Connecting the Cable Box/Satellite Receiver to the System and to a TV
This connection will let you use the features of both the VCR and the DVD Player.
• If your Cable Box/Satellite Receiver has Audio/Video Out jacks, use audio/video cables to connect them to the
AUDIO and VIDEO (VCR IN) jacks on the System.You will not need the RF coaxial cable as described at step 2.
Helpful Hint
1
Connect a Cable TV or Satellite signal to the IN jack on the Cable Box/Satellite Receiver.
2
Use an RF coaxial cable to connect the OUT Jack on the Cable Box/Satellite Receiver to
the System’s TV ANTENNA IN jack.
3
Use a second RF coaxial cable (one is supplied) to connect the System’s TV ANTENNA
OUT jack to the TV’s Antenna In jack.
4
Set the P/I PROGRESSIVE switch on the rear of the System to I (Interlace).
5
You are ready to connect the AM and FM antennas and the Speakers. Go to pages 16-17 to
connect these items.

When all connections are complete, plug in the power cords of the TV, Cable Box/Satellite
Receiver, and the System.

Set your TV to channel 3. If you cannot use channel 3 at your TV, you can change the System’s output
channel to channel 4. See step 6 on page eight for details.
