Things to Consider Before You Connect

Protect Against Power Surges

• Connect all devices before you plug any power cords into the wall outlet or power strip.

NEVER plug your TV/DVD into an outlet that is controlled by a wall switch.

• Turn off the TV/DVD and/or device(s) before you connect or disconnect any cables.

• Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded. Refer to the Important Safety

Instructions.

Instructions at the beginning of the User's Guide

• Protect devices from overheating.

• Don’t block ventilation holes on any of the devices. Arrange the devices so that air can

circulate freely.

• Don’t stack devices.

• If you place devices in a stand, make sure you allow adequate ventilation.

• If you connect an audio receiver or amplifier, place it on the top shelf so the heated air

from it won’t flow around other devices.

Position Cables Properly to Avoid Audio Interference

• Insert each cable firmly into the designated jack.

• If you place devices above the TV, route all cables down one side of the back of the TV

instead of straight down the middle.

• If your antenna uses 300-ohm twin lead cables, do not coil the cables. Also, keep the twin

lead cables away from audio/video cables.

Use Indirect Light

Don’t place the TV/DVD where sunlight or room lighting will be directed toward the screen. Use

soft or indirect lighting.

Check Supplied Parts

Check that the following parts were packed with your product.

Connections and Setup Chapter 1 11

Get the Picture

The first part of connecting your TV/DVD is to get the picture, also known as the signal. The

back panel of your TV/DVD allows you to receive analog and/or digital channels by using the

ANTENNA/CABLE INPUT.

Getting Channels

What You Need

Antenna ("rabbit ears") or outdoor antenna with coaxial cable

Coaxial cable with cable service

A. Do you have an indoor or outdoor antenna? If not, go to step B. If so, plug the antenna or

coaxial cable from the wall outlet into the ANTENNA/CABLE INPUT to receive free off-air

local digital and analog channels.

B. Do you have cable? If so, plug the coaxial cable from the wall outlet into the ANTENNA/

CABLE INPUT to receive your cable channels.

C. Do you have a set-top box? If so, you may need to call your cable company or satellite

service provider. They may recommend special cables to allow you to view digital channels.

What You Need To Know

• Visit www.antennaweb.org for help deciding what type of antenna to use to receive the local

digital channels available to you. By entering where you live, this mapping program tells you

what local analog and digital stations are available using a certain antenna.

• When you are ready to watch channels, the channel banner displays the type of channel

you're viewing. Look for a D at the bottom of the screen for digital channels; look for an A for

analog channels. Go to page 32 for more information.

Connecting a Device with HDMI (Best)

High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) technology is an uncompressed digital connec-

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

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

is also compatible with devices that have a DVI output jack.

Using the example of a set-top box:

If your set-top box has an HDMI jack, connect an HDMI cable. Connect an HDMI cable to

the HDMI2/DVI INPUT jack or the HDMI1/DVI INPUT jack on the back of the TV/DVD and to

the HDMI Out jack on the back of the device.

-OR-

If your set-top box has a DVI jack, connect an HDMI cable and an HDMI/DVI adapter:

1. Connect an HDMI cable to the HDMI2/DVI INPUT jack or the HDMI1/DVI INPUT jack on

the back of the TV/DVD .

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

the DVI Out jack on the set-top box.

3. Since you’re using an HDMI/DVI adapter, you need to connect separate AUDIO cables to

the DVI AUDIO right and left jacks on the back of the TV/DVD and to the R and L AUDIO

jacks on the back of the device.

Most digital video is sent in a 16/9 format which does fill your screen, but it is sometimes sent

in 4/3 which does not fill your screen. It depends on how the station or source device is

formatting the video. If there are bars on-screen, press the FORMAT button to try a different format. This may eliminate the bars. Some bars can't be removed because of

the way the format is sent by the broadcaster. Go to page 37 for more explanation of screen

formats.

Changing Channels

• Digital channels can have both primary channels (like the analog channel number) and

sub-channels. To tune to a digital channel with a sub-channel, such as 10.1, enter the

primary channel number (10), then press the right arrow button. Enter the sub-channel

number (1) and press OK.

• Depending upon the type of signals you have connected to your HDTV, you might notice

that the channels change slower than you’re used to. This is perfectly normal. Digital cable

channels sometimes take longer to tune.

Explanation of Jacks (in alphabetical order)

This section describes the jacks on the back panel of your TV/DVD. There are several ways to

connect devices.

ANTENNA/CABLE INPUT Lets you connect a coaxial cable to receive the signal from your

antenna, cable, or cable box.

AUDIO/VIDEO INPUT 1 (VID1) Lets you connect a device that has composite video jacks,

such as a VCR or DVD player.

•

L AUDIO Provides left audio connection when using the VIDEO INPUT 1 jack. The left audio

connectors are usually white. For mono audio sources be sure to use the Left AUDIO INPUT.

•

R AUDIO Provides right audio connection when using the VIDEO INPUT 1 jack. The right

audio connector is usually red.

COMPONENT INPUT Lets you connect a device that has component VIDEO jacks, such as

a DVD player.

•

CMPT Y Pb Pr (Component Video) Provides good picture quality because the video is

separated into three signals. Use three video-grade or component VIDEO cables for the

connection. When using CMPT Y Pb Pr, make sure you connect left and right AUDIO cables

to the CMPT L and R AUDIO jacks.

•

CMPT L AUDIO Provides left audio connection when using the CMPT VIDEO inputs. The

left audio connector is usually white. For mono audio sources be sure to use the Left AUDIO

INPUT.

with an HDMI or a DVI output for the best picture quality.

•

HDMI/DVI INPUT (High-Definition Multimedia Interface/Digital Visual Interface) Provides

an uncompressed digital connection that carries both video and audio data by way of an

integrated mini-plug cable. Since HDMI technology is based on Digital Visual Interface (DVI),

the jack on the back of your TV is also compatible with DVI devices.

•

DVI AUDIO L (used for DVI only) Provides left audio connection when using the HDMI1 or

HDMI2 jack for DVI. The left audio connector is usually white. For mono audio sources be

sure to use the Left AUDIO INPUT.

•

DVI AUDIO R (used for DVI only) Provides right audio connection when using the HDMI1

or HDMI2 jack for DVI. The right audio connector is usually red.

PC VIDEO INPUT Connect your computer, or other device with a VGA OUTPUT, to this jack

using a 15 pin D-sub cable. Connect your computer, or other device with a VGA output, to this

jack using a 15 pin D-sub cable.

PC AUDIO (Stereo mini jack) Use to obtain sound when a PC is connected to the PC INPUT

Use a 3.5mm stereo mini pin cable (sometimes referred to as 1/8” stereo mini pin) to connect a

PC to your TV/DVD.

Note: Remember to

connect the left and right AUDIO cables because the DVI cable carries only the picture signal, not the sound.

Parental Controls and V-Chip

The choices in the US V-Chip and Canada V-Chip menus involve software inside your

TV/DVD referred to as V-Chip, which allows you to block TV programs and movies. TV

programs can be blocked by age-based ratings, such as TV-MA, which is explained on page

34. If available, TV programs can also be blocked by content, such as adult language (L). This

is explained on page 35. Movies can only be blocked by age-based ratings. This is explained

on page 35. Once you block programs, you can unblock programs by entering a password.

By default, the software inside your TV/DVD is turned off or unlocked. For instructions to lock

V-Chip, see page 34.

How V-Chip Works for USA and Canada

V-Chip reads the program’s age-based rating (TV-MA, TV -14, etc.) and content themes [(Violence (V), Adult Language (L), etc.)]. If you have blocked the rating and/or content themes that the

program contains, you will receive the message This channel is blocked. Change channel or

press OK to enter your password and temporarily deactivate the parental controls.

Broadcasters are not required to provide content themes, so programs received with no con-

tent themes will only be blocked if you block their age-based rating. You can also block out

programs that have been given an Exempt rating, and programs that are considered unrated.

Go to page 56 for the US and Canada ratings explanations.

Note: Parental control

settings are not available for HDMI1, HDMI2, CMPT or PC INPUTS. These settings must be set in the connected device's parental controls.

because broadcasters have the capability to add a new rating system for TV programs. These

ratings let you define additional parameters for parental controls. This option and its name are

dependent on the content acquired from the broadcaster.

Blocking Unrated/Exempt Programs

The Unrated/Exempt Ratings option lets you decide if programs that the V-Chip recognizes as

unrated or exempt can be viewed. Unrated TV programs may include news, sports, political,

religious, local and weather programs, emergency bulletins, public announcements, and pro-

grams without ratings. The Exempt option applies to both USA and Canadian unrated pro-

grams and Canadian programs rated E.

can't be used by someone, like a young child. The remote still tunes to any channel. If you're

using this to keep children from changing channels, remove access to any remote that is

capable of operating the television while you have the side panel blocked. Don’t forget to lock

Screen Formats

Screen format is the way the picture is displayed on your TV. Press the FORMAT button on

your remote to see if a different format is available for the video you are viewing. The format

changes as you press the FORMAT button and the format type is displayed at the bottom of

the screen.

Analog video is sent in a 4/3 format, which your TV displays in a 16/9 format. Most digital

video is sent in a 16/9 format which does fill your screen, but sometimes it is sent in 4/3 which

does not fill your screen. It depends on how the station or device connected to your TV is

formatting the video. If there are bars on the screen, press the FORMAT button to try a different

format that may eliminate the bars. Some bars can't be removed because of the way the

format is sent by the broadcaster.

Film Mode (3:2 Pulldown) Automatically detects video sources that were originally recorded

on film (like most movies) and subsequently converted to a different format (for TV broadcast,

for example). Film mode processes the converted signal so that it looks as close as possible to

the original. Another name for this process is reverse 3:2 pulldown.

The On setting (recommended): place a check in the box, enables the feature only when the

TV detects that movie playback quality could be improved.

The Off setting (uncheck the box) turns off film mode upconversion. Try using this setting if

you think the reverse 3:2 Pulldown is causing distortions in your picture.

PC Settings Adjust the PC settings when in PC mode. Video Noise Reduction (not available on PC or digital channels) Reduces picture “static” or

any type of interference. This feature is especially useful for providing a clearer picture in weak

analog signal conditions. Press the right arrow to choose between: Low for a softer, smoother picture that retains picture sharpness and detail; Normal for a slightly softer picture than the Low setting; High for an even softer, smoother picture than the other settings (the picture

detail is somewhat decreased).

Sound Menu

The Sound menu lets you adjust audio output. To access the Sound menu, press MENU on

the remote, and then select Sound from the Main Menu. The following sound items can be

adjusted:

right speakers.

SRS Option: ON/OFF Analog TV Sound Controls the way the sound comes through your speakers. The options

available vary according to the input selected.

Mono (available for regular TV viewing only) Plays the sound in mono only. Use this setting

when receiving broadcasts with weak stereo signals.

Stereo Splits the incoming stereo audio signal into left and right channels. Most TV

programs and recorded materials have stereo audio. The word Stereo appears in the channel banner when you tune to a program that is broadcast in stereo.

Second Audio Program (SAP) Plays the program’s audio in a second language, if one is

available. The letters SAP appear in the channel banner when you tune to a program that is broadcast with SAP information. SAP audio is broadcast in mono. SAP is also used to broadcast a program’s audio with descriptions of the video for the visually impaired.

Default Audio Language Choose the language you prefer for dialog on digital channels. If

your preferred language is being broadcast with a program, then the TV plays it. If not, then the TV plays the default audio for the program (usually English in the U.S.). The default digital

channel audio language options are English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, Japanese,

Chinese, Korean.

Current Audio Language (Not available for analog channels) Press the right arrow to

choose from the audio languages available for the program you're watching. The language you choose becomes your preferred audio language for all digital channels until you turn the TV off. If the language you choose here is not being broadcast with a program, then the TV plays the default audio for the program (usually English in the U.S.).

Note: This menu will gray-out when current channel selected is analog.

Note: Video noise

reduction is available for the CMPT inputs only if the signal is 480i.
