Connections and Setup

Remove the two jack covers to attach the base.

Attach the screws into the four holes on each side of the TV’s base.

Attach the Base

Your TV comes shipped without the base attached so that you can choose to mount your TV either to its base or to a wall. If you want to mount your TV to the wall, don’t attach the base and instead follow the instructions on page 26. To attach the base, follow these instructions.

1.Find a strong elevated surface that is soft, flat, and very clean. Make sure the surface doesn’t have anything on it that can scratch the TV screen. Place the TV facedown, towards the edge of the surface so that when you attach the base it won’t rest on the surface.

2.Locate the base and screws.

3.If necessary, remove the two jack panel covers by pushing up on the tabs and pulling the covers out carefully.

4.Use a screwdriver to attach the screws into the four holes on each side of the TV’s base as the arrows indicate on the base.

5.You might want to leave the covers off until you’ve connected devices to your TV. Go to pages 5-8 for information on connecting your TV.

When you’ve connected devices to the jacks, cables can be conveniently placed in the groove at the bottom of the jack panels and the covers fit back in place over the cables.

HDTV Information

Your LCD TV is a high-definition monitor, which means it is capable of receiving high

definition TV programs. You’ll need a separate HDTV receiver or tuner to connect to your TV using one of the inputs that supports a high-resolution signal. Go to page 7 for an example.

If you’re connecting an antenna to the receiver or tuner, visit www.antennaweb.org to get help deciding what type of antenna to use to receive the local digital channels available to you. By entering where you live, this mapping program tells you what local analog and digital stations are available using a certain antenna.

Choose Your Connection

There are several ways to connect your television, depending on the devices you want to connect and the quality of the signal you want to achieve. It’s important to remember the different degrees of picture improvement for comparison. The DVI™ and Y Pb/Cb Pr/Cr (component) jacks are considered excellent; S-Video is very good; Video (composite) jacks are considered good; while the Tuner (Antenna or Cable) connection is fair.

The following are examples of some ways to connect your TV. Choose the connection which is best for you.
