Connecting to a TV

Before connecting

Refer also to the instruction manual of the TV.

When you connect the DVD Player to the TV, be sure to turn off the power and unplug both units from the wall outlet before making any connections.

Connect the DVD Player to the TV directly. If you connect the DVD Player to a VCR, TV/VCR combination, or video selector, the playback picture may be distorted as DVD videos are copy protected.

Note that one audio/video connection cable and one S video connection cable are supplied. To use the audio/video cable for only the

audio connection, leave the yellow plug disconnected.

• Connect the plugs securely.

Connecting to a TV With Component Video Inputs

If the TV or monitor has component video inputs, make this connection. Connecting to these inputs allows you to enjoy higher quality picture playback compared to the connections explained in “Connecting to a TV Without Component Video Inputs” below.

Notes

Actual labels for component video inputs may vary depending on the TV manufacturer (ex. Y/CB/CR, Y/B-Y/R-Y, etc.).

In some TVs, the color levels of the playback picture may be reduced slightly or the tint may change. In such a case, adjust the TV for optimum performance.
