Setup and Quick Use Guide
NOTE: This owner's manual is used with several differ­ent television models. Not all features (and drawings) dis­cussed in this manual will necessarily match those found with your television set. This is normal and does not require that you contact your dealer or request service.
WARNING: TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZ­ARD DO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO RAIN OR EXCESSIVE MOISTURE.
ANTENNA OR
CABLE TV
Connect two lengths of
RF coaxial cable to the two
output plugs on the two-way signal splitter. The two lengths of RF coaxial cable must have F-type connectors (screw-on or push type) on their ends.
Connect one of the RF
coaxial cables coming from
two-way signal splitter to the PIP ANT(enna) “B” input on the back of the TV and the other RF coaxial cable to the ANT(enna) “A” input on the back of the TV.
Y
our TV has two separate ANT(enna)/cable inputs
on the back of the set. These two signal inputs offer conven­ient hookup options for both normal TV program viewing and Picture-In-Picture (PIP) features.
The ANT(enna) “A” input is intended for use and viewing
on the TV’s main screen. Your home’s primary antenna or cable TV signal should be con­nected to this input for normal TV setup, use, and feature operation.
The PIP ANT(enna) “B” input is a second, or auxiliary,
signal source included for your TV’s Picture-In-Picture (PIP) feature. For many homes, the use of a single existing anten­na or cable TV source for both ANT(enna)“A” and PIP ANT(enna) “B” will be the preferred method of connection (see illustration to the right). This type of connection (optional signal splitter required) will work properly for the TV’s main on-screen features, as well as retain all the features designed for PIP. For more details on PIP, refer to pages 49–52 in the Directions for Use manual that came with your set.
ANTENNA A AND B INPUTS
NOTE: Proper operation of your TV is not dependent upon the connection of the PIPANT(enna) “B” input. The main purpose of the
input is to provide an easily connected, dedicated picture source for the PIP feature. You can, however, use the PIPANT(enna) “B” input to connect and display other signal sources such as an outdoor or indoor antenna or a video game player.
Although the PIPANT(enna) “B” input can be used and swapped as the source for the TV’s main picture, certain setup features (such as AutoChron) are based only on your TV’s detecting a signal at the ANT(enna) “A” input. To ensure that all features are operating proper­ly, you may not want to rely solely on the PIPANT(enna) “B” input as your TV’s main screen signal source.

Connect a cable TV
signal to a 75-ohm two-way
signal splitter (an optional accessory).
Or Connect an outdoor or
indoor antenna signal to the
75-ohm two-way signal split­ter. If your antenna has flat twin-lead wire (300 ohm), you must first attach the antenna wires to the screws on a 300­to 75-ohm adapter before con­necting to the two-way signal splitter.

HELP
Contact your dealer,
or our Parts Information Center at 1-800-851-8885 to order the following acces­sories: two-way signal split­ter, RF coaxial cable, 300­ohm to 75-ohm adapter, combination VHF/UHF antenna.
You can treat the output connection of a satel­lite receiver as you would a standard antenna or cable TV signal, except the satellite signal should not be split as shown in the illustration to the right. The satellite signal should go directly into the ANT(enna) “A” input con­nection on the back of the TV. Then, if you would like, use the PIPANT(enna) “B” input connection for either an outdoor/indoor antenna or cable TV signal. Refer to the owner’s manual for the satel­lite box to get further infor­mation on connections.
Run Auto Program to store in the TV’s memory only the channels with active broad­cast stations. See page 5 for details.

T
he S(uper)-Video con-
nection on the back and side panels of your TV can provide you with better pic­ture detail and clarity for the playback of accessory devices such as DVDs, satellite receivers, VCRs, and video game players than the AV (composite video) or antenna connections.

omponent Video inputs
provide the highest pos­sible color and picture reso­lution in the playback of digital signal source materi­al, such as the kind avail­able from DVD players. The color difference signals (Pb, Pr) and the luminance (Y) signal are connected and received separately, allow­ing for improved color bandwidth information not possible through AV (com­posite video) or S-Video connections. Following are the steps for making Component Video input con­nections and viewing the video source on TV.
S-VIDEO
Use an S-Video cable
to connect the S-VIDEO OUT(put) of the DVD or other accessory device to the S-VIDEO input on the back of the TV.
Use audio cables to con-
nect the L(eft) and R(ight) AUDIO OUT(puts) on the accessory device to the L(eft) and R(ight) AV2 IN(puts) for AUDIO on the back of the TV.
Turn the TV and acces-
sory device on.
Press the AV button on
the remote control or the Source Select button on the TV until you access the AV 2 source. Then play the video source you have connected.
COMPONENT
VIDEO

cables to connect the
Component Video Inputs (Y, Pb, Pr) on the back of the DVD or other accessory device to the Y, Pb, Pr inputs on the back of theTV.
Use audio cables to con-
nect the L(eft) and R(ight) AUDIO OUT(puts) on the back of the accessory device to the L(eft) and R(ight) AV1 IN(puts) for AUDIO on the back of the TV.
Turn the TV and acces-
sory device on.
Press the AV button on
the remote control or the Source Select button on the TV until you access the CVI source. Then play the video source you have connected.
