Connecting Your DVD Player

Using HDMI (Best)

DVD players that have a HDMI digital interface should be connected using HDMI for optimal results. To
maintain image quality, use a VIZIO certified HDMI cable. This cable is available in 6, 15, and 30 foot
lengths. Visit www.VIZIO.com or call 877-MYVIZIO (877-698-4946) for details.

1. Turn off your HDTV and DVD player.
2. Connect a HDMI cable to the HDMI output of your DVD player and the other end to the HDMI 1, 2,

3, or HDMI SIDE jack on your HDTV.

3. Turn on the power to your HDTV and your DVD player.
4. Select HDMI-1, HDMI-2, HDMI-3, or HDMI SIDE using the INPUT button on the remote control or

side of the TV.

Note:

• The HDMI input on your HDTV supports High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP).

HDCP encrypts the transmission between the video source and the digital display for added
security and protection.

• Refer to your DVD player user manual for more information about the video output requirements.
