If your TV includes HDMI digital connections, connect
an HDMI cable (not supplied) as shown for the highest
quality of picture and sound from your TV.
CAUTION: Always
disconnect the player,
TV, and any other AV
system components
from the mains before
making or changing
any connections.
HDMI CONNECTION TO A SURROUNDSOUND DECODER
If your audio-visual system includes a separate surroundsound decoder with HDMI connections, you can use two
HDMI cables (not supplied) to connect your player to the
decoder and then to the TV.
