1Connect the antenna or Cable TV signal to the ANT-IN (Antenna In) jack of your

DVD/VCR.

2Connect the supplied red and white audio cables to the red and white DVD/VCR AUDIO

OUT jacks on the DVD/VCR and to the red and white AUDIO IN jacks on the TV.Match the

cable colors to the jack colors.

3Connect an S-Video cable (not supplied) to the S-VIDEO OUT jack on the DVD/VCR and

to the S-VIDEO IN jack on the TV.

The S-Video connection only supplies video (picture) for the DVD Player of the DVD/VCR.Therefore,in order to

use the VCR features or view TV channels at the DVD/VCR,you still need to either connect the RF coaxial cable

between the ANT-OUT jack of the DVD/VCR and the TV’s Antenna In jack,or connect the yellow video cable.To

connect the supplied RF coaxial cable,see step 2 on page eight.To connect the supplied yellow video cable, see

step 3 on page 11.

4Connect the power cords of the DVD/VCR and the TV to a power outlet.Turn on the TV

and set it to the S-Video In channel for DVD Player features.

If you are using the RF coaxial cable for VCR playback,choose channel 3 or 4 at the TV.If you are using

the yellow video cable for VCR playback,choose the Video In channel at your TV.To find the correct

Video In channel,go to your lowest TV channel and change channels downward until you see VCR or

DVD playback on the TV screen,or try channel 3 or 4 at the TV.

To help you find the right S-Video In channel, turn on the DVD/VCR.Press DVD to put the DVD/VCR in

DVD mode.With no Disc in the Player,a large DVD Video logo will appear on the TV screen when you get

the TV on the S-Video In channel.

Make sure PROGRESSIVE is OFF and P.SCAN does not appear on the DVD/VCR display panel.Disable

Progressive Scan either in the DISPLAYmenu or by pressing and holding PLAY B(DVD) on the

front of the DVD/VCR for more than five seconds so P.SCAN does not appear on the display panel.
