Connections & Setup

Plug in the TV

Plug the flat end of the cable into the power jack on the back of the TV. Then plug the end of the
power cord into an appropriate wall outlet. Be sure to insert the plug completely. Do not plug
into an outlet controlled by a light switch. The TV needs some power to acquire guide listings, do
recordings, etc.
Note: When you first plug your TV into an outlet, the Power LED indicator on the front
panel will light for approximately 15 seconds and then go off during the initialization of the
TV. The TV can only be turned on after the Power LED indicator goes off. This happens every
time power is reapplied to the TV.
