our Cable TV input into your home may be a single (75 ohm)
cable or a converter box installation. In either case, the con-

nection to the TV is very easy. Follow the steps below to connect
your cable signal to your new television.

If your cable signal comes directly from a round 75

coaxial

cable use the following steps:

1

Connect the open end of the round Cable Company sup-
plied cable
to the 75

Ω input on the TV. Screw it down finger

tight.

2

Plug the television in to the wall outlet and turn the TV on.
Refer to the AUTOPROGRAM feature to program all the
available channels on your cable signal.

If your cable signal comes from a cable box, use the following
steps:

3

Connect the open end of the round Cable Company sup-
plied cable
to the cable signal IN(put) plug on the back of
the Cable Box.

4

Using a separate round coaxial cable, connect one end to the
OUT(put) plug on the back of the Cable Box.

5

Connect the other end of the round coaxial cable to the
75

Ω input on the back of the television. Screw it down finger

tight.

6

Plug the television in to the wall outlet and turn the TV on.
Refer to the TUNER and AUTOPROGRAM features on page
3 of this Quick Use Guide. TUNER should be set to the
CABLE option. AUTOPROGRAM can be set to program all
the available channels on your cable signal into the televi-
sion’s memory.

combination antenna receives normal broadcast chan-
nels (VHF 2–13 and UHF 14–69). Your connection is

easy because there is only one 75

(ohm) antenna plug on

the back of your TV, and that’s where the antenna goes.

1

If your antenna has a round cable (75 ohm) on the end,
then you're ready to connect it to the TV.
If your antenna has flat, twin-lead wire (300 ohm), you
first need to attach the antenna wires to the screws on a
300- to 75-ohm adapter.

2

Push the round end of the adapter (or antenna) onto the
75

Ω (ohm) plug on the back of the TV. If the round end of

the antenna wire is threaded, screw it down finger tight.

3

Plug the television in to the wall outlet and turn the TV
on. Refer to the TUNER and AUTOPROGRAM features on
page 3 of this Quick Use Guide. TUNER should be set to the
ANTENNA option. AUTOPROGRAM can be set to program
all the available channels on your cable signal into the televi-
sion’s memory.
