I N S TA L L AT I O NAntennas with 75-ohm Round Leads1Plug the antenna lead intothe VHF/UHF terminal onthe bottom of the backpanel.Separate VHF and UHF AntennasIf you have two separate antennas for your TV (one VHF and one UHF), you mustcombine the two antenna signals before connecting the antennas to the TV. Thisprocedure requires an optional combiner-adaptor (available at most electronics shops).1Connect both antennaleads to the combiner.2Plug the combiner into theVHF/UHF terminal on thebottom of the rear panel.Connecting Cable TVTo connect to a cable TV system, follow the instructions below.Cable without a Cable BoxPlug the incoming cableinto the VHF/UHF antennaterminal on back of the TV.12Because this TV is cable-ready,you do not need a cable box to viewunscrambled cable channels. 1
