Your cable company scrambles all channels, which requires you to use a cable box.
You do not have a VCR. (If you have a VCR, see pages 34 and 36.)
Use the remote control to change channels coming through the cable box to the TV's VHF/UHF jack. (You must first program the remote control for your specific cable box, see page 60.)
With this connection, all channels come into the TV through your cable box and
only one unscrambled signal is sent to the TV, so you cannot use the dual picture
features. If some of your channels are scrambled, but others are not, consider using
the "(;able Box and (;able" connection on page 31 instead.
