Y our Cable TV input into your home may be a single (75
ohm) cable or a converter box installation. In either
case, the connection to the TV is very easy. Follow the steps
below to connect your cable signal to your new television.
If your cable signal comes directly from a round 75 Ω coaxial
cable use the following steps:
1 Connect the open end of the round Cable Company
supplied cable to the 75 Ω input on the TV. Screw it down
finger tight.
2 Plug the television into the wall outlet and turn the TV
on. Refer to the AUTOPROGRAM feature to program all
the available channels on your cable signal.
If your cable signal comes from a cable box, use the following
steps: (This connection will be mono. Some Cable boxes use
Left and Right channel audio output jacks for stereo connec-
tions. This type of Cable Box can be connected to the AV1 or
AV2 Audio Left and Right Audio Inputs. Please refer to your
Cable Box instructions.)
1 Connect the open end of the round Cable Company
supplied cable to the cable signal IN(put) plug on the back
of the Cable Box.
2 Using a separate round coaxial cable, connect one end to
the OUT(put) plug on the back of the Cable Box.
3 Connect the other end of the round coaxial cable to the
75 Ω input on the back of the television. Screw it down fin-
ger tight.
4 Plug the television into the wall outlet and turn the TV
on. Refer to the TUNER and AUTOPROGRAM features
on page 4 of this Quick Use Guide. TUNER should be set
to the CABLE option. AUTOPROGRAM can be set to
program all the available channels on your cable signal
into the television’s memory.

A combination antenna receives normal broadcast chan-
nels (VHF 2–13 and UHF 14–69). Your connection is
easy because there is only one 75 Ω (ohm) antenna plug on
the back of your TV, and that’s where the antenna goes.
1 If your antenna has a round cable (75 ohm) on the end,
then you're ready to connect it to the TV.
If your antenna has flat, twin-lead wire (300 ohm), you
first need to attach the antenna wires to the screws on a
300- to 75-ohm adapter.
2 Push the round end of the adapter (or antenna) onto the
75 Ω (ohm) plug on the back of the TV. If the round end of
the antenna wire is threaded, screw it down finger tight.
3 Plug the television into the wall outlet and turn the TV
on. Refer to the TUNER and AUTOPROGRAM features on
page 4 of this Quick Use Guide. TUNER should be set to the
ANTENNA option. AUTOPROGRAM can be set to program
all the available channels on your cable signal into the televi-
sion’s memory.
