Press the TV/AV button on the TV s remote control until AV2 appears in the upper right corner of the TV screen. When you play material on the VCR, DVD player, etc. that is connected to the AUDIO and VIDEO IN2 jacks on the rear of the TV, it will appear on the TV on the AV2 channel.

VIDEO

There are AUDIO and VIDEO IN1 jacks at the lower-right corner of the rear of the TV set. To view material playing on equip- ment connected here, press the TV/AV so AV1 is shown on the TV.

There is also an S-VIDEO IN1 jack in this area. Use S-Video connection if your DVD player, camcorder, etc. has an S-Video Out jack. S-Video provides a clearer picture than the standard CVBS video (the yellow jack). Choose the AV1 channel to view material

Helpful Hints

Audio and video cables are not supplied with the TV but are available from Magnavox or electronics retailers. Audio cables are usually red and white. Video cables (CVBS) are usually yellow.

You can connect the antenna or Cable TV signal to either the ANTENNA IN jack on your VCR or to the 75 OHM ANT- ENNA INPUT jack on the TV. If you connect it to the VCR, choose TV channels at the VCR. Connect it to the VCR if you want to record TV pro- gramming through VCR. Your VCR may not have Audio and Video Out jacks, but only An RF or ANTENNA OUT jack. Use a coaxial cable to connect the VCRs ANTENNA OUT jack to the TVs 75 OHM ANTENNA INPUT jack.

There are Component Video In jacks on the rear of the TV. These are labeled DVD INPUT Y, Cb and Cr and are red, blue and green. Use these to connect a DVD player that has Component Video Out jacks. This will provide the best picture quality. Use Component Video cables, which are not supplied with the TV.

If you connect the DVD player to the DVD jacks, set the TV to YUV channel to watch DVDs. Press TV/AV button on the remote so YUV appears on the TV screen.

Use either DVD or VIDEO In2 jacks, but do not use both for the same piece of equipment. You only need one video connection per each accessory (DVD player, etc.).

playing on equipment connected to the S- VIDEO IN1 jack.

Use either S-VIDEO IN1 jack or VIDEO IN1 jacks. Do not use both at the same time for the same piece of equipment.

This would interfere with the picture display. If both are used, S-VIDEO IN1 has priority over the yellow VIDEO IN1 jack.
