Getting Started

Connecting the TV

Cable System or VHF/UHF Antenna System
Cable Box/Digital Cable Box

zTo change channels using the cable box, set your TV to channel 3 or 4 depending on the cable box channel output.

Auto Scan will fix the channel automatically.

To display clear crisp pictures, you must connect your TV correctly and select the correct Wide Mode to display the picture in the correct aspect ratio (see “Changing the Wide Screen Mode” on page 20). It is strongly recommended to connect the antenna/cable input using the supplied 75-ohm coaxial cable to receive optimum picture quality signal. A 300-ohm twin lead cable can be easily affected by radio noise and the like, resulting in signal deterioration. If you use a 300-ohm twin lead cable, keep it as far away from the TV as possible.

You can also connect a variety of optional equipment to your TV (see page 13). For multiple equipment connections, please refer to the Quick Setup Guide.
