Energyefficiencyisbecoming increasinglyimportantto consumers bothinthe USand inCanada.ENERGY
STAR is a US registered trademark to indicate that a product meets its guidelines for energy efficiency.
WHAT IS ENERGY STAR ®
TVs and VCRs use energy both when they are on and when they are off. North Americans spend more
than$1 billiona yearonenergy consumedbyTVs andVCRs whenthey are notin use.Thenew ENERGY
STAR ®models willreduce thatenergy “leakage”by upto 75percent. Ultimately, thiswill meanmore than
$500 million a year in energy savings for consumers.
The energy savings will help reduce the burning of fossil fuels and the related carbon dioxide pollution
that contributes to global warming. If every North American family replaced their TVs and VCRs with
ENERGY STAR ®models, it would reduce carbon dioxide emissions by five million tons every year —
equivalent to eliminating the pollution from more than one million cars.
By using ENERGY STAR ®products, you will save money on your electric bills and use less energy. That
makes good economic sense and it’s good for our environment.

Antennas
•The antenna requirements for good color television reception are more important than those for
black & white television reception. For this reason, a good quality outdoor antenna is strongly
recommended.
The following is a brief explanation of the type of connections that are provided with the various
antenna systems:
F-type connector
75-ohm coaxial cable (round)

consult your cable TV company.) For more specific instructions on installing cable TV, consult your
cable TV company. One possible method of utilizing the converter/descrambler provided by your
cable TV company is explained below.
Please note: RF switch equipped with position A/B (not provided) is required.
