Connecting to Audio/Video equipment

Be sure to always refer to the instructions that came with the component that you are connecting.

Do not plug in the power cord until all connections have been properly made.

For input jacks, red connectors (marked R) are used for the right channel, white connectors (marked L) are used for the left channel, and yellow connectors (marked V) are used for video connection.

Insert all plugs and connectors securely. Improper connections can result in noise, poor performance, or damage to the equipment.

Improper connection

Inserted completely

Do not bind audio/video connection cables with power cords and speaker cables. Doing so may adversely affect the picture and sound quality.

The optical digital jacks are all of the shutter-type construction. Connect an optical cable by first making sure the cable is oriented correctly and then inserting it into the jack pushing the shutter lid inwards.
