Connecting your computer to a TV
In order to connect your computer to a TV, your computer must have an A/V
OUT jack. Not all VAIO® computers are equipped with an A/V OUT jack. To
see if your computer has an A/V OUT jack, check “Locating Controls and Ports”
in the Setting Up chapter of your printed online VAIO® Computer Quick Start.
To connect a TV to your computer
1 Turn off the computer.
2 Locate the A/V OUT jack on the computer.
3 Plug one end of an audio-video (AV) cable into the A/V OUT jack.
4 Plug the other end of the AV cable into the video-in ports on the TV.
