•Use the A/V connecting cable (supplied) to connect

your camcorder to other devices. Before connecting, make sure the [DISPLAY] setting in the (STANDARD SET) menu is set to [LCD PANEL]

(the default setting) (p. 87).

•Connect the A/V connecting cable to the output jack of a device you are dubbing a picture from, or to the input jack of another device for dubbing a picture from your camcorder.

•When you are connecting your camcorder to a monaural device, connect the yellow plug of the A/ V connecting cable to the video jack, and the red (right channel) or the white (left channel) plug to the audio jack on the VCR or the TV.
