Connect a cable TV signal to a 75-ohm two-way signal splitter (an optional accessory). Or Connect an outdoor or indoor antenna signal to the 75-ohm two-way signal splitter. If your antenna has flat twin-lead wire (300 ohm), you must first attach the antenna wires to the screws on a 300to 75-ohm adapter before connecting to the two-way signal splitter. Connect two lengths of RF coaxial cable to the two output plugs on the two-way signal splitter. The two lengths of RF coaxial cable must have F-type connectors (screw-on or push type) on their ends. Connect one of the RF coaxial cables coming from two-way signal splitter to the PIP ANT(enna) "B" input on the back of the TV and the other RF coaxial cable to the ANT(enna) "A" input on the back of the TV. SMART HELP You can treat the output connection of a satellite receiver as you would a standard antenna or cable TV signal, except the satellite signal should not be split as shown in the illustration to the right. The satellite signal should go directly into the ANT(enna) "A" input connection on the back of the TV. Then, if you would like, use the PIP ANT(enna) "B" input connection for either an outdoor/indoor antenna or cable TV signal. Refer to the owner's manual for the satellite box to get further information on connections. Run Auto Program to store in the TV's memory only the channels with active broadcast stations. See page 5 for details. ANTENNA A AND B INPUTS Y our TV has two separate ANT(enna)/cable inputs on the back of the set. These two signal inputs offer convenient hookup options for both normal TV program viewing and Picture-In-Picture (PIP) features. The ANT(enna) "A" input is intended for use and viewing on the TV's main screen. Your home's primary antenna or cable TV signal should be connected to this input for normal TV setup, use, and feature operation. The PIP ANT(enna) "B" input is a second, or auxiliary, signal source included for your TV's Picture-In-Picture (PIP) feature. For many homes, the use of a single existing antenna or cable TV source for both ANT(enna)"A" and PIP ANT(enna) "B" will be the preferred method of connection (see illustration to the right). This type of connection (optional signal splitter required) will work properly for the TV's main on-screen features, as well as retain all the features designed for PIP. For more details on PIP, refer to pages 49­52 in the Directions for Use manual that came with your set.

RF coaxial connecting cables will be needed for use with the Twoway Signal Splitter.) 3 300 (Ohm) to 75 (Ohm) Adapter ANT(enna) "A" Input SMART HELP Contact your dealer, or our Parts Information Center at 1-800-851-8885 to order the following accessories: two-way signal splitter, RF coaxial cable, 300ohm to 75-ohm adapter, combination VHF/UHF antenna. OR Twin­lead Wire Outdoor or Indoor Antenna (Combination VHF/UHF) Receives normal broadcast channels 2­13 (VHF) and 14­69 (UHF). RF Coaxial Cable 75 (Ohm) NOTE: Proper operation of your TV is not dependent upon the connection of the PIP ANT(enna) "B" input. The main purpose of the input is to provide an easily connected, dedicated picture source for the PIP feature. You can, however, use the PIP ANT(enna) "B" input to connect and display other signal sources such as an outdoor or indoor antenna or a video game player. Although the PIP ANT(enna) "B" input can be used and swapped as the source for the TV's main picture, certain setup features (such as AutoChron) are based only on your TV's detecting a signal at the ANT(enna) "A" input. To ensure that all features are operating properly, you may not want to rely solely on the PIP ANT(enna) "B" input as your TV's main screen signal source. 1 3135 035 20251 AutoLock, AutoPicture, AutoSound, ImageMax, and Incredible Surround are trademarks of Philips Consumer Electronics Company.

AutoChron automatically sets the right time of day and maintains it with digital precision through brownouts, power failures, and even Daylight Savings Time adjustments. AutoLock allows you to block the viewing of certain channels or programs with certain ratings if you do not want your children to view inappropriate materials. Auto Program scans for all available channels from regular antenna or cable signals and stores only active broadcast stations in the TV's memory. AutoPicture allows you to push a button and adapt your television's picture to various types of programming, such as sports, movies, and multimedia (games), as well as to the occurrence of a weak broadcast signal. AutoSound allows you to select from three factory-set controls and a personal control that you set according to your own preferences through the onscreen Sound menu. The three factory-set controls (Voice, Music, and Theatre) enable you to tailor the TV sound to enhance the particular programming you are watching. Bass Boost increases the low-frequency range of the TV's sound. Channel Edit allows you to add or delete channels from the list stored in the TV's memory. Channel Edit makes it easy to limit or expand the number of channels that are available to you when you press the Channel Scan (+,­) buttons on your remote control. Closed Captioning allows the viewer to read TV program dialogue or voice conversations as on-screen text. Dynamic Noise Reduction (DNR) can help eliminate broadcast signal noise ("speckles" in the picture). ImageMax helps you sharpen the picture quality by making dark portions of the picture darker and lighter portions brighter. Incredible Surround boosts the TV's sound, making it broader and fuller. Infrared Remote Control works your TV and other remote-controlled devices, such as VCRs, DVD players, cable converters, and satellite receivers. On-screen Menu shows helpful messages and instructions for adjusting or setting TV feature controls (can be viewed in English, French, or Spanish). Sleep Timer automatically turns the TV off after a set amount of time of your choice. Standard Broadcast (VHF/UHF) or Cable TV (CATV) channel capability allows for viewing by antenna or cable. Stereo capability, including a built-in audio amplifier and twin-speaker system, allows for the reception of TV programs broadcast in stereo sound. Surf Button allows you to easily switch among only the channels that are of interest to you (the ones that you have programmed into the TV's Surf control through the on-screen menu). Timer allows you to set your TV to turn itself on and off once or daily like an alarm clock. Two Tuners (ANT[enna] "A" and PIP ANT[enna] "B") enable you to connect two different broadcast signals to your TV at once. On screen these signal sources are referred to as "Tuner-A" and "Tuner-B." Digital-Ready Projection TV This Projection Television is capable of connecting to both the current analog television signals of today as well as interfacing with new, upcoming digital source playback products and devices. This TV includes multiple signal connectors (Component Video, S-Video, and Composite Video), which give you a variety of equipment playback options for digital set-top boxes, satellite receivers, cable boxes, and other digital devices. While there may exist some digital devices with connections not available on this television, you should be adequately prepared for the vast majority of products coming onto the digital consumer electronics' market. NOTE: You should always use the connection output on digital devices that gives the highest level of picture quality possible. As listed above, the Component Video (or Y PB PR) input delivers the best color and picture reproduction, followed by S-Video, and then Composite Video. In addition to these inputs, your television also includes the standard 75-ohm cable signal connector for use with antennas or analog cable boxes.
