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

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

antennas. One antenna is
for VHF channels (2-13) and
the other antenna is for UHF

For homes with separate

need an optional combiner
before you can connect the
antennas to the TV.

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 CAPTIONING

Captions will be
delayed briefly when
