COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT Use to connect an optional component video
source, such as a DVD player. This connection provides optimum quality. Note that
it is essential to match the color coded connectors between a compatible device
and the television.
Notes:
• When watching an image via the COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT jacks, you
will not be able to manipulate the screen format.
• If the component you’re connecting to the TV has Component Output
jacks that aren’t labeled Y P
B
and P
R,
the color of the picture displayed on
your TV might not look right because other types of Component Video
(sometimes labeled Y, Cr, Cb, or YUV) separate the colors differently.
• AUDIO R/L The audio jacks provide stereo sound. When connected, audio
volume from the main front and rear speakers is variable audio.

Unlike a single video input, component video maintains the video
signal as three separate signals through these three jacks. To ensure maximum
picture quality, use three video-grade cables for the Y, P
B
and P
R
connections.
AUDIO OUTPUTS
• FIXED L/R Provides fixed-level of audio output from the television. This
audio output is ideal for audio recording or for connecting to an A/V receiver
amplifier (an auxiliary baseband component) when you want to control the
volume through the A/V receiver instead of the TV. Be sure to turn off the
internal speakers in the TV’s menu system (go to page 111 for details).
• VARIABLE L/R Use to connect an A/V receiver or amplifier (an auxiliary
baseband component) for variably-controlled stereo output.
• RIGHT and LEFT Speaker Terminals Use to connect external speakers for
right and left surround sound.
• INT / EXT (switch) INT sends audio to the TV’s internal speakers only. EXT
sends audio to the external speakers only.
