Tips
• If you want to stop automatic channel presetting, press SELECT twice.
• If your TV has preset an unwanted channel or cannot preset a particular

channel, then preset your TV manually (see page 9).

Note (KV-XG29M80 only)
• During automatic channel presetting, your TV screen will indicate “B/G” ,

“I”, “D/K” or “M” for the TV system.

Notes
• If you connect a monaural VCR, connect the yellow plug to 

 (the yellow

jack) and the black plug to  -L (MONO) (the white jack).

• If you connect  a VCR  to the 8 (antenna) terminal, preset the signal

output from the VCR to the program number 0 on the TV.

• Do not connect video equipment to the t 2 (video input) jacks at the

front and the rear of your TV at the same time; otherwise the picture will
not be displayed properly on the screen.

• When no signal is input from the connected video equipment, the TV

screen becomes blue.

CAUTION
• Do not connect the power cord until you have completed making all other

connections; otherwise a minimum leakage current might flow through
the antenna and other terminals to ground.

• To avoid battery leakage and damage to the remote, remove the batteries

from the remote if you are not going to use it for several days. If any
liquid that leaks from the batteries touches you, immediately wash it
away with water.

Note
• Do not use old batteries nor use different types of batteries together.
