Connecting the DVD Player to a TV only (no stereo or amplifier)
TV has AUDIO (red and white) and VIDEO (yellow) IN jacks
You may connect the DVD Player several different ways, depending on your existing equipment and your pref-
erences for sound and picture quality. To determine which hookup is best for you, examine the options on the
following pages, then see which best matches your situation. Before you hook up the DVD Player, remember:
●Connect the DVD Player directly to a TV. If you connect the DVD Player to a VCR, then connect the VCR
to the TV, the picture may be distorted by the copyright protection system.
●Turn off the power of all equipment before making any connections.
●Refer to the owner’s manuals of your other equipment for additional information.
●Depending on your connection, you may need to purchase additional cables.
●If you do not connect the DVD Player to a Dolby Digital or DTS Decoder, set Dolby Digital and DTS to Off
on the DVD Player. Details are on pages 11 and 40-41. Playing a DVD when the settings are wrong will dis-
tort the sound or damage the speakers.
