If yourantenna has a round cable (75 ohm) on the end,
then you're ready to connect it to the TV.

300- to 75-ohm adapter.

Push the round endof the adapter (or antenna) onto the
75Ω(ohm) plug on the back of the TV. If the round end of
the antenna wire is threaded, screw it down finger tight.

DVDs, or other devices, providing quality TV picture and sound

fortable sound.

programs with certain ratings if you do not want your children to
view inappropriate materials.

tint, contrast, etc.) for various types of programming, such as sports,
movies, multimedia (games), or weak signals with the push of one
button.

and a personal control that you set according to your own prefer-
ences through the onscreen Sound menu. The four factory-set con-
trols (Speech, Movie, Music, and Multimedia) enable you to tailor
the TV sound so as to enhance the particular programming you are
watching.

stored in the TV’s memory. Channel Edit makes it easy to limit or
expand the number of channels that are available to you when you
press the Channel (+) or (–) buttons on your remote control.
