What to do

For most televisions

1. Look for component inputs on your TV. These connections have a row of five differently-colored inputs (green, blue, and red for video, white and red for audio). If you have more than one set of component inputs, it's the first set that generally works with standard AV cables. Look for a set that has a green input with yellow around it, or the word video just above or below it.
2. Plug the yellow end of the Wii A/V cable into this green Y input. Plug the white end into the audio L and the red into the audio R. Leave the blue and second red holes open.

3. Turn on your Wii console and set your television to the input select being used.
4. If you are seeing the image from the Wii in black and white, try the following to get the image in color:
   • Cycle through your television's input channels (usually with the Input Select or Source button on your TV's remote control) to find the input select that has the image in color.
   • If you're only finding the image in black and white, you may need to switch the setting of the input select from a component signal to a standard AV signal. This can be done by:
     • An on screen menu option. This is often accessed by using the Menu Button on the remote.
     • A button on the remote that switches between the standard and component signals. These can be labeled such things as AV or Video.

For a Sharp Aquos Quattron (4-Color) TV

• Some models of Sharp Aquos Quattron televisions have a mini-plug (headphone jack) input for the standard AV cable connection. There are two ways to connect the Wii console to these TVs:
  • Purchase an adapter which allows standard AV cables to be connected to the mini-plug (headphone jack) port on the back of the TV. This is typically available through the manufacturer's website.
  • As an alternative, it is possible to purchase component cables for the Wii console.
