You can connect many types of external equipment to your flat
screen TV, like a decoder, VCR, DVD player, game console, personal
computer and camcorder.
To view images coming from external equipment, select the input
source using
INPUT 1 to INPUT 5 or PC on the remote control
(page 14) or INPUT on the flat screen TV.
Caution
• To protect all equipment, always unplug the flat screen TV from
the power outlet before connecting to a decoder, VCR, DVD
player, game console, personal computer, camcorder or other
external equipment.

carefully before making connections.
• Unless stated otherwise, the connecting cables shown in the
