Notes: The front panel illustration shows a typical front panel layout. The
exact look may be different from the one on the front of your TV.
If you use the Front Button Block feature, the front panel no longer provides
access to the menus. The Front Button Block feature disables all front panel
buttons but not the jacks. For more information, see Chapter 3.
The Front of Your TV
Front Input Jacks
The TV has front input jacks for convenience in connecting a camcorder, digital camera, or video game
system. Look for a hinged door and press to open the cover. Please note the illustration below is just an
example of how these jacks might appear.
Notes: When you plug in headphones, the TV’s internal speakers are muted. Use the VOL up or
down button to control the volume.
When connecting a device that uses a monaural cable, such as some camcorders, use the L/MONO
input jack to get sound from both speakers.

(Power button and indicator) Turns the TV on and off. The indicator lights when TV is on. Your HDTV’s
lamp has a cool-down period when the TV is turned off, and a warm up period when the TV is turned on. If
you try to turn the TV on during a cool-down, you will hear audio and then the picture will be displayed after a
few moments. This could take up to one minute. For different light status of the indicator, see above.
