Connect to your TV or VCR
The first step in setting up your
MSN TV 2 Internet player is connect-
ing it to your TV, or to a piece of
equipment that's already connected
to your TV, such as a VCR.
Because there are so many models
and variations of TVs and VCRs,
there are different ways to connect
your Internet player.
You only need to connect using
one method.

Does your TV or
VCR have avail-
able audio/video
jacks like these?
Yes
If you see input jacks like these that aren't being
used on your TV or VCR, use the instructions on
the next page to connect using audio/video
jacks. If another device connected to your TV has
input jacks like these, you can use the same steps
as those for connecting a VCR.
No
If your TV or VCR doesn't have any audio/video
input jacks, or if all of these jacks are being used,
you can try connecting your Internet player to
an antenna jack. Turn to page 9 for instructions
on connecting using an antenna jack.
Televisions vary in the alignment and placement of their
jacks. They can be on the front or the back of the TV.
Focus on the types of jacks you have, not on where they
are or how they are aligned. This set of jacks may be
labeled IN, INPUT, AUDIO/VIDEO IN, or something similar.
To connect using audio/video jacks
1
Turn off your television and any equipment that
is connected to it, such as a VCR, DVD, DVR, or
cable box.
2
Look at the supplied audio/video cable. Note that
there are three colored connectors on each end.
3
Connect the cable so that it goes from the Internet
player to the set of Input jacks on your TV or VCR.
Connect the yellow connectors to the yellow jacks,
the white connectors to the white jacks, and the red
connectors to the red jacks. If you don't have red jacks
on your TV or VCR, do not use the red connectors.
Important Be sure to connect the cables to IN or INPUT
jacks on your television or VCR. Do not connect the cables
to the OUT or OUTPUT jacks.
After you're finished with these steps, make a note of
what you've connected your Internet player to — your
TV or VCR. You'll need to know this information later
on in the setup process.
The next step in setting up your Internet player is connect-
ing to a phone line or a Broadband connection. Turn to
page 10 for instructions.
