8 Hookups  
Determining the best possible connection...  
Your hookup will be determined primarily by your existing equipment, especially yourTV. These guidelines describe  
which options have the best picture and sound quality.You will not use all the jacks on the DVD/VCR.  
★★★★ If yourTV has ComponentVideo In jacks (which could be labeledY CR CB,Y PR PB orYUV and may be  
green, blue and red), use the ComponentVideo jacks (Y CB/PB CR/PR) for the best picture quality. If you use  
only this video connection, only the DVD picture will be available. To see DVD features on theTV, set theTV  
to its ComponentVideo In channel. ComponentVideo provides the best picture quality. See page 10.  
Progressive Scan provides less flickering and higher image resolution than traditional (525i/480i or interlace)  
TV signals.  
If yourTV has Progressive Scan (525p/480p or progressive), connect theTV to the DVD/VCR’s  
COMPONENTVIDEO OUT (Y CB/PB  
DVD/VCR’s DISPLAY Menu. See pages 50-5  
Progressive Scan also  
CR/PR) jacks. Set Progressive Scan (PROG. SCAN) to ON in the  
1
. P.SCAN will appear on the DVD/VCR’s display panel. Set yourTV to  
.
If yourTV does not have Progressive Scan but has ComponentVideo In jacks, connect them to  
the DVD/VCR’s COMPONENTVIDEO OUT jacks (Y CB/PB CR/PR). Set Progressive Scan (PROG. SCAN) to  
OFF either in the DISPLAY Menu or by pressing and holding PLAY B (DVD) on the front of the DVD/VCR  
for more than 5 seconds. See pages 50-51.  
★★★ If yourTV has an S-Video In jack (which also may be labeledY/C or S-VHS), use the S-VIDEO OUT jack for  
excellent picture quality. If you use only this video connection, only the DVD picture will be available. To see  
DVD features on theTV, set theTV to its S-Video In channel. See page 10.  
★★  
If yourTV has a single yellowVideo In jack (which also may be labeled CVBS, Composite or baseband), use  
the yellow DVD/VCRVIDEO OUT jack for good picture quality. This connection provides a picture for both  
the DVD player and theVCR. To see DVD orVCR features on theTV, set theTV to itsVideo In channel. See  
page 9  
★★★★ If you have a Stereo with a Coaxial Digital Audio In jack, this provides the clearest sound for the DVD player.  
Connect the DVD/VCR’s COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack to your Stereo for the best sound quality. If  
you use only this audio connection, only disc sound (noVCR) will be available. See page 12.  
★★★ If digital audio connections are not possible, connect the DVD/VCR’s red and white DVD/VCR AUDIO OUT  
jacks to the Audio In jacks of your Stereo orTV. This connection provides sound for both the DVD player  
and theVCR. See pages 10-11.  
Before you begin...  
Refer to the manuals of yourTV, Cable Box, Stereo or other devices as necessary. Note the style of jacks and  
connectors on the other equipment. Determine how to choose different Audio andVideo In channels on your  
other equipment so you can see and hear the DVD/VCR material playing on theTV, Stereo, etc.  
Disconnect all equipment from the power outlets. Connect the equipment to power only after you have finished  
hooking up everything. Never make or change connections with equipment connected to power.  
Remember...  
Set theTV to the correctVideo In channel. Such channels may be called AUX or AUXILIARY IN, AUDIO/VIDEO or  
A/V IN, EXT1 or External In, etc. These channels often are located near channel zero (0). Or, yourTV’s remote may  
have a button or switch that selects theVideo Input channel. See yourTV manual for details. If you do not see the  
DVD orVCR playback on theTV, go to the lowestTV channel (01 or 02) and change channels downward until you  
see the DVD orVCR picture on theTV.  
To help you find the right Audio/Video In channel, turn on the DVD/VCR. Press DVD to put the DVD/VCR in DVD  
mode. With no disc in the player, a large DVDVideo logo will appear on theTV screen when you get theTV on the  
correct Audio/Video In channel.  
Set the Stereo to the correct channel or “source” mode.  
Depending on your connection, you may need to purchase additional cables or adaptors. If yourTV or monitor has  
BNC-type connectors, you will need an adaptor.  
Once you determine the best option, find your choice on pages 9-12. Follow the steps for the hookup  
you choose.Then, go to page 14 to complete the first-time setup.

(single-channel) audio.  
Cleaning the video heads  
Your DVD/VCR automatically cleans the video heads of theVCR each time you insert a tape. However, the heads  
may become dirty. If so, have an authorized servicer clean the video heads. Eventually, the heads may need to be  
replaced.  
The playback picture is too dim, too bright or fluctuates in brightness.  
Some programs may be broadcast with copyright protection technology in order to protect the rights of copyright  
owners. This technology is used on programs that are recorded on video cassettes or DVDs, as well as some  
programs broadcast by antenna/cable/satellite television channels. Programs broadcast with copyright protection may  
not record clearly. Likewise, if you play a tape that is a recording of a copyright protected program, the picture may  
not be clear. Tapes of copyright protected programs may have a picture that is dark or dim, or the brightness of the  
picture may fluctuate. Therefore, avoid recording or playing copies of copyright protected programs.

Care and Maintenance 61  
Cleaning the DVD/VCR  
• Wipe the front panel and other exterior surfaces of the DVD/VCR with a soft, slightly damp cloth.  
• Never use a solvent, thinner, benzene or alcohol to clean the DVD/VCR. Do not spray insecticide liquid  
near the DVD/VCR. Such chemicals may discolor the surface or damage the DVD/VCR.  
Cleaning a Disc  
• Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the disc.  
• Wipe the disc in a straight line from the center to the edge. Never wipe the disc in a circular motion.  
• Do not use detergent or abrasive cleaning agents.  
• Handle the discs so fingerprints and dust do not adhere to the discs.  
• Always store the disc in its protective case when it is not in use.  
Checking the Laser  
• If the DVD/VCR does not operate as described in this manual, the DVD player’s laser may be dirty.  
Consult an Authorized Service Center for inspection and cleaning of the laser.  
Caring forVideo Cassettes  
• Use only cassettes with the  
mark.  
• Remove any light adhesive stick-on notes from the video cassette before putting the cassette in theVCR.  
Removable labels can jam theVCR.  
Caring for theVCR’sVideo Heads  
• Periodic maintenance is required to maintain your DVD/VCR’s excellent performance. TheVCR has an  
Automatic Head Cleaner. However, the video heads will require replacement eventually. Only an  
authorized service center should perform this service.
