For PIP to function you must connect two signals to the TV. (Use the TV's 75 ohm input and
A/V inputs.) Connect VCR (or other accessory equipped with a video output jack) to the
TV's audio video jacks as shown on page 12. If you are using a satellite dish, you must
connect two receivers or a cable system or antenna with the satellite to use the PIP feature (see
page 13). For operation with Cable Box, see chart on page 15.
