Watching cable TV programs that don’t require the use of a cable box.

Since you’ve connected the cable TV signal directly to the TV’s tuner, you can also watch unscrambled programs by simply tuning to

the desired channel; however, you must first use Auto program to store available channels in the TV’s memory. (p. 13)

Note: This connection will supply stereo sound to the TV if the station you are viewing broadcasts stereo sound.

- Cable TV

Connect the cable TV signal to the CABLE/

ANTENNA 75 jack at the bottom of the TV. See page 14 for details on using Autoprogram to store channels in the TV’s memory.

Note: This connection will supply stereo sound to the TV if the station you are viewing broadcasts stereo sound.

- Cable box with RF IN/OUT

Connect the incoming cable TV signal to the cable IN jack on the back of the cable box.

Connect a coaxial cable (not supplied) from the TO TV jack on the back of the cable box to the CABLE/

ANTENNA 75 jack at the bottom of the TV. Note: Your cable box may have a different label for the TO TV jack. Commonly used labels include OUTPUT or OUT.

Set the OUTPUT CH switch on the cable box to CH 3 or 4 (whichever is correct for your cable box), Next, tune the TV to the corresponding channel. Once tuned,change channels using the cable box, not the TV.

Note: This connection will not supply stereo sound to the TV. The reason is that the RF output on a cable box - labeled TO TV, OUT or OUTPUT for example - will not send a stereo signal to the tuner (VHF/UHF) input on a TV.

- Cable box with A/V outputs

• Connect the incoming cable TV signal to a signal

splitter (not supplied). The signal splitter enables you to avoid having to use the TO TV jack on the back of the cable box. This jack will not supply stereo sound to the TV.

Note: Your cable box may have a different label for the TO TV jack. Commonly used labels include OUTPUT or OUT.

• Connect a coaxial cable (not supplied) to a connector on the signal splitter and to the CABLE/ANTENNA 75 jack on the TV.

Connect another coaxial cable (not supplied) to a connector on the signal splitter and to the cable IN jack on the back of the cable box.

Connect A/V cables (not supplied) to the VIDEO and AUDIO L and R outputs on the back of the cable box and to the AV2 video (labeled VIDEO) and AUDIO (labeled L and R) jacks on the back of the TV.

To view programs from your cable box, first press the AV button on the remote control.

Press the cursor down or up buttons until the AV2 signal source is selected.

Press the OK button to confirm your selection. The AV2 input source becomes current for the viewing of cable TV programs through your cable box.

Note: If your cable box audio/video outputs do not supply video and stereo audio to the TV, you will need to make the connection shown above in “Cable box with RF IN/OUT.
