Welcome

Congratulations on your purchase of a high-quality Insignia product. Your new TV represents the state of the art in television design, and is designed for reliable and trouble-free performance.

Safety information

Antenna connections

If an outside antenna is connected to the television equipment, make sure that the antenna system is grounded to provide protection against voltage surges and built-up static electricity charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code provides information on proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of the grounding

conductors, location of the antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

• For added protection during a lightning storm, or when the product is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the power outlet and disconnect the antenna. This will prevent damage to the equipment due to lightning and power line surges.

• An outside antenna system should not be located near overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits, because contact with them can be fatal.

Risk of shock

To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this appliance to rain or moisture.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated dangerous voltage within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

Warning

Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, overloaded extension cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any of these conditions could result in electric shock or fire. Periodically examine the cord of your TV, and if its appearance indicates damage or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of the TV, and have the cord replaced with an exact replacement part by an authorized servicer.

Protect the power cord from physical or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted, kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall outlets, and the point where the cord exits the TV.

To prevent electric shock, do not use this polarized plug with an extension cord, receptical, or other outlet unless the blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.

Caution

Your TV should not be exposed to water (dripping or splashing) and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, should be placed on the apparatus.

9 Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10 Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

11 Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

12 Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus avoid injury from tip-over.

Problem Solution
No picture or sound.	Check all cable connections. Make sure that the TV is plugged in and turned on. Make sure that electricity is available at the AC power outlet.
Picture is OK, but no sound.	Check the volume level and mute settings. Switch to another channel to determine if the station is the problem.
No picture Make sure that the TV is working properly. Press the INPUT button to select TV input. Make sure the color system is set correctly.
Sound is OK, but no color.	Check the color control and adjust it. Check the program's color features, because it may be a black and white movie.
The picture has overlapped images.	Make sure that the antenna is installed correctly. If not, adjust the antenna toward the broadcasting station.
Picture has “snow.” Check the antenna and its connection. If there are problems, correct them. If all connections are tight, the problem may be with a faulty antenna or cable. Check whether car traffic or neon signs disturb the image.
Stripes on picture. Check for interference from other electronic devices, such as radios and televisions, and keep magnetic or electronic devices away from the TV.
Remote control does not work.	Change the batteries in the remote control. Remove any obstacles between the TV's IR sensor and the remote control.
Image is not clear. In VGA mode, adjust the PHASE control.
Image is not centered.	Adjust the Horizontal or Vertical control.
