the back of your DVD Player, and to the corresponding Audio Input jacks on your TV
(sometimes labeled AUDIO INPUT L and R).

the back of your DVD Player, and to the Video Input jack on your TV (sometimes labeled

If your TV has component video jacks (Y,Pb, Pr), use video-grade cables (not provided) to connect the
TV to the DVD player’s COMPONENT VIDEO OUT (Y, Pb, Pr) jacks. It is essential to match the color
coded connectors with a compatible TV.
If you have a Progressive Scan TV, you must use the Component Video connection (Y, Pb, Pr), and
activate Progressive Scan by pressing the PREV/VIDEO button on the front of the DVD player (for
instructions, go to page 35).
3. Connect the antenna or cable to the Antenna Input jack on the VCR (sometimes labeled IN

have a VCR connected to the TV.

Antenna Input jack (IN FROM CABLE/ANTENNA) on the TV.
5. Insert the AC power cord into an AC outlet.

e Information about Progressive Scan
Some high-end HDTVs and multimedia monitors offer progressive scanning of the video
signal instead of interlace. Proponents of Progressive Scan say it provides a crisper picture
because it eliminates the “flicker” or “jitter”at the edges of the screen.Your DVD player is
equipped to send a progressive scan signal, but you must connect the DVD player via the
COMPONENT jacks (Y,Pb, Pr) to a Progressive Scan TV or monitor,AND you must activate
Progressive Scan by pressing the PREV/VIDEO button on the front of the DVD player (for
instructions, go to page 35).
Note: If your TV doesn’t have Audio and Video Input Jacks and only has an RF jack, you need
to connect an RF modulator (not provided). For information, go to page 41.
