Connecting the aerial cables

These connections enable you to watch

connected via a VCR, Cable Box or
Satellite Receiver, ensure that these
devices are turned on in order to watch
or record the cable programmes.
If you want to connect to a VCR
and/or Cable Box/Satellite Receiver,
see the chapter "Step 2 : Optional
Connections" for the complete
connections to your TV.
TIPS: Before making or changing any connections, make sure that all the devices are disconnected
from the power outlet.
