Installing the LCD TV
Refer to the owner's manual of any external equipment to be connected.
When connecting any external equipment, do not connect any AC power cords to wall outlets
until all other connections are completed.
Connecting a TV Cable or an Antenna
The antenna requirements for good color TV reception are more important than those for a black &
white TV reception. For this reason, a good quality outdoor antenna is strongly recommended
The foIiowing is a brief explanation of the type of connection that is provided with the various antenna
systems
