Connect the Cable TV signal to the
75 OHM ANTENNA INPUT jack on
the rear of the TV. Screw it down tight.

outlet and turn on the TV. Set TV/CABLE
to CABLE as detailed on page 11.
Refer to AUTO PROGRAM to set up your
available TV channels. Details are on page 12.
If you have a Cable Box, use the following
steps.
1
Connect the Cable TV signal to the
IN jack on the Cable Box.

Connect a separate coaxial cable to
the OUT jack on the Cable Box and
to the 75 OHM ANTENNA INPUT
jack on the rear of the TV.
3
Plug the TV's power cord into a
power outlet and turn on the TV.
Set TV/CABLE to CABLE as detailed on
page 11.

Box if applicable). Change channels at
the Cable Box.

nect the Cable Box to the
