■ About built-in wireless LAN/Bluetooth
● 
 To use the built-in wireless LAN, using an access 
point is recommended.
●   To use the built-in wireless LAN in the access point 
mode, up to 7 devices are connectable. But the 
transfer rate will vary according to communication 
environment or connected equipments.
●   Do not use the built-in wireless LAN to connect to any 
wireless network (SSID *
1) for which you do not have 
usage rights. Such networks may be listed as a result 
of searches. However, using them may be regarded 
as illegal access.
●   Check that the Access point supports WPS *
2.
 (If it does not support WPS, the encryption key of the 
Access point is required when configuring settings.)
●   Follow the instructions on the Access point setup 
screen and configure the appropriate security 
settings.
 For more details on setting of 

Access point, please 
refer to operating manual for the Access point.
●   We recommend using 11n (5 GHz) for the wireless 
system between the built-in wireless LAN and 

Access 
point.
 Communication is also possible with 11a, 11b, and 
11g, but the communication speed may be slower.
●   If the wireless system of the Access point is changed, 
devices that could connect by wireless LAN may no 
longer be able to connect.
●   Data transmitted and received over radio waves may 
be intercepted and monitored.
●   Keep the TV away from the following devices as 
much as possible:
 Wireless LAN, microwaves, and other devices that 
use 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz signals. Otherwise, the 

TV 
failures such as malfunction may occur due to the 
radio wave interference.
●   When noises occur due to the static electricity, etc., 
the 

TV might stop operating for the protection of the 
devices. In this case, turn the TV Off with power On / 
Off switch, then turn it On again.
 * 1     SSID is a name for identifying a particular wireless 
network for transmission.
 * 2     WPS: Wi-Fi Protected Setup
 
  To use COMPOSITE terminals  (for SD picture)
 (Camcorder / Game system / DVD recorder / etc.)
 
  VIDEO cable
 
   AV Equipment (e.g. Camcorder)
 Note
●   In some cases, it is not possible to connect 
depending on the type of cable or equipment.
●   The Green terminal is shared for both the 
COMPONENT

 and COMPOSITE (VIDEO IN) 
connection. When using COMPOSITE (VIDEO IN) 
connection, the Yellow connector (VIDEO) should be 
inserted into Green connection.
 Network connection
●   To enable the network service functions, you need to 
connect the 
TV to a broadband network environment. 
If you do not have any broadband network services, 
please consult your retailer for assistance.
●    Prepare the Internet environment for wired connection 
or wireless connection.
