the TV stand.
When Mounting on a Wall
Be sure to use the following optional wall-mount brackets to hang the TV on 
the wall.
KLV-S19A10: SU-WL11
KLV-S23A10/KLV-S26A10/KLV-S32A10: SU-WL31
See the Instruction Guide supplied with the wall-mount bracket on how to 
mount the TV on the wall.
Be sure to take measures to prevent the TV from toppling over and 
causing injury.
The supplied wood screw may not be used depending on the type of TV 
stand. In this case, or when the securing strength is not enough, 
prepare commercial screws to fit to the TV stand. Use commercial

Connecting the TV
Connecting the TV
To display clear crisp pictures, first you must connect your TV correctly and 
also need to choose the correct display format (see “Changing the wide 
screen mode” on page 38). It is strongly recommended to connect the 
antenna using the supplied 75-ohm coaxial cable to receive optimum picture 
quality signal. A 300-ohm twin lead cable can be easily affected by radio 
noise and the like, resulting in signal deterioration. If you use a 300-ohm 
twin lead cable, keep it as far away as possible from the TV.
Making Video and 
Audio ConnectionsYour TV includes several types of video inputs. When connecting your TV, 
use the inputs that are available on your devices that provide the best video 
performance, as described below.

Satellite Receiver 
and Cable/AntennaThis scenario shows a SAT Box connected through the video inputs and the 
Cable/Antenna connected through the VHF/UHF input. Satellite signals are 
selected by the SAT Box through the video inputs while TV signal is 
selected by the TV tuner.
To connect a satellite receiver
1Connect the satellite antenna cable to the satellite receiver’s satellite 
input jack.
2Use an A/V and S VIDEO cables to connect the satellite receiver’s 
AUDIO and S VIDEO output jacks to the TV’s AUDIO and S VIDEO 
input jacks (VIDEO 1 or 3).
3Connect the supplied 75-ohm coaxial cable from the antenna to the 
TV’s VHF/UHF input jack.
4Run the Initial Setup program, as described in “Setting Up the Channel 
List” on page 30.
Notes on Using This Connection
If your satellite receiver is not equipped with S VIDEO, use a 
VIDEO cable (yellow) instead of the S VIDEO cable.
