Connections & Setup
Explanation of Jacks
This section describes the jacks you can use to make connections. There are several
ways to connect components to your TV/DVD.
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, AUDIO R and L/MONO Lets you connect a
component such as a VCR.
• 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 IN 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.
