Connecting Your Tv; Connecting A Vcr - Toshiba 26AF45C Owner's Manual

Connecting your TV

• A coaxial cable is the standard cable that comes in from your
antenna or cable converter box. Coaxial cables use "F" connectors.
• Standard A/V (audio/video) cables are usually color coded
according to use: yellow for video and red and white for audio.
The red audio cable is for the stereo right channel, and the white
audio cable is for the stereo left (or mono) channel. If you look at
the rear panel of the TV, you will see that the terminals are color
coded in the same manner as the cables.
• An S-video cable provides better picture performance than a
standard video cable. S-video cables can only be used with S-video
compatible components.
• Component video cables come in sets of three and provide the best
picture performance. Component video cables can only be used
with component video compatible components.

MENT DAMAGE!
Do not plug in any power cords
until you have finished connecting
all equipment.
You will need:
• two coaxial cables
• one set of standard A/V cables
Note:
If using a mono VCR, connect L/Mono to
VCR Audio OUT using only one audio cable.
For better picture quality, if your VCR has
S-video, you can use an S-video cable
instead of the standard video cable.
Do not connect a standard video cable and
an S-video cable to VIDEO1 simultaneously.

tion or revision of television programs,
