Built-in Antenna
Be sure that Rod ANT. Wire is connected to EXT. ANT. ter
minal using 300-75 ohm adapter.
Extend the telescopic antenna and adjust its direction,
length and angle for best reception.
Outdoor Antenna
If reception from the built-in rod antenna is unsatisfactory,
you can use the antenna terminal on the back of the TV to
connect an external antenna.
Before you make one of the connections as described be
low, fold the telescopic antenna into place.
UHF/VHF Connector
The single 75 ohm connector for UHFA/HF provides an
easy and quick connection of your antenna or cable sys
tem. The following examples describe the different ways
for connecting various antenna systems.
Antenna Lead-In
There are two possible types of wires coming in from your
antenna or cable system, either 300 ohm twin lead cable
or 75 ohm coaxial cable.
Connecting Rod Ant.
■ Rod Ant. Wire
1. If your antenna has a twin lead cable, you must use an
adapter (supplied) like the one shown in the illustration.
First attach the antenna wires to the screws on the
adapter; then push the end of the adapter onto the ter
minal on the back of the TV.

To order any optional accessories contact your dealer or call the toll-free accessory ordering number (1-800-292-6066).
AC Power
Your TV operates on 120 volts, 60 Hz {normal household current) and has a polarized plug. If you are unable to insert the
plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. Do not defeat the safety feature of this polarized plug.
External Power Input Terminal
A DC car adapter cord is included with your TV. This cord
can be connected to the DC 12 V input terminal on the
back of the set. The other end of the cord can plug into
the cigarette lighter socket of your car, as illustrated. The
TV will operate using this DC power source, in the same
manner as AC power.
IMPORTANT: The polarity of the DC 12V input terminal is
of a nonconventional nature. Attaching a DC power cord
of reverse polarity will cause the 4 amp fuse to blow.
Therefore, use the DC car adapter cord included with your
TV.
NOTES FOR CAR USE
1. While the car is moving, it may be difficult to obtain good reception due to signal variations.
2. Under the following conditions it is recommended to operate the TV with the engine idling.
a) Very low outside temperatures may cause difficult engine starts.
b) Viewing the receiver for more than just a few hours. (For personal safety when in a vehicle with engine idling always
keep a window slightly open to prevent from possibly being overcome by engine fume leaks.)
3. Do not operate the set when starting the engine to avoid overloading the engine.
4. When finished viewing, turn off POWER and disconnect DC car cord from cigarette lighter. Failure to do so may dis
charge your car battery.
5. Always keep the cigarette lighter socket of the car clean. If the socket is dirty with cigarette ash, the resulting bad contact
may overheat the car cord plug.
