his section shows you how to make a basic TV connection
using a cable TV or antenna signal.

If you have cable TV service, you’ll simply connect the coaxial
cable lead-in from the cable TV company to your TV. If you intend
to connect a VHF/UHF antenna, you may need a 300- to 75-ohm
adapter, which is not supplied with your TV. 

NOTE: You should be able to buy optional accessories such as a
VHF/UHF antenna or a 300- to 75-ohm adapter at most stores
that sell electronics. Or you can call our Customer Care Center
at 1-800-531-0039.

1

Connect the Cable TV or antenna signal to the 
ANTENNA IN 75

jack on the rear of the TV.

NOTE: If you are using an antenna with a round coaxial
cable (75

), then you are ready to connect to the back of

the TV. If your antenna has a flat, twin-lead wire (300

),

you must first attach the antenna wires on a 300- to 75-
ohm adapter. Then push the round end of the adapter onto
the ANTENNA IN 75

jack on the rear of the TV.

2

Insert the TV’s power plug into the wall power outlet.

IMPORTANT

NOTE: This owner's manual is used with several
different television models. Not all features (and
drawings) discussed in this manual will necessar-
ily match those found with your television set.
This is normal and does not require that you con-
tact your dealer or request service.

WARNING: TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK
HAZARD DO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO
RAIN OR EXCESSIVE MOISTURE.

ANTENNA OR CABLE TV

BEST VIEWING

T

he major benefit of this projection television is its large view-
ing screen. To see this large screen at its best, test various

locations in the room to find the optimal spot for viewing.

NOTE: Be sure to allow a free flow of air to and from the per-
forated back cover of the set.

To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes,
and increased chance of set failure, do not place
the TV where temperatures can become excessively
hot—for example, in direct sunlight or near a
heating appliance.

Magnetic fields, such as those of external speak-
ers, may cause the picture to distort if the speak-
ers are placed too close to the television. Move
the magnetic field source away from the TV until
there is no picture distortion.

CABLES AND CONNECTORS

I

f you are new to making TV hookups, you may want to read
this section. (The cables and connectors discussed are not sup-

plied with your set. You can buy them at most stores that sell
audio or video products. Or call our Customer Care Center at
1-800-531-0039.) 

This publication provides you with examples of basic connections.
See pages 6–17 in the Directions for Use manual for more infor-
mation on connections, along with connection examples.

A 75-ohm coaxial cable connects signals
from an antenna or a cable TV company
to the antenna jack on the back of the TV.
Coaxial cables use “F” connectors.

two-way signal splitter enables you to
take a single antenna or cable TV signal
and supply it to two different inputs. 

300- to 75-ohm twin-lead
adapter 
accepts the antenna
cables (called twin-lead wires)
from an antenna, allowing you
to connect the antenna signal to
the TV. 

Video and audio cables
with standard RCA
(phono) connectors con-
nect the video and audio
jacks of accessory
devices such as VCRs
and DVD players to the
jacks on the TV.

To simplify making connections, the connectors
are usually color coded. The jacks on your TV are
likewise color coded to match the colors of the
connectors. The coding is as follows: yellow for
video (composite) and red and white for the right

and left audio channels, respectively. Use an audio
cable with a white connector when making mono,
or nonstereo, connections. The connectors of
video cables used to connect component video or
RGB (high-resolution) jacks are often color coded
red, green, and blue. Component video connec-
tions provide you with the highest possible color
and picture resolution.

An S-Video cable connects
devices such as DVD players,
VCRs, or camcorders to your
TV. S-Video provides better picture performance
than regular (composite) video connections. 
S-Video cables can be used only with S-Video-
compatible accessory devices. You must also con-
nect the left and right audio cables along with S-
Video because the S-Video jack carries only the
picture signal, not the sound.
