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
Antenna Connection
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 following is a brief explanation of the type of connection that is provided with the various antenna
systems.
■ A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable (not included) with F-
type connector that can easily be attached to a terminal without
tools.
F-type connector
75-ohm coaxial cable (round)
■ A 300- ohm system is a at twin-lead cable (not included) that can
be attached to a 75-ohm terminal through a 300-75-ohm adapter
(not included).

Cable TV (CATV) Connection
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the
National Electrical Code (NEC) that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular,
specifi es that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building
accurately, or as close to the point of cable entry as possible. Use of this TV for other than
private viewing of programs broadcasted on UHF, VHF or transmitted by cable companies for
the use of the general public may require authorization from the broadcast/cable company, and/
or program owner.
■ A 75-ohm coaxial cable connector is built into the set for easy hookup.
When connecting the 75-ohm coaxial cable to the set, connect the 75-
ohm cable into the ANT. terminal.
■ Some cable TV companies o er premium pay channels. Since the
signals of these premium pay channels are scrambled, a cable TV
converter/descrambler is generally provided to the subscriber by the
cable TV company.
This converter/descrambler is necessary for normal viewing of scrambled channels.
(Set your TV to channel 3 or 4, typically one of these channels is used. If this is unknown,
consult your cable TV company.)
For more specifi c instructions on installing cable TV, consult your cable TV company.
One possible method of connecting the converter/descrambler provided by your cable TV
company is shown in the diagram below.

For better sound quality, you may want to use a Home Theater/Stereo System.
NOTE: If you have a Home Theater/Stereo System that you would like to use with your new TV, we
recommend that you do NOT use your TV’s audio output for this connection. For the best sound
quality, our product testing has shown that you should connect your Home Theater/Stereo System
directly to your A/V device. I.E. You should connect your Home Theater/Stereo System to your DVD
player, Cable/Satellite box or other AV equipment. Although not recommended, if you prefer to use
the TV audio output to make this connection to your Home Stereo System, please follow the

Programming Your Remote Control
PROGRAMMING YOUR REMOTE CONTROL
Your remote lets you control four devices with one easy-to-use, compact unit. After installing
batteries, you can program the remote to control your Universal TV, VCR or DVD, Cable or Satellite
Receivers, Amplifi er or Tuner, and Auxiliary devices. To do so, follow the instructions in
“Programming a Device”. For best results, please read and follow all the remaining instructions.
Keep this guide for future reference.
A Quick Look at Programming a Device
To control VCR or DVD, Cable or Satellite Receivers, Amplifi er or Tuner, and Auxiliary devices,
follow these steps. Before proceeding, fi nd the codes for the devices you want to program in
“Manufacturer’s Codes” on the right side of this page and write them down or highlight them.
To program a DVD Player, TV/DVD Combo, TV/VCR/DVD Combo, portable DVD
player, or mobile DVD player, use the DVD key.
Turn on the device (for example, DVD player) and, if needed, load media (for
example, a DVD).
Press a device key (VCR/DVD, CBL/ SAT, or AUX).
Press and hold SET UP until the red LED blinks twice; then release.
Enter the fi rst fi ve-digit code for your device. The LED blinks once as each digit is
entered. If the code is correct, the LED blinks twice.
If the LED does not blink twice, repeat steps 2 to 4 and try entering the
code again.
Aim the remote at the device and press . The device should turn off. If it does not,
repeat steps 3–5, trying each code for your brand until you fi nd one that works. If
you cannot fi nd a code that works, see “Searching for Your Code”.
Repeat steps 1–5 for the other devices you want to control. For future reference,
write down each working device code below:
AUX Code:
CBL Code:
CD Code:
DVD Code:
SAT Code:
TNR Code:
VCR Code:
Press set to save and exit.
48
Programming Your Remote Control
Searching for your Code
If your device does not respond to the remote after trying all codes listed for your brand, or if
your brand is not listed, try searching for your code:
Press a device key once.
Press and hold SET UP until the red LED blinks twice; then release.
Enter 9-9-1, then the device group number (0= Cable, 1= TV, 2= VCR, 3= Audio).
The LED blinks twice.
Aim the remote at the device and press . The remote sends IR codes from its
library to the selected device, starting with the most popular code fi rst. If the device
responds, go to step 7.
If the device does not respond, press CH▲. The remote will try the next code.
Continue until the device responds. Press CH▼ to try the previous code.
To search for other device codes, repeat steps 1 to 5.
Press SET UP to save and exit.
Checking the Codes
If you have set up the remote using the procedure in “Searching for Your Code”, you may need to fi nd
out which four-digit code is operating your equipment.
ENGLISHENGLISHENGLISH
For example, to fi nd out which code is assigned to your TV:
Press TV once.
Press and hold SET UP until the red LED blinks twice; then release.
Enter 9-9-0. The LED blinks twice.
To view the code for the fi rst digit, press 1. Count the LED blinks (for example, three
blinks = 3), and write down the number in the appropriate code listing in step 8
under “Programming a Device”.
If a code digit is 0, the LED does not blink.
Repeat step 4 for the four remaining digits, using 2 for the second digit, 3 for the
third digit, 4 for the fourth digit, and 5 for the fi fth digit.
Changing Volume Lock
The remote comes preset to allow independent volume control of each selected device (Global Volume
Unlock). However, you may change the Volume Lock setting to Global Volume Lock so that one
device’s volume will control volume in all other modes. After that, you can perform Individual Volume
Unlock on a selected device to set its volume control for independent operation or Global Volume
Unlock to remove all volume locking.

Enter 9-9-3 and then press the mode key for the device you want to control volume (for
example,TV). The LED blinks twice. Now when you press VOL+, VOL-, or Mute, the selected
device (for example, TV) will control the volume regardless of the current mode.
Unlocking All Volume Control (Restoring Global Unlock)
Press and hold SET UP until the red LED blinks twice; then release.
Enter 9-9-3 and then press VOL+. The LED blinks four times.
Volume is now independently controlled for all programmed devices.
Unlocking a Single Device’s Volume Control

An entry error has occurred (for example, wrong key). Try entry
sequence again.
Try all listed codes for the device. Make sure the device operates with

change channels, press Enter on this remote after entering the
channel number.
