Note
• When you record a TV programme from a Satellite
Box, you must connect a Scart cable to
AV2(DECODER). (See page 38.)
• If the external equipment connected to the
AV2(DECODER) socket supplies control voltage to
this unit via Pin 8 of the Scart cable, the display
functions (e.g.P01) of the remote control cannot be
seen on the TV. In this case, turn off the external
equipment to prevent control voltage.

Audio-Video equipment with no Scart output
socket (AV3)
If no S-Video input jack is available, connect to
VIDEO input jack on the front panel using an RCA
Video cable.
Set “S-Video In” when using S-VIDEO input jack.

the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (COAXIAL)
jack to connect your digital audio
equipment.
If the audio format of the digital output does not
match the capabilities of your receiver, the
receiver will produce a strong, distorted sound or
no sound at all.
