Connecting Accessory Devices to Your TV

CONNECTING A VCR

The TV’s audio/video (AV) input jacks provide for direct picture and sound connections

between the TV and accessory devices such as VCRs, DVD players, and others that have AV out- put jacks.

This example, which uses the INPUT-AV 1 jacks, shows you one way you can connect a VCR to your TV.

Coaxial Cable Lead-in from Cable TV Company or VHF/UHF Antenna

Refer to the directions-for-use manual for your VCR for further information on connections.

To make the connections shown in this example, you will need:

•one coaxial cable (75Ω)

•one cable for a video connection (standard RCA connector)

•two cables for audio connections (standard RCA connectors) (only one cable is needed for a nonstereo VCR).

NOTE: The cables are not supplied with your TV. You should be able to buy them at most stores that sell electronics. Or you can call our Customer Care Center at 1-800-531-0039

1 Connect a cable TV or antenna signal to the ANT IN jack on the rear of the VCR.

2 Connect from the OUT jack on the rear of the VCR to the ANTENNA IN 75Ω jack on the rear of the TV.

3 Connect the VIDEO OUT jack on the rear of the VCR to the INPUT AV1 VIDEO jack on the rear of the TV.

4 Connect the audio output R(ight) and L(eft) jacks on the rear of the VCR to the INPUT-AV 1 AUDIO jacks on the rear of the TV.

NOTE: If the VCR is a mono (nonstereo) unit, connect only the left audio cable, which usually has a white connector.

5 Press the AV button on the remote con- trol as many times as necessary to select the AV1 source.

6 Turn the VCR on and press PLAY to view a videotape on the TV.

HELPFUL HINT

 

 

To simplify making connections, audio and

 

video cables often have color-code connec-

 

tors. The jacks on your TV are likewise

 

color coded to match the connectors. The

 

coding is as follows:

 

• Yellow for video (composite)

 

• Red for the right audio channel

5

• White for the left audio channel

NOTE: If your VCR is mono (non-

stereo), you will connect only one audio

 

cable. You must ensure that the TV is set

 

to MONO for the signal source to which

 

you’ve connected the VCR (INPUT-AV 1,

 

INPUT-AV2, or the side panel inputs

 

[AV3]). Otherwise, you will receive

 

sound from only one of the TV’s speak-

cCHECK IT OUT

You can display the AV1, AV2, or AV3 signal sources in the PIP window. See pages 6 and 7 in the Quick Use and Setup Guide for informa- tion on using the Picture-in-Picture (PIP) fea- ture. The VCR connection option shown in the Quick Use and Setup Guide will allow you to use your VCR as a second, dedicated tuner for viewing channels in the PIP window. Also note that the PIP SWAP button allows you to
