To view high-definition programming, you must have connected to the TV a high-definition signal source such as an off-the-air high-definition antenna or cable HD signal, a cable or satellite provider HD set-top box, or an HD-DVD player. All sources, except an HD antenna or cable HD signal, must connect to one of the High Definition Input connector sets on the TV.

You may view high-definition digital media through your home network.

￿Do not install the TV on an unstable cart or stand; the unit may fall over and cause injury.

￿Do not install the TV where it has a protruding edge such as on a small table where the display overhangs the table surface.

￿Do not hang the TV from the ceiling; the unit may fall and cause injury.

￿Avoid direct sunlight that may damage the display or interfere with the operation of the remote control.

￿Avoid areas of high humidity or damp conditions that may cause fire or electrical shock.

￿Do not install TV near appliances such as a microwave, or near a heat source such as a fireplace or radiator.

￿Do not place the TV on a sloped or unstable surface.

￿Provide a minimum of 4 inches (10 cm) of ventilation clearance around the TV.

￿Wall-mounting: Your TV can be wall-mounted by using an HP-approved wall-mounting kit (sold separately):

LCD TV Flat Mount, Model PY043AA#ABA LCD TV Tilting Mount, Model PY044AA#ABA

To remove the TV stand, see “Removing or attaching the stand” on page 23. Then follow the installation instructions provided with the wall-mounting kit. HP recommends professional installation if you want to wall-mount your TV.

￿Consider the wireless network type: The MediaSmart HDTV is equipped with an IEEE 802.11n wireless module, which also supports the other standards of 802.11a/b/g.

HP recommends use of a dual-band IEEE 802.11n Wi-Fi network (access point/router and PC network card) for best wireless performance.
