Note
• The HDMI indicator on the player’s front panel lights when video
signals are being output from the HDMI OUT terminal.
(Depending on the connected device, in some cases it may only
light when the player is selected as the device’s input.)
• 1080p video signals may not be output, depending on the HDMI
cable being used.
Caution
• Hold the plug when connecting and disconnecting the cable.
• Placing a load on the plug could result in faulty contact and no
