HOOKING UP YOUR TV (ANTENNA/CABLE CONNECTIONS)

A

combination antenna

receives normal broadcast
channels (VHF 2-13 and UHF
14-69). Your connection is easy
since there is only one 75Ω
(ohm) antenna jack on the
back of your TV - and that’s
where the antenna goes.

ANTENNA

COMBINATION UHF/VHF

To set the
TV to select only
the channel num­bers in your area,
see Auto Install on
page 4.

SMART
HELP

If your antenna has a

round connector (75Ω),

then you're ready to connect it
to the TV.

If your antenna has flat
twin-lead wire (300Ω), you

first need to attach the antenna
wires to the screws on a 300
to 75Ω adaptor.

Push the round end of
the adaptor (or cable) onto
the ANT(enna) IN jack on
the back of the TV. If the

round end of the adaptor or
cable is threaded, screw it
down tight.

Y

ou may have two separate

antennas. One antenna is
for VHF channels (2-13) and
the other antenna is for UHF
channels (14-69).
For homes with separate
UHF/VHF antennas, you will
need an optional combiner
before you can connect the
antennas to the TV.

CABLE/CABLE BOX

If you do not have a

Cable Box, then you're ready

to connect your Cable TV sig­nal to the TV. Go to step 2.

If you have a Cable Box:

Connect the Cable TV signal
to the IN jack on the Cable
Box.

If you do not have a

Cable Box, connect the Cable

ANT(enna) IN jack on the TV.

If you have a Cable Box:

Use a coaxial cable to connect
the OUT jack of the Cable Box

NOTE: The coaxial cable
might be supplied by the Cable

losed Captioning allows

you to read the voice con­tent of television programs on
the TV screen. Designed to
help the hearing impaired, this
feature uses on-screen text
boxes to show dialogue and
conversations while the TV
program is in progress.
Note: Broadcast stations will
often use spelling abbrevia­tions, symbols, dropouts and
other grammatical shortcuts in
order to keep pace with the
on-screen action. These factors
vary with the source of the
captioned text material and do
not indicate a need for TV

service.

Closed
Captions will be
interrupted briefly
when you mute or

Battery Safety

To prevent battery leakage
that may result in bodily injury
or damage to the unit:

• Install ALL batteries
correctly, with the + and ­markings on the battery
aligned as indicated on the
unit;

• Do not mix batteries, for
example, old with new or
carbon with alkaline; and

• Remove batteries when the
unit will not be used for a
long time.

Remote Doesn't Work

• Check batteries. Replace with AA Heavy
Duty (Zinc Chloride) or Alkaline
batteries if necessary.

• Clean the remote and the remote sensor
on the TV. See page 4.

• Check the TV power cord.

SmartLock

• Programming may be rated by the Motion Picture Association of America
(MPAA) or according to the Television Parental Guidelines. In order to block any
inappropriate programming, set your limits in both places (Movie Ratings and
Parental Guidelines).

• If you enter the access code once, you may change channels without seeing the
“CHANNEL XX BLOCKED” message again. If you turn off the TV power, you
will be asked for the access code again when you tune to a blocked channel.

• If the power fails, the default code, 0711, will be the active access code again.
Ratings will remain blocked even after a power failure.

• If you connect the power cord to an AC outlet that is controlled by a wall
switch, your personal access code will be erased every time you turn off the
power at the wall switch. The default code will be the active code again.

• To restore 0711 as your personal access code, unplug the TV’s power cord for
10 seconds, then plug it in again.
