SETUP AND CONNECTIONS

SAMPLE CONNECTIONS

The following are sample connection scenarios you may encounter when connecting components to your TV.

Cables

You will use the following types of cables to make your connection:

Coaxial Cables: Carries the signal from the antenna or cable directly to the television or through a cable box, as needed by your cable system.

Audio/Video Cables: Carries audio and video from a component to the TV.

TV and Stereo or Mono VCR

Compared to the Basic Connection, using Audio/Video cables will enhance the sound and picture quality from a component.

Cautions:

Position cables to avoid audio hum or interference

Insert all cables firmly into jacks.

Place the audio/video cables to the sides of the TV’s back panel instead of straight down the middle.

Try not to coil any twin-lead cables and keep them away from the audio/video cables.

Protect your components from overheating

Do not block ventilation holes in any of the components. Arrange the components so that air can circulate freely.

Do not stack components.

Allow adequate ventilation when placing your components in a stand.

Place an amplifier on the top shelf of the stand so heated air rising from it will not flow around other components.

How to View Your VCR

To watch the VCR in this connection, press INPUT to select the component connected to the AUDIO/VIDEO inputs.

Note: if you connect a component to the front jacks, the back jacks will be turned off.

Most Audio/Video cables are combined into one cable with three heads on each end.
