Philips DVD750VR Quick start guide

There are many ways to connect your new DVD/VCR to your Television and other equipment.This Quick-Use
Guide shows the easiest, most common connection.
Higher quality connections are explained in the accompanying owner’s manual and will provide better sound or
picture if your TV and/or audio system is compatible.

1

Disconnect all equipment from the power outlets. Connect the equipment to the power outlets only after you
have finished hooking up everything. Never make or change connections with equipment connected to the power outlet.

2

If you do not have a Cable Box, simply connect your Antenna or Cable TV signal directly to the ANT-IN jack
on the rear of the DVD/VCR.
If you do have a Cable Box (or Satellite Receiver), first connect the Cable TV (or Satellite) signal to the IN
jack on the Cable Box/Satellite Receiver. Then, use an RF coaxial cable (like the one supplied) to connect the
OUT jack of the Cable Box/Satellite Receiver to the ANT-IN jack on the DVD/VCR.

3

Connect the supplied black RF coaxial cable to the DVD/VCR’s ANT-OUT jack and to your TV’s ANTENNA
IN jack. The TV’s ANTENNA IN jack could be labelled 75-ohm, TV IN, or RF IN. Check your TV manual for details.

4

Set the INTERLACE/PROGRESSIVE SCAN SELECTOR to INTERLACE (I).

5

Connect the power cords of the DVD/VCR,TV, and Cable Box (if applicable) to a power outlet.

6

Turn on the TV power. Set the TV to channel 3. (If you cannot use channel 3 at your TV, you can use channel 4
instead. However, you must set the DVD/VCR’s output channel to 4. See the accompanying DVD/VCR owner’s manu­al for details.)

7

Press STANDBY-ON 2 on the DVD/VCR or its remote to turn on the DVD/VCR. The first time you
turn on the DVD/VCR, you should complete the VCR setup. See the other side of this Quick-Use Guide
for details.
