SETTING UP AND USING YOUR ANTENNA

1. Select a location to place your antenna. See “Tips for Better Reception”
   for more information.
   Note: This is an indoor antenna. Do not place it outside.

2. Attach double-sided tape to your antenna’s four corners, then firmly
   press the antenna to the wall to secure.
   Note: Do not secure your antenna with the double-sided tape until you’re sure
   it’s in the correct location to receive the channels you want OR

Attach the stand to the antenna by inserting the plastic tabs into the
steel base (1), then pushing the antenna down into the base (2).

3. Connect the power inserter’s coaxial connection to the coaxial jack on
   your TV, digital converter box, or set-top box.

4.  Plug the power adapter into a wall outlet, then plug the other end into
   the power inserter.
   Note: Use only the supplied power adapter. For the antenna to properly
   function, the power inserter must be installed and powered on.

5. Turn on your TV, then press input or source to select the input your
   antenna is connected to.
   Note: Turn on your digital converter box or set-top box if your antenna is
   connected to either device.

6. Open your TV’s setup menu, then select the “scan” or “channel scan”
   option. Your TV automatically searches for available channels in your
   area. See your TV’s user guide for detailed instructions.
   Note: If you don’t receive channels that you want, try moving your antenna to
   another location, then run the channel scan again.

Connecting the antenna directly to your TV

• Connect the coaxial cable to the coaxial jack on the back of your TV.
  Note: If you have an HDTV with a digital TV (ATSC) tuner, you can connect the
  antenna directly to the HDTV. Older TVs may require a separate digital TV tuner
  or digital converter box.

Note: The advanced amplifier requires the power inserter to be connected and
powering the antenna. The antenna will not work unless connected as shown.

Connecting the antenna with a digital converter or set-top box

• Connect the coaxial cable to your digital converter box or set-top
  box, then connect a video/audio cable (such as an HDMI, coaxial,
  or AV cable) from your converter box or set-top box to your TV.

TIPS FOR BETTER RECEPTION
For the best reception:

• Install the antenna as high as possible to avoid possible obstacles
  between the antenna and the transmission tower.

• If possible, place the antenna near windows.

• Keep the antenna away from sources of interference such as air
  conditioners, hair dryers, and microwave ovens.

• Run a channel scan (from your TV’s setup menu) every time you move
  your antenna.

• If possible, position your antenna toward the transmission tower. To
  determine which channels are available in your area, visit
  www.antennaweb.org. Type in your zip code to get help with antenna
  placement.

• Test the antenna in multiple locations to find the strongest signal.

• Run a channel scan monthly to make sure that you are receiving all
  possible channels.

• Some TVs have a signal strength indicator that can help with antenna
  placement. Check your TV manual to see if your TV has this feature.

• This antenna works with any TV or device with an ATSC tuner. See your
  device’s manual to check compatibility.
