Introduction
Other Key Features of Owning an rCa HDTV
RCA HDTV has been designed with features that will enhance your TV viewing experience, and
features that provide flexibility to build on the digital revolution that is taking place. A summary
of your TV’s most unique features follows. Go to Chapter 3 for more details on these and
additional features.
Integrated HDTV Tuner with Digital Cable ready QaM
RCA was the first to offer an integrated tuner with its HDTVs, which means there is no need for
another box to receive digital programming. Now, we’ve gone one better–your HDTV’s tuner is
digital cable ready, which means there is no need for a cable box to view unscrambled digital
cable programming. The CableCARD™ slot on your HDTV allows you to use a digital cable card
to access digital cable. The tuner is able to decode all formats of digital television broadcasts,
and it can interpret unscrambled digital cable signals because it includes QAM (Quadrature
Amplitude Modulation).
Note:
A digital cable card may be necessary to view scrambled (encrypted) channels.
Contact your cable provider for more information. Go to page 10 for more information.

Lamp replacement
DLP technology uses a special lamp. Eventually, you’ll need to replace this lamp,
which you can do yourself by following the instructions that come packed with
the new lamp. To order the correct lamp, you’ll need to know your TV’s model
number, serial number, and lamp type–this information is listed on the Service
Model Number sticker (example of the sticker is shown on the left). Face the
back of the TV. The sticker is located on the left side of the TV. For future
reference, write down the information in the space provided at the left.
