Choosing the Best Location
• Choose a location that is
convenient but away from sources
of heat such as direct sunlight and
heating units.
• Allow for air circulation around the
set. This is especially important if
you install it in a cabinet with
several other components. Cleaning
the ventilation slots on the cabinet
at regular intervals will assure
adequate ventilation.
• To prevent electric shock, avoid wet
areas such as kitchens or
bathrooms.
• Try to avoid direct light on the
screen during operation. Because
the picture tube emits light, direct
light on the screen will weaken
picture quality and intensity.
• If you are using an indoor antenna,
an outside wall is a good location.
You may want to try a few
different locations to find the best
possible spot for reception.
Attaching Power Cord
Back of TV
tst
1.
,
First insert the female end of the
furnished power cord "into the male
connector on the back of your TV.
The plug is designed to fit only one
way.
Then insert the polarized 2-prong
male end of the power cord into a
corresponding AC power
receptacle.
Note: Your TV operates on 120 volts,
60 Hz (normal household current) and
has a polarized plug. Because one
blade of the plug is wider than the
other, the plug fits into the wall
socket only one way. Do not defeat
the safety feature of this plug. If you
need to use an extension cord, make
sure it is polarized.
The antenna is the "signal receiver"
for television. Most modem TV
antennas receive both VHF (Very
High Frequency) and UHF (Ultra
High Frequency) channels. Channels
2-13 are VHF channels and channels
14-69 are UHF channels.

Outdoor
Antenna
In most situations you will get better
picture quality if you use an_outdoor
antenna or connect your TV to a
cable-TV system. If this is not
possible, use a good quality indoor
antenna. Your indoor antenna
should have separate leads for VHF
and UHF if you are in an area with
both VHF and UHF stations; or
you can use separate VHF and UHF
antennas.
Cable-TV (CATV) supplies television
signals directly by cable without the
need for a home antenna. Cable-TV
delivers both VHF and UHF
channels and other channels not
available from your antenna.
Shown below are two basic types of
antenna cables. Signals from a home
antenna may be conducted through
either type. Cable-TV signals,
however, are always conducted
through round, 75-ohm coaxial
cable.
TYPES OF ANTENNA CABLES
Flat 300-ohm
twin-lead cable

Use the connectors shown below to
connect your antenna or cable-TV
system to the back of the TV.
