Connecting your TV

Connecting a PC (Personal Computer)

Before you connect this TV to your PC, change the adjustment of your PC’s Resolution and Refresh rate. See “Monitor Display modes” at right.

Connect one end of a (male to male) VGA cable to the video card of the computer and the other end to the VGA connector PC at the side of the TV. Fix the connectors firmly with the screws on the plug. In case of a Multimedia computer, connect the audio cables to the audio outputs of your Multimedia computer and to the AUDIO L and R connectors of the PC IN jacks of the TV.

Set the video input source to PC mode (see “Selecting the video input source” on page 29 and “Picture/Audio adjustments in the PC mode” on page 39). The TV can be used as a computer monitor.

Notes:

Make sure to insert the plug of each cord securely.

During use the AC adapter becomes warm. This is not a malfunction.

WARNING:

Do not connect this unit to the power source using any device other than the supplied AC adapter or power cord. This could cause fire, electric shock, or damage.

Never lift the AC adapter by holding the AC cord. The AC adapter may fall, causing personal injury or equipment damage.

CAUTION:

Do not use the AC adapter if it is covered by a cloth etc., or pressed into a narrow area. This results in poor dissipation of heat and may cause fire, electric shock, or damage.

When this unit is not used for a long time, (e.g., away on a trip) in the interest of safety, be sure to unplug it from the wall outlet.
