Chapter 2: Connecting your TV

Connecting a VCR and Cable box

You will need:

￿one signal splitter

￿five coaxial cables

￿two sets of standard A/V cables

¥For better picture performance from your VCR: If your VCR has S-video, connect an S-video cable (plus the audio cables) instead of the standard video cable. Do not connect an S-video cable and a standard video cable to VIDEO 1 at the same time or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

¥If you have a mono VCR, connect L/MONO on the TV (VIDEO 1) to your VCRÕs audio out terminal using the white audio cable only.

¥When you use a Cable box, you may not be able to use the remote control to program or access certain features on the TV.

￿To view basic Cable channels and use the TVÕs features:

Select the ANT 1 video input source on the TV.* Use the TV controls (top panel or remote control) to change channels and access the TV’s features.

￿To view basic and premium Cable channels:

Turn OFF the VCR. Select the ANT 2 video input source on the TV.* Tune the TV to channel 3 or 4 (whichever channel is vacant in your area). Use the Cable box controls to change channels.
