Note:

For the highest possible picture quality from a DVD player or satellite receiver without component video or HDMI, use an S-video cable. (If your DVD player has component video, see page 12. If your DVD player or satellite receiver has HDMI or DVI, see page 15.)

Do not connect both an S-video cable and a standard video cable between the TV and DVD player/satellite receiver at the same time or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

Do not connect the DVD player/satellite receiver and VCR to the same set of Video inputs on the TV. (See the illustrations, which show the DVD player/satellite receiver connected to Video-1 on the TV, and the VCR connected to Video-2 on the TV.)

The unauthorized recording, use, distribution, or revision of television programs, videotapes, DVDs, and other materials is prohibited under the Copyright Laws of the United States and other countries, and may subject you to civil and criminal liability.
