Instructions
Using the iPod AV Cable

2. Connect the AV cable into your iPod. Plug the small end into the iPod where the earbuds would go.
3. Connect the red RCA plug. This goes into the right audio input of the television or VCR. The colors should match.
4. Connect the white RCA plug. This plugs into the left audio input of your TV. Connect the yellow RCA plug. This goes into the video input of your TV.
5. Begin playing a video on the iPod.
Using the iPod Dock
6. Find the right input on your TV. First, try channel 3 or 4. Next, find an "Input" or "Video" button on your TV or remote and scroll through the options until the video appears.
7. Use the Apple universal iPod dock. This lets you use S-video for a slightly better picture. Place the iPod in the dock.
8. Connect the S-video cable to the S-video Out port on the dock. Connect the other end of the S-video cable to the S-video Input on the TV.
9. Connect the AV cable to the Line Out port on the dock. Follow steps 3 through 5 to complete the connection.
