TIPS ON REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS

♦COMPONENT Y-PbPr (COMPONENT 1 & 2) or HDMI (1, 2 & 3) connections are provided for high performance DVD players, VCRs etc. that have this feature. Use these connections in place of the standard video connection if your device has this feature.

♦If your device has only one audio output (mono sound), connect it to the left audio jack on (L) the Rear Panel.

♦Refer to the operating guide of your other electronic equipment for additional information on connecting your hook-up cables.

♦Connect only 1 component (VCR, DVD player, camcorder, etc.) to each input jack.

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

♦It may be necessary to adjust TINT to obtain optimum picture quality when using the Y-PbPr inputs. (See page 31).

♦When using a HDMI input from a Set-Top-Box, it is recommended to use a 1080p, 1080i or 720p input signal.

♦When the HDMI input is a 1080p signal, it is recommended that the length of the cable should be less than 5 meters.

NOTES • Completely insert all connection cord plugs when connecting to rear panel jacks. The picture and sound that is played back will be abnormal if the connection is loose.

• Cable plugs are often color-coded. Match colors of plugs and terminals, i.e. connect red to red, white to white, etc.
