Connecting Your Cable or Satellite Box

Using HDMI (Best)

Cable and Satellite Boxes that have a HDMI digital interface should be connected using HDMI for optimal results. To maintain image quality, use a VIZIO certified HDMI cable. This cable is available in 6, 15, and

30foot lengths. Visit www.VIZIO.com or call 877-MYVIZIO(877-698-4946) for details.

1.Turn off your HDTV and Cable/Satellite box.

2.Connect an HDMI cable to the HDMI output of your Cable/Satellite box and the other end to the HDMI 1, 2, 3, or HDMI SIDE jack on your HDTV.

3.Turn on the power to your HDTV and your Cable/Satellite box.

4.Select HDMI-1,HDMI-2, HDMI-3,or HDMI SIDE using the INPUT button on the remote control or side of the TV.
