Making Connections

To accommodate a wide range of home entertainment systems, this player features numerous connection types for both audio and video. Please refer to the instructions on this and the following pages to determine the best possible type of connections for your system.

Before Connecting

Refer to the instruction manuals supplied with any and all components that you plan to connect the DVD Changer to.

Be sure to turn off the power of all components to be connected and unplug them from the wall outlet before making any connections.

Connect the DVD Changer to the TV or AV component directly. If you connect the DVD Changer to a VCR, TV/VCR combination, or video selector, the playback picture may be distorted as DVD Video images are copy protected.

Please note that video connections to a TV or monitor are necessary because some discs require on-screen menu interaction before they can be played.

Connect the plugs securely.
