HELPFUL HINT

Your TV remote is capable of oper- ating accessory devices such as cable boxes. See the sections on “Programming the Remote Control” and “Operating Accessory Devices with the TV Remote” in the Directions for Use manual that came with the TV.

Watching Cable TV Programs That

Don’t Require the Cable Box

Since you’ve connected the cable TV signal directly to the TV’s tuner (step 2 above), you can also watch the unscrambled pro- grams by simply tuning to the desired channel. You must first use Autoprogram, however, to store channels in the TV’s memory. See page 7.

NOTE: This connection will supply stereo sound to the TV if it is being broadcast by the station you are watching.

Antenna

Connect the incoming antenna signal to the ANTENNA IN 75jack on the back of the TV. See page 7 for details on using Autoprogram to store channels in the TV’s memory.

NOTE: This connection will supply stereo sound to the TV if it is being broadcast by the station you are watching.
