Front Connections Panel

There are four jacks on the lower-right front front of your TV that make connecting Audio/Video devices like video games and camcorders very simple.

The jacks are like those found on the back jack connection panel. This means that most equipment that connects to those types of jacks on the rear jackpack, may be connected to the Front connection panel (Front Video).

To use the Front jacks as the signal source, select them using Main input menu as described on page 23. They will be named ???Front Video??? in the Main input menu.

When you select Front video or Front S-Video, the Front Audio inputs are automatically selected as well.

Do not connect to both Video and S-Video at the same time. Connect either Video or S-Video only.

Antenna / Cable Service Hookup

Cable TV

Wall jack

RF coaxial wire (75 ohm)

If you receive your RF signal through an antenna that is several years old and con- nects with two small prongs, you will need to purchase a 300 to 75 ohm adapter. It should be available from your local

electronics dealer.

We recommend using a 75 ohm cable for your antenna connection in order to prevent interference.

Mini glossary

CAUTION : If you are not sure of the type of signal(s) you are receiving, let EZ Scan complete all the channel signal-type searches. The TV will let you know when the analog, cable, and digital channel scans are complete.

For best signal reception, it is recommended to have your Antenna professionally adjusted.

-This DTV supports HDCP(High-bandwidth Digital Contents Protection) Protocol for DTV(480p, 720p, 1080i) modes.

-When you Connect with HDMI Source Devices (DVD Player or Set Top Box) supporting Auto HDMI function, automatically, support Plug & Play and then set the HDMI Source Devices(1920 x 1080i). After reading in HDMI Source Devices using Display Data Channel(DDC) Protocol, EDID stored in DTV is used. If HDMI Source Devices not supported Auto HDMI/DVI is been, the Resolution is setted, manually.

-To get the best picture quality, adjust the DVD Player or Set Top Box output resolution to 1920 x 1080i.

-When Source Devices have DVI Output Connector, you must connect audio with separated cable. (Refer to <How to connect>)

-The HDMI is not supported in 480i source.

How to connect

1. When Source Devices(DVD Player or Set Top Box) support HDMI.

-If Source Devices have HDMI Output Connector, Source Devices connect to DTV with HDMI Cable .(not supplied with the product).

-If Source Devices support Auto HDMI, automatically, Source Devices divert output resolution in 1920 x 1080i. But if not, resolution divert Manually Setting for reference Manual of Source Devices.

-To get the best picture quality, adjust the DVD Player or Set Top Box output resolution to 1920 x 1080i.

-Because HDMI sends Digital Video and Audio with one cable, need not especial Audio Cable for using HDMI Cable.

2. When Source Devices(DVD Player or Set Top Box) supports DVI.

-If Source Devices have DVI Output Connector, Source Devices connect to DTV with HDMI to DVI Cable (not supplied with the product).

-If Source Devices support Auto DVI, automatically, Source Devices divert output resolution in 1920 x 1080i. But if not, resolution divert Manually Setting for reference Manual of Source Devices.

-To get the best picture quality, adjust the DVD Player or Set Top Box output resolution to 1920 x 1080i.

-In this case, Audio use other cable. When Source Devices have Fiber Optic Digital Audio Output Connector, Digital Audio DVI Input(DVI) of DTV connect to Fiber Optic Digital Audio Cable (not supplied with the product) or when Source Devices have Analog Audio Output Connector, RGB/DVI Audio Input of DTV connect to Audio Cable (not supplied with the product). And then you can listen to normal Audio.

Maintenance

Early malfunctions can be prevented. Careful and regular cleaning can extend the amount of time you will have your new TV. Be sure to turn the power off and pull out the power cord before you begin any cleaning.

SCREEN CLEANING

1.Here???s a great way to keep the dust off your screen for a while. Wet a soft cloth in a mixture of lukewarm water and a little fabric softener or dish washing detergent. Wring the cloth until it???s almost dry, and then use it to wipe the screen.

2.Make sure the excess water is off the screen, and then let it air-dry before you turn on your TV.

CABINET CLEANING

1.Use a soft cloth with a mild soap solution to wipe the cabinet.

2.Rinse the cloth and wipe the cabinet again.

3.Let the cabinet air-dry before turning the TV on.

EXTENDED ABSENCE

If you expect to leave your TV dormant for a long time (such as a vacation), unplug the power cord from the wall power outlet to protect against possible damage from lightning or power surges. If you use an off-air antenna, you may also want to disconnect it from the back of your TV before leaving.

P A G E 5 1

Maintenance (Continued)

PICTURE INTERFERENCE

Even though you may be getting cable, the signal may be weak, which means the quality

of your picture may suffer due to other factors. If there are problems with the image on your TV, consult the Troubleshooting guide on the following pages. You may also want to contact your cable service provider to determine if the problem is from the cable service.

VIDEO GAMES AND OTHER FIXED-PATTERN DISPLAYS

If you use your TV to play video games or for other uses that involve single, fixed images, such as a photo-CD player, you should avoid setting the Brightness level too high.

If static images, like network identification icons or patterns, are left on the screen for a long time period, they may leave a permanent impression on the TV screen. You can reduce the chance of this happening by

limiting the amount of time you use the fixed-image display, and by reducing the contrast and brightness levels.

If you unplug your TV, you may have to reset the clock using the Time menu described earlier.

P A G E 5 2

Troubleshooting

Some quick and easy tips for fixing problems yourself.
