CABLE/CABLE BOX TV

Your Cable TV input into your home may be a single (75 ohm) cable or use a cable box decoder. In either case the connec-

tion is very simple. Follow the steps below to connect your cable signal to your new television.

Direct Cable Connections:

This connection will supply Stereo sound to the TV.

1 Connect the open end of the round Cable Company sup- plied cable to the 75input on the bottom of the TV. Screw it down finger tight.

2 Using a separate round coaxial cable, connect one end to the

OUT(put) (TO TV) plug on the back of the Cable Box.

3 Connect the other end of the round coaxial cable to the 75input on the bottom of the television. Screw it down fin- ger tight.

NOTE: Be sure to set the OUTPUT CHANNEL SWITCH on the back of the cable box to CH 3 or 4, then tune the cable box on the TV to the corresponding channel. Once tuned, change channels at the cable box, not the television.

2 Using an RCA type Video Cable, connect one end of the cable to the Video (yellow) (or ANT, your cable box may be labeled differently) Out jack on the cable box and the other end to the Video end of the composite adapter included with the TV.

3 Using an RCA type Audio Left and Right Cable, connect one end to the left and right Audio Out L & R jacks (red & white) on the cable box. Connect the other ends to the Audio end of the composite adapter cable included with the TV. Connect the adapter into the AV In jack on the bottom of the TV.

NOTE: Use the AV+ button and the Number 1 button on the TV remote control to tune to the AV1 channel for the cable box signal. Once tuned, change channels at the cable box, not the television. Pressing the AV+ button repeatedly will scroll all the AV Input chan- nels, including the presently tuned channel.

ANTENNA TV

Acombination antenna receives normal broadcast chan- nels (VHF 2–13 and UHF 14–69). Your connection is easy because there is only one 75(ohm) antenna plug on

the back of your TV, and that’s where the antenna goes.

1 If your antenna has a round cable (75 ohm) on the end, then you're ready to connect it to the TV.

If your antenna has flat, twin-lead wire (300 ohm), you first need to attach the antenna wires to the screws on a 300- to 75-ohm adapter.

2 Push the round end of the adapter (or antenna) onto the 75(ohm) plug on the bottom of the TV. If the round end of the antenna wire is threaded, screw it down finger tight.
