Installing the Stand

CAUTION

• Be sure to disconnect the A/C power cord before removing a base stand or installing wall mount brackets.
• The screen display is very fragile, and must be protected at all times when installing the base stand. Be sure that no hard or sharp object, or anything that could scratch or damage the screen display, comes into contact with it. DO NOT exert pressure on the front of the TV at any time because the screen could crack.

Follow the illustrations and textual instructions below to complete the installation steps:

1. Carefully place your TV facedown on a soft, flat surface to prevent damage to the TV or scratching to the screen.

Making Connections

ANT

HDMI / AV

Connect a HDMI / AV cable from an external AV equipment. No sound connection is needed for HDMI to HDMI connection. If the signal resolution does not match the specification table, you need to change the setting of device according to the table. Please consult your device user manual for instruction.

HEADPHONE

ATTENTION Excessive sound pressure from earphones and headphones can cause hearing loss.

NOTE Please make sure that the headphone you plug in is without microphone function, or it may not be supported.

DIGITAL AUDIO OUT

Connect to an external digital audio system.

Before connecting a digital audio system to the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack, you should decrease the volume of both the TV and the system to avoid that the volume suddenly becomes bigger.

ARC

Connect an HDMI cable from an external digital audio system.

ARC enables the TV to directly output the digital sound through an HDMI cable. Please note that it works only when the TV is connected to the audio receiver that supports the ARC (Audio Return Channel) function.

When this port is used as the ARC function, it can't be used as signal input at the same time.

USB

Connect the USB1.1 and USB2.0 devices such as hard drives, USB sticks and digital cameras for browsing photos, listening music and watching movies.

NOTE When connecting a hard disk or a USB hub, always connect the mains adapter of the connected device to the power supply. If a USB 1.1 or USB2.0 device requires more than 500mA or 5V, the USB device may not be supported. Max supported current for USB 3.0 device is 1A (only for some models). Exceeding the max supported current may result in damage or data loss.

LAN (Wired setup)

Connect your TV to your network by connecting the LAN port on the back of your TV to an external modem or router using a LAN (Ethernet/Cat 5) cable. See the illustration below.

• We recommend you to use a modem or router that supports Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). Modems and routers that support DHCP automatically provide the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS, so you don’t have to enter them manually. Most home networks already have DHCP.

Wireless setup

Connect your TV to your wireless network, you need a wireless router or modem. See the illustration below.

• The TV’s built-in Wireless LAN Adapter supports the IEEE 802.11 ac/a/b/g/n communication protocols.

NOTES

• You must use the built-in Wireless LAN Adapter to use a wireless network because the set doesn’t support external USB network adapter.
• If the wireless router supports DHCP, your TV can connect more easily to the wireless network.
• If you apply a security system which is not listed below, it will not work with the TV.
• Security system : WPA, WEP, WPA2.
• In order to guarantee smooth network, the distance between router and TV should be less than 10 meters.
