Connections and Preparations
Step 3: Connecting the Projector
When making connections, be sure to do the following:
• Turn off all equipment before making any connections.
• Use the proper cables for each connection.
• Insert the cable plugs properly; poor connection at the plugs may cause a malfunction or
poor picture quality. When pulling out a cable, be sure to pull it out from the plug, not
the cable itself.
• Refer to the operating instructions of the connected equipment.
To connect to equipment with HDMI output connectors
You can enjoy better picture quality by connecting a DVD player/recorder, Blu-ray Disc
player/recorder, or PS3

equipped with HDMI output to the HDMI input of the projector.
