Connecting to an AV Device
Using an HDMI cable or HDMI to DVI Cable: HD connection (up to 1080p)
We recommend using the HDMI connection for the best quality HD picture.
Available devices: DVD player, Blu-ray player, HD cable box, HD satellite receiver (STB).
✎
HDMI IN 1 (DVI), 2, PC/DVI AUDIO IN
x
When using an HDMI/DVI cable connection, you must use the
HDMI IN 1 (DVI)
jack for video. A DVD, Blu-ray
player, HD cable box, or HD STB satellite receiver may require a DVI-HDMI (DVI to HDMI) cable or DVI-HDMI
(DVI to HDMI) adapter. The
PC/DVI AUDIO IN
jack is required for audio.
x
Be sure to use an HDMI cable with a thickness of 14 mm or less.
x
The picture may not display normally (if at all) or the audio may not work if an external device that uses an older
version of HDMI mode is connected to the TV. If such a problem occurs, ask the manufacturer of the external
device about the HDMI version and, if out of date, request an upgrade.
x
Be sure to purchase a certified HDMI cable. Otherwise, the picture may not display or a connection error may
occur.
