Before using your DVD player
If your TV has AUDIO/VIDEO input jacks, see
the section “Connections” on pages 6–7. If not,
it is still possible to connect this DVD player to
your TV by using a STEREO AUDIO/VIDEO
RF Modulator (commercially available.) In this
case, follow the instructions below.
1) Connect the AUDIO/VIDEO output jacks of
this DVD player to the AUDIO/VIDEO input
jacks of your RF Modulator by audio and
video cables.
2) The antenna input jack of your TV may
have been already occupied. If so, disconnect the RF cable from your TV and then
connect the RF cable to your RF Modulator
(usually marked “ANT IN”.)
3) Connect your RF modulator to your TV by
another RF cable.
4) Set your RF modulator’s channel 3/4 switch
to either 3 or 4, whichever the TV channel
is least used in your area. If your RF modulator has a Modulator/Antenna switch, set it
according to your RF modulator’s manual.
5) Turn on your TV and choose the same
channel as you set the RF modulator’s
channel 3/4 switch to.
For more details, follow the instructions
supplied with the RF Modulator.
