CENTER SPEAKER INPUT
• INTERNAL SPEAKER SOURCE - TV / EXT AMP Switch
- TV Position Sound comes from TV’s internal speakers.
- EXT AMP Position Internal speakers are used for an external center
channel. When an external audio/video receiver’s center channel
output is connected to the TV’s center channel input, center channel
audio comes out of the TV’s internal speakers.
• CENTER CHANNEL TERMINALS Connect the audio/video receiver’s
center channel output to the TV’s center channel input. Switch the
INTERNAL SPEAKER SOURCE to EXT AMP position.

•V (VIDEO) provides composite video connection and connector is usually
yellow.
• L/MONO AUDIO provides left audio connection and connector is usually
white.
Note: If your component has only one output for audio (mono), connect
it to the left (white L/Mono) audio jack on the TV and don’t connect the
right audio part of the cable.
•R AUDIO provides right audio connection and connector is usually red.
