2.2 Connecting Your Cable or Satellite Box

2.2.1 Using HDMI

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

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

Connecting your Cable or Satellite Box (Best):

1.Turn off the power to the Plasma TV and HDTV Set-Top Box.

2.Connect a HDMI cable to the HDMI output of your HDTV Set-Top Box and the other end to the HDMI 1 Input (white color area) at the rear of the Plasma TV.

3.Turn on the power to the Plasma TV and HDTV Set-Top Box.

4.Select HDMI 1 using the INPUT button on the remote or side of the Plasma TV, or directly by pressing the HDMI button on the Remote Control.

Note:

a)The HDMI input on the Plasma 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.

b)If you are already using the HDMI 1 input for another component, or you do not want to use the HDMI 1 input for the Set-Top Box, you can connect the Set-Top Box to the HDMI 2 connection.

c)Refer to your HDTV Set-Top Box user manual for more information about the video output requirements of the product or consult your cable or satellite operator.
