Make AV connection if your TV has a 21-pin AV input connector (SCART) in order to reduce the possibility of interference. With AV connection, you can enjoy stereo playback of video tapes if you are using a stereo TV.

NOTES:

●The AV1 (L-1) IN/OUT connector accepts and delivers either a composite signal (regular video signal) or a Y/C signal (a signal in which the luminance and chrominance signals are separated). If your TV’s 21-pin AV input connector (SCART) is compatible with the Y/C signal, set

“L-1 OUTPUT” to “S-VIDEO” after the connection and the initial settings are completed ( pg. 42). You can obtain high-quality S-VHS pictures. (For connection, be sure to use a 21-pin SCART cable that is compatible with the Y/C signal.)

●Set your TV to the VIDEO (or AV), Y/C, or RGB mode according to the type of your TV’s SCART connector.

●For switching the TV’s mode, refer to the instruction manual of your television.

●To obtain high-quality S-VHS pictures, you can also use the S-VIDEO connection described on page 11.
