•To watch the VCR in this connection, press INPUT on the remote control until the correct video input appears (in this example, VID3). Note that because the digital decoder is in the TV, not the VCR, you cannot record digital channels.

•To watch the DVD player in this connection, press INPUT on the remote control until the correct video input appears (in this example, S- VID1 ).

Some cable systems may require a “conversion box.” If so, consult your cable company’s box tuning instructions for details.

Please Read Before Using the Digital Audio Out Jack

This TV’s optical digital output jack fully complies with the international standard governing this type of jack (IEC958), and is designed for connection to a Dolby Digital (AC-3 or PCM) receiver or Dolby Digital (AC-3 or PCM) decoder. Older equipment, some of which is not fully compliant with IEC958, may not be compatible with the Dolby Digital bitstream. Such a connection using anything other than Dolby Digital AC-3 or PCM receiver or decoder could create a high noise level, causing damage to headphones or speakers.
