HOOKING UP THE TV

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 75Ω input on the TV. Screw it down finger tight.

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 75Ω (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 75Ω (ohm) plug on the back of the TV. If the round end of the antenna wire is threaded, screw it down finger tight.

Antenna Connection:

Outdoor or Indoor Antenna (Combination VHF/UHF)

The combination antenna receives normal

broadcast channels 2-13 (VHF) and 14-69 (UHF).
