Connecting up

DVD/VCR TO TV CONNECTION

After you have connected the antenna to the DVD/VCR, you must connect the DVD/VCR to the TV.

Below are 3 common methods of connecting your DVD/VCR to a TV. Find the type of TV you are using and follow the connection diagram.

This DVD/VCR has a single 75 output for connection to a TV. If your TV has separate UHF and VHF antenna inputs (numbers 2 and 3 below), use a splitter to connect the DVD/VCR to the TV for UHF and VHF reception.

Note

¥ If a UHF or VHF antenna is used, set the TV/CATV menu option to the ÒTVÓ mode.

Note

¥If both UHF and VHF antennas have 300 twin lead (flat) wires, use a combiner having two 300 inputs and one 75 output.

Note

¥A clear picture will not be obtained by the DVD/VCR unless the antenna signal is good. Connect the antenna to the DVD/VCR properly.

¥For better quality recording, an indoor antenna or a telescopic antenna is not recommended. The use of an outdoor type antenna is required.

¥If you are not sure about the connection, please refer to qualified service personnel.
