program viewing  
based on the ratings sent by the broadcast stations.1 The United States has  
two rating systems for viewing contents, i.e. TV Parental Guidelines and  
movie ratings. The TV Parental Guidelines work in conjunction with the  
V-CHIP to help parents screen out inappropriate television programs from  
their children. Movie ratings are used for original movies rated by the Motion  
Picture Association of America (MPAA) as watched on cable TV and not  
edited for television. The V-CHIP can also be set to block MPAA-rated  
movies.

11 Taking Care of Your TV & Remote  
Control  
Turn the power off before you begin cleaning the  
TV.  
For best results, use a clean lens cloth to  
remove dust and fingerprints from the screen.  
Do not wipe the shell of the TV with alcohol,  
methanol, gasoline or oil products to avoid  
GAS  
OIL  
damaging the finish. Wipe the shell with a dry  
soft cloth and use neutral cleaning fluids.  
If your model has leather components, wipe the  
leather parts with a dry cloth and keep the area  
dry. Place the TV far from sources of steam to  
avoid making the leather wet.  
Be careful to disconnect the power plug  
correctly. Hold the plug. Do not attempt to  
disconnect the plug by pulling on the power cord.  
Arrange and store the power cord neatly as  
shown to the left to avoid knotting or bending  
which may cause fire due to damage or electric  
leakage.  
Notes  
Do not place the remote control in hot or humid locations. Protect the  
remote control from shock or vibration to avoid damages.  
Check the remote control batteries on a regular basis. Clean any stains  
on the rear battery cover immediately and use new batteries if fluid is  
leaking from old batteries.

Glossary  
Aspect Ratio: The ratio of width to height of a film, image or display  
screen.  
Broadcast TV: Broadcasting video signals using high-frequency  
electromagnetic waves to distribute television channels to viewers  
(standard TV broadcast).  
CATV: Community Antenna Television, the original name for cable  
TV. A television distribution system that uses coaxial cable instead of  
the traditional radio broadcasting (over-the-air) method to deliver  
television, FM radio, and other services to consumers.  
Color Temperature: Adjusting the color temperature enables you to  
set the intensity of white light. Color temperature is measured in  
Kelvin (K). Higher color temperatures result in a blue tint. Lower  
temperatures result in a red tint.  
Hue: Colors in a color system are measured by hue, saturation and  
luminance. Hue indicates the predominant color.  
LCD (Liquid Crystal Display): A display technology that uses rod-  
shaped molecules (liquid crystals) that flow like liquid and bend light.  
MTS: Multi-channel Television Sound. Enables reception of audio  
other than the primary (stereo) audio signal. SAP (Second Audio  
Program) enables reception of a separate channel that may be a  
different language or completely different information such as the  
news.  
OSD (On-Screen Display): A control panel on the television screen that  
allows you to select viewing options.  
Saturation: Chromatic purity indicating the amount of white contained  
in a color. Fully saturated colors are pure colors; less saturated  
colors appear as pastel shades.  
Stereo: is the default audio signal belonging to a particular channel.  
S-Video: Separate video, a video cabling standard used to transmit  
video by keeping brightness (Y) and color information (C) on  
separate channels. Most often used with camcorders, VCRs, and  
quality receivers and amplifiers to provide sharper pictures.
