Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the connection, insert the camera-specific connector into the dedicated AV port on your compatible Canon EOS camera. Connect the yellow RCA plug to the Video In port on your television and the red and white plugs into the corresponding Left/Right Audio In ports. Always verify that your display is set to the correct 'AV' or 'Composite' input mode. To maintain the cable, avoid bending the cord at sharp angles near the connectors, and store it in a cool, dry place to prevent oxidation of the metal plugs.
