Connecting Devices to your TV You have several options for connecting your TV to different devices. The method you choose will be based upon the type of cables you have and the available outputs on your device. Connecting an antenna, cable set-top box or satellite receiver To connect an antenna,cable set-top box or satellite receiver:

1. Connect one end of a coaxial cable (not included) to the

RF OUT port on the antenna, cable or satellite box. If you are using an antenna with twin-lead cable, you may need a 300-75 Ohm adapter (not provided) to connect it to the back of your TV. Likewise, if you are using several antennas, you may need a combiner (not provided).

2. Connect the other end of the cable to the

ANT/CABLE port on the side of TV.

3. Using your remote, select the

Inputs icon in Home screen and select

as the input source. Connecting a satellite receiver, DVD player or other audio visual (AV) devices with a composite video cable (yellow/white/red) To connect an AV device with a composite video cable (not provided):

1. Use the audio and video cables to connect the composite video/audio ports of the external AV device to the

AV IN ports of the TV. (Video = yellow, Audio Left = white, and Audio Right = red)

2. Plug the connected devices into the AV connectors on the TV before switching it on.

3. Using your remote, select the

Inputs icon in Home screen and select Composite as the input source.

Connecting an AV device with an HDMI cable This type of connection supports digital connections between HDMI-enabled AV devices such as a Personal Video Recorder(PVR), DVD, AV receiver and digital devices. The HDMI version 1.4 inputs are great for any of your external devices that support a standard full high-definition resolution of 1080p. Please refer to the User Manual that came with your device for step-by-step instructions. To connect an AV device with an HDMI cable (not provided):

1. Use an HDMI cable to connect the HDMI output port of the AV device to the

HDMI port of the TV.

2. Plug the connected devices into the

HDMI port on the TV before switching it on.

3. Using your remote, select the

Inputs icon in Home screen and select the corresponding HDMI input. NOTES

• Because the HDMI connector provides video and audio signals, it is not necessary to connect an audio cable.

• We strongly recommend to use HDMI Cable with 2 cores as shown in the figure. Connecting a headphone You can connect headphone (not provided) to the HEADPHONE port on your TV. While the headphone is connected, the sound from the built-in speakers will be disabled. NOTES

• Headphones with microphones are not supported. Connecting a USB device You can connect the USB devices such as hard drives, USB sticks and digital cameras for browsing photos, listening to music and watching recorded videos.

1. Connect a USB device into the

• When connecting a hard disk or a USB hub, always connect the mains adapter of the connected device to the power supply. Exceeding a total current consumption may result in damage. The USB1.1 and USB2.0 devices maximum current consumption are 500mA.

• For individual non-standard high-capacity mobile hard disk, if its impulse current is greater than 500mA, it may cause TV-rebooting or self-locking. So the TV does not support it.

Connecting speakers or other audio receivers To connect speakers or other audio receivers with an audio cable (not provided):

1. Use an audio cable to connect the digital audio in port of the audio receiver device to the

2. Plug the connected devices into the main power socket before switching on the TV.

port on the back of the TV to the Optical port on the Amplifier. Connecting a digital sound bar to use Audio Return Channel (ARC) If you’d like to use the Audio Return Channel (ARC) feature to have sound sent from the TV back down an HDMI cable to a digital sound bar, then you will need to connect the cable to the HDMI (ARC) port. By using this feature, you will also be able to control the sound bar with your TV remote instead of using multiple remotes for each device. To connect a digital sound bar with an HDMI cable (not provided):

1. Connect the cable that’s attached to the sound bar to the

HDMI (ARC) port on the TV.

2. Turn on the sound bar by pressing the Power button.

• Only digital sound bars that require a wired connection are compatible with the TV.

Connecting Your TV to a Wireless or Wired Network You have the option to connect your TV to a wireless or wired network to access the Internet. For more information about the network settings on TV, see Network & Internet on page 17

Connecting to a wireless network Our built-in wireless LAN adapter supports the IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n communication protocols and we recommend that you use an IEEE 802.11n router. When you play a video over an IEEE 802.11 b/g connection, the video may not play smoothly. NOTES

• You must use the built-in Wireless LAN Adapter to use a wireless network because the set does not support an external USB network adapter.

• To use a wireless network, your TV must be connected to a wireless IP sharer. If the wireless IP sharer supports Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), your TV can use a DHCP or static IP address to connect to the wireless network.

• Select a channel for the wireless IP sharer that is not currently being used. If the channel set for the wireless IP sharer is currently being used by another device nearby, this will result in interference and communication failure.

• If you apply a security system other than the systems listed below, it will not work with the TV.

• If Pure High-throughput (Greenfield) 802.11N mode is selected and the Encryption type is set to WEP, TKIP or TKIP-AES (WPS2 Mixed) for your Access Point (AP), then the TV will not support a connection in compliance with these Wi-Fi certification specifications.

• If your access point (AP) supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), you can connect to the network via Push Button Configuration (PBC) or PIN (Personal Identification Number). WPS will automatically configure the SSID and WPA key in either mode. Connecting to a wired (Ethernet) network You can attach your TV to your LAN in one of the three following ways: Option 1 You can attach your TV to your LAN by connecting the LAN port on the back of your TV to an external modem using a Cat 5 LAN cable. See the illustration below. Wireless Adapterbuilt-in the TV set LAN CableWireless RouterThe LAN Port on the WallExternal Modem(ADSL / VDSL / Cable TV) The Modem Port on the WallEthernet Cable Modem Cable LAN TV PORTENGLISH

Option 2 You can attach your TV to your LAN by connecting the LAN port on the back of your TV to an IP Sharer which is connected to an external modem. Use an Ethernet cable for the connection. See the illustration below. Option 3 Depending on how your network is configured, you may be able to attach your TV to your LAN by connecting the LAN port on the back of your TV directly to a network wall outlet with an Ethernet cable. See the diagram below. If you have a Dynamic Network, you should use an ADSL modem or router that supports Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). Modems and routers that support DHCP automatically provide the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS, so you don’t have to enter them manually. Most home networks are Dynamic Networks. Some networks require a Static IP address. If your network requires a Static IP address, you must enter the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values manually on your TV’s Cable Setup Screen when you set up the network connection. To get the IP address, subnet mask, gateway and DNS values, contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP). NOTE

• You can use ADSL modems that support DHCP if your network requires a static IP address. ADSL modems that support DHCP also let you use static IP addresses.

• Check for the correct output connection on the external source and for the correct input connection on the TV.

• Make sure you have made the correct selection for the input mode for the incoming signal. When I turn on my TV, there is a delay for a few seconds before the picture appears. Is this normal?

• Yes, this is normal. The TV is initializing and searching for previous setting information. The picture is normal but there is no sound

• Check the volume settings.

• Check if ‘Mute’ mode is set to On. Sound but no picture or black and white picture

• If the picture is black and white, unplug the TV from the AC outlet and replug it after 60 seconds.

• Check that the Color is set to 50 or higher.

• Try different TV channels. The sound and/or picture is distorted or appears wavy

• An electric appliance may be affecting the TV. Turn off any appliances that are nearby and move it farther away from the TV.

• Insert the power plug of the TV set into another power outlet. The sound and picture is blurry or cuts out

• If using an external antenna, check the direction, position and connection of the antenna.

• Adjust the direction of your antenna or reset or fine tune the channel. A horizontal or vertical stripe appears on the picture and/or the picture is shaking

• Check if there is an appliance or electric tool nearby that is causing interference. The plastic cabinet makes a “clicking” type of sound

• The ‘click’ sound can occur when the temperature of the television changes. This change causes the television cabinet to expand or contract, which makes the sound. This is normal and the TV is OK. The remote control does not work

• Confirm that TV still has power and is operational.

• Change the batteries in the remote control.

• Check if the batteries are correctly installed. NOTE
