USING EXTERNAL DEVICES
_______________
DVD player, DVD recorder, video recorder or set-
top box
Note:
Which television socket(s) you connect your external devices to
depends on the sockets the external device is equipped with
and the signals which are available.
Remember that with many external devices, the resolution of the
video signal must be adjusted to the input sockets of the televisi-
on (see the operating manual of the external device). You can
find out which values you need to set by referring to the guideli-
nes in the section about connection options.
Note:
Do not connect any other equipment while the device is switched
on. Switch off the other equipment as well before connecting it.
Only plug the device into the mains socket after you have
connected the external devices.
High definition HD ready
Your television can receive high-definition television signals (HDTV).
You can connect the input sources (HDTV set-top box or HDTV DVD
player) to the »
HDMI INPUT
« socket (digital HDTV signal).
