CONNECTION

This section describes how to connect this TV to reception and other sources.
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AN ANTENNA.
As DTV is only available over the air, you need an antenna to receive digital signal.
NOTE:
Be sure that antenna or cable is connected properly before plugging the power cord.

Connect the RF cable or antenna cable on your home outlet to the ANT. IN jack of this TV.

NOTES:
• For your safety and to avoid damages to the unit, unplug the antenna cable from the ANT. IN jack before moving the unit.
• If you use an antenna in order to receive analog TV, the same antenna generally will work for DTV reception.
Outdoor or attic antennas will be more effective than set-top versions.
• To easily switch between antenna and cable wires, you can purchase "Antenna Selector" commercially available.
• If you connect cable system directly, contact the CATV installer.
*Once connections are completed, turn on the TV and begin initial setup.
Channel scanning is necessary for the TV to memorize all available channels in your area if using
antenna or RF/Incoming cable. (Refer to "INITIAL SETTINGS" on page 13.)

[CONNECTION TO CABLE/SATELLITE BOX]

1) Connect the antenna cable on your home outlet to the input jack of the CABLE/SATELLITE box.
2) Use the corresponding cable to connect the ANT. IN jack of this TV and the output jack of the
CABLE/SATELLITE box.
*Required cables in 2) and connecting methods differ depending on the CABLE/SATELLITE box. For more informa-
tion, please contact the cable/satellite provider.
