The stereo sound is send through the red and white RCA plugs and the video signal is sent through the yellow RCA plug. Look at the back of your television and find the same color RCA sockets. Then connector all three RCA plugs into the RCA sockets matching the same color coordination, so for example the red RCA plug will go into the red RCA socket and so on........

2) Then on the other end of the Nokia CA-75U AV TV output video cable you will find 3.5mm jack, similar looking to what you find on your pair of headphones. Get this jack and connect it directly into the 3.5mm socket found at the top left hand side on your Nokia N8.
