Sony KDL V32XBR2 Operating Instructions - Page 11

Getting Started Getting Started Welcome to the World of TM Thank you for purchasing this Sony LCD Digital Color Television. This manual is for model KDL-V32XBR2. The packing box contains accessories that are listed on page 45. For optimum picture performance, your new BRAVIA TV is capable of receiving high definition programming through its integrated tuner. It is also capable of receiving HDTV content from a cable or satellite box via the video inputs (HDMI and Y/PB/PR component video; see page 15). Connecting the TV To display clear, crisp pictures, your TV must be connected properly. To properly connect your TV, follow the basic connections provided in this section. Advanced connection examples are provided in the separate Quick Setup Guide accompanied with your TV. The Quick Setup Guide provides a variety of optional equipment connection diagrams. It is strongly recommended that you connect the antenna/cable input using the supplied 75-ohm coaxial cable to receive optimum picture quality. A 300-ohm twin lead cable can be easily affected by radio frequency, resulting in signal deterioration. When the antenna/cable connection is done, you must perform an Initial Setup so your TV will create a list of channels you can view (see page 18). After you can receive and view programming you should select the proper Wide Mode setting to display the picture in your preferred aspect ratio. See "Changing the Wide Screen Mode" on pages 21 and 29. Cable System and/or VHF/UHF Antenna System Connecting a cable system or an external VHF/UHF antenna to the VHF/UHF input will allow you to enjoy high definition and standard definition digital programming (if available in your area) along with the standard definition analog programming. This TV is capable of receiving unscrambled digital programming for both cable (QAM and 8VSB) and external VHF/UHF antenna (ATSC). (Continued) 11
