Cable TV (CATV/DTV) connection

• A  ohm coaxial cable (F-type) connector is built into the TV for easy hookup.
Note:
When connecting 75 ohm (RF) coaxial cable to the TV,
HAND-TIGHTEN only.
NEVER use tools to tighten F-type connectors.
Using tools may damage the TV. This type of damage
is NOT COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY.
• Some cable TV companies offer "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/descrambler is necessary for normal viewing of the scrambled channels.
Set your TV on channel 3 or 4 (whichever channel is used by your cable TV company). For more specific
instructions on installing cable TV, consult your cable TV company.
