between the ANT OUT
terminal on the VCR and the
ANT IN terminal on the TV.
4.
Connect a Video Cable
between the VIDEO OUT jack
on the VCR and the AV IN
[VIDEO] jack on the TV.
5.
Connect Audio Cables
between the AUDIO OUT
jacks on the VCR and the AV
IN [R-AUDIO-L] jacks on the
TV.
If you have a “mono”
(non-stereo) VCR, use a
Y-connector (not supplied) to
hook up to the right and left
audio input jacks of the TV.
If your VCR is stereo, you
must connect two cables.
Follow the instructions in “Viewing a VCR or Camcorder Tape” to view your VCR tape.
Each VCR has a different back panel configuration.
