IMPORTANT INFORMATION

for European Customers

Some PC monitors in Europe cannot be used simultaneously with television display. When you enable television display in Europe, the refresh rate for the monitor and television is set to 50Hz. Some monitors may not support this refresh rate and could be damaged.

Please check the documentation supplied with your monitor to see if your monitor supports a refresh rate of 50Hz.

If your monitor does not support 50 Hz (or if you are not sure), then turn off your monitor before turning on your computer when using your television as a display.

For information on disabling television display, see To enable and disable the television display on page 29.

Some televisions in Europe may use an SCART connection. If you use SCART, please read Using SCART connectors for European televisions on page 28 before attempting to connect your PC to your television.

Using an SCART connector with a Composite cable

The SCART connector supports only the Composite video format, which is the most common type. The above illustration shows how to connect to an SCART connector using a Composite cable.

If your television supports S-Video input, you should use an S-Video cable (available in most consumer electronics stores) to view your PC on a television. An S-Video connection provides a higher quality display than Composite video.
