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):
