Connecting your TV

Connecting a VCR and antenna or 
Cable TV (no Cable box)

You will need:

• signal splitter
• coaxial cables
• standard A/V cables

– For better picture performance, if your VCR has S-video, 

use an S-video cable (plus the audio cables) instead of 
the standard video cable. Do not connect both types of 
video cable to 

VIDEO 1

 at the same time or the picture 

performance will be unacceptable.

– If you have a mono VCR, connect 

L/MONO

 on the TV to 

your VCR’s audio out terminal using the white audio cable 
only.

Note: 

The 

VIDEO/AUDIO OUT

 terminals output signals from 

the 

ANT 1

ANT 2

VIDEO 1
