Connecting the Device with Composite Video (Basic)
This connection allows you to connect a device that has a Video Out jack, for example, a
VCR.
Note: If the device you're connecting also has Component Video jacks and you have
component video cables, we recommend you use the Component Video (Advanced)
Connection instead. See instructions below.
Using the example of a VCR:
If necessary, connect your cable and/or off-air antenna as described on
page 6.
Connect the yellow video cable.
Connect a video cable to the composite (VID) video jack on the back of the TV and to
the Video Output jack on the VCR.
Connect the red and white audio cables.
Connect the audio (red and white) cables to the (VID) AUDIO R and L jacks on the
back of the TV and to the Audio Output jacks on the VCR.
Connecting the Device with Component Video (Advanced)
This connection allows you to connect a device that has Y Pb Pr jacks, for example, a DVD
player.
Using the example of a DVD player:
If necessary, connect your cable and/or off-air antenna as described on
page 6.
Connect the Y Pb Pr component video cables.
Connect three video cables or special Y Pb Pr cables to the COMPONENT INPUT
(CMPT) Y Pb Pr jacks on the back of the TV and to the Y Pb Pr outputs on the DVD
player.
Connect the red and white audio cables.
Connect the audio (red and white) cables to the (CMPT) AUDIO R and L jacks on the
back of the TV and to the Audio Output jacks on the DVD player.
Viewing the Picture from the Connected Device
1. Plug in the TV (see page 13 for details) and the device, if they aren't already
plugged in.
2. Turn on the TV and the device you want to view, for example a DVD player.
3. Repeatedly press the INPUT button on the remote control until you see VID (if
connected to the VIDEO INPUT jack) or CMPT (if connected to the CMPT jacks)
displayed at the top left of the TV's screen. To go back to viewing TV channels, use
the INPUT button to get back to TV.
Note: If the picture from the DVD player appears black and white and your device
is connected to the VIDEO Input, you might be tuned to the wrong input. Make sure you
press INPUT until you see VID displayed at the top left of the TV's screen.
