Using a CableCARD
246 Series TVs
The CableCARD™ system allows your TV to receive,
decode, and unscramble the premium digital channels
included in your cable TV subscription without the use
of a cable box. The system is unidirectional, meaning
that certain digital cable services, such as requests
for video-on-demand and pay-per-view programs, a
cable operator’s enhanced program guide, and data-
enhanced television services may require use of a
set-top box instead. For more information, call your
local cable operator.
Note:
CableCARD requires the TV’s
Fast Power On
setting. If you insert a CableCARD, the TV will
automatically override a
Low Power
setting and
change to the
Fast Power On
setting.
