CONNECTING TO A TV THAT HAS AN S-VIDEO INPUT JACK OR

COMPONENT VIDEO IN JACKS

FOR TVs WITH S-VIDEO INPUT JACK

Use an S-Video cable (commercially available) in place of the yellow video cable to enjoy higher quality pictures. The S-Video connection only supplies video (picture) in the DVD mode of the DVD/VCR COMBINATION UNIT. Therefore, in order to use the VCR features or view TV channels on the DVD/VCR COMBINATION UNIT, you still need to either connect the RF cable between the ANT-OUT jack of the DVD/VCR COMBINATION UNIT and the TV’s Antenna In jack, or connect the yellow video cable as described earlier (Fig.1). To connect the supplied RF cable, see page 13.

FOR TVs WITH COMPONENT VIDEO IN JACKS

Use a component video cable (commercially available) in place of the yellow DVD/VCR video cable and S-VIDEO jack to enjoy higher quality pictures.

Therefore, in order to use the VCR features or view TV channels at the DVD/VCR COMBINATION UNIT, you still need to either connect the RF coaxial cable between the ANT-OUT jack of the DVD/VCR COMBINATION UNIT and the TV’s Antenna In jack, or connect the yellow VCR video cable as described earlier (Fig. 1). To connect the supplied RF cable, see page 13.

•Optical cable may be damaged when bent at acute angles. Ensure cables are coiled in loops with a diam- eter of 6inches (15cm) or more when storing them.

•Use a cable which is 9.8ft (3m) or shorter.

•Insert cable plugs firmly into the jacks when making connections.

•If a plug has minor scratches or is dirty, clean it with a soft cloth before inserting it into a jack.

•Replace the protective cap on the OPTICAL jack when it is not in use.
