Y
our Cable TV input into your home may be a single (75 ohm)
cable or use a cable box decoder. In either case the connec-
tion is very simple.
Follow the steps below to connect your cable signal to your new
television.
Direct Cable Connections:
This connection will supply Stereo sound to the TV.
1
Connect the open end of the round Cable Company sup-
plied cable to the 75Ω input on the TV. Screw it down finger
tight.
Cable Box (w/RF In/Outputs):
This connection will NOT supply Stereo sound to the TV. The sound
from the cable box will be mono.
1
Connect the Cable Company supplied cable to the signal
(IN)put jack on the back of the cable box.
2
Using a separate round coaxial cable, connect one end to the
OUT(put) (TO TV) jack on the back of the Cable Box.
3
Connect the other end of the round coaxial cable to the
75Ω input on the back of the television. Screw it down finger
tight.
NOTE: If applicable, set the OUTPUT CHANNEL SWITCH on the
back of the cable box to CH 3 or CH 4. Tune the TV to the same
channel and change channels at the cable box. In some cases the
cable box will automatically tune to either channel 3 or channel 4,
change channels until the picture appears.
Cable Box (w/Audio/Video Outputs):
This connection will supply Stereo sound to the TV.
4
Connect the Cable Company supplied cable to
the cable
signal IN(put) jack on the back of the Cable Box.
5
Using an RCA type Video cable, connect one of the Video
Out jack (or ANT, your cable box may be labeled differently)
on the cable box. Connect the other end to the AV1 Video
Input jack on the TV.
6
Connect one end of the Audio Left and Right cables to the
Audio L & R Out jacks on the cable box and the other end to
the AV1 Audio L & R Input jacks on the TV.
NOTE: Use the Channel +, or – buttons on the TV remote control to
tune to the AV1 channel for the cable box signal. Once tuned, change
channels at the cable box, not the television.

A
combination antenna receives normal broadcast chan-
nels (VHF 2–13 and UHF 14–69). Your connection is
easy because there is only one 75Ω (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
75Ω (ohm) plug on the back of the TV. If the round end of
the antenna wire is threaded, screw it down finger tight.
