Setup and Connections
The Basic connection (PIP Not Available)
The basic connection below (TV and VCR) is the most common
connection and is therefore used to illustrate a single component
connection with your TV. For better sound and picture quality and
multiple component connection information refer to the next section,
Advanced Connections .
Cables
You will use the following type of cable to make your connection:
Coaxial Cables : In this connection, two Coaial
Cables are used: one connects from an antenna,
cable, or cable box to the VCR, and one connects
from the VCR to the TV. These cables carry both
audio and video signals.

How to View the VCR
To watch the VCR in this connection tune TV to
Channel 3 or 4.
Later, in the Interactive Setup section you will
program the TV to automatically tune to Channel 3 or
4 when you turn on the VCR.
This Connection Will Not Allow
You to Use PIP
Your TV is equipped with a single tuner,
which means you must connect with a
second video source using Audio/Video
Cables to view PIP. This Basic Connection
will not enable you to use your PIP, but
will get your TV up and running quickly.
Refer to Advanced Connections for
connecting Audio/Video cables to your
VCR or other video component.
