How to Connect: TV + VCR + DVD Player

CABLE

1.Connect your cable and/or off-air antenna.

If you have cable and an off-air antenna, connect the cable signal to CABLE INPUT. Connect the off-air antenna to

ANTENNA INPUT.

2.Connect your DVD Player to your TV.

A.Connect the audio (white and red) cables to the INPUT 4 R and L Audio jacks on the back of the TV and to the Audio Output jacks on the DVD player.

B.Connect three video grade cables to the INPUT 4 Y/VIDEO PB PR jacks on the back of the TV and to the Y PB PR

outputs on the DVD player. If your DVD player doesn’t have Y PB PR, but has composite video and an S-Video output, use the INPUT 3 S-VIDEO jack instead of the V (Video) jack for better picture quality.

Notes: If you are using an S-Video cable or component video cables, you must also connect audio cables. The S-Video cable and component video cables only transfer video information.

If your DVD player has a component video output, we recommend you use the component video input on the TV instead of the composite video or S-Video connection.

3.Connect your VCR to your TV.

A.Connect the VCR’s audio/video outputs to INPUT 1 (R and L-Audio, and V-Video) on the TV using composite audio/ video cables.

B.Connect the VCR’s audio/video inputs to the AUDIO/VIDEO OUTPUT jacks on the TV. This enables recording of digital and analog programs (except copy protected or component video formats).
