Welcome into the family of Zenith Color Television owners. This guide provides instructions on how to operate your new TV. In addition, we strongly advise you to read and observe the precautions listed in the Safety Tips section of this operat- ing guide. Read this publication carefully so that you will re- ceive full enjoyment from your new Zenith TV for many years to come. Your new TV has been designed and built to give you the very best in quality, features and performance. There are many regional Zenith authorized service centers throughout the U.S., Canada and Mexico who can attend promptly and ef- f_=tively to ordinary service needs. If you should have an unusual performance or service problem that cannot be satisfactorily resolved by your Zenith authorized service center, call or write: Zenith Electronics Corporation Customer Service Department 1000 Milwaukee Avenue Gtenview, IL 60025-2493 Telephone: (847) 391-8752 Mon-Fri, 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Central Time Send the model number, serial number, and date of purchase or original installation, with a full1e:_planation of the problem and the service history. We will welcome the opportunity to look into your specific question or Izroblem and to be of assis- tance in resolving it promptly. The model and serial numbers of you:: new TV are located on the back of the TV cabinet. For your fiatu::econvenience and protec- tion, we suggest that you record these numbers here: Model No. Serial No. INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS Before you install your TV... Ventilation --- Proper ventilation keeps your TV running cool. Air circulates through perforations in the back and bottom of the cabinet. Do not block these vents or you will shorten the life of your TV. Power Source -- Your TV is designed to operate on normal hou,;ehold current, 120 volt 60 Hertz AC. Do not attempt to operate it on DC current. Power Cord -- Your power cord has a polarized plug as required by Underwriters' Laboratories. It has one regular blade and one wide blade and fits only one way into a standard electrical outlet. If the blades will not enter either way, your outlet is very old and non-standard. A new outlet should be installed by a qualified electrician. Safe Operation -- Your TV is manufactured and tested with your safety in mind. However, unusual stress caused by dropping or mishandling, expo- sure to flood, fire, rain or moisture, or accidental spilling of liquids into the TV, can result in poten- tial electrical shock or fire hazards. If this hap- pens, have your TV checked by a service technician before using it again. Please read and observe each safety point in the "Safety Tips" section when installing and using your TV. VIDEO GAMES AND OTHER FIXED PATTERN DISPLAY CAUTION -- If you use your TV for video games or other fixed displays, avoid setting the BRIGHTNESS control for an excesdvely bright picture. A fixed display is any image which does not change fiequently, such as a channel/network identification or other symbol that remains in the same location for long periods of time. A bright, fixed pattern, if left on for long periods of time, can re- sult in a permanent imprint on the TV picture tube. You can reduce this possibility by alternating the use of 1:hefixed pat- tern display with normal TV picture viewing, by turning down the CONTRAST control for sustained fixed pattern use, and by turning off the fixed pattern display when nc,t in use. PLUGGING IN YOUR TV --- Be sure to plug your TV into an "unswitched" AC power source. The "switched" AC out- lets found on some video equipment will not continue supply- ing power to the TV once the equipment is turned off. If the power to the TV is interrupted, you will have tc reset the clock in the TV to the current time. TVWEL.DIR3 V

SPECIAL FEATURES If you experience problems when recording using the VCR Plus+ feature using your VCR and/or cable box, see if the problem(s) can be resolved by programming in one of these special features. These special features enable you to use your brand of equipment even though it requires unique remote control characteristics. Note: To erase these special features, simply reprogram the brand code into the CABLE or VCR mode. Cable/Converter Volume (Code 399) You may use your remote to ,control cable/convertervolume and muting if available on your equipment. First program your remote with thebrand cxxlefor yourcabledevice usingthe CABLE key. Then repeat the programming steps, again using the CABLE key, but key in code 3-9-9 instead of a brand code. To restore TV volume/mute to the CABLE mode, simply re-enter (key-in) your cableiconveaer code numberinto that mode. 599 Add ENTER Some cable boxes and VCR's require an ENTER code to properly tune a channel. When 599 is.programmed into either the CABLE or VCR mode, the remote will transmit the ENTER code for either the cable box or the VCR during a VCR Plus+ recording. This feature and the 699 CH100 feature described below cannot be active at the same time. 699 CH100. Some cable boxes and VCRs require a CH 100 code to properly tune a 3-digit channel. When 699 is programmed into either the cable or VCR mode, the remote will transmit a CH I00 code, if required, during a VCR Plus+ recording. This feature and the 599 Add ENTER feature, described above, cannot be active at the same time. 799 Increase Digit Separation This feature, when programmed into either the CAlqLE or VCR mode, will increase the time between digit transmis:;ions to 1 second during VCR Plus+ recording. Use this feature if the default between digit transmissions is too fast for the VCR or cable box. 899 Digit Override If a VCR brand code has been programmed into the VCR mode, but the Cable mode is empty, the remol:e will transmit VCR digits (for example, it will tune the VCR during a VCR Plus+ recording). If a Cable brand code has been programmed into the CABLE mode, then the remote will transmit cable digits (for example, it will tune the cable box) during a VCR Plus+ record: ng). Programming 899 into the Cable or VCR mode will force the remote to traasmit VCR digits, even if a Cable brand (:ode has been programmed ir_to the CABLE mode during a VCR Plus+ recording. 999 Decrease Digit Separation This feature, when programmed into either CABLE or VCR mode, will decrease the time between digit trzaasmissions t,a 0.2 seconds during a VCR Plus+ recording. Use this feature if the default time between digits transmission is too slow for the VCR or cable box. :131-O 4 -- 8
