Connecting to VIDEO/AUX INPUT jacks

Use the VIDEO or AUX input jacks for connection in the following cases:

–To connect another audio or video device.

Lower the volume level on the PHC-5 before you change an input source using the INPUT SELECTOR, since the input level of a device such as CD player connected to the VIDEO or AUX input jacks may be different from the input level of the TV and selecting a different input source may produce a loud sound.

–To connect your VCR directly to the PHC-5, since your TV does not have audio output jacks.

–To connect your VCR directly to the PHC-5, since your TV has “variable” audio output jacks. (Refer to the “CAUTION” on page 7.)

–To connect your VCR directly to the PHC-5, since your TV outputs audio signals during programmed recording on the VCR even if the power to the TV is turned off. (Refer to the “CAUTION” on page 7.)

•Use the cable included in the device for connection. Connect the stereo audio connection cable as follows:

To the audio output L ch. jack of the device...white	white...PHC-5’s AUX or VIDEO input L ch. jack
To the audio output R ch. jack of the device...red	red...PHC-5’s AUX or VIDEO input R ch. jack
