he side panel jacks provide a convenient way
for you to connect a camcorder to your TV.
The side panel jacks are recognized by your TV
as AV3.
You can obtain S-VIDEO quality with an S-VHS,
Hi-8, or digital camcorder by connecting to the
S-VIDEO input instead of the VIDEO (composite)
input.
To make the connections shown in this example,
you will need:
• one S-VIDEO cable
• two cables for audio connections (standard
RCA connectors).
NOTE: The cables are not supplied with your TV.
You should be able to buy them at most stores
that sell electronics. Or you can call our
Customer Care Center at 1-800-531-0039.

To simplify making connections, the con-
nectors on audio cables are often color
coded: red for the right channel, and white
for the left channel. The jacks on your TV
are likewise color coded to match the con-
nectors. To make S-Video connections, you
must use an S-Video cable.
