Connecting with External Devices
You can enjoy picture and sound by connecting a VCR or a home video game system to the terminals located on the rear of
the LCD TV set.
When connecting an external device, turn off the power of the LCD TV set first to prevent any possible damage.
Example of External Devices that can be Connected
NOTE
• For the cable, use a commercially available audio/video cable.
• PC connection is not possible.
• For more information about external device connections, see the operation manuals of your external devices.
• Make sure that the corresponding cables are connected to each terminal. Connecting other cables may result in a malfunction.
• INPUT2 has two terminals, VIDEO and S-VIDEO terminals. If your external device has an S-VIDEO terminal, S-VIDEO connection is
recommended. S-VIDEO provides a finer, more detailed picture. If both terminals are connected, S-VIDEO terminal takes a priority.
• Only when 480
