NOTE
• About the MONITOR OUT terminals
The MONITOR OUT terminals cannot output the following
signals:
1 Video signals input from the COMPONENT VIDEO
terminal
2 Video signals from a personal computer
3 Digital video and audio signals from the HDMI terminals
• When watching images played back on a VCR connected to
the MONITOR OUT terminals, select an input source (e.g., TV
channel reception) on the recording equipment other than
external input sources. Selecting an external input source
may result in distorted images or noise.
• Make sure to place the VCR into the standby status when
presetting TV programs for recording with the TV Guide On
Screen™ system.
• The MONITOR OUT terminal may result in audio delay
between the speaker and AUDIO. This may be reduced by
muting the speakers on the Plasma Display. Nonetheless,
you may experience delay between audio and video.
• If degraded picture quality is observed while viewing copy-
protected VOD movies connect the Plasma Display directly
to other TV sets. Do not connect through a VCR.

Connecting other audio equipment

The digital audio output terminal (optical) on this system can
output Dolby Digital signals. Using an optical digital cable,
connect an AV receiver to the digital audio output terminal
(optical) on the rear of the Plasma Display. This allows audio
such as digital TV broadcasting to be played in high quality.
If your AV receiver does not have a digital audio input terminal
(optical), you may connect the MONITOR OUT terminals
(AUDIO) on the rear of the Plasma Display to the audio input
terminals on the AV receiver. However, this method may result
in audio delay between the speakers and AUDIO, which may be
reduced by muting the speakers on the Plasma Display.
Nonetheless, you may experience delay between audio and
video.
NOTE
• When using the digital audio output terminal (optical), you
need to make settings depending on your AV receiver. For
more information, see the instruction manual that came
with the AV receiver.
