Notes
• If your DVD player can output interlace and progressive mode signals, select the interlace
output when connecting to

either 525i/60Hz or 625i/50Hz interlace signals.
• Some DVD player terminals may be labeled differently:
• If you select “DVD” on your TV screen, the signal from the T (monitor output) jacks will not
be output properly. This does not indicate a malfunction.
