PlayStation®2 30000 - 50000 Series / Installation

Installing Using an AV cable

To install your PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system using an AV cable (integrated audio/video):

  1. Connect the cables

    Connect the flat end of the AV cable to the AV MULTI OUT connector on the back of your PlayStation®2.


  • Connect the plugs on the other end of the AV cable to the audio and video inputs on the back of your TV or VCR, matching colors. If there is no red input on your TV or VCR, let the red plug dangle. Make sure the connections are secure.

    NOTE: Some TV inputs are not color-coded correctly, if this is the case, plug the yellow plug into the VIDEO IN input, the white plug into the AUDIO IN Left input, and the red plug into the AUDIO IN Right input. If there is no input for the red plug, let it dangle.



  • Connect the AC power cord to the PlayStation®2 system and plug it into a working electrical outlet.


  1. Start the system

    Turn on your PlayStation®2 by pressing the MAIN POWER switch on the back of the system.


  • Press the standby/RESET button on the front of the system. Make sure the indicator light turns green.


  • Press the open button, place a PlayStation®2 disc in the tray, and press the open button again to close the tray.


  1. Set up the TV

    Turn on your TV.


  • Press the TV/Video button on your TV�s remote control. The TV/Video button might also be called the Input, AUX, or Line button on your remote. Use the setting you would if you were going to watch a movie.

    Tune the TV channel to the one you usually use to watch movies from your VCR. Usually either channel 3 or 4.
