SETTING UP YOUR VCR/DVD COMBINATION
CAUTION:
• Be sure to turn off the VCR/DVD and equipment to be connected before connecting.
• Read through the operation manual for the equipment to be connected.
• Be sure to keep the VCR/DVD connection cables separate from the TV antenna cable when you install the VCR/DVD,
because it may cause electrical interference when you are watching television programmes.
• DTS audio cannot be produced with an analogue connection.

• Method 1 DVD/VCR + TV with Video Input Jack
• Method 2 DVD/VCR + TV with S-Video Input Jack
• Method 3 DVD/VCR + TV with Component Video Jacks
• When the VCR/DVD is connected to a TV using both a VIDEO cable and an S-VIDEO cable, only the S-VIDEO connection
is enabled (the VIDEO connection is disabled).
• You will not be able to hear all of the sound being output by the VCR/DVD if you use the VIDEO/AUDIO cable (supplied) to a
monaural TV that has only one AUDIO input jack.
NOTES:
• Be sure that the colours of the jacks and plugs match up when connecting the cable.
• Connect the VCR/DVD directly to the TV. If you attempt to view video on a TV connected via a VCR, the copy protection
function will scramble the picture.
• If you want to listen to the audio through audio equipment, connect only the S-VIDEO or VIDEO cable to the TV.
