Basic Cable TV Connection

The Cable TV signal into your home may be a single cable (75 ohm ) or may include a Cable Box. In either case, the
connection to the TV is easy.

If your Cable TV signal comes directly via a 75 ohm coaxial cable, using the following steps:

Connect the Cable TV signal to the 75 ohm ANTENNA INPUT jack on the rear of the TV. Screw it down tight.

Plug the TV’s power cord into a power outlet and turn on the TV. Set TV/CATV to CATV as detailed on page 12. Refer

to AUTO SEARCH to set up your available TV channels. Details are on page 13.

If you have a Cable Box, use the following steps:

Connect the Cable TV signal to the IN jack on the Cable Box.

Connect a separate coaxial cable to the OUT jack on the Cable Box and to the 75 OHM ANTENNA INPUT jack on the

rear of the TV.

Plug the TV’s power cord into a power outlet and turn on the TV. Set TV/CATV to CATV as detailed on page 12.

Set the TV to channel 3 or 4 (the same as the channel 3/4 switch on your Cable Box if applicable).

Change channels at the Cable Box.

Helpful Hints

An RF coaxial cable (to connect the Cable Box
to the TV) may be supplied by the Cable TV
company. It is not supplied with the TV.

You can connect a Satellite Receiver the same
way you would connect a Cable Box.

Your Cable Box may have separate Audio and
Video Out jacks. If so, use audio and video
cables to connect the AUDIO/VIDEO OUT
jacks of the Cable Box to the AUDIO/VIDEO
INPUT jacks.

Press the INPUT button on the remote control
to set the TV to the correct video input
channel. For front inputs choose FRNT. For
rear AV inputs choose VIDEO.

Your model has an S-Video input, choose
S-VIDEO. Change the channel at the Cable
Box.

This model has component jacks (Y, Pb, Pr),
choose CMPT as your video input channel.

Basic Antenna Connection

A combination antenna receives normal broadcast channels (VHF 2-13 AND UHF 14-69). Your connection is easy since
you will connect the antenna to the 75 OHM ANTENNA INPUT jack on the rear of the TV.

If your antenna has a round cable (75 ohm) on the end, then you are ready to connect it to the TV. Go to the next step.

If your antenna has fl at twin-lead wire (300 ohm), you fi rst need to attach the antenna wires to the screws on a 300 to
75 ohm adapter (not supplied with your TV).

Push the round end of the adapter or antenna cable onto the 75 OHM ANTENNA INPUT jack on the rear of the TV. If

the round end of the antenna cable is threaded, screw it down tight.

Plug the TV’s power cord into a power outlet and turn on the TV. Set TV/CATV to TV mode as detailed on page 12.

Refer to AUTO SEARCH to set up your available TV channels. Details are on page 13.

Before plugging the UHF/VHF Rod Antenna into the
ANTENNA INPUT jack, check that the pin is not bent. If
it is bent, straighten the pin as illustrated, then plug the
pin into the jack.

Basic TV + VCR Connection

The basic component (VCR, DVD player etc.) to TV connection is described below. For other hookups, refer to your
component’s instruction manual.

Connect the audio cables (white and red) to the R and L AUDIO jacks on the TV and to the Audio output jacks on the
VCR (or other component). Match the cable color to the jack color.

Your component has Component Output Jacks (Y, Pb, Pr), connect three video grade cables to the Y, Pb, Pr

jacks on the component and to the Y, Pb, Pr jacks on the TV.

-OR-

Your component has an S-Video jack, connect an S-Video cable to the S-VIDEO jack on the back of the TV to

the S-Video jack on the component. If your component doesn’t have an S-Video jack go to item 4.

Connect a video cable (yellow) to the VIDEO INPUT jack on the TV and to the VIDEO OUT jack on your VCR (or other

component).

Turn on the TV and the component.

Press the INPUT button on the remote control until the correct video input channel appears in the upper right corner of

the TV screen. When you play material on a VCR, DVD player, etc. it will appear on the TV on the video input channel.

ANTENNA INPUT jack.

Note: Your rear panel layout might
differ slightly.

Use either the S-VIDEO jack or the VIDEO
INPUT jack. Do not use both at the same
time for the same piece of equipment. This
would interfere with the picture display. If
both are used, S-VIDEO has priority over the
yellow VIDEO INPUT jack.
