HOW TO CONNECT TO A TV WITHOUT AUDIO/VIDEO INPUT JACKS
If your TV does not have RCA type audio and video input jacks it is still possible to connect this DVD player to your TV’s 75-ohm coaxi-
al antenna terminal using a commercially available Stereo Audio/Video RF Modulator. Connect the audio and video outputs of the DVD
player to the audio and video inputs on the RF Modulator, and then connect the coaxial output of the RF Modulator (usually marked
“TO TV”) to the 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal on your TV. Follow the instruction supplied with the RF Modulator for more details.
If your TV’s 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal is already occupied by an antenna or cable box connection, remove that cable from your
TV’s antenna terminal and reconnect it to the coaxial antenna input terminal of the RF Modulator (usually marked “ANT IN”), then con-
nect the RF modulator to your TV’s antenna terminal as described above.
NOTE
•
The picture quality from DVD discs will not be as good if the DVD player is connected to the TV’s antenna terminal through an RF Modulator.
