Before you begin, make sure you have an RF modulator and extra RF coaxial cables.
These are not supplied with the Player, but are available from Philips or most
consumer electronics retailers.
1 Connect the supplied video cable (which has yellow markings) to the Player’s yellow
VIDEO (VIDEO OUT) jack. Connect the other end of the cable to the VIDEO IN
jack on the RF modulator. The VIDEO IN jack on the RF modulator is usually yellow and
might be labelled VIDEO, CVBS, COMPOSITE, or BASEBAND.
2 Connect the supplied audio cable (which has red and white markings) to the
Player’s AUDIO OUT (left and right) jacks.
Connect the other ends of the audio cable to the AUDIO IN jacks on the RF
modulator. Audio jacks on the RF modulator usually are red (right) and white (left). Match the
cable colors to the jack colors.
3 You probably already have an Antenna or Cable TV signal connected to the ANTENNA IN jack
on your TV. Disconnect it now from the TV. Reconnect the Antenna or Cable TV
signal to the ANTENNA IN jack on your RF modulator.
4 Connect an RF coaxial cable (not supplied) to the RF OUT, ANTENNA OUT, or TO
TV jack on the RF modulator. The RF OUT jack may be labelled differently among different
brands. Refer to the instructions provided with your RF modulator. Connect the other end of
the same RF coaxial cable to the ANTENNA IN or RF IN jack on your Television.
5 Your RF Modulator should have a Channel 3/4 switch.The setting of this switch determines the
TV channel on which you will watch materials playing on the DVD Player.
Set the RF Modulator’s Channel 3/4 switch to either 3 or 4, whichever TV channel is
least used in your area. If your RF modulator has a Modulator/Antenna switch, set it
accordingly. Refer to the instructions that came with the RF Modulator.
6 Connect the power cords of all the equipment to a power outlet.
7 Turn on your TV and choose channel 3 or 4. Choose the same channel to which you set
the RF Modulator’s Channel 3/4 switch.
