Connections & Setup
Plug in the TV
Plug the flat end of the cable into the power jack on the back of the TV. Then plug the end of the power cord into an appropriate wall outlet. Be sure to insert the plug completely. Do not plug into an outlet controlled by a light switch. The TV needs some power to acquire guide listings, do recordings, etc.
Note: When you first plug your TV into an outlet, the Power LED indicator on the front panel will light for approximately 15 seconds and then go off during the initialization of the TV. The TV can only be turned on after the Power LED indicator goes off. This happens every time power is reapplied to the TV.
