Connecting Cable TV

To connect to a cable TV system, follow the instructions below.

Cable without a Cable Box

1.Plug the incoming cable into the ANT 2 IN (CABLE) terminal on the back of the TV.

➢ Because this TV is cable-ready, you do not need a cable box to view unscrambled cable channels.

ANT OUT

➢ This terminal might be labeled “ANT OUT”, “VHF OUT” or simply, “OUT”.

2.Connect the other end of this cable to the ANT 2 IN (CABLE) terminal on the back of the TV.

Connecting to a Cable Box that Descrambles Some Channels

If your cable box descrambles only some channels (such as premium channels), follow the instructions below. You will need a two-way splitter, an RF (A/B) switch, and four lengths of Antenna cable. (These items are available at most electronics stores.)

After you have made this connection, set the A/B switch to the “A” position for normal viewing. Set the A/B switch to the “B” position to view scrambled channels. (When you set the A/B switch to “B”, you will need to tune your TV to the cable box’s output channel, which is usually channel 3 or 4.)
