Making connections
Connecting an antenna or cable TV
To connect an antenna, cable TV, or satellite TV box:
1 Connect one end of a 75 ohm cable (not included) to the RF OUT
jack on the antenna or on the cable or satellite TV box.
2 Connect the other end of the cable to the ANT/CABLE IN jack on
the back of your TV.
Notes:
Use a 75 ohm cable to eliminate interference and noise from radio waves.
Do not bundle the 75 ohm cable with the power cord or other cables.
If the antenna is not installed correctly, contact qualified service personnel
to correct the problem.
To improve picture quality in a poor signal area, purchase and install a
signal amplifier.
Connecting a cable TV or satellite box
If you subscribe to a cable TV service from a local provider you can watch
cable TV programming. The TV cannot display TV programming unless a
TV tuner device or cable TV converter box is connected to the TV.
For further information regarding cable TV service, contact your local
cable TV service provider(s).
To connect to a cable TV or satellite TV box:
1 Connect the incoming cable from the satellite wall jack to the
SATELLITE IN jack on the satellite box.
2 Depending on the jacks available on the satellite TV receiver (set
top box), connect a cable from the outgoing jacks on the satellite
box to the corresponding jacks on the back of your TV. The
connection can be to the HDMI, component video, S-Video, or AV
jack.
3 If you use a component video, S-Video, or AV cable, connect audio
cables to the corresponding jacks on the back of your TV and on
the staellite box.
4 Turn on your TV, then press INPUT to select VIDEO mode for the
type of connection you use.
