Setting the display resolution
• Set the refresh rate of your TV or monitor to less than 60 Hz to avoid damage
to your TV or monitor.
• If no image is displayed on the TV or monitor after setting a new refresh rate,
turn off your TV or monitor and wait for a moment before restarting.
• When connecting to a TV, please select the TV’s appropriate input channel.
• Lenovo recommends connecting the computer to a monitor using the VGA or
HDMI video connector.
• It is possible to connect the computer to a TV using the VGA or HDMI video
connector, but Lenovo is unable to guarantee that this will work effectively.
After the computer is connected and is operating normally, if a blank screen or
no image is displayed on the TV, this may be a problem with the TV settings.
Please consult with your TV supplier.
