IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS  
3 Overloaded AC outlets and extension  
cords are dangerous, and so are frayed  
power cords and broken plugs. They may  
result in a shock or fire hazard. Call your  
service technician for replacement.  
CAUTION:  
Please read and retain for your safety.  
Electrical energy can perform many useful  
functions. This Appliance has been engineered  
and manufactured to assure your personal  
safety. But improper use can result in potential  
electrical shock or fire hazards. In order not to

for example, near a bathtub, washbowl,  
kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet  
basement, or near swimming pool, etc.  
INSTALLATION  
1 Your Appliance is equipped with a  
grounding-type AC line plug (three-blade  
type), a plug having a third (grounding)  
pin.  
6 If an outside antenna is connected to the  
Appliance, be sure the antenna system is  
grounded so as to provide some protection  
against voltage surges and built-up static  
charges. Section 810 of the National  
(GROUNDING-TYPE)  
Electrical Code provides information with  
respect to proper grounding of the mast  
and supporting structure, grounding of the  
lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit,  
size of grounding conductors, location of  
antenna discharge unit, connection  
This plug will only fit into a grounding-type  
power outlet. This is a safety feature.  
Should you be unable to insert the plug  
into the outlet, contact your electrician to  
replace your outlet. Do not defeat the  
safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.

time the monitor is moved to an area  
that receives different channels so  
that the monitor can memorize the  
new broadcast stations. Otherwise,  
perform CH RESET ON (channel  
reset ON) to tune all TV channels.  
There may not be a solution to the following problems, although adjusting the antenna or taking  
measures against interfering equipment may improve the situation somewhat.  
The screen appears snowy and noise is heard. (Snow)  
Is the antenna connected properly?  
Has the antenna cable been cut or loosened?  
Has the antenna orientation been changed or is the antenna broken?  
The image is displayed two or three times on the monitor. (Ghosting)  
This may be caused by mountains or buildings. Also, if the broadcast antenna is located nearby,  
the TV transmission the monitor receives directly from it may affect the picture.  
Spots are displayed and noise is heard. (Interference)  
This may be caused by interfering radio waves generated by dryers, automobiles, motorcycles or  
fluorescent lights.  
Stripes are displayed and noise is heard. (Radio Interference)  
This may be caused by radio interference generated by radio stations, personal computers, AV  
equipment or microwave ovens.  
The following are not malfunctions:  
The monitor emits a strange sound when the room temperature changes suddenly. This is only a  
problem if an abnormality appears on the screen as well.  
If two or more monitors are operated next to each other, their images may shake or be distorted. This  
phenomenon is due to mutual interference; it is not a malfunction. Move the monitors away from each  
other until the interference disappears or turn the power off on any monitor that is not being used.  
If a magnet or speaker is placed close to the monitor, the picture may shake. This is caused by the  
magnetic effect and is not a malfunction.  
When the monitor is turned ON, the sound of a running motor may be heard. This is the cooling fan and  
is not a malfunction.  
When playing back a video tape, the upper edge of the picture may be distorted. This is caused by  
skew distortion and is not a malfunction.  
Vertical stripes may occur on a dark picture. This is caused by quantization noise (noise which occurs  
when a picture is digitized) and is not a malfunction.

CHARACTERISTICS OF LCCS  
VIDEO MONITOR SYSTEM  
PRINCIPLE BEHIND LCCS VIDEO MONITOR OPERATION  
The LCCS Video Monitor is a combination of a black-and-white cathode-ray tube and liquid crystal color  
shutter (LCCS), which are used together to reproduce color images.  
The video signal input to the monitor is demodulated into RGB primary color signals which are then  
stored in the field memory. Signals in the field memory are read three times faster than the input video  
signal is, and are displayed on the black-and-white cathode-ray tube in the order of R, G and B. (Three  
images are displayed during one field.)  
Color filters on the liquid crystal color shutter change according to the displayed primary color signal,  
transforming the black-and-white images into R, G and B primary color images.  
Because of the phenomenon known as persistence of vision, the R, G and B primary color images appear  
as a single color image to the human eye.  
FEATURES OF LCCS VIDEO MONITOR  
• High Contrast  
Thanks to its low permeability, the liquid crystal color shutter (LCCS) does not reflect outside light as  
much, enabling it to reproduce high-contrast images even in direct sunlight.  
• High Resolution  
The use of a black-and-white cathode-ray tube (which has no picture elements) and a liquid crystal color  
shutter (LCCS) allows it to display images at high resolution.  
• No Irregular Color Caused By Magnetic Interference  
Unlike with color cathode-ray tubes, irregular color does not occur on the display because the monitor  
does not have any color elements.  
• No Moire Patterns  
Horizontal moire patterns (interference fringes) do not occur because the monitor does not have any  
color elements.  
THE FOLLOWING ARE NOT MALFUNCTIONS:  
Picture hue changes depending on the angle from which the monitor is viewed.  
This is due to normal characteristics of the liquid crystal color shutter.  
Two horizontal stripes are displayed on the picture.  
This is due to the structure of the liquid crystal color shutter.  
Simple color image is displayed for an instant.  
This is due to normal characteristics of the LCCS video monitor.  
Patterns such as spots are displayed when the monitor is turned ON or OFF.  
This is due to normal characteristics of the liquid crystal color shutter.  
The color of characters or images seem to be shifted.  
This is due to normal characteristic of the LCCS video monitor.  
When images combined with a Macrovision copy protection signal or jittery images from a VCR, etc.  
are displayed on the monitor, their color may appear to be shifted.
