Select the Input Source for the HDTV by pressing the INPUT

Now follow the procedure below to display channels from a
different signal (External TV Tuner, VCR, Cable Box or Satellite
Receiver) source, using different inputs at the back of you TV set.

connector, Composite (Yellow, Red and White) connectors,
Component (Red, Green, Blue plus Red and White) connectors, HDMI connectors or
Separate-Video (S-Video) plus Red and White connectors (if applicable). Make the physical
connection or hook up.

Note: Composite (AV) and S-Video Cables can only be used for SD (480i) pictures.

picture on your TV set. If there is not picture, make sure you have selected the correct input
on the TV set.
d. If the selected input is RF, you should be aware that the TV set needs to be on either channel
3 or channel 4 matching the channel which has been selected on the back of the VCR, Cable
Box, External TV Tuner or Satellite Receiver; please refer to Owner or User’s Manual of such
equipment for details.
NOTE: Your HDTV will display the television station or program selected by the cable box, VCR, external
tuner, or satellite receiver. Use the remote control that came with that component to cha nge programs or
channels. If the service being used is the one which setup includes a box with two outputs for two
different (distant) rooms, then scanning channels will help you to find the signal. Be aware that the
channel to be selected varies from provider to provider. You may have to call your provider to get the
specific channel when using your HDTV. Some examples of these channels are 105, 106, 115, and 116.
