COMPONENT: Y-PBPR(INPUT 3 and INPUT 4) connections are provided for high performance components, such as DVD players and set-top- boxes. Use these connections in place of the standard video connection if your device has this feature. INPUT 3 accepts both composite and component video signals.

Your component outputs may be labeled Y, B-Y,and R-Y. In this case, connect the components B-Youtput to the TV’s PB input and the components R-Youtput to the TV’s PR input.

Your component outputs may be labeled Y-CBCR. In this case, connect the components CB output to the TV’s PB input and the components CR output to the TV’s PR input.

You may use composite and component video signals for INPUT 3 and INPUT 4.

It may be necessary to adjust TINT to obtain optimum picture quality when using the Y-PBPRinputs (see page 32).

To ensure no copyright infringement, the MONITOR OUT output may be abnormal, when using the Y-PBPRjacks.

When using an HDMI input from a Set-Top-Box, it is recommended that a 1080i or 720p input signal is used.

NOTE: 1. Connect only one component to each input jack.

2.Follow connections that pertain to your personal entertainment system.

3.INPUT 3 and INPUT 4 can accomodate Composite and Component video signals.

4.Cables are not included with the purchase of this TV, except when noted as “provided”.

MACROVISION NOTES:

1.Video signals fed through a VCR may be affected by copyright protection systems and the picture will be distorted on the television.

2.Connecting the television directly to the Audio /Video output of a Set-Top-Box will assure a more normal picture.
