Installing the TV

To set up your TV to use both a Cable Box and a direct-connect CATV cable:

1Connect the Cable TV cable to the TV’s VHF/UHF jack.

2Using a coaxial cable, connect the TV’s TO CONVERTER jack to the cable box’s IN jack. The TV’s internal converter allows you to switch between unscrambled signals coming straight into the TV and scrambled signals coming in through the cable box, eliminating the need for an external splitter.

3Using a coaxial cable, connect the cable box’s OUT jack to the TV’s AUX jack.
