resented here is a connection example

involving a VCR and cable box.

Refer to the VCR’s directions-for-use manual
for further information on connections.

To make the connections in this example, you
will need:
• one, two-way signal splitter
• two coaxial cables (75

)

• one cable for a video connection (standard

RCA-type phono plug)

• two cables for audio connections (standard

RCA-type phono plugs) (only one cable is
needed for connection to a nonstereo
VCR).

NOTE: The cables are not supplied with your
TV. You should be able to buy them at most
stores that sell electronics. Or you can call
our Customer Care Center at
1-800-531-0039.

1

Connect a cable TV signal to a two-
way signal splitter.

2

Connect one of the two-way signal
splitter outputs to the CABLE IN
jack on the cable box.

3

Connect the other two-way signal
splitter output to the ANTENNA IN
75

on the back of the TV.

4

Connect from the cable box TO TV
jack to the ANT IN jack on the back
of the VCR.

5

Connect the VIDEO OUT jack on
the VCR to the INPUT-AV 2 VIDEO
jack on the back of the TV.

6

Connect the AUDIO OUT R(ight)
and L(eft) jacks on the VCR to
INPUT-AV 2 AUDIO jacks on the
back of the TV.

NOTE:

If the VCR is a nonstereo unit,

connect only the left audio cable,
which usually has a white-coded plug.

7

Press the AV button on the remote
control as many times as necessary
to select the AV2 source for viewing
of materials from the cable box or
VCR.

• The RF output on a cable box, usually

labeled “OUTPUT,” “OUT,” or “TO TV,”
will not pass a stereo sound signal to the
ANTENNA IN 75Ω jack on the TV. If, how-
ever, your cable box has separate
Audio/Video outputs, using A/V cables to
connect to those outputs and to the A/V
inputs on the TV might pass a stereo sound
signal to the TV. Contact your cable TV
company for more information.

• To simplify making connections, the plugs

on audio and video cables are often color
coded. The jacks on your TV are likewise
color coded to match the plugs.
The coding is as follows:
—Yellow for video (composite)
—Red for the right audio channel
—White for the left audio channel

NOTE:

If your VCR is mono (nonstereo),

you will connect only one audio cable. You
must ensure that the TV is set to MONO for
the signal source to which you’ve connected
the VCR (INPUT-AV 2, INPUT-AV 1, or the
side panel inputs [AV3]). Otherwise, you will
receive sound from only one of the TV’s
