Chapter 1: Connections and Setup

Things to Consider Before You Connect

Protect Against Power Surges

•Connect all components before you plug any of their power cords into the wall outlet.

•Turn off the TV and/or component before you connect or disconnect any cables.

•Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded. Refer to the Important Safety Instructions

packed separately.

Protect Components from Overheating

•Don’t block ventilation holes on any of the components. Arrange the components so that air can

circulate freely.

•Don’t stack components.

• If you place components in a stand, make sure you allow adequate ventilation.

• If you connect an audio receiver or amplifier, place it on the top shelf so the heated air from it won’t

flow around other components.

Position Cables Properly to Avoid Audio Interference

• Insert each cable firmly into the designated jack.

• If you place components above the TV, route all cables down the side of the back of the TV instead

of straight down the middle of the TV.

• If your antenna uses 300-ohm twin lead cables, do not coil the cables. Also, keep the twin lead

cables away from audio/video cables.

Important Stand and Base Safety Information

Choose the location for your TV carefully. Place the TV on a stand or base that is of adequate size and

strength to prevent the TV from being accidentally tipped over, pushed off, or pulled off. This could

cause personal injury and/or damage the TV. Refer to the Important Safety Instructions packed

separately.

Use Indirect Light

Don’t place the TV where sunlight or room lighting will be directed toward the screen. Use soft or

indirect lighting.

Cables Needed to Connect Components to Your TV

The pictures below show the cables you may need for the connections represented in this book.

A. Connect the audio (white and red) cables to the VIDEO 1 R and L/MONO AUDIO jacks on the back

of the TV and to the Audio Output jacks on the DVD player (sometimes labeled L and R).

B. If your DVD player has an S-Video jack, connect an S-Video cable to the S-Video jack on the DVD

player and to the S-VIDEO jack on the back of the TV. If your DVD player doesn’t have an

S-Video jack, go to 1D.

-OR-

C. Model 24F530T only: If your DVD player has a component video jacks (Y,Pb,Pr), connect video

grade cables to the Component Video jacks on the DVD player and to the Y, Pb, Pr jacks on the

back of the TV. If your DVD player doesn’t have component video jacks, go to 1D.

-OR-

D. Connect a video cable (yellow) to the Video Output Jack on the DVD player and to the VIDEO jack

on the back of the TV.

2. Connect your TV to your VCR

Connect a coaxial cable to the ANTENNA IN jack on your TV and to the RF Output jack on your VCR

(sometimes labeled OUT TO TV).

3. Make sure cable or antenna is connected to your VCR.

Connect the coaxial cable from your cable outlet or antenna to the antenna input on the VCR

(sometimes labeled In From Antenna).

Note: If you do not connect a cable, antenna, or another component to your TV, the TV will automatically

shut off after 15 minutes to save power.

Component Video (Y, Pb, Pr), Audio Out, and

Y, Pb, Pr (Component Video) Provides optimum picture

quality because the video is separated into three signals. Use

three video-grade cables for the connection. These cables are

often color-coded (red, blue and green). When using Y, Pb,

Pr, make sure you connect left and right audio cables to the

R and L AUDIO input jacks.

Note: The Y component video jack is also the composite VIDEO 2

video jack and is colored yellow. Keep this in mind when connecting

to the component video jacks.

Audio Output (L and R) Connect an amplifier or audio

receiver for improved sound quality.

SUB WOOFER Allows you to connect an external subwoofer

for improved bass effects.

ANTENNA IN Lets you connect a coaxial cable to receive

the signal from the antenna, cable, cable box, or if using the

example on page 4, a VCR.

VIDEO 1 and VIDEO 2

VIDEO, AUDIO R and L/MONO Lets you connect a

component such as a VCR, DVD player, or laserdisc player.

•R (RIGHT) AUDIO Provides right audio connection. The

right audio connector is usually red.

•L/MONO AUDIO Provides left audio connection. The

left audio connector is usually white.

•VIDEO Provides composite video connection. The video

connector is usually yellow.

•S-VIDEO Provides better picture quality than the video

jacks because the color part of the signal is separated

from the black and white part of the picture. When using

S-VIDEO IN, make sure to connect left and right audio

cables to the L/MONO and R AUDIO Input jacks.

ANTENNA IN jack and coaxial cable.
