• For the best picture and audio quality, connect digital devices to the TV using HDMI cables.
• An HDMI cable supports digital video and audio signals, and does not require an audio cable.
− To connect the TV to a digital device that does not support HDMI output, use an HDMI to DVI
cable and audio cables.
• If you connect an external device to the TV that uses an older version of HDMI, the video and audio
may not work. If this occurs, ask the manufacturer of the device about the HDMI version and, if it is
out of date, request an upgrade.
• Be sure to purchase a certified HDMI cable. Otherwise, the picture may not display or a connection
error may occur.
• We recommend using a basic high-speed HDMI cable or an HDMI cable that is Ethernet
compatible. Note that this product does not support the Ethernet function via HDMI.
• This product supports the 3D and ARC (Audio Return Channel) functions via an HDMI cable. Note
that the ARC function is supported by the HDMI IN 2 (ARC) port only.
− If 3D Auto View is set to On, some functions such as SMART HUB may be disabled. In this
case, set 3D Auto View or 3D Mode to Off.
• The ARC function allows digital audio to output via the HDMI IN 2 (ARC) port on the TV. It can be
enabled only when the TV is connected with an audio receiver that supports the ARC function.
