Connecting the DV-SP405—Continued

Connecting Your TV

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

Using S-Video (not European model)

If your TV (or other equipment) has an S-Video input, you can use this instead of the standard (composite) out- put for a better quality picture.

•Use an S-Video cable (not supplied) to connect the S VIDEO OUTPUT to an S-Video input on your TV (or monitor or AV receiver).

Line up the small triangle above the jack with the same mark on the plug before plugging in.
