CONNECTING EXTERNAL DEVICES

You can enjoy picture and sound by connecting a VCR or a home video game system to the terminals

located on the rear of the TV set.

When connecting an external device, turn off the power of the main unit first to prevent any possible

damage.

•PC connection is not possible.

•For the cable, use a commercially available audio/video cable.

•Only connect audio/video signals to AV-IN1 and 2 terminals. Connecting other signals may result in a malfunction.

•AV-IN1 has 2 video input terminals: VIDEO and S-VIDEO. When you connect external devices to both terminals

(and if you select AV-IN1), you can only view pictures from the S-VIDEO terminal. To view the picture from the

VIDEO terminal, do not connect any external device to the S-VIDEO terminal.

•For more information about external device connections, see the manuals of your external devices.

•If HDTV (720P/1080I) signals are input to the COMPONENT terminals, “NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THIS SIGNAL”

will appear and playback cannot be viewed.
