etc., and with no heavy objects placed on top.

Switch off all components when connecting or disconnecting cables.

◆ Unplug the aerial cable from your TV and plug it into the

"ANT. IN" socket of the video.
Plug the short coaxial cable provided into the "ANT.OUT"

socket of the video and the aerial socket of the TV.

◆ Plug a RCA cable into the "RCA” socket of the video and

the AV socket on the TV if available.

This connection will provide best picture and sound quality.
Ask your dealer for an appropriate cable if you do not have one.
Without a RCA cable, you need to follow the steps described under

"If you are not using a RCA cable" (right page and page 17).

◆ Make sure the rating of the household mains supply matches the

batteries contain toxic substances they require special disposal methods.

◆ Make sure the batteries are always of the same type and age, and remove them

from the remote control if you are not using it for a long period.
