Cables Needed to Connect Components to Your TV

The pictures below show the cables needed for the connections represented in this book.

Notes: Audio/Video cables (A/V cables for short) are usually sold as a bundled set, but the connection pictures in this book show each cable separately for better visibility. You must use A/V cables to connect a VCR to your TV if you want PIP (Picture-In-Picture) to work.

Please locate the G-LINK cable (provided) when you’re getting ready to set up your TV. You need to connect this cable to your TV, and to your VCR and/or cable box in order for all of the features of the program guide to work properly.
