• When your TV is monaural (when your TV has only one audio input jack), connect the yellow plug of the
A/V connecting cable to the video input jack and connect the white (left channel) or the red (right
channel) plug to the audio input jack of your TV or VCR. When you want to play the sound in monaural
mode, use a connecting cable for that purpose.
