Incoming CATV

Combination VHF/UHF Antenna (Single 75 ohm

cable or 300 ohm twin-lead wire)

Connect the 75 ohm cable from a combination VHF/UHF

antenna to the antenna jack.

If your combination antenna has a 300 ohm twin-lead wire,

use the 300-75 ohm matching transformer (not supplied).

Combination VHF/UHF Antenna (Separate VHF

and UHF 300 ohm twin-leads)

Connect the UHF twin-lead wire to a combiner (not

supplied). Connect the VHF twin-lead to the 300-75 ohm

matching transformer (not supplied). Attach the

transformer to the combiner. Attach the combiner to the

antenna jack.

Separate VHF/UHF Antennas

Connect the 75 ohm cable from the VHF antenna and the

UHF antenna twin-lead to a combiner (not supplied).

Attach the combiner to the antenna jack.

NOTE: If your VHF antenna has a twin-lead wire, use the

300-75 ohm matching transformer (not supplied), then

connect the transformer to the combiner.

For Subscribers to Basic Cable TV Service

For basic cable service not requiring a converter/

descrambler box, connect the CATV 75 ohm coaxial cable

directly to the antenna jack on the back of the television.

For Subscribers to Scrambled Cable TV Service

If you subscribe to a cable service which requires the use

of a converter/descrambler box, connect the incoming

cable to the converter/descrambler box and connect the

output of the box to the antenna jack on the back of the

television. Follow the connections shown left. Set the

television to the output of the converter/descrambler box

(usually channel 3 or 4) and use the converter/descrambler

box to select channels.

For Subscribers to Unscrambled Basic Cable

with Scrambled Premium Channels

If you subscribe to a cable service in which basic cable

channels are unscrambled and premium channels require

the use of a converter/descrambler box, you may wish to

use a two-set signal splitter (sometimes called a "two-set

coupler") and an A/B switch box from the cable installer or

an electronics supply store. Follow the connections shown

left. With the switch in the "B" position, you can directly tune

any nonscrambled channels on your TV. With the switch in

the "A" position, tune your TV to the output of the converter/

descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the box

to tune scrambled channels.

This television has an extended tuning range and

can tune most cable channels without using a cable

company supplied converter box. Some cable

companies offer "premium pay channels" in which

the signal is scrambled. Descrambling these signals

for normal viewing requires the use of a descrambler

device which is generally provided by the cable

company.

23. NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER-

This reminder is provided to call the CATV

system installer's attention to Article 820-40

of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper

grounding and, in particular, specifies that the

cable ground shall be connected to the

grounding system of the building, as close to

the point of cable entry as practical.

12. POWER-CORD PROTECTION- Power-

supply cords should be routed so that they

are not likely to be walked on or pinched by

items placed upon or against them, paying

particular attention to cords at plugs,

convenience receptacles, and the point

where they exit from the appliance.

13. LIGHTNING- To protect your unit during a

lightning storm, or when it is left unattended

and unused for long periods of time, unplug it

from the wall outlet and disconnect the

antenna or cable system. This will prevent

damage to the unit due to lightning and

power line surges.

14. POWER LINES- An outside antenna system

should not be located in the vicinity of

overhead power lines, or other electric light

or power circuits, or where it can fall into

such power lines or circuits. When installing

an outside antenna system, extreme care

should be taken to keep from touching such

power lines or circuits as contact with them

might be fatal.

15. OVERLOADING- Do not overload wall

outlets and extension cords as this can result

in a risk of fire or electric shock.

16. OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY- Do not push

objects through any openings in this unit as

they may touch dangerous voltage points or

short out parts that could result in fire or

electric shock. Never spill or spray any type

of liquid into the unit.

17. OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING- If an

outside antenna or cable system is con-

nected to the unit, be sure the antenna or

cable system is grounded to provide some

protection against voltage surges and built-up

static charges. Section 810 of the National

Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides

information with respect to proper grounding

of the mast and supporting structure,

grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna

discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,

location of antenna discharge unit, connec-

tion to grounding electrodes, and require-

ments for the grounding electrode.

CLOSED CAPTION

WHAT IS CLOSED CAPTIONING?

This television has the capability to decode and display Closed Captioned television programs.

Closed Captioning will display text on the screen for hearing impaired viewers or it will

translate and display text in another language.

TO VIEW CLOSED CAPTIONS

Press the TV/CAP/TEXT button on the remote control to switch between normal TV and the two

Closed Caption Modes (Captions and 1/2 of Full Screen Text).

Captions: This Closed Caption Mode will display text on the screen in English or another

language (depending on the setting of the Closed Captions CH. 1/2 button). Generally, Closed

Captions in English are transmitted on Captions Channel 1 and Closed Captions in other

languages are transmitted on Captions Channel 2.

Text: The Text Closed Caption Mode will usually fill 1/2 of full screen with a programming

schedule or other information. After selecting a Closed Caption Mode, it will stay in effect until

it is changed, even if the channel is changed. If the Captions signal is lost due to a commercial

or a break in the signal, the Captions will reappear when the signal is received again. If the

channels are changed, the Captions will be delayed approximately 10 seconds.

The Captions will appear in places on the screen where they will least interfere with the

picture, usually on the bottom of the screen. News programs will usually show three-line

Closed Captions which scroll onto the screen. Most other shows provide two or three lined

Captions placed near the character who is speaking so the viewer can follow the dialogue.

Words in italics or underlined describe titles, words in foreign languages or words requiring

emphasis. Words that are sung usually appear enclosed by musical notes.

For television programs broadcasting with Closed Captions, look in your TV guide for the

Closed Captions symbol (CC).

•When selecting Closed Captions, the captioning will be delayed approximately 10

seconds.

•Closed Captioned text is only displayed in locations where it is available.

•If no caption signal is received, no captions will appear, but the television will remain in

the Caption Mode.

•Misspellings or unusual characters may occasionally appear during Closed Captioning.

This is normal with Closed Captioning, especially with live programs. This is because

during live programs, captions are also entered live. These transmissions do not allow

time for editing.

•When Captions are being displayed, on-screen displays, such as volume and mute may

not be seen or may interfere with Closed Captions.

•Some cable systems and copy protection systems may interfere with the Closed

Captioned signal.

•If using an indoor antenna or if TV reception is very poor, the Closed Caption Decoder

may not appear or may appear with strange characters or misspelled words. In this case,

adjust the antenna for better reception or use an outdoor antenna.
