ation. The strength of the signal being received and your personal preference for picture detail will determine the optimum setting. SERVICE Your new Zenith television receiver is engineered for dependable long life service but like any mechanical or electrical instrument, it will occasionally require maintenance. For service consult your Zenith dealer or refer to the organization that installed your instrument. (See warranty.) Picture Adjustments BRIGHTNESS Rotate clockwise to increase the brightness; counterclockwise reduces the brightness. It is to be used in conjunction with the contrast control since its movement will also have an effect on picture contrast. [Illustration: FIG. 2] =NOTE:= The brightness control setting for the picture shown in Figure 2 is set too high. Set the control below this level. CONTRAST Adjust the picture for best distinction between the black and white shading. Your own vision is the best judge in setting this control properly. [Illustration: FIG. 3] =NOTE:= The contrast control setting for the picture shown in Figure 3 is set too high. Set the control below this level. HORIZONTAL HOLD CONTROL If the picture appears to have a tendency to move across the screen, or if it assumes a broken streaked appearance, as indicated in Figure 4, it should be readjusted to a point where the pictures remain locked in properly on all channels. [Illustration: FIG. 4] VERTICAL HOLD CONTROL This control is used in correcting for vertical movement, or rolling up or down. Set control to lock picture. (Fig. 5) [Illustration: FIG. 5] Interference The most effective means of reducing interference to a minimum has been built into your Zenith Television receiver. Occasionally however, the picture may be affected by electrical interference or reflections. AUTO IGNITION AND APPLIANCES Automobile ignition, electrical appliances, etc., cause a speckled streaked appearing picture as shown. This condition is most noticeable in weak signal areas. (Fig. 6.) [Illustration: FIG. 6] DIATHERMY Diathermy produces a distinctive herringbone pattern and one or two horizontal bands across the face of the picture. (Fig. 7). It can sometimes be reduced or eliminated by the insertion of a filter trap at the antenna terminals. [Illustration: FIG. 7] R.F.
