HDMI connection notice

HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) allows you to enjoy high-definition digital images and high-quality sound by connecting the TV unit and HD devices. HDMI-compatible equipment (*1) with an HDMI or DVI output terminal, such as a Cable or Satellite box or a DVD player, can be connected to the HDMI connector using an HDMI compliant (fully wired) cable.

HDMI is the world's first complete digital consumer AV interface complying with a non-compression standard.

If the external equipment has only a DVI output, connect to the HDMI terminal via a DVI to HDMI adapter cable (*2).

When the DVI to HDMI adapter cable is used, connect the audio cable to the audio input terminal.

Audio settings can be made on the HDMI in menu screen. Applicable audio signal sampling frequencies (L.PCM): 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz

(*1): The HDMI logo is displayed on an HDMI-compliant device. (*2): Inquire at your local digital equipment retailer shop.

If the connected device has an aspect adjustment function, set the aspect ratio to "16:9".

The HDMI connectors are "type A".

The HDMI connectors are compatible with HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) copyright protection.

Devices with no digital output terminal may be connected to the input terminal of either "COMPONENT IN", or "VIDEO IN" to receive analog signals.

The HDMI input terminal can be used only with the following video signals: 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i and 1080p. Ensure that the device being connected to the TV can produce one of these video signals.
