Connections & Setup

Front Inputs

the TV/DVD or on one of the sides. You can access the component you connected to the front of the TV/DVD by pressing the INPUT button on your
remote until FRNT appears on the screen. The jacks are ideal for using a video game console or a camcorder.
Note: When connecting a device that uses a monaural cable, such as some camcorders, use the Left (mono) input jack to get sound from both speakers.

or left arrow button to adjust the headphone volume.
