G Make one of the following connections,
depending on the capabilities of your existing
equipment.
The following guidelines are options for the
best picture and sound quality available on
your DVD/VCR.
Picture
1
Use SCART RGB Output (DVD/VCR(AV1
TV)) for best picture quality (for DVD fea-
tures).
2
Use S-VIDEO Output for the better picture
quality (for DVD features only).
3
Use SCART Composite Output for good pic-
ture quality (for DVD and VCR features).
4
If your TV only has a RF-style (Antenna IN or
75 ohm) input, use the RF OUT for connec-
tion and set your TV to channel 22 ~ 69 with
the same channel for DVD/VCR is set (for
DVD and VCR features).
Sound
1
Digital audio connections provide the clearest
sound. Connect the DVD/VCR DIGITAL
AUDIO OUT (either COAXIAL or OPTI-
CAL) to your amplifier or receiver (for DVD
features only).
2
Use SCART Output (DVD/VCR(AV1 TV)) for
better sound quality (for DVD and VCR fea-
tures).
If digital connections are not possible, connect
the DVD/VCR ANALOG AUDIO OUT(Left
and Right) to your amplifier, receiver, stereo or
TV (for DVD features only).
Warning!
– Never make or change connections with
the power switched on.
– Connect the DVD/VCR directly to your
TV, instead of eg. a VCR, to avoid distortion
because DVD video discs are copy protect-
ed.
– Do not connect the ANALOG AUDIO
OUT of DVD/VCR to PHONO IN of your
amplifier or receiver.
– If you use the Euro audio/video cable, it
is not necessary to connect the analog
audio cable.
