Basic Connections: Connecting a Cable or Antenna
The way in which you will connect your TV varies, depending on how your
home receives a signal (cable, cable box, antenna) and whether or not you
plan to connect a VCR.
If you are connecting a VCR
s See the connections described on pages 31 and 33.
Cable or Antenna
Only
For best results, use this connection if you are connecting a cable or an
antenna and you:
s Do not need a cable box to unscramble channels. (If you have a cable
box, see page 28.)
s Do not intend to connect a VCR. (If you have a VCR, see pages 31 and
33.)
For antenna connection, use the supplied antenna cable.
When using an indoor antenna, such as rabbit-ear or dipole-
antenna, keep the antenna away from the display unit. If not,
noise may appear on the screen.
