CONNECTIONS
Connecting a TV
You must connect a TV to the DVD system in order to use
the DVD player.
IMPORTANT!
There are various ways to connect the system
to a TV (as shown in the illustration below). You
only need to make one of the best connections,
depending on the capabilities of your TV system.
The players S-VIDEO jack is for use with the
built-in 3-disc DVD player only. If you plan to use a
VCR, satellite, or other equipment with this DVD
system, you must use audio/visual cables to
connect your TV to MONTOR OUT (and view
DVDs through MONITOR OUT as well).
Use the supplied audio cables to connect
AUDIO-TV IN (L/R) jacks to the corresponding AUDIO
OUT jacks on the TV.
Use the supplied video cable to connect
VIDEO-MONITOR OUT jack to the corresponding
VIDEO IN jack on a TV.
Option
If the TV has a S-Video input jack, connect it to the
VIDEO-S-VIDEO OUT jack using an S-video cable (not
supplied) instead of MONITOR OUT jack for better
picture clarity.
