Digital Audio (Optical) Connection

Before connecting any external device or cable to the TV, first verify the TV's model number. A sticker showing the model number is attached to the back of the TV. The connection method varies depending on the model.

Connecting an AV receiver to the TV via a digital audio (optical) connector lets you listen to digital audio.

Connecting a device using an optical cable does not automatically turn off the TV speakers. To turn off the TV's speakers, set TV Sound Output (Sound > Speaker Settings > TV Sound Output) to something other than TV Speaker.

Adjust the audio device's volume using its remote control.

"" An unusual noise coming from the audio device while you are using it may indicate a problem with the audio device itself. If this occurs, ask for assistance from the audio device manufacturer.

"" Digital audio is only available with 5.1-channel broadcasts.

Refer to the diagram and connect the optical cable to the TV's digital audio output connector and the device's digital audio input connector.
