USING THE TV/MONITOR AS A TV

Follow these steps to use the TV/monitor as a standard TV.

1.  Set TV/MONITOR to TV.

2.  To turn on the monitor, turn VOLUME to the left until it clicks.

3.  Set the Band selector for the desired band.

    VHF LOW for Channels 2-6.

    VHF HIGH for Channels 7-13.

    UHF for Channels 14-69.

4.  Press TUNING \/ or /\ until the TV/monitor tunes to a station.

    NOTE:  While the TV/Monitor's tuner seeks for the next channel, a
           vertical line appears and scans the screen in the same
           direction as the TUNING button you pressed (left or right). 
           The line appears directly above the channel number on the
           corresponding scale (VHF LOW, VHF HIGH, or UHF).

5.  Adjust the picture as follows:

    A.  Turn TINT to adjust the picture's color hue.

    B.  Turn COLOR to adjust the picture's color intensity.

    C.  Turn BRIGHT to adjust the picture's brightness.

    D.  Turn CONTRAST to adjust the difference between the picture's
        light and dark areas.

6.  To recall the channel you are viewing, press CHANNEL CALL.

7.  Adjust the telescoping antenna (if used) for the best picture and
    sound.

8.  Adjust VOLUME to suit your taste.

9.  To turn off the TV/monitor, turn VOLUME to the right until it clicks.

To listen in privacy, you need an earphone with a 1/8-inch plug (such as
Cat. No. 33-175, not supplied) or stereo headphones using a stereo-to-mono
adapter (such as headphones Cat. No. 33-2002 and adapter Cat. No. 274-368,
not included).  Your local Radio Shack store has a wide selection of
earphones to choose from.  Plug the earphone's 1/8-inch plug into the
TV/monitor's EARPHONE jack.  When you connect an earphone, the
TV/monitor's internal speaker is automatically disconnected.

HEARING COMFORT AND YOUR HEALTH

To protect your hearing, follow these guidelines when you use earphones.

    Always start by setting the lowest volume level possible first, put
    the earphone or headphones on, then gradually increase the volume as
    necessary.

    Do not listen at extremely high volume levels.  Extended high-volume
    listening can lead to permanent hearing loss.

    Once you set the volume, do not increase it.  Over time, your ears
    adapt to the volume level, so a volume level that does not cause
    discomfort might still damage your hearing.
