For monaural devices, please connect Audio signal cable into L/Mono input jack.
Completely insert connection cord plugs when connecting to side panel jacks. If you do not, the played back picture may
be abnormal.
Cable plugs are often color-coded. Match colors of plugs and terminals, i.e. connect red to red, white to white, etc.
When making video connections, connect S-Video only or Video only. If both are connected, S-Video takes priority.
The exact arrangement you use to connect the VCR, Camcorder, DVD player, or HDTV Set-Top-Box to your LCD TV is dependent on
the model and features of each component. Check the operating guide of each component for the location of video and audio inputs and
outputs.

Connect an external source to one of the INPUT terminals, then press the INPUT button to show the Inputs List. Use the CURSORS ( A
and T ) to select the Input of your choice. Then press the SELECT button to confirm your choice (see page 19).
