●● HDMI

●● Component

●● External Input

Connect a video device to the TV via an HDMI connector for the best picture quality. If the device does not have an HDMI connector, try a component connector to get the next best picture quality.

"" The number of connectors and their names and locations may vary depending on the model.

"" Refer to the external device's operating manual when connecting it to the TV. The number of external device connectors and their names and locations may vary depending on the manufacturer.

Using a non-certified HDMI cable may result in a blank screen or a connection error.

Some HDMI cables and devices may not be compatible with the TV due to different HDMI specifications.

This TV does not support HDMI Ethernet Channel. Ethernet is a LAN (Local Area Network) built with coaxial cables standardised by the IEEE.

Refer to the diagram and connect the HDMI cable to the video device's HDMI output connector and the TV's HDMI input connector.

"" The number of connectors and their names and locations may vary depending on the model.
