About External Equipment
You can connect many types of external equipment to your Plasma Display, like a DVD player, VCR, game console, and camcorder.
To view images coming from external equipment, select the input source using the

button on the remote control or on the
Plasma Display.
• To protect all equipment, always turn off the Plasma Display before connecting to a DVD player, VCR, STB, or other external
equipment.
• Refer to the relevant instruction manual (STB, VCR, DVD player, etc.) carefully before making connections.
