Select CABLE or antenna (ANT) mode by pressing ANT on the remote control.

To receive channels with an antenna, you need to turn your Cable to OFF (see page 40) and perform the Auto Program function (see page 41).

Cable Box and Cable

This is the preferred basic cable TV hookup to use if:

Your cable TV company scrambles some channels, but not all of them (pay channels vs. regular cable channels), and you need to use a cable box, and

You want to enjoy the PIP feature.

This connection applies to all models except KV-36FS12.

With this setup you can:

Use the TV remote control to change channels using your cable box when the signal is scrambled.

Use the TV remote control to change channels using your TV when the signal is not scrambled. (Your TV’s tuner provides a better signal than the cable box.)

Use the PIP feature. (When all channels are routed through your cable box, only one signal is sent to the TV, so you cannot use the PIP feature.)
