Notes • • Make sure that you use the correct type of power. See the label on your TV. If you do not intend to use your TV for an extended period of time, unplug the power cord from the power outlet. Connecting an outside antenna Antenna cables come in two types: 75 ohm and 300 ohm. 75 ohm cable 300 ohm cable • If your antenna cable has a 75 ohm connector, connect the cable to the coaxial jack on the back of your TV. • If your antenna cable has a 300 ohm connector, connect the cable to a 300-75 ohm adapter (not included), connect the adapter to a 75 ohm cable, then connect the other end of the 75 ohm connector to the coaxial jack on the back of your TV. Connecting cable TV Your TV has a 75 ohm jack for connecting cable TV. Some cable TV providers scramble the signals for "premium" (pay) channels. To view these channels, you need a converter/descrambler box. If you do not have a converter/descrambler box, you can connect your cable TV directly to your TV. If you have a converter/descrambler box, you can connect your cable TV using an RF switch (not supplied). For more information about connecting a converter/descrambler box, contact your cable TV provider. To connect cable TV without a converter/descrambler box: 1 Connect one end of a 75 ohm cable to the coaxial jack on the back of your TV. 2 Connect the other end of the cable to the cable TV wall outlet.
