Activating CableCARD™ Service

Before you can use CableCARD service, you need to insert the
CableCARD device (supplied by your cable provider) and activate
the service.

Inserting the CableCARD incorrectly may result in permanent damage to the card and
the TV.
The connection diagrams shown on the reverse side are
recommendations only; other possible solutions may
exist. Connections that include an AV receiver can often
be complex, so check your AV receiver’s instruction
manual for additional details.
See the “Cables Required” chart that appears with the
diagram to determine which cables you’ll need.
Depending on the components you plan to connect, you
may need to purchase extra cables.
