User's Manual

When the DVD input is selected from the front panel or the remote control, the DVD’s audio will play in your system and the video is sent to the TV.

As with all the video connections that follow, you must make sure that your TV monitor is set to look at its correct video input or you will not see the picture.

If your TV and other video compo- nents have S-Video connections, use them, as they provide better picture quality than composite video.
