Connecting Accessory Devices to Your TV CONNECTING A VCR AND CABLE BOX Presented here is a connection example involving a VCR and cable box. Refer to the VCR's directions-for-use manual for further information on connections. To make the connections in this example, you will need: • one, two-way signal splitter • two coaxial cables (75Ω) • one cable for a video connection (standard RCA-type phono plug) • two cables for audio connections (standard RCA-type phono plugs) (only one cable is needed for connection to a nonstereo VCR). NOTE: The cables are not supplied with your TV. You should be able to buy them at most stores that sell electronics. Or you can call our Customer Care Center at 1-800-531-0039.

If, however, your cable box has separate Audio/Video outputs, using A/V cables to connect to those outputs and to the A/V inputs on the TV might pass a stereo sound signal to the TV. Contact your cable TV company for more information. • To simplify making connections, the plugs on audio and video cables are often color coded. The jacks on your TV are likewise color coded to match the plugs. The coding is as follows: -Yellow for video (composite) -Red for the right audio channel -White for the left audio channel NOTE: If your VCR is mono (nonstereo), you will connect only one audio cable. You must ensure that the TV is set to MONO for the signal source to which you've connected the VCR (INPUT-AV 2, INPUT-AV 1, or the side panel inputs [AV3]). Otherwise, you will receive sound from only one of the TV's speakers. See page 36.
