Connect the unit to a TV equipped with stereo audio input and video input jacks using the supplied audio/video cables.

If your TV has a monaural audio input instead of stereo, you need to use an optional audio cable which converts stereo audio output to monaural.

If your TV has an S-video input, you should connect it with the S-VIDEO output of the unit using the supplied S- video cable in addition to the (standard) video connection to get better picture quality.

The unit is compatible with the PAL and NTSC color systems. Set the PAL/NTSC switch on the rear panel to match the color system of your TV. Make sure that the color system of the DVD/Video CD/SVCD disc labeled on the package matches your TV.

NOTE

Connect VIDEO OUT of the unit directly to the video input of your TV. Connecting VIDEO OUT of the unit to a TV via a VCR may cause a monitor problem when playing back a copy-protected disc.
