Setup

Unpack the Antenna: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Ensure all parts are present.
Connect to TV: Connect the coaxial cable from the antenna to the "Antenna In" or "Cable In" port on the back of your television.
Position the Antenna: For optimal reception, place the antenna in a location with minimal obstructions, preferably near a window and facing the direction of local broadcast towers. You may need to experiment with different positions to find the best signal.
Run a Channel Scan:
- Turn on your television.
- Access your TV's setup menu (usually labeled "Menu," "Settings," or "Setup").
- Navigate to the "Channel Scan," "Auto Program," or "Auto Tune" option.
- Select "Antenna" or "Air" as the input source, then initiate the scan. This process may take several minutes.
Adjust for Best Signal: After the scan, check the picture quality of the received channels. If reception is poor on certain channels, try repositioning the antenna and running another channel scan.

Operating

Once the antenna is set up and a channel scan is complete, operating the antenna is straightforward.

Channel Selection: Use your television's remote control to change channels as you normally would.
Signal Strength: Some televisions have a signal strength meter in their settings menu. This can be useful for fine-tuning antenna placement.
Rescanning Channels: It is recommended to rescan for channels periodically (e.g., monthly) or if you notice a loss of channels, as broadcast towers may change frequencies or new channels may become available.

Maintenance

The Jasco Philips Broadcast TV Antenna requires minimal maintenance.

Cleaning: Dust the antenna periodically with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or abrasive materials.
Cable Inspection: Periodically check the coaxial cable for any signs of damage or wear. Ensure connections are secure.
Indoor Use Only: This antenna is designed for indoor use. Do not expose it to outdoor elements, extreme temperatures, or moisture.
