Region Codes
This System has a Region One (1) DVD Player. DVDs must be labeled for ALL regions or for Region 1 in order
to play on the DVD Player.You cannot play DVDs that are labeled for other regions. Look for the symbols
below on your DVDs. If these region symbols do not appear on your DVD, you cannot play the DVD in this
DVD Player.
The number inside the globe refers to a region of the world. Region 1 represents the United States, Canada,
upper regions of North America, Bermuda, the U.S.Virgin Islands, and small regions near Australia.
A DVD labelled for a specific region can only play on DVD Players with the same region code.
Color Systems
DVDs are recorded in different color systems throughout the world.The most common color systems are
NTSC (which is used primarily in the United States and North America), PAL, and SECAM.
This DVD Player uses NTSC, so DVDs you play must be recorded in the NTSC system.You cannot play DVDs
recorded in other formats.The color system of the DVD may be listed on the DVD or on the Disc case.
PlayableVideo Cassettes
TheVCR of this System has a High Quality (HQ) system and is compatible with existingVideo Home System
(VHS) equipment. Use only video cassettes that have the
mark.The use of other tapes may result in poor
picture quality and excessive deposits on the video heads, which may not be covered by the warranty if damage
occurs.
TheVCR also has a 19 micron head, which provides a better picture when you view tapes recorded in slow
speed (SLP).

Hookups 7
Determining the best possible connection...
Your hookup will be determined by your existing equipment, especially yourTV.These guidelines describe which
options have the best picture (video) and sound (audio) quality.You will not use all the jacks on the System.
If yourTV only has an RF-style jack, usually labelled Antenna In, RF In, or 75 ohm, use the
System’sTV ANTENNA OUT jack to connect to theTV. This hookup provides both audio and
video in a single cable. Set yourTV to channel 3 or 4 - the output channel of the System.This
connection allows you to use both the DVD andVCR features. Details are on page eight.
If yourTV has ComponentVideo In jacks (which could be labelledY Cr Cb,Y Pr Pb, orYUV and may
be green, blue, and red), use the COMPONENTVIDEO OUT jacks (Y Pb/Cb Pr/Cr) for the best
picture quality.
If you use only this video connection, only the DVD picture will be available.To see DVD features on
theTV, set theTV to its ComponentVideo In channel. Details are on page 12.
If yourTV has an S-Video In jack (which may be labelledY/C or S-VHS), use the S-VIDEO OUT jack
for excellent picture quality. If you use only this video connection, only the DVD picture will be
available.To see DVD features on theTV, set theTV to its S-Video In channel. Details are on page 13.
If yourTV has a single yellowVideo In jack (which may be labelled CVBS, Composite, or baseband),
use the yellow VIDEO (DVD/VCR OUT) jack for good picture quality.This connection provides a
picture for both the DVD Player and theVCR. Set theTV to itsVideo In channel.
Details are on page 11.
If you have a Stereo with a Coaxial Digital Audio In jack, this provides the clearest sound for the
DVD Player. Connect the System’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT COAXIAL jack to your Stereo. If you use
only this audio connection, only Disc sound (noVCR) will be available. Details are on page 15.
If digital audio connections are not possible, connect the System’s red and white AUDIO (DVD/VCR
OUT) jacks to the Audio In jacks of your Stereo orTV. This provides sound for both the DVD
Player and theVCR. Details are on pages 11-14.
Before you begin...
G Refer to the manuals of yourTV, Cable Box, Stereo, or other devices as necessary. Note the style of jacks
and connectors on the other equipment. Determine how to choose different Audio andVideo In channels on
your other equipment so you can see and hear the System playing on theTV, Stereo, etc.
G Disconnect all equipment from the power outlets. Connect the equipment to the power outlets only after
you have finished hooking up everything. Never make or change connections with equipment connected to
the power outlet.
Remember...
G Set theTV to the correctVideo In channel. Such channels may be called AUX or AUXILIARY IN,
AUDIO/VIDEO or A/V IN, EXT1 or External In, etc.These channels often are located near channel zero. See
yourTV owner’s manual for details. If you do not see the DVD orVCR playback on theTV, go to the lowest
TV channel (01 or 02) and change channels downward until you see the DVD orVCR picture on theTV. Or,
if yourTV has only a single Antenna In jack and you are using the RF coaxial cable (as described on page
eight), set theTV to channel 3 or 4.
To find the right Audio/Video In channel, turn on the System. Press DVD to put the System in DVD mode.
With no Disc in the Player, a large DVD logo will appear on theTV screen when you get theTV on the
correct Audio/Video In channel or channel 3 or 4.
G Set a separate Stereo (if applicable) to the correct channel or “source” mode.
G Depending on your connection, you may need to purchase additional cables or adaptors.
G To use theVCR features, you must include a connection with the supplied yellow video cable
and red/white audio cables or with the supplied RF coaxial cable.
Once you determine the best option, find your choice on pages 8-15. Follow the specific steps for
the hookup you choose.

Set yourTV to channel 3 or 4. The System’s output channel is 3 when you purchase it. So, set
your TV to channel 3 when the System is new.
If you cannot use channel 3 at your TV, you can change the System’s output channel to channel 4.To
do so, press theVCR button to put the System inVCR mode.The redVCR light will be on the front
of the System. Insert a videotape and press PLAY B to start playback. (You cannot change the
System’s output channel when you adjust the tracking manually. In this case, press STOP C to stop
the playback once.Then, press PLAY B to start playback again.)
During playback, press and hold the (VCR) PLAY B button on the front of the System
for three to five seconds. Each time you do this, the System’s output channel switches between 3
and 4. Change your TV to channel 3 or 4 accordingly.
There is not a channel 3/4 switch on the System (as customary with mostVCRs).
If you have not turned on the System already, go to page 19 to complete theVCR’s
First-Time Setup. This process sets up the TV channels and the language for theVCR menu.

Multi-ChannelTelevision Sound 47
Your System can play tapes recorded in Hi-Fi (high fidelity) stereo,
which produces a crisp, clear sound from the left and right audio
channels.Your System also can play tapes recorded in a second audio
(usually, that means your program is recorded in a second language).
Of course, your System will play tapes recorded in monaural (single-
source) sound as well.
Your System also will record a video cassette in Hi-Fi stereo or in
second audio, so when you play that tape on the System, it will be in
stereo or second audio.
Read the directions on this page to familiarize yourself with the
stereo and second audio setups. Follow the directions below to
record in stereo or second audio. Follow the directions on page 48

Dolby Pro Logic: Dolby Pro Logic is a decoding technology
that can be used to decode two channel material. Dolby Pro
Logic decoding of two channel sources yields 4 output channels.
These are : Left, Center, Right and a mono Surround channel.
DTS (DigitalTheater System): Developed by Digital
Theater Systems, Inc., of the United States. Sound is
compressed to reduce its recording size. Since the
compression level is less than Dolby Digital, the quantity of
data is greater when decoded, providing clarity and depth in
the sound.The sound has a wider dynamic range and higher
resolution.
