Connecting Your Cable or Satellite Box
Using HDMI (Best)
Cable and Satellite Boxes that have a HDMI digital interface should be connected using HDMI for optimal
results. To maintain image quality, use a VIZIO certified HDMI cable. This cable is available in 6, 15, and
30 foot lengths. Visit www.VIZIO.com or call 877-MYVIZIO (877-698-4946) for details.
1. Turn off your HDTV and Cable/Satellite box.
2. Connect an HDMI cable to the HDMI output of your Cable/Satellite box and the other end to the
HDMI 1, 2, 3, or HDMI SIDE jack on your HDTV.
3. Turn on the power to your HDTV and your Cable/Satellite box.
4. Select HDMI-1, HDMI-2, HDMI-3, or HDMI SIDE using the INPUT button on the remote control or
side of the TV.
Note:
• The HDMI input on your HDTV supports High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP).
HDCP encrypts the transmission between the video source and the digital display for added
security and protection.
• Refer to your Cable/Satellite Set Top Box user manual for more information about the video
output requirements of the product or consult your Cable or Satellite operator.
