Adjusting the 
Convergence

The projection tube image appears on the screen in three colors (red, 
green and blue). If the three colors do not project properly, the color is 
poor and the picture blurs. Before you use your TV, be sure to run the 
Flash Focus feature. Flash Focus adjusts the color projection settings 
automatically.

1

Tune to a TV or cable TV program.

2

Press the 

FLASH FOCUS

 button on the front panel of the TV.

The cross pattern appears and Flash Focus begins to work.

The adjustment is completed when the TV picture returns.

To Perform Additional Fine Manual Adjustments 

Use the manual Convergence feature, as described in the 
Operating Instructions.

Notes on Flash Focus

You cannot perform any other functions until Flash Focus has 
completed its cycle. If you perform any other operation while 
Flash Focus is in progress, the Flash Focus operation is canceled.

Allow the TV to warm up for about 30 minutes before you adjust the 
convergence with Flash Focus.

Connecting 
Your Projection TV

Review the following chart to determine which diagram to use to 
connect the components in your system:

See the “Cables Required” chart that appears with the diagram to 
determine which cables you’ll need. You may need to purchase 
extra accessories, such as cables and splitters, depending on the 
components you plan to connect.

Turn off and unplug all components before making connections.

If you have a component such as a DVD player that includes a 
DVI video output, you can connect it to the TV’s HDMI input 
using a DVI-to-HDMI cable (and analog audio cables).

If you are connecting a digital cable box, you’ll need a special bi-
directional splitter that’s compatible with your cable box. Contact 
your cable provider for details.

Making Video Connections

Your TV includes several types of video inputs. Use the inputs that 
are available on your components that provide the best video 
performance, as described below. 

Additional Connections

For best audio performance, connect your digital audio components 
using either digital optical or digital coaxial audio connections.

Depending on which components are in your system, you may need 
to complete additional connections. For example, if you have a 
satellite receiver, you’ll need to connect the satellite antenna. If you 
have an A/V receiver, you’ll need to connect speakers.

If you are using a CableCARD or the digital audio (optical) output connector, 
see the Operating Instructions for details.

The connection diagrams shown on the reverse side are recommendations 
only; other possible solutions may exist. Connections that include an A/V 
receiver can often be very complex, so check your A/V receiver’s instruction 
manual for additional details.
