Cable Box and Cable
Use this connection if you subscribe to a cable system that scrambles some channels (pay
channels) but not all of them. This setup allows you to use the remote control to:
❏ change channels through your cable box when you are receiving a scrambled signal
❏ change channels through your TV
This connection also allows you to use the PIP feature when you are viewing unscrambled
channels coming directly into your TV from your cable. Scrambled signals coming through the
cable box
cannot be viewed in PIP. For more information on the PIP feature, see page 24.
1 Connect the coaxial cable from your cable service to the VHF/UHF jack on your TV.
2 Using a coaxial cable (not supplied), connect the IN jack on your cable box to the TO
CONVERTER jack on your TV.
3 Using a coaxial cable (not supplied), connect the OUT jack on your cable box to the AUX
jack on your TV.
