CABLE TV (CATV) CONNECTION
A 75-ohm coaxial cable connector is built into the set for easy hookup. When connecting the 75- ohm coaxial cable to
the set, screw the 75-ohmcable to the ANT. Terminal.
Some cable TV companies offer "premium pay channels". Since the signals of these premium pay channels are
scrambled, a cable TV converter/descrambler is generally provided tothe subscriber by thecable TV company.
This converter/descrambler is necessary for normal viewing of the scrambled channels. For more specific
instructions on installing cable TV, consult your cable TV company. One way to utilize the converter/descrambler
provided by your cable TV company is explained below. Please note: An RF switch provided withtwo inputs (Aand B)
is required (not supplied).

ANTENNAS
The antenna requirements for good color television reception are more important than those for black & white
television reception. For this reason,a good quality outdoorantenna is strongly recommended.
The following is a briefexplanation of the typeof connections that are provided with the various antenna systems.
1.A75-ohm system is generallya round cable with F-typeconnector that can easily
be attached to a terminalwithout tools (not supplied).
2. A 300-ohm system is a flat "twin-lead" cable that can be attached to a 75-ohm
terminal through a 300-75-ohm adapter(not supplied).
OUTDOOR ANTENNA CONNECTION
Use one of the following two diagrams if you connect an outdoor
antenna.
A: Using a VHF/UHF combinationoutdoor antenna.
B: Using separate VHF and/orUHF outdoor antennas.
Connect the outdoor antenna cable lead-in to the ANT. terminal
on the rear of theTV set.

Closed Captions
The unit decodes and displays the closed captions that are
broadcast with certain TV shows. These captions are usually
subtitles for the hearing impaired or foreign language
translations. All VCRs record the closed caption signal from
television programs, so home-recorded video tapes also
provide closed captions. Most prerecorded commercial video
tapes provide closed captions as well. Check for the closed
caption symbol in your television schedule and on the tape’s
packaging: .

Troubleshooting Guide
Reception disturbances
Most types of television interference can be remedied by adjusting the height and position of the VHF/UHF antenna.
Outdoor antennas are recommended for best results if not using cable. The most common types of
television interference are shown below. If one of these symptoms appear when the TV is connected to a Cable TV
system, the disturbance may becaused by the localcable company broadcast.
IGNITION:
Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, picture may flutter or drift.
Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon
lamps, electric drills and other electric appliances.
GHOSTS:
Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is
the direct path and the other is reflected from tall buildings, hills or
other objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may
improve the reception.
SNOW:
If your receiver is located in the fringe area of a television station
where the signal is weak, your picture may be marred by the
appearance of small dots. When the signal is extremely weak, it
maybe necessary to install an external antenna to improve the
picture.
RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE:
This interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks, and in
some cases, causes loss ofcontrast in the picture.
PICTURE SIZE VARIATION:
A slight picture size variation is quite normal when you adjust the
CONTRAST or BRIGHTNESS setting.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect your TV from the AC power source when cleaning. The finish on the
cabinet may be cleaned with a dust cloth and cared for as with furniture. Use caution when cleaning and wiping
the plastic parts. Mild soapand a soft, dampcloth may be used.
