SETUP AND CONNECTIONS

SETUP AND CONNECTIONS

• Ensure that the power switch of this unit (and of

other equipment to be connected) is set to “Off”
before commencing connection.

• Do not block the ventilation holes of any of the

equipment and arrange them so that air can 
circulate freely.

• Read through the instructions before connecting

other equipment.

• Ensure that you observe the color-coding when con-

necting audio and video cables.

NOTES:

• The video output (yellow) combines the complete

video signal (composite) and sends it to the TV 
(or to the A / V receiver) by one cable only. Use the
video output when your TV set is equipped with 
a video input jack only.

• The S-Video output connector separates the color (C)

and luminance (Y) signals before transmitting them to
the TV set in order to achieve a sharper picture. Use

the S-Video cable when connecting the player to a
TV equipped with an S-Video input for improved
picture clarity. Never connect both outputs, video
and S-Video, to your TV or A/V receiver; use only
one of them.

• When the audio signal is to be fed to an analog

receiver rather than to the TV, connect the audio out
jacks to any analog audio input on your amplifier/
decoder/receiver. The DVD 22 will “downmix”

Dolby Digital recordings to Pro Logic.* For more
information see the IMPORTANT NOTE on next
page.

standard composite video connection if your
TV does not have an S-Video input. Only one
video connection is needed, not both.
