AUDIO/VIDEO CONNECTIONS

Before you move or change components on your entertainment system, review the following:

•For basic cable connections, use 75-ohm coaxial cables equipped with F-type connectors. A 6-foot coaxial cable is provided to connect the DCT* to your cable wall outlet. A 6-foot component video cable and left/right audio cables are also provided to connect the DCT* to your TV.

•If your equipment supports it, S-video connections may be used in place of the standard RCA video connections. In most cases, S-video offers a higher level of standard definition video quality than RCA video

•If your equipment supports it, the optical (OPTICAL SPDIF) or coaxial digital (SPDIF) audio outputs may be used in place of the stereo audio outputs (AUDIO R and L). In most cases these outputs offer a higher level of audio quality, including support for 5.1 Surround Sound.

•If you are connecting a coaxial cable from the TO TV/VCR connector on the DCT* to the coaxial CABLE/ANTENNA IN connector on the TV, you must tune your TV to channel 3 or 4 to view the DCT* output. Connecting the DCT* in this manner will remove its high definition video capability.

•Disconnect power from the DCT* before connecting or changing cable connections.

The DCT* offers Component and DVI video outputs. These outputs provide a high level of video quality. If your High Definition television (HDTV) or home theater receiver supports either of these connections, use one or the other instead of the RCA type or S-Video connections. For more information on connecting High Definition video, see “Connecting your DCT* to an HDTV – Video Only” on page 16.

CAUTION!

Do not place anything on top of the DCT*, especially other home

entertainment components. Be sure to provide adequate ventilation to prevent overheating.
