It is very important to connect the incoming cabl e
for your primary viewing source to ANT-1, especially
for CableCARD™ use and to download TV Guide On
Screen® listings.
1. Connect the primary incoming coaxial le ad cable to
ANT 1/MAIN on the TV back panel.
2. For an optional secondary antenna source, connect
an antenna (or cable) to ANT 2/AUX.
3. If you have subscribed to a CableCARD™ service,
the CableCARD can now be inserted into the
CableCARD SLOT. Using a Phillips screwdriver,
remove the CableCARD cover screws. Insert the
CableCARD, then replace the cover and screws. The
top of the card should face in the direction the CARD
TOP arrow indicates.
Additional CableCARD information is on page 84.
Detailed TV Guide On Screen information is in th e
separate User’s Manual.
