Connecting audio for your TV sound
You should make this connection if you:
• Change channels using your TV remote while viewing TV programs or cable that is !
connected directly to your TV (with no cable box).
• Connect the audio from other components, like a camcorder or game console, directly to
your TV.
You do not need this connection if you:
• Use a set-top box (a cable box, for example) for TV viewing and changing channels, instead
of your TV controls.
• Do not connect the audio from other components directly to your TV.
