Introduction

Notes on handling

Important cautions

Installation of the unit

Safety precautions

Avoid moisture, water and dust

• Select a place which is level, dry and neither too hot

nor too cold (between 5^oC and 35^oC, 41^oF and 95^oF).

• Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.

• Do not use the player in a place subject to vibrations.

Do not place the unit in moist or dusty places.

Avoid high temperatures

Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or place it near

a heating device.

Power cord

When you’re away

When away on travel or otherwise for an extended

period of time, remove the plug from the wall outlet.

• Do not handle the power cord with wet hands!

• A small amount of power (2.7 W) is always consumed

while the power cord is connected to the wall outlet.

always pull the plug, not the power cord.

Do not insert foreign objects into the unit

Do not insert wires, hairpins, coins, etc. into the unit.

• There are no user-serviceable parts inside. If anything

goes wrong, unplug the power cord and consult your

dealer.

Care of the cabinet

• Do not insert any metallic object into the unit.

• Do not use any non-standard shape disc available on

the market, because it may damage the unit.

• Do not use a disc with tape, seals, or paste on it,

because damage to the unit may result.

When cleaning the unit, use a soft cloth and follow the

relevant instructions on the use of chemically-coated

cloths. Do not use benzene, thinner or other organic

solvents and disinfectants. These may cause

deformation or discoloring.

About discs

Playable disc types

Playable and non-playable disc types are as follows:

Playable discs

DVD VIDEO

Video CD

SVCD

Audio CD

MP3 CD

CD-R/CD-RW with

Audio CD or MP3

format

VIDEO CD

The DVD VIDEO Logo is a trademark.

• CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded with the Audio CD or MP3 format can be played back, though some may not be played

back because of the disc characteristics or recording condition.

• DVD VIDEO players and DVD discs have their own Region Code numbers. This unit only can play back DVD VIDEO

discs whose Region Code numbers include “2.”

Examples of playable DVD VIDEO discs:

1 2

3 4

1 2 3

4 5 6

ALL

2 5

Non-playable discs

DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, DVD AUDIO, DVD-R, DVD-RW, CD-ROM, PHOTO CD, CD-EXTRA, CD-G, CD-TEXT

• Playing back discs listed as “Non-playable discs” above may generate noise and damage speakers.

• This unit can play back audio recorded in CD-G, CD-EXTRA and CD-TEXT discs.

Disc structure

A DVD VIDEO disc is comprised of “titles,” while an Audio CD, Video CD or SVCD is comprised of “tracks”. Each title may

be divided into some “chapters”. For example, if a DVD VIDEO disc contains some movies, each movie may have its own

title number, and each movie may be divided into some chapters. In a DVD VIDEO karaoke disc, each song usually has its

own title number and does not have chapters. In general, each title has independent content, while each chapter in the

same title has continuity.

For the MP3 CD disc structure, see page 36.

Connect the unit to a TV equipped with stereo audio input and video input jacks using the supplied audio/video cables.

• If your TV has a monaural audio input instead of stereo, you need to use an optional audio cable which converts stereo

audio output to monaural.

• If your TV has an S-video input, you should connect it with the S-VIDEO output of the unit using the S-video cable

(optional) in addition to the (standard) video connection to get better picture quality.

The unit is compatible with the PAL and NTSC systems, Set the VIDEO OUT SELECT switch on the rear panel to match the

color system of your TV. Make sure that the color system of a DVD VIDEO/Video CD/SVCD disc labeled on the package

matches your TV.

If you use a multi-system TV, you can play discs recorded on both PAL and NTSC systems by setting the VIDEO OUT

SELECT switch appropriately. However, note that you must change the switch position while the unit power is off (on

standby). Otherwise, the changed setting is not effective.

NOTE

• Connect VIDEO OUT of the unit directly to the video input of your TV. Connecting VIDEO OUT of the unit to a TV via a VCR may

cause a monitor problem when playing back a copy-protected disc.

To connect to audio equipment with a digital input

You can enhance the sound quality by connecting either of the unit's DIGITAL OUT jacks (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) to the

digital input of an amplifier, MD, etc. by using an optional digital cable. The digital audio signal from a disc is directly

transferred. If you connect the unit to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder or an amplifier with a built-in decoder by using an

optional digital cable, you can enjoy high-quality surround sound.

When you make the digital connection, we recommend also to make the analog connection, because, depending on

discs, no signal may be output from the DIGITAL OUT.

MP3 CD playback

This unit can palyback CD discs recorded by the MP3 format

(we refer to those discs as MP3 CD discs in this manual).

Operations for MP3 CD discs are similar to those for

Audio CD discs, though there are some restrictions and

differences.

Unavailable functions

As described earlier, there are some resrictions for

playback of MP3 CD discs. Following functions are not

available with MP3 CD discs.

What is MP3?

MP3 is the abbreviation of “MPEG1 Audio Layer 3”.

MPEG Audio is a compression specification that

compresses the audio portion only. This image

compression method is used in DVD or Video CD, etc.

The audio data has been compressed into about 1/10.

NOTES

• The unit does not provide the DTS decoding function.

• When playing a DVD VIDEO or Audio CD disc with DTS,

use a DTS decoder to get correct signals from your

which output incorrect signals that may damage your

speakers.

• If you connect the analog outputs and digital outputs

simultaneously, be sure to select the source of the

amplifier correctly, or set the level control of the

amplifier connected to the analog outputs to minimum.

Care and handling of discs

How to handle discs

When handling a disc, do not touch the surface of the disc. Since discs are made of plastic, they are easily damaged. If a

disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped, the images and sound will not be picked up correctly, and such a disc may

cause the player to malfunction.

Label side

Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesive on its surface.

Storage

Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled on top of one another without their protective cases, they

can be damaged. Do not put discs in a location where they may be exposed to direct sunlight, or in a place where the

humidity or temperature is high. Avoid leaving discs in your car!

Maintenance of discs

If there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc, wipe with a soft dry cloth, moving from the center outwards.

If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a cloth moistened with water. Never use record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any

anti-static agents.

CAUTION

Sometimes during play noise or images may be garbled. This is sometimes due to the disc. (It may not be up to

industry standards.)

These symptoms are caused by the discs, not by the malfunction of the unit.
