Understanding the basics
Turning your TV on or off
To turn your TV on or off (standby mode):
1Plug the power cord into an AC power outlet.
2 Press POWER. Your TV turns on.
3Press POWER again to turn off your TV. When you turn off your TV, it goes into standby mode.
Warning: When your TV is in standby mode, it is still receiving power. To completely disconnect power, unplug the power cord.
Note: If your TV does not receive an input signal for several minutes, it automatically goes into standby mode.
Selecting the video input source
The first time you turn on your TV, you must select the TV signal source. Your TV stores this information, so you do not need to change the TV signal source unless it changes. For example, you change from an outside antenna to cable TV.
To select the video input source:
1Turn on your TV, then press INPUT on the remote or on the TV. The INPUT SOURCE menu opens.
2Press 
or 
to highlight the video source, then press ENTER.
