HOOKING UP THE TV

AV1 & AV2 INPUTS

The TV’s audio/video input jacks are for direct picture and sound connections between the TV and a VCR (or similar

device) that has audio/video output jacks. Both the AV1 and AV2 Input Jack connections are shown on this page, but either one can be connected alone. Follow the easy steps below to connect your accessory device to the AV1 and AV2 in Jacks located on the back of the TV.

1	Connect the VIDEO (yellow) cable to the VIDEO AV1 in
	(or AV2 in) jack on the back of the TV.
	Connect the AUDIO (red and white) cables to the
	AUDIO (left and right) AV1 in (or AV2 in) jacks on the
2 rear of the TV.
	Connect the VIDEO (yellow) cable to the VIDEO OUT
	jack on the back of the VCR (either one or two) or acces-
3 sory device being used.
4	Connect the AUDIO (red and white) cables to the
	AUDIO (left and right) OUT jacks on the rear of the VCR
	(either one or two) or accessory device being used.

5 Turn the VCR (either one or two) or accessory device and the TV ON.

6 Press the CH + or – buttons on the remote control to select the AV1 channel for accessory device number one, or the AV2 channel for accessory device number two. AV1 or AV2 will appear in the upper left corner on the TV screen depending on the channel chosen.

7 With either of the VCRs (or accessory devices) ON and a prerecorded tape (CD, DVD, etc.) inserted, press the PLAY button to view the tape on the television.

(EQUIPPED WITH VIDEO AND

Component Video inputs provide for the highest possible color and picture resolution in the playback of digital signal source material, such as with DVD players. The color difference signals (Pb, Pr) and the luminance (Y) signal are connected and received

separately, which allows for improved color bandwidth informa- tion (not possible when using composite video or S-Video connec- tions).

Connect the Component (Y, Pb, Pr) Video OUT jacks

1 from the DVD player (or similar device) to the (Y, Pb, Pr) in(put) jacks on the TV. When using the Component Video Inputs, it is best not to connect a signal to the AV1 in Video Jack.

2 Connect the red and white AUDIO CABLES to the Audio (left and right) output jacks on the rear of the acces- sory device to the Audio (L and R) AV1 in Input Jacks on the TV.

3 Turn the TV and the DVD (or digital accessory device) ON.

4 Press the CH +, – buttons to scroll the available channels until CVI appears in the upper left corner of the TV screen.

The description for the component video connectors may differ depending on the DVD player or accessory digital source equip- ment used (for example, Y, Pb, Pr; Y, B-Y, R-Y; Y, Cr, Cb). Although abbreviations and terms may vary, the letters b and r stand for the blue and red color component signal connectors, and Y indicates the luminance signal. Refer to your DVD or digital accessory owner’s manual for definitions and connection details.
