You can connect a USB hard disk drive or USB 
memory stick to your TV by using the USB inputs 
of the TV. This feature allows you to play fi les stored 
in a USB drive or record programmes.

recording feature. Otherwise, recording feature will 
not be available.

formatting. NTFS format is not supported. If you 
connect a USB disk with NTFS format, the TV will ask 
you to format the content. See the section, “Format

the disk drive and the TV should have a USB logo 
and should be as short as possible.
