Cable TV Connection Guide
For information about connecting your TV to the cable outlet, refer to your TV’s’ owner‘s manual.

Be sure to bring the appropriate remote controls for your TV, VCR, or DVD player. Setting up your TV on a new cable system usually requires running auto setup via the menu button on your remote control.

However, it is the responsibility of each resident to discontinue any additional services that they may have requested through Comcast (i.e., HBO, CINEMAX, , INTERNET Service, etc)
