Connections A. Connecting to a TV 1. Using an AV cable Black If your TV has Audio/Video inputs, you can connect the player to your TV using an AV cable (not included). TV 2. Using a HDMI cable For TVs that support it, HDMI can provide the best quality audio and video output (depending on media source), and so is the preferred connection type. The HDMI cable incorporates both audio and video signals, so you will have just one cable running from the unit to your TV. Using a HDMI cable (not included), connect the HDMI OUT jack on your unit to the HDMI IN jack on your TV or HDMI-compatible display. AV Cable (not included) • When a HDMI cable is connected, the unit's speaker TV will be muted and the audio will instead output to the connected device. • Configure the Video Setup options (found in the HDMI Cable (not included) SETUP menu) to best match the capabilities of your TV. • Set the HDMI resolution to match the capabilities of your TV. This setting is also in the Video Setup section of the SETUP menu. Note: this setting can be selected only when the HDMI cable is connected to a TV. Note: • Refer to your TV owner's manual as well. • When you connect the player to your TV, be sure to turn off the power and unplug both units from the wall outlet before making any connections.
