T

he 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

coaxial cable, use the following steps.

1

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

2

Plug the TV’s power cord into a power
outlet and turn on the TV.
Set TV/CABLE
to CABLE as detailed on page 11.
Refer to AUTO PROGRAM to set up your
available TV channels. Details are on page 12.

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

1

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

2

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.

3

Plug the TV’s power cord into a
power outlet and turn on the TV.
Set TV/CABLE to CABLE as detailed on
page 11.

4

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.

Basic Cable TV Connection

An RF coaxial cable (to con-
nect 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.

Helpful Hints

Your Cable Box may have separate Audio and Video Out jacks
instead. If so, use audio and video cables to connect the
AUDIO/VIDEO OUT jacks of the Cable Box to the AUDIO/VIDEO
IN 2 jacks on the rear of the TV.
Press TV/AV/EXIT on the TV’s remote control to set the TV to the
VIDEO 2 channel. Change TV channels at the Cable Box.
