Connecting the Device
High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) technology is an uncompressed digital connection
that carries both video and audio data by way of an integrated mini-plug cable. Since HDMI
technology is based on Digital Visual Interface (DVI), the jack on the back of your TV/DVD is
also compatible with devices that have a DVI output jack.

in.

HDMI
for the input
list. To go back to viewing TV channels, press the INPUT SELECT button and select

jack on the back of the TV/DVD and the other end to the R and L jacks on the back
of the device.
