The best connection for a PC is at the back of the TV. A more practical connection, but only for viewing photos and films from your PC, is the connection at the side of the TV.

çCaution

Before connecting the PC, set the PC monitor refresh rate to 60Hz.

Connected at the back of the TV

Use the DVI connection of your PC to connect to a HDMI connection of the TV. Use a HDMI to DVI cable or a HDMI-to-DVI-adaptor.

Add an Audio L and R cable and connect it to Audio L and R jacks of ANALOG AUDIO IN of the TV.
