Connecting the DVD portion of the Citizen JDVD3825PB using
s-video and optical cables
S-Video, also known as Super-Video or SVHS, provides superior quality picture over traditional Composite Video connec-
tions. You should use this type of connection for Video if your television supports it and does not support Component Video. If
your television supports this connection as many newer televisions do, you must still connect audio cables as S-Video
connections carry only the Video signal.
If your stereo system supports Optical or Digital Coax connectors, either one should be used to connect the DVD players
Audio signal. Below illustrates the correct hook-up using an OPTICAL cable connection.
NOTES:
• When you make this connection, set the COMPONENT/S-VIDEO selector switch to S-VIDEO position.
• When connecting to a TV using the VIDEO or S-VIDEO jack, make sure that the PROGRESSIVE indicator on the display
window is not lit. If it is lit, the VIDEO and S-VIDEO outputs do not feed the correct signals and you cannot see any picture. To
turn off the PROGRESSIVE indicator, make the Progressive scanning mode inactive (see page 34).
INPUT SELECTION
For your Audio/Video components to recognize this connection, you must enter the menu of each device and set the proper
input. For instructions on how to set the proper input selection for your other A/V components, refer to the owner's manual of
the connected equipment.
Connecting the DVD portion of the Citizen JDVD3825PB using
component video and rca audio (red & white) cables
Component Video connections offer the best quality picture available. If your A/V equipment supports this type of connec-
tion, it is highly recommended that this connection be utilized. You must still connect an audio cable as well, as Component
Video cables are "video-only" connectors.
If your A/V equipment does not support either Optical or Digital Coax connections, use RCA Audio (Red and White) cables
to connect the DVD players Audio signal.
NOTE:
When you make this connection, set the COMPONENT/S-VIDEO selector switch to COMPONENT position.
