Connecting Your Cable or Satellite Box

You have four options for connecting your cable or satellite box to your HDTV: HDMI, Component, Composite, or Coax (RF). Based on your home theater configuration, you can decide which option is the right one for you. Refer to your set-top box user manual for more information about the video output requirements or consult your cable or satellite operator.

Using HDMI (Best)

Cable and satellite boxes that have a HDMI digital interface should be connected to the HDMI input on your HDTV for optimal results.

NOTE: To maintain the display quality, use a VIZIO certified HDMI cable. Length is available up to up to 32.8 feet (10 meters). See www.VIZIO.com or call 1-888-VIZIOCE (1-888- 849-4623) for details.

1.Turn off your HDTV and set-top box.

2.Connect the HDMI cable from the from the HDMI OUT jack on your set-top box to an available HDMI jack on the back or side of your HDTV.

3.Turn on your HDTV and set-top box.

4.Press HDMI repeatedly on the remote control to view the content. You can also press INPUT on the remote control.

NOTE:

If HDMI1 is being used, connect to the HDMI2 port instead.

The HDMI input on the TV supports High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP). HDCP encrypts the transmission between the video source and the digital display for added security and protection.
