You can use an HDMI jack to connect a DVI device to your TV. You need
to attach an HDMI-to-DVI adapter to the end of the HDMI cable that
connects to the DVI device.
Cautions
• Check the jacks for position and type before
making any connections.
• Loose connections can result in image or color
problems. Make sure that all connections are
tight and secure.
• The external audio/video equipment shown
may be different from your equipment. If you
have questions, refer to the documentation that
came with your equipment.
• Always unplug the power cord when
connecting external equipment.

Connecting power

To connect the power:
• Connect the AC power cord to the AC connector on the back of
your TV, then plug the other end into a power outlet.
Notes
• Your TV should only be operated from the
power source indicated on the label.
• Always unplug the AC power cord from the
power outlet when you will not be using your
TV for an extended period of time.
