Your new TV is provided with a special slot called a CableCARD™ which means that you do not need a separate set top box to receive digital cable SDTV and HDTV programs. However it is still possible to connect a set top box to your TV.

The CableCARD, which will be available from your cable system operator, is designed only for that particular digital cable TV system. If you need to get digital cable TV from a different system, simple swap your old CableCARD for a new one.

Cable systems can provide a wide range of digital TV programs and even specialized digital audio channels.

Cable TV systems can offer many local-interest channels you won’t see off-air or from a satellite broadcast. Examples include local school and community access channels.

CableCARD™ *

A CableCARD is a removable card distributed by cable companies, that is inserted into the CableCARD slot at the bottom of your television. CableCARD allows you to tune digital and high definition scrambled or encrypted cable channels through the cable antenna. Consult your cable company on the availability of CableCARD. The CableCARD is required to receive premium digital TV channels and services (where available) through the cable.

A CableCARD functionality includes conditional access and copy protection. See settings menu, CableCARD applications, p. 18.

Note: Do not insert a PCMCIA card into the CableCARD slot.
