SETUP AND CONNECTIONS
THE BASIC CONNECTION (PIP NOT AVAILABLE)
The basic connection below (TV and VCR) is the most common connection and is therefore used to illustrate a single component connection with your TV. For better sound and picture quality and multiple component connection information refer to the next section, Advanced Connections.
Cables
You will use the following type of cable to make your connection:
Coaxial Cables: In this connection, two Coaxial
Cables are used: one connects from an antenna, cable, or cable box to the VCR, and one connects from the VCR to the TV. These cables carry both audio and video signals.

Once you have completed this connection you may skip to Step 3.
This Connection Will Not Allow You to Use
Your TV is equipped with a single tuner, which means you must connect with a second video source using Audio/Video cables to view Picture in Picture (PIP). This basic connection will not enable you to use your PIP, but will get your TV up and running quickly.
Refer to Advanced Connections for connecting Audio/Video cables to your VCR or other video component.
How to View the VCR
To watch the VCR in this connection tune TV to Channel 3 or 4.
Later, in the Interactive Setup section you will program the TV to automatically tune to Channel 3 or 4 when you turn on the VCR.
