INTRODUCTION SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Congratulations on your purchase of this Sanyo MTS stereo TruFlat TM screen television. Sanyo's TruFlat TM screen offers these important benefits... Distortion-Free Images - Sanyo TruFlat TM recreates the theater screen experience by eliminating distortion that a curved conventional TV screen produces. Wider Viewing Angle - No curves mean that the full picture can be seen from a wider seating range in your room.
LOCATION OF CONTROLS REMOTE CONTROL USE FRONT Point to remote control sensor of the TV set. The maximum operable distance is approximately 20 feet from the remote control sensor, and not more than 30 to either side of center. The operation of the remote control is most effective when there is nothing between it and the remote control sensor. The duration of the batteries is approximately 6 months to 1 year. Replace the batteries when the remote operation becomes unstable.
ANTENNA CONNECTION CABLE TV (CATV) CONNECTION ANTENNA A 75-ohm coaxial cable connector is built into the set for easy hookup. When connecting the 75 ohm coaxial cable to the set, screw the 75-ohm cable to the COAXIAL CABLE CONNECTOR. Some cable TV companies offer "premium pay channels". Since the signals of these premium pay channels are scrambled, a cable TV converter/descrambler is generally provided to the subscriber by the cable TV company.
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 case, separate each piece of equipment at a sufficient distance.
