Installing remote control batteries
To install the remote control batteries:
1 Remove the battery cover.
2 Insert two AAA batteries into the battery
compartment. Make sure that you match the + and
– symbols on the batteries with the + and –
symbols in the battery compartment.
3 Replace the cover.
Notes
• Do not mix batteries of different types.
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
• Remove batteries when the charge is depleted.
• Battery chemicals can cause a rash. If the
batteries leak, clean the battery compartment
with a cloth. If chemicals touch your skin, wash
immediately.
• If the remote control is not going to be used for
an extended period of time, remove the
batteries.
Connecting your TV to a power outlet
To connect your TV to a power outlet:
•
Plug the power cord into a power outlet.
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/descramble 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.
To connect cable TV with a
converter/descrambler box:
•
Use the following illustration to connect a
converter/descrambler box. (The RF switch and
the signal splitter are not provided.)
Set the RF switch to the A position to watch
unscrambled channels using your TV remote
control. Set the RF switch to the B position to
watch scrambled channels using the
converter/descrambler controls.
