Connection: TV/VCR + DVD Player
1. Connect your cable or antenna to your TV/VCR
Connect the RF coaxial cable from your cable feed, cable box, or off-air antenna to the
ANT/CABLE jack on the back of your TV/VCR.
2. Connect your DVD Player to your TV/VCR
To achieve the best picture quality, use the COMPONENT INPUT jacks on the back of the
TV/VCR to connect the TV/VCR to your DVD Player.
Note: Recording can’t be done in the COMPONENT INPUT (video/audio) mode.
If your DVD Player doesn’t have Component Jacks, use audio/video cables to connect the TV/VCR to the DVD
Player using the LINE IN VIDEO and AUDIO L and R jacks on the TV/VCR. Instructions for both scenarios follow:
Optimum Connection (illustrated above)

Normal Connection
A. Connect audio/video cables to the LINE IN/IN 1 jacks on the back of the TV/VCR (labeled VIDEO and AUDIO L

right audio, and white is left audio).
B. Connect the other ends of the a/v cables to the audio and video output jacks on the back of the DVD Player
(sometimes labeled AUDIO OUT L and R).
