Setup and Connections
SAMPLE CONNECTIONS
The following are sample connection scenarios which you may
encounter when connecting components to your TV. Note: those
components which offer an S-Video connection, such as DVD, VCR or
Satellite Receivers, must match their S-Video connection with their
audio INPUT connection.
CABLES
You will use the following cable to make your connection:
Coaxial Cables: Carries the signal from the
antenna or cable directly to the television or
through a cablebox, as needed by your cable
system.
Audio/Video Cables: Carries sound and video
from the component to the TV.
S-Video Cable: Carries video from an S-Video
capable component which provides best
picture quality.

Compared to the Basic Connection, using audio, video and
S-Video (if available) cables will enhance the sound and picture quality
from a component.
Cautions:
Position cables to Avoid Audio Hum or
Interference
• Insert all cables firmly into jacks.
• Place the audio/video cables to the
sides of the TV’s back panel instead of
straight down the middle.
• Try not to coil any twin-lead cables
and keep them away from the audio/
video cables.
Protect your components from
Overheating
• Do not block ventilation holes in any
of the components. Arrange the
components so that air can circulate
freely.
• Do not stack components.
• Allow adequate ventilation when
placing your components in a stand.
• Place an amplifier on the top shelf of
the stand so heated air rising from it
will not flow around other
components.
HOW TO V IEW Y OUR VCR
To watch the VCR in this connection, press TV to put the
remote control into TV mode, then press WHO•INPUT to
scroll through the video input channels until you tune to
VID1 input.
In the
Interactive Setup
section you can program the TV
to automatically tune to the VID1 input channel when
you turn on the VCR.
Most Audio/Video cables are combined
into one cable with three heads on each
end.
We show individual
cables in these
sample
connections. Either
may be used, but you
must be sure to connect
Video to Video, Right to Right and Left to
Left.
