ANTENNA OR CABLE TV

ANT(ENNA) A & B INPUTS

Your TV has two sepa- rate ANT(enna)/Cable

inputs on the rear of the set. These two signal inputs offer convenient hook-up options for both normal TV program view- ing and Picture-In-Picture (PIP) features.

The ANT(enna) A input is

intended for use and view- ing on the TV’s main screen. Your home’s prima- ry Antenna, or Cable TV signal, should be connect- ed to this input for normal TV setup, use and feature operation.

The ANT(enna) B input is

asecond, or auxiliary sig- nal source, designed to supply your TV’s Picture- In-Picture (PIP) feature. For many homes the use of a single existing Antenna (or Cable TV) source, for both ANT A and B, will be the preferred method of connection. This type of connection (optional Signal Splitter required) will work properly for the TV’s Main on-screen fea- tures, as well as retain all the features designed for PIP. For more details refer to the Picture-In-Picture section in your other owner’s manual.
