Connecting the DVD Player to a TV only (no stereo or amplifier)
TV has audio (red and white) and S-Video In jacks
● For better picture quality, use an optional S-Video cable to connect the S-VIDEO OUT jack on the DVD
Player to the S-VIDEO IN jack on your TV. You will not use the VIDEO OUT jack on the DVD Player, and
you will not need the yellow video cable. You will not use the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks, either.
● Set Dolby Digital and DTS to Off on the DVD Player. Details are on pages 40-41. Playing a DVD when the
settings are wrong will distort the sound or damage the speakers.
