Setup and Connections

Getting Started

This manual is designed to get you started

quickly. The first four sections of the manual

show you how to get your TV Setup and

Connected, run the Interactive Setup, Program

the Remote, and use all of the menus, features,

and controls of your TV.

The Reference section in the back of the book

contains troubleshooting tips, care and cleaning

instructions, accessory ordering information

and your warranty.

Well… if your TV’s out of the box, let’s get

started.

Check out the notes that have been

added throughout the manual in

these Tip Boxes. There are some

important tips that will help you get

the most from your TV.

Setup and Connections

Step 1: Unpack the TV

Make sure to locate the remote control.

Step 2: Connect Your TV

There are three types of connections outlined in this section:

TV Only: If you’re only going to connect the

TV to your home antenna or cable

system.

The Basic

Connection: If you’re going to connect the TV to a

VCR or satellite receiver.

Advanced

Connections: If you’re going to make multiple

connections, hooking up the TV to a

VCR and a satellite receiver.

Cable information and illustrations are given for each type of

connection. Once you have completed your desired connection

you may skip forward to Step 3.

TV Only

This is a basic connection from an antenna or cable system to

your TV. Connect the cable into the Cable/Antenna jack as shown.

Cables

You will use the following cable to make your connection:

Coaxial Cable: These cables carry audio and

video signals to the TV from an antenna, cable, or

cable box.

Important Stand Information

CAUTION: Choose the location for

your TV carefully. Take precautions

that the stand or other furniture on

which the TV is placed is properly

located (see Important Safeguards

sheet) and of adequate size and

strength to prevent the TV from

accidentally being tipped over,

pushed off, or pulled off. This could

cause damage to the TV and/or

personal injury.

Before You Connect

Protect against power surges:

• Connect all components before

plugging any power cords into the

wall outlet.

• Turn off the TV and/or component

before connecting or disconnecting

any cables.

• Make sure all antennas and cables

are properly grounded. Refer to the

Important Safeguards sheet

packed with your TV.

Once you have completed this

connection you may skip to Step 3.

Your TV may be different!

The MG25326 does not have audio

outputs, while the MG31526 has an

additional S-Video input. Read

Advanced Connections

in this section

for more information about possible

connections.

Setup and Connections

The Basic Connection

The basic connection below (TV and VCR) is the most common

connection and is therefore used to illustrate a single

component connection with your TV. For better sound and

picture quality and multiple component connection information

refer to the next section,

Advanced Connections

Cables

You will use the following type of cable to make your

connection:

Coaxial Cables: In this connection, two

coaxial cables are used: one connects from

an antenna, cable, or cable box to the VCR,

and one connects from the VCR to the TV.

These cables carry both audio and video

signals.

How to View the VCR

To watch the VCR in this connection tune

TV to Channel 3 or 4.

Later, in the

Interactive Setup

section

you will program the TV to automatically

tune to Channel 3 or 4 when you turn on

the VCR.

Advanced Connections

Advanced connections give you better sound and video by

separating the audio and video signals and enabling you to

connect multiple components.

This section describes the types of inputs available on the back

of your TV and suggests ways you can use them for optimum

performance.

Back of the TV

The number of jacks on the back panel of your TV depends on

the model number of your TV. Find out the model number of

your TV and look for its corresponding diagram either below or

on the next page. When connecting A/V cables, be sure to

connect corresponding OUTPUTS and INPUTS (Video to Video,

Right Audio to Right Audio, etc.).

Once you have made your

connections you will need to

program the TV to tune to the

correct Video INPUT channel in order

to see and hear audio and video from

the component. You will program

this later in the

Interactive Setup.

Model MG27526

VIDEO and AUDIO IN Use these input jacks to connect a

VCR, Laserdisc player, DVD player, satellite receiver or

Internet Access Device. To view the component connected to

VIDEO, use the INPUT button on the remote.

AUDIO OUT Use these output jacks to connect to an

audio receiver or amplifier for variable controlled or fixed

level stereo output.

VCR CONTROL This jack is for a feature not available in

your market at the time of this printing. The circuitry that

would allow this feature to work has been disabled in your

TV.

CABLE/ANTENNA Takes the signal input from a cable,

cable box, or an off-air antenna. Can also be used for basic

component connections.

MG31526. S-Video connections can be used for better video

quality picture.

Setup and Connections

Sample Connections

The following are sample connection scenarios you may

encounter when connecting components to your TV.

Note: those components which offer an S-Video

connection, such as DVD, VCR or satellite receivers, must

match their S-Video connection with their audio INPUT

connection.

Cables

You will use the following types of cables to make your

connection:

Coaxial Cables: Carries the signal

from the antenna or cable directly to

the television or through a cable box,

as needed by your cable system.

Audio/Video Cables: Carries audio

and video from a component to the

TV.

S-Video Cable: Carries video from

an S-Video capable component which

provides best picture quality. Note:

Only the MG31526 has an S-Video

connection.

TV and Stereo VCR

Compared to the Basic Connection, using Audio/Video

and S-Video (if available) cables will enhance the sound

and picture quality from a component.

Cautions:

Position Cables to Avoid Audio Hum

or Interference

• Insert all cables firmly into jacks.

• Place the audio/video cables to the

sides of the TV’s back panel

instead of straight down the

middle.

• Try not to coil any twin-lead cables

and keep them away from the

audio/video cables.

Protect Your Components From

Overheating

• Do not block ventilation holes in

any of the components. Arrange

the components so that air can

circulate freely.

• Do not stack components.

• Allow adequate ventilation when

placing your components in a

stand.

• Place an amplifier on the top shelf

of the stand so heated air rising

from it will not flow around other

components.

How to View Your VCR

To watch the VCR in this connection,

press TV to put the remote control into

TV mode, then press INPUT to toggle to

the video (VID) inputs.

In the

Interactive Setup

section you can

program the TV to automatically tune to

the VID input channel when you turn on

the VCR.

Most Audio/Video cables

are combined into one

cable with three

heads on each end.

We show individual

cables in these sample

connections. Either may

be used, but you must be

sure to connect Video to Video, Right to

Right and Left to Left.
