* Place batteries with their terminals corresponding to the (+) and (-) indications

- Different types of batteries have different characteristics DO not mix batteries of different types
" Do not mix otd and new batteries Mixing old and new batteries can shorten the life of new batteries and/or cause old

batteries to leak chemicals

* Remove batteries as soon as they are depteted Chemicals that leak from baltedee can cause a rash if chemical

leakage is Iound, wipe it oft with a cloth

The antenna requirements for good color television reception are more important than these forblack & white lelevia[on
reception For th}a reason, a good quality ouldoor antenna ts strongly recommended

The following is a brieI exptanatien of the type o! connections that are p_'owided with the various antenna systems

1 A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type connector that can easily

be attached to a te_'minalwithout lools (not eupp!ied)

. Some cable TV companies alter "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/descrambter is necessary tar normal viewing of the scrambled channeJs (Set your TV to channe_ 3

or 4, typically one of these channels is used it"this is unknown, consult your cable TV company ) For more
specific instructions on installing cable TV, consult your cable TV company. One possible method of utilizing the

conver_er/descrambler provided by your cable TV company is explained below
Please note'_An RF switch provided with two inputs (A and B) is required (not supplied)

_A"position on the RF switch (not supplled): You can v_ew all unscrambfed channels by using the TV's channel keys
