Chapter 1: Connections & Setup

Things to Consider Before You Connect

Protect Against Power Surges

•Connect all components before you plug any of their power cords into the wall

outlet.

•Turn off the TV and/or component before you connect or disconnect any

cables.

•Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded. Refer to the

Important Safety Instructions packed separately.

Protect Components from Overheating

•Don’t block ventilation holes on any of the components. Arrange the

components so that air can circulate freely.

•Don’t stack components.

• If you place components in a stand, make sure you allow adequate ventilation.

•If you connect an audio receiver or amplifier, place it on the top shelf so the

heated air from it won’t flow around other components.

Position Cables Properly to Avoid Audio Interference

• Insert each cable firmly into the designated jack.

•If you place components above the TV, route all cables down the side of the

back of the TV instead of straight down the middle of the TV.

•If your antenna uses 300-ohm twin lead cables, do not coil the cables. Also,

keep the twin lead cables away from audio/video cables.

Important Stand and Base Safety Information

Choose the location for your TV carefully. Place the TV on a stand or base that is of

adequate size and strength to prevent the TV from being accidentally tipped over,

pushed off, or pulled off. This could cause personal injury and/or damage the TV.

Refer to the Important Safety Instructions packed separately.

Use Indirect Light

Don’t place the TV where sunlight or room lighting will be directed toward the

screen. Use soft or indirect lighting.

Cables Needed to Connect Components to Your TV

The pictures below show the cables needed for the connections represented in this

book.

Connections & Setup

TV + DVD + VCR

1. Connect your DVD Player to your TV.

A. Connect the audio (white and red) cables to the VIDEO 2 R and L/MONO AUDIO jacks on the back

of the TV and to the Audio Output jacks on the DVD player.

B. If your DVD player has Component Output Jacks (Y, Pb, Pr), connect three video grade cables to

the Y, Pb, Pr jacks on the DVD player and to the VIDEO 2 Y, Pb, Pr jacks on the back of the TV. If

your DVD player doesn’t have Y, Pb, Pr jacks, go to C.

-OR-

C. If your DVD player has an S-Video jack, connect an S-Video cable to the S-Video jack on the DVD

player and the S-VIDEO IN jack on the back of the TV. If your DVD player doesn’t have an

S-Video jack, go to D.

Note: If you connect an S-Video cable, you must connect the audio cables to the VIDEO 1 AUDIO jacks on the back of the

TV, not the VIDEO 2 AUDIO jacks.

-OR-

D. Connect a video cable (yellow) to the Video Output Jack on the DVD player and to the VIDEO 2

VIDEO jack on the back of the TV.

2. Connect your TV to your VCR

Connect a coaxial cable to the TV ANT jack on your TV and to the Output Jack on your VCR

(sometimes labeled OUT TO TV).

Note: If your VCR has A/V output jacks, you can connect your TV to your VCR using audio/video cables for better quality.

3. Make sure cable or antenna is connected to your VCR.

Connect the coaxial cable from your cable outlet or antenna to the antenna input on the VCR.

Explanation of Jacks

This section describes the jacks you can use to make connections. There are several

ways to connect components to your TV.

TV ANT Lets you connect a coaxial cable to receive the signal from the antenna,

cable, cable box, or if using the example on page 4, a VCR.

VIDEO 1

VIDEO, AUDIO R and L/MONO INPUTS Lets you connect a

component such as a VCR, DVD player, or laserdisc player.

•R (RIGHT) AUDIO Provides right audio connection. The

right audio connector is usually red.

•L/MONO AUDIO Provides left audio connection. The

left audio connector is usually white.

•VIDEO Provides composite video connection. The video

connector is usually yellow.

•S-VIDEO Provides better picture quality than the video

jacks because the color part of the signal is separated

from the black and white part of the picture. When using

S-VIDEO IN, make sure to connect left and right audio

cables to the L/MONO and R AUDIO Input jacks.

VIDEO 2

VIDEO, AUDIO R and L/MONO and Y, Pb, Pr INPUTS Lets

you connect a component video source, such as a DVD player.

•Y, Pb, Pr Provides optimum picture quality because the

video is separated into three signals. Use three video-

grade cables for the connection. When using VIDEO 2

Y, Pb, Pr, make sure to connect left and right audio cables

to the VIDEO 2 AUDIO Input jacks.

•R and L/MONO AUDIO and VIDEO Their description is

the same as VIDEO 1.

VIDEO 3

R and L AUDIO and Y, Pb, Pr INPUTS Lets you connect a

second component video source, such as a DVD player. Their

description is the same as VIDEO 2 above. When using

VIDEO 3 Y, Pb, Pr, make sure you connect the left and right

audio cables to the VIDEO 3 Audio jacks.

AUDIO/VIDEO OUTPUTS Lets you connect an amplifier or

audio receiver for improved sound quality or an external

video monitor, for models with Video Out.

Connections & Setup

The Front of Your TV

Front Input Jacks

The TV has front input jacks for your convenience: one set of

audio/video inputs, an S-Video and a headphone jack. These

jacks are towards the front of the TV on the side. To access

the component you connected to the front of the TV, press

the INPUT button on your remote until FRNT appears on the

screen. The jacks are ideal for connecting a video game

console or a camcorder.

Note: When connecting a component that only has one audio jack,

such as some camcorders, use the TV’s AUDIO L/MONO jack to hear

the audio.

H-PHONE Allows you to connect headphones to listen to

the sound coming from the TV.

L/MONO and R AUDIO Receives audio from another

component such as a VCR, camcorder, or video game console.

VIDEO Receives video from another component such as a

VCR, camcorder, or video game console.
