Basic Cable TV Connection

The Cable TV signal into your home may be a single cable (75 ohm) or may include a Cable

Box. In either case, the connection to the TV is easy.

If your Cable TV signal comes directly via a 75coaxial cable, use the following steps.

1 Connect the Cable TV signal to the

75 OHM ANTENNA INPUT jack on the rear of the TV. Screw it down tight.

2 Plug the TV’s power cord into a power outlet and turn on the TV. Set TV/CABLE to CABLE as detailed on page 11.

Refer to AUTO PROGRAM to set up your available TV channels. Details are on page 12.

If you have a Cable Box, use the following steps.

1 Connect the Cable TV signal to the IN jack on the Cable Box.

2 Connect a separate coaxial cable to the OUT jack on the Cable Box and to the 75 OHM ANTENNA INPUT jack on the rear of the TV.

3 Plug the TV’s power cord into a power outlet and turn on the TV. Set TV/CABLE to CABLE as detailed on page 11.

Helpful Hints

An RF coaxial cable (to con- nect the Cable Box to the TV) may be supplied by the Cable TV company. It is not supplied with the TV.

You can connect a Satellite Receiver the same way you would connect a Cable Box.

Your Cable Box may have separate Audio and Video Out jacks instead. If so, use audio and video cables to connect the AUDIO/VIDEO OUT jacks of the Cable Box to the AUDIO/VIDEO IN 2 jacks on the rear of the TV.

Press TV/AV/EXIT on the TV’s remote control to set the TV to the VIDEO 2 channel. Change TV channels at the Cable Box.
