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

Coaxial Cables

How to View the VCR
To watch the VCR in this connection tune
TV to Channel 3 or 4.

Interactive Setup
section you

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.
