(3.5 mm) plug to the

jack
on the back. This automatically mutes
the built-in speaker.
protect your hearing, follow these
guidelines when you use earphones.
• Set the volume to the lowest set-
ting before you begin listening.
After you begin listening, adjust
the volume to a comfortable level.
• Do not listen at extremely high
volume levels. Extended high-vol-
ume listening can lead to perma-
nent hearing loss.
• Once you set the volume, do not
increase it. Over time, your ears
adapt to the volume level, so a
volume level that does not cause
discomfort might still damage your
hearing.
USING THE AV IN JACK
The
AV IN
jack on the back of the TV
lets you connect a VCR, camcorder,
or VCD to the TV. To connect the vid-
eo equipment to the TV, you need an
Audio/Video adapter plug. (We recom-
mend RadioShack Cat. No.
42-2475,
not supplied.)
Connect the cable’s red plug into the
component’s video output jack and its
white plug into the component’s audio
output jack. Then, plug the cable’s
black mini plug into the TV’s
AV IN
jack. The TV automatically switches to
the AV mode. When you disconnect
the video source's signal cord, the TV
automatically returns to the TV mode.
