his section shows you how to make a basic TV connection

using a cable TV or antenna signal.

If you have cable TV service, you’ll simply connect the coaxial

cable lead-in from the cable TV company to your TV. If you intend

to connect a VHF/UHF antenna, you may need a 300- to 75-ohm

adapter, which is not supplied with your TV.

NOTE: You should be able to buy optional accessories such as a

VHF/UHF antenna or a 300- to 75-ohm adapter at most stores

that sell electronics. Or you can call our Customer Care Center at

1-800-531-0039.

Connect the Cable TV or antenna signal to the

ANTENNA IN 75Ω jack on the rear of the TV.

NOTE: If you are using an antenna with a round coaxial

cable (75Ω), then you are ready to connect to the back of

the TV. If your antenna has a flat, twin-lead wire (300Ω),

you must first attach the antenna wires on a 300- to 75-

ohm adapter. Then push the round end of the adapter onto

the ANTENNA IN 75Ω jack on the rear of the TV.

Insert the TV’s power plug into the wall power outlet.

f you are new to making TV hookups, you may want to read

this section. (The cables and connectors discussed are not sup-

plied with your set. You can buy them at most stores that sell

audio or video products. Or call our Customer Care Center at 1-

A 75-ohm coaxial cable connects signals

from an antenna or a cable TV company

to the antenna jack on the back of the TV.

Coaxial cables use “F” connectors.

A two-way signal splitter enables you to

take a single antenna or cable TV signal

and supply it to two different inputs.

A 300- to 75-ohm twin-lead

adapter accepts the antenna

cables (called twin-lead wires)

from an antenna, allowing you

to connect the antenna signal to

the TV.
