INTRODUCTION SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Congratulations on your purchase of this Sanyo MTS stereo television. ANTENNA The stereo speakers are front-mounted at the left and right sides of the TV screen for better stereo effect, delivering a high audio output of 24 watts (total). With over 500 lines of horizontal resolution via the built-in S-video jack, pictures from DVD will be reproduced in amazing detail.
LOCATION OF CONTROLS USE OF THE REMOTE CONTROL FRONT Point to remote control sensor of the TV set.

Replace the batteries when the remote operation becomes unstable.
ANTENNA CONNECTION CABLE TV (CATV) CONNECTION ANTENNA The antenna requirements for good color television reception are more important than those for black & white television reception. For this reason, a good quality outdoor antenna is strongly recommended. The following is a brief explanation of the type of connections that are provided with the various antenna systems: 1. A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type connector that can easily be attached to a terminal without tools. 2.
VIDEO/AUDIO CONNECTIONS Prior to making any connections to your TV set, be sure to turn the POWER off. For a more detailed understanding of each connection, it is recommended that you read the instruction manual for each connected component. If you use video or audio equipment placed near the TV, picture and/or sound may become distorted due to interference between these components. In such a case, separate each piece of equipment at a sufficient distance.
