You will need:

•coaxial cables

•standard A/V cables

–For better picture performance, if your VCR has S-video, use an S-video cable (plus the audio cables) instead of the standard video cable.

–For better picture performance, if your camcorder has S-video, connect an S-video cable (plus the audio cables) to VIDEO 1 on the TV back instead of the VIDEO 2 on the TV right side panel.

–If you have a mono VCR, connect L/MONO on the TV to your VCR’s audio out terminal using the white audio cable only.

•S-video cable (if your VCR or camcorder has S-video)

–Do not connect both types of video cable to VIDEO 1 at the same time or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

•standard audio cables (if your VCR or camcorder has S-video)

Note: When you use a Cable box, you may not be able to use the remote control to program or access certain features on the TV.
