To view television channels correctly, a signal must be received by the set from one of the following sources:
- An outdoor aerial / A cable television network / A satellite network

> What is HDMI?
- HDMI, or high-definition multimedia interface, is a next-generation interface that enables the transmission of digital
audio and video signals using a single cable without compression.
- "Multimedia interface" is a more accurate name for it especially because it allows multiple channels of digital
audio (5.1 channels).The difference between HDMI and DVI is that the HDMI device is smaller in size, has the
HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) coding feature installed, and supports multi - channel digital
audio.
- Use the HDMI/DVI terminal for DVI connection to an extended device.
> You should use the DVI-to-HDMI cable or DVI-HDMI Adapter for the connection, and the "R - AUDIO - L"
terminal on DVI for sound output. - When connecting this product via HDMI or DVI to a Set Top Box, DVD Player
or Games Console etc, make sure that it has been set to a compatible video output mode as shown in the table
below. Failure to observe this may result in picture distortion, image breakup or no picture.
> Supported modes for DVI or HDMI
- Do not attempt to connect the HDMI/DVI connector to a PC or Laptop Graphics Card.
(This will result in a blank screen being displayed)
