Cable Box and
Cable Only
For best results, use this connection if:
❑
Your cable company scrambles some channels, such as premium
channels (which requires you to use a cable box), but does not
scramble all channels.
❑
You do not have a VCR. (If you have a VCR, see pages 24 and 26.)
With this connection you can:
❑
Use the TV remote control to change channels coming through
the cable box to the TV’s VHF/UHF input jack. (You must first
program the remote control for your specific cable box; see
“Programming the Remote Control” on page 50.)
❑
Use the TV remote control to change channels coming directly
into the TV’s CABLE input. (The TV’s tuner provides a better
signal than the cable box.)
