Playback on TV or VCR Using AUDIO/VIDEO IN Jacks

To connect your camcorder to a TV or VCR using AUDIO/VIDEO IN jacks, use the audio/video cable that was packed with the camcorder. If your TV is already connected to a VCR, you can attach the camcorder to the VCR and watch what the camcorder is recording or playing on the TV.

Note: If your VCR only has one AUDIO IN jack, you may need a Y-adapter.

2Attach the yellow video plug on the audio/video cable to the VIDEO IN jack on the TV or VCR.

3Optional: If your TV has an S-VIDEO IN connector, connect the S-Connector on the output cable.

4Attach the plug on the end of the audio/video cable to the audio/video connector located behind the small cover on the camcorder. Match the tabs on the plug with the notches on the camcorder connector. Do not force the plug.
