HDMI/DVI Connection

Since HDMI technology is based on Digital Visual Interface (DVI), the jack on the back of your TV is

also compatible with components that have a DVI output jack.

Example: Personal Computer (PC)

1. Connect an HDMI cable to the HDMI/DVI IN 1 jack on the back of the TV.

2. Attach an HDMI/DVI adapter on the other end of the HDMI cable, then connect it to the DVI output

jack on the PC.

3. Since you’re using an HDMI/DVI adapter, you need to connect a separate audio cable to the DVI

AUDIO IN jack on the back of the TV and the audio ouput jack on the PC.

4. Turn on your TV; then turn on the PC.

5. Press the INPUT button on the remote control to open the Input list. Once open, press the INPUT

button repeatedly to select HDMI 1.

Connecting a Component with HDMI (Best)

High-Denition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) technology is an uncompressed digital connection that

carries both video and audio data by way of an integrated mini-plug cable.

Example: Component with HDMI jack.

1. Connect an HDMI cable to the HDMI IN 2 jack on the side of the TV (or the HDMI/DVI IN 1

jack or HDMI IN 3 jack on the back of the TV) and to the HDMI output jack on the component.

2. Turn on your TV; then turn on the component.

3. Press the INPUT button on the remote control to open the Input list. Once open, press the INPUT

button repeatedly to select HDMI 2 (or HDMI 1 or HDMI 3).

Don't forget:

If necessary, connect antenna or cable to get a picture. Go to page 10 for instructions.
