Connecting external equipment
Before connecting any external equipment, turn off all main power switches. If there is no switch
remove the mains plug from the wall socket.
HDMI™ (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is for use
with a DVD, decoder or electrical equipment with digital
audio and video output. It is designed for best
performance with 1080i high-definition video signals but
will also accept and display 480i, 480p, 576i, 576p and
720p signals.
A wide variety of external equipment can be
connected to the back of the television, therefore
the relevant owners manuals for all additional
equipment must be referred to.
We recommend SCART 1 for a decoder and SCART 2 for
a media recorder.
If connecting S-VIDEO equipment, set the INPUT for
EXT2. See page 22.
If the television automatically switches over to monitor
external equipment, return to normal television by
pressing the desired programme position button. To
recall external equipment, press
B
to select between
EXT1, EXT2, EXT3 (C), HDMI1, HDMI2 or PC.
The cable holder can be used for aerial, media recorder
and audio cables. Do not use the cable holder as a
handle and make sure all cables are removed before
moving the television.

Aerial cables:
Connect the aerial to the socket on the rear of the
television. If you use a decoder* and/or a media recorder
it is essential that the aerial cable is connected through
the decoder and/or through the media recorder to the
television.
SCART leads:
Connect the video recorder IN/OUT socket to the
television. Connect the decoder TV socket to the
television. Connect the media recorder SAT socket to the
decoder MEDIA REC. socket.
Before running Auto tuning put your decoder and media
recorder to Standby.
The phono sockets alongside the COMPONENT VIDEO
INPUT sockets will accept L and R audio signals.
In addition there is a fixed/variable external audio ouput
which enables the connection to a suitable Hi-Fi unit,
make sure the Speaker option in the Sound menu is set
of Off. The variable option is altered by using the sound
