YOUR NEW TV

Rear Panel Jacks

Use the rear panel jacks to connect an A/V component that will be connected

continuously, such as a VCR or a DVD player.

Because there are two sets of input jacks, you can connect two different A/V

components (i.e., a VCR and a DVD, 2 VCRs, etc.)

For more information on connecting equipment, see pages 11 – 17.
