CONNECTING AN AUDIO DEVICE - AUDIO CABLE TYPES
HDMI CABLE
HDMI technology transmits crystal-clear digital 
multi-channel surround audio through a single 
HDMI cable. Audio Return Channel-enabled 
(ARC) TVs allow audio to be sent over an already 
connected HDMI cable, eliminating the need 
for a separate audio cable. See 
Connecting an 
Audio Device - ARC on page 17
.
OPTICAL/SPDIF CABLE
Optical/SPDIF cables transmit audio signals as 
pulses of light through a cable made of plastic 
fibers. Audio signals are digitally transmitted 
between devices.
RCA CABLE
AV cables (or Composite cables) are the 
traditional way of connecting your devices to 
your audio device. Audio signals are sent over 
the red and white connectors.

With an HDMI ARC setup, the 
audio connection between 
your TV and home audio 
receiver can be removed. 
The HDMI cable will transmit 
audio signals to and from 
your TV with an all-digital 
audio/video connection.
Without an HDMI ARC setup, 
your TV will transmit audio 
signals from the built-in 
tuner to your home audio 
receiver through a separate 
audio connection.

CHANGING THE INPUT SOURCE
External devices such as DVD players, Blu-ray Players, and video 
game consoles can be connected to your TV.  To use one of 
these devices with your TV, you must first change the input 
source in the on-screen menu.
To change the input device:
1 . Press the INPUT button on 
the remote. The input menu is 
displayed.
2 .  Use the Up/Down  Arrow 
buttons or the INPUT button 
on the remote to highlight the 
input you wish to view and 
press  OK. The selected input is 
displayed.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
You can change the input names that appear on the 
Input menu to make your devices easy to recognize. 
See 
Renaming Devices on the Input Menu on page 
34 for more information.
Note: Inputs may vary by TV.
CHANGING THE  SCREEN ASPECT RATIO
The TV can display images in five different modes: Normal, Stretch, 
Panoramic, Wide, and Zoom. Each mode displays the picture 
differently.
To change the screen aspect ratio:
1 . Press the WIDE  button on the 
remote.
2 .  Use the Arrow buttons to 
highlight the aspect ratio you 
wish to view and press OK.
• Normal  preserves the content’s 
original aspect ratio. Since the 
4:3 aspect ratio is not large 
enough to fill the TV’s screen, 
black bars are added to the left 
and right of the display image.
•  Stretch expands the display image to fill the screen. 
Images may appear wider than intended. If you are 
watching widescreen (1.85:1 or 2.35:1) content, black 
bars will still appear on the top and bottom of the display 
image.  This option is only available when the TV is 
displaying a 720p/1080i source.
•  Panoramic  expands the display image to fill the screen. 
Images may appear wider than intended. If you are 
watching widescreen (1.85:1 or 2.35:1) content, black 
bars will still appear on the top and bottom of the display 
image.  This option is only available when the TV is 
displaying a 480i/480p source.
•  Wide  stretches a 4:3 aspect ratio picture to the edges 
of the screen. Since the picture is being stretched, the 
display image may appear distorted. If the program 
is already formatted for widescreen viewing (1.85:1 or 
2.35:1), then black bars will appear on the top and 
bottom of the display image.
•  Zoom  expands images with black bars to fit the screen.
