Basic connection
Connect your DVD/VCR to your home's aerial and to your TV-set as shown in the illustration.
When you have finished these connections, connect your DVD/VCR to the 230 V / 50 Hz mains.
In addition to the coaxial cable connection, you should also connect the SCART cable from the DVD/VCR to your
TV as shown. As well as transferring the high quality pictures and sound to your TV, the SCART connection can
automatically switch the TV to its AV channel for playback.
If your TV-set does not switch to video-playback operation automatically, please turn your TV's video switch to
VIDEO position manually.
Note:
Make sure that both the television and the DVD/VCR are switched off before connecting the cables.
