Connecting the TV
Connecting the aerial

equipment are unplugged from the mains
before making any connections
Place the TV on a stable fl at surface, which is out of direct
sunlight and away from any heat sources. In order to prevent
TV picture distortion, make sure you avoid close proximity to

and install a signal amplifi er (not supplied).
• If splitting the antenna for two TVs, use a 2-way signal
splitter (not supplied).

computer by using a VGA cable. The sound from
the personal computer can also be played through
