Preparation

General Notes

¶ Depending on your TV and other equipment you wish to

connect, there are various ways you could connect the
player. Use only one of the connections described below.

¶ Please refer to the manuals of your TV, VCR, Stereo System

or other devices as necessary to make the best
connections.

¶ For better sound reproduction, connect the player’s audio

out jacks to the audio in jacks of your amplifier, receiver,
stereo or audio/video equipment. See ‘Connecting to
optional equipment’ on page 12.

Your TV may have only an RF-style jack, usually

labelled Antenna In, 75 ohm ( ) or RF IN. You
will need an RF modulator in order to connect the
DVD Player to your TV. See your electronics
retailer for details on RF modulator availability
and operations.

Caution:

Make sure the DVD Player is connected

directly to the TV. Set the TV to the correct video
input channel.

Do not connect the DVD Player’s audio out

jacks to the phono in jack of your audio system.

Do not connect your DVD Player via your

VCR. The DVD image could be distorted by the
copy protection system.

Set your TV to the correct Video In channel.

Such channels may be called AUX or AUXILIARY
IN, AUDIO/VIDEO or A/V IN, EXT1/EXT2/
EXTERNAL IN, etc. These channels are often
near channel 00 on the TV. See your TV owner’s
manual for details or keep changing TV channels
until you see the DVD screen saver or Disc
playback on the TV.
