Connecting 

to a television and satellite receiver

The information given here refers to the two most common forms of connection. Make sure that all the appliances 
are unplugged from the mains power, before making any connections to avoid causing damage to your equipment.
Using a SCART cable to connect your appliances will give you the best sound and picture quality.
