ATTENTION:

POUR ÉVITER LES CHOC ÉLECTRIQUES, INTRODUIRE LA LAME LA PLUS LARGE DE LA FICHE DANS LA BORNE CORRESPONDANTE DE LA PRISES ET POUSSER JUSQU’AU FOND.

This TV is capable of receiving unscrambled digital programming for both cable and external UHF/VHF antenna (ATSC) and also can receive NTSC (cable and external UHF/VHF antenna) programs.

FCC NOTICE:

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Antenna

his TV has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without using a Cable TV converter box. Some

T 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 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.

FAQ:

I connected my cable, but why can’t I get channels above 69?

Make sure the TV (VHF/UHF Channels)/CA your cable company broadcasts channels in the range you are searching.

Are the cables included?

No, the cables are sold separately; visit your local electronics store.

OUTDOOR VHF/UHF ANTENNA CONNECTION (ANTENNA NOT INCLUDED)

Follow the instructions for the type of antenna system you intend to use. If using Cable or satellite, see the previous page.

Combination VHF/UHF Antenna (Single 75 ohm cable or 300 ohm twin-lead wire)

Connect the 75 ohm cable from combination VHF/UHF antenna to the antenna jack.

If your combination antenna has a 300 ohm twin-lead wire, use a 300-75 ohm matching transformer (NOT SUPPLIED).

Combination VHF/UHF Antenna (Separate VHF and UHF 300 ohm twin-leads)

Connect the UHF twin-lead wire to a combiner (NOT SUPPLIED). Connect the VHF twin-lead to a 300-75 ohm matching transformer (NOT SUPPLIED). Attach the transformer to the combiner. Attach the combiner to the antenna jack.

Separate VHF/UHF Antennas

Connect the 75 ohm cable from the VHF antenna and the UHF antenna twin-lead wire to a combiner (NOT SUPPLIED). Attach the combiner to the antenna jack. NOTE: If your VHF antenna has a twinlead wire, use a 300-75 ohm matching transformer, then connect the transformer to the combiner.

RECEIVING ATSC CHANNELS

You can connect to an outdoor antenna to receive the free ATSC digital channels. The size of the antenna you will need will depend on how far away the television station broadcast antennas are from you. The further the distance the larger the antenna you need. If your unsure of how far you are you can go to http://www.antennaweb.org and put in your zip code to search their database for your distance and the direction of the broadcast antennas. If you’re fairly close you may be able to get away with just a small antenna that will sit on top of your TV set. If you need a larger antenna you can either put one in the attic or outside on an antenna mast.

CONNECTION USING THE SIDE AUDIO/VIDEO IN JACKS

The optimal use for the side A/V jacks are to connect an A/V component that is used only occasionally, such as a camcorder or video game. Connect the Audio/Video output jacks of the external unit to the Audio 2 Input jacks and the Video 2 Input jack.

To access the unit connected to these jacks, press the INPUT button repeatedly until AV2 appears on the screen. resume normal TV viewing, simply press the INPUT repeatedly until the TV channel appears in the display.
