Cable (CATV)/satellite connections
This TV has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without using a Cable TV converter box.
Some Cable TV companies offer "premium pay channels" in which the signal is scrambled. Descrambling these
signals for normal viewing requires the use of a descrambler device which is generally provided by the cable
company.
FOR SUBSCRIBERS TO BASIC CABLE TV SERVICE
For basic cable service not requiring a converter/descrambler box,
connect the CATV 75 ohm coaxial cable to the VHF/UHF jack on the
rear of the TV.
FOR SUBSCRIBERS TO SCRAMBLED CABLE TV SERVICE OR SATELLITE
If you subscribe to a satellite service or a cable TV service which requires the use of a converter/
descrambler box, connect the incoming 75 ohm coaxial cable to the converter/descrambler box. Using
another 75 ohm cable, connect the output of the converter/descrambler or satellite box to the antenna jack
on the TV. Follow the connections shown below. Set the TV/VCR to the output channel of the
converter/descrambler or satellite box (usually 3 or 4) and use the converter/descrambler or satellite box to
select channels.

FOR SUBSCRIBERS TO UNSCRAMBLED BASIC CABLE TV SERVICE
WITH SCRAMBLED PREMIUM CHANNELS
If you subscribe to a satellite service or a cable TV service in which basic channels are unscrambled and
premium channels require the use of a converter/descrambler box, you may wish to use a signal splitter
and an A/B switch box (available from the cable company or an electronic supply store). Follow the
connections shown below. With the switch in the "B" position, you can directly tune any nonscrambled
channels on your TV. With the switch in the "A" position, tune your TV to the output of the
converter/descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the converter/descrambler box to tune
scrambled channels.

Troubleshooting Guide(continued)
Reception disturbances
Most types of television interference can be remedied by adjusting the height and position of the VHF/UHF antenna.
Outdoor antennas are recommended for best results if not using cable or a satellite. The most common types of
television interference are shown below. If one of these symptoms appear when the TV is connected to a Cable TV
system, the disturbance may be caused by the local cable company broadcast.
IGNITION:
Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, picture may flutter or drift.
Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon
lamps, electric drills and other electric appliances.
GHOSTS:
Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is the
direct path and the other is reflected from tall buildings, hills or other
objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve the
reception.
SNOW:
If your receiver is located in the fringe area of a television station where the
signal is weak, your picture may be marred by the appearance of small dots.
When the signal is extremely weak, it maybe necessary to install an
external antenna to improve the picture.
RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE:
This interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks, and in some
cases, causes loss of contrast in the picture.
PICTURE SIZE VARIATION:
A slight picture size variation is quite normal when you adjust the
CONTRAST or BRIGHTNESS setting.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect your unit from the AC power source when cleaning. The finish on the
receiver may be cleaned with a dust cloth and cared for as other furniture. Use caution when cleaning and wiping
the plastic parts. Mild soap and a soft, damp cloth may be used.
