This is just a general room design. Any number of setups are possible,and some changes may be neededto maximize your sound. However, aDolby Digital Receiver is required tohear 5.1 channel audio.
A left and right speaker on either side of the set enhances separation.The TV “center mode in,” makes thedialog sound as though it’s comingdirectly from the TV. The rear sur-round sound speakers provide the majority of other sounds, likethose from special effects in movies.Your sub-woofer generates ultra-low frequency sound, for rumbling low-end audio.
Sound is affected by speaker placement, so make sure nothing is infront of the speakers, andthat they are aimed inappropriate directions.
You have the option of turning the internal speakerson or off.

Maintenance
1. Here’s a great way to keep the dust off your screen for a while. Wet a soft cloth in a mixture oflukewarm water and a little fabric softener or dish washing detergent. Wring the cloth until it’salmost dry, and then use it to wipe the screen.
2. Make sure the excess water is off the screen, and then let it air-dry before you turn on your TV.
1. Use a soft cloth with a mild soap solution to wipe the cabinet.
2. Rinse the cloth and wipe the cabinet again.
3. Let the cabinet air-dry before turning the TV on.
Use a quality wood cleaner and polish. This will protect the TV from dirt and dust, as well as keepthe cabinet looking new.
If you leave your TV dormant for a long time (such as a vacation), it’s a good idea to unplug thepower cord to protect against possible damage from lightning or power surges. If you use an off-airantenna, you may also want to disconnect it from the back of your TV before leaving.

Maintenance continued
Even though you may be getting cable, the signal may be weak, which means the quality of your picture may suffer due to other factors. If there are problems with the image on your TV,consult the Troubleshooting guide on the following pages. You may also want to contact your cableservice provider to determine if the problem is from the cable service.
If you use your TV to play video games or for other uses that have single, fixed images, such as a photo-CD player, you should avoid setting the Brightness level too high. If static images, like network identification patterns, are left on the screen for too long, they canleave a permanent impression on the TV screen. You can reduce the chance of this happening bylimiting the amount of time you use the fixed-image display, and by reducing the contrast andbrightness levels.
