2.2.1Using HDMI

Cable and Satellite Boxes that have a HDMI digital interface should be connected to the HDMI input of the LCD HDTV for optimal results.

Note: To maintain the display quality, use a VIZIO certified HDMI cable that is 10 meters or less. See www.vizio.com or call 1-888-VIZIOCE (1-888-849-4623) for details.

Connecting your Cable or Satellite Box (Best)
