the desired channel; however, you must first use Auto program to store available channels in the TV’s memory. (p. 13)

Note: This connection will supply stereo sound to the TV if the station you are viewing broadcasts stereo sound.

ANTENNA 75 jack at the bottom of the TV. See page 14 for details on using Autoprogram to store channels in the TV’s memory.
