Dear Customer :
Emerson Radio Corp. would like to thank you for choosing this color television receiver. It
incorporates a host of features designed to give you excellent performance for many years to
come.
We realize that you’re eager to turn it on and begin enjoying the high-quality pictures it deliv-
ers just as quickly as possible, but we ask you to take a few minutes to read the instructions
in the booklet to familiarize yourself with the receiver, its functions and some features which
may be new to you. If you follow the instructions, this unit should give you many years of
viewing pleasure.
If for any reason it does not, we want to hear about it. Please write to us at the address
above. Emerson always welcomes comments and suggestions on this or any of our other prod-
ucts.
On the other hand, when you discover the enjoyment, reliability and ease of use that is built
into it, we hope that you will tell your friends, and consider Emerson when you make your
next purchase of home entertainment equipment.
In addition to TV receivers, Emerson Radio Corp. produces a full line of audiovisual products
built to the same high design, engineering, and manufacturing standards as this unit.
Here are a few tips that will keep your TV receiver looking great and performing for years to
come.
• Avoid putting it in excessively hot locations. Damage to the cabinet or premature compo-
nent failures can result.
• There are ventilation holes in the bottom and rear of the cabinet. Make sure that they
remain unobstructed. Do not place the receiver on top of a thick cloth.
• If you don’t plan to use the receiver for several days, it’s a good idea to unplug it from the
power outlet.
• Many common household cleaning agents, sprays, solvents, and polishes will cause perma-
nent damage to the surface of the cabinet. The best cleaning agents are mild soap and a
damp cloth.
Again, thank you for choosing this Emerson product. We have employed advanced engineering
techniques in its design, and manufactured it in one of the world’s most up-to-date production
facilities. The result is a TV receiver that we know you will be as proud to own as we were to
create.
Very truly yours,
Emerson Radio Corp.

Connecting an Antenna or Cable to Your TV
Your TV will provide you with the best performance if you connect it to an external
antenna or cable system. Follow the directions below make this connection. Please
note that you will normally only have to make one of the connections shown below,
not all of them.
All connections will be made to the antenna terminal on the back of your TV. The
antenna terminal is a silver metal post partially surrounded by two plastic tabs. For
help in locating the antenna terminal, see “Your TV's Back Panel” on page 4.
Connecting an Antenna
If your antenna ends in a single coaxi-
al lead, simply press or screw the cable onto the
antenna terminal on the back of your TV.
If your antenna ends in a pair of 300 ohm twin leads, you must use a
300-ohm/75-ohm adapter(available at your local electronics store). Place the leads
underneath the screws on the adapter, tighten the screws, then press the adapter onto
the antenna terminal on the back of the TV.
Chapter 2 : Connecting an Antenna or Cable to Your TV
7
Antennas with two sets of leads
You might have two sets of leads from your antenna system, especially if you have
one antenna for VHF signals and one antenna for UHF signals.
If your antenna system has both a coaxial lead and twin 300-ohm leads
,
you
must obtain a combiner (available at your local electronics store). Press or screw the
coaxial lead onto the combiner; place the twin leads underneath the screws on the
combiner and tighten the screws. Press the cable from combiner onto the antenna ter-
minal on the back of your TV.
If your antenna system has two sets of twin 300-ohm leads, you must
obtain a combiner (available at your local electronics store). Place one set of twin
leads underneath the screws on the combiner and tighten the screws. Do the same
with the other set of twin leads. Press the cable from the combiner onto antenna ter-
minal on the back of your TV.
Connecting a cable system
If your cable set-up is not described below, please contact your cable company for
more information.
If your cable system does not
require the use of a cable box, simply
press or screw the incoming cable onto the
antenna terminal on the back your TV.
8
Chapter 2 : Connecting an Antenna or Cable to Your TV
If your cable system requires you to use a converter box for all
channels, connect the incoming cable to the IN terminal on the converter box.
Connect another cable between the OUT terminal on the converter box and the
antenna terminal on the TV. You will need to keep your TV tuned to channel 3 or 4
and change channels using the converter box.
If your cable system only requires you to use a converter box for
some channels (i. e. pay-TV channels), follow these steps: Find the primary
incoming coaxial cable. Plug this cable into a splitter (available at your local electronics
store). Connect one coaxial cable between one OUT terminal on the splitter and the IN
terminal on the converter box. Connect another coaxial cable between the other OUT
terminal on the splitter and the B-IN terminal on an A/B switch (available at your local
electronics store.) Connect a third coaxial cable between the OUT terminal on the con-
verter box and the A-IN terminal on the A/B switch. Finally, connect a coaxial cable
between the OUT terminal on the A/B switch and the antenna terminal on the back of
your TV.

Converter Box
When the A/B switch is in the A position, you need to change channels on the con-
verter box (and your TV should be tuned to channel 3 or 4); when the A/B switch is
in the B position you can change channels on the TV.
Connecting Other Pieces of Equipment
You may want to connect a VCR, laser disc player, satellite receiver, or another type
of equipment to your TV. We recommend that you follow the instructions included
with the piece of equipment you wish to connect.
Safety Note
If you plan on being away from your home for an extended period of time, or if a
thunderstorm is approaching, you should unplug your television, and you may wish to
disconnect your TV from a rooftop or satellite antenna. You do not need to disconnect
your TV from a cable system.
