of DVDs and VIDEO CDs  
This product is designed to play back discs that  
conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard.  
Recently, various music discs encoded with

among those discs, there are some that do not  
conform to the CD standard and may not be  
playable by this product.  
Some playback operations of DVDs and VIDEO  
CDs may be intentionally set by software  
producers. Since this system plays DVDs and  
VIDEO CDs according to the disc contents the  
software producers designed, some playback  
features may not be available. Also, refer to the  
instructions supplied with the DVDs or VIDEO  
CDs.

(–)  
Note  
• Do not catch the speaker cord insulation in the SPEAKER jack.  
To avoid short-circuiting the speakers  
Short-circuiting of the speakers may damage the system. To prevent this, be sure to follow these  
precautions when connecting the speakers. Make sure the bare wire of each speaker cord does not touch  
another speaker terminal or the bare wire of another speaker cord, such as shown below.  
Stripped speaker cord is  
touching another speaker  
terminal.  
Stripped cords are touching each  
other due to excessive removal of  
insulation.  
After connecting all the components, speakers, and AC power cord (mains lead), output a test tone to  
check that all the speakers are connected correctly. For details on outputting a test tone, see page 76.  
If no sound is heard from a speaker while outputting a test tone, or a test tone is output from a speaker  
other than the one currently displayed on the Setup Display, the speaker may be short-circuited. If this  
happens, check the speaker connection again.  
Note  
• Be sure to match the speaker cord to the appropriate terminal on the components: 3 to 3, and # to #. If the cords  
are reversed, the sound will lack bass and may be distorted.

• Do not lean or hang on the speaker, as the speaker  
may fall down.  
Step 3: Positioning the  
System  
Tip  
• When you change the positions of the speakers, it is  
recommended that you change the settings. For  
Positioning the speakers  
For the best possible surround sound, all the  
speakers other than the subwoofer should be the  
same distance from the listening position (A).  
However, this system allows you to place the  
center speaker up to 1.6 meters (5 ft) closer (B)  
and the surround speakers up to 5.0 meters (16  
ft) closer (C) to the listening position.  
The front speakers can be placed from 1.0 to  
7.0 meters (3 to 23 ft) (A) from the listening  
position.  
Place speakers as illustrated below.  
Note  
• Do not set the speakers in an inclined position.  
• Do not place the speakers in locations that are:  
– Extremely hot or cold  
– Dusty or dirty  
– Very humid  
– Subject to vibrations  
– Subject to direct sunlight  
• Use caution when placing the speakers and/or  
speaker stands (not supplied) that are attached with  
the speakers on a specially treated (waxed, oiled,  
polished, etc.) floor, as staining or discoloration may  
result.  
• When cleaning, use a soft cloth such as a cleaning  
cloth for glasses.  
• Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring  
powder, or solvent such as alcohol or benzine.

– the TV is connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks.  
Normally select this under the above condition. This automatically detects the software type, and  
selects the appropriate conversion method.  
Note that the picture will not be clear or no picture will appear if you select these settings when  
either of the above conditions are not met.  
x P VIDEO (PROGRESSIVE VIDEO)  
Select this setting when:  
– your TV accepts progressive signals, and,  
– the TV is connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks, and,  
– you want to fix the conversion method to PROGRESSIVE VIDEO for video-based software.  
Select this if the image is not clear when you select PROGRESSIVE AUTO.  
Note that the picture will not be clear or no picture will appear if you select these settings when  
either of the above conditions are not met.  
x INTERLACE  
Select this setting when:  
– your TV does not accept progressive signals, or,  
– your TV is connected to jacks other than the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks (EURO AV  
T OUTPUT (TO TV)).  
About DVD software types and the conversion method  
DVD software can be divided into 2 types: film-based software and video-based software.  
Video-based software is derived from TV, such as dramas and sit-coms, and displays images at 30  
frames/60 fields per second. Film-based software is derived from film and displays images at 24 frames  
per second. Some DVD software contains both video and film.  
In order for these images to appear natural on your screen when output in progressive format, the  
progressive signals need to be converted to match the type of DVD software that you are watching.  
Note  
• When you play video-based software in progressive signal format, sections of some types of images may appear  
unnatural due to the conversion process when output through the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks. Even though  
you set to “PROGRESSIVE AUTO” or “PROGRESSIVE VIDEO,” images from the EURO AV T OUTPUT (TO  
TV) jack are unaffected as they are output in the interlace format.  
• If you set [LINE] in [SCREEN SETUP] to [RGB] (page 73), the system switches to “INTERLACE.” This will  
happen even though you select “PROGRESSIVE AUTO” or “PROGRESSIVE VIDEO.”  
• If you set [LINE] in [SCREEN SETUP] to [RGB] (page 73), the system outputs no component video signals.

Using the Radio Data  
System (RDS)  
What is the Radio Data  
System?  
The Radio Data System (RDS) is a broadcasting  
service that allows radio stations to send  
additional information along with the regular  
program signal. This tuner offers convenient  
RDS features, such as station name display.  
RDS is available only for FM stations.*  
Note  
• RDS may not work properly if the station you are  
tuned to is not transmitting the RDS signal properly,  
or if the signal strength is weak.  
* Not all FM stations provide RDS service, nor do  
they provide the same type of services. If you are not  
familiar with the RDS system, check with your local  
radio stations for details on RDS services in your  
area.  
Receiving RDS broadcasts  
Simply select a station from the FM band.  
When you tune in a station that provides RDS  
services, the station name* appears in the front  
panel display.  
* If an RDS broadcast is not received, the station  
name may not appear in the front panel display.

Additional Information  
Precautions  
On cleaning discs, disc/lens  
cleaner  
• Do not use a commercially available cleaning disc  
or disc/lens cleaner (wet or spray type). These may  
cause apparatus to malfunction.  
On power sources  
• AC power cord (mains lead) must be changed only at  
the qualified service shop.  
On your TV’s color  
• The unit is not disconnected from the AC power  
source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall  
outlet (mains), even if the unit itself has been turned  
off.  
• If the speakers should cause the TV screen to have  
color irregularity, turn off the TV then turn it on after  
15 to 30 minutes. If color irregularity should persist,  
place the speakers farther away from the set.  
On placement  
IMPORTANT NOTICE  
• Place the system in a location with adequate  
ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the system.  
• At high volume, over long periods of time, the cabinet  
becomes hot to the touch. This is not a malfunction.  
However, touching the cabinet should be avoided. Do  
not place the unit in a confined space where  
ventilation is poor as this may cause overheating.  
• Do not block the ventilation slots by putting anything  
on the system. The system is equipped with a high  
power amplifier. If the ventilation slots are blocked,  
the unit can overheat and malfunction.  
Caution: This system is capable of holding a still  
video image or on-screen display image on your  
television screen indefinitely. If you leave the still  
video image or on-screen display image displayed  
on your TV for an extended period of time you risk  
permanent damage to your television screen.  
Projection televisions are especially susceptible to  
this.  
The nameplate is located on the bottom exterior.  
On moving the system  
Before moving the system, make sure that there is no  
disc inserted, and remove the AC power cord (mains  
lead) from the wall outlet (mains).  
• Do not place the system on a soft surface such as a rug  
and do not block the ventilation holes.  
• Do not place the system in a location near heat  
sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,  
excessive dust, or mechanical shock.  
On operation  
• If the system is brought directly from a cold to a warm  
location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture  
may condense on the lenses inside the system. Should  
this occur, the system may not operate properly. In  
this case, remove the disc and leave the system turned  
on for about half an hour until the moisture  
evaporates.  
• When you move the system, take out any disc. If you  
don’t, the disc may be damaged.  
On adjusting volume  
• Do not turn up the volume while listening to a section  
with very low level inputs or no audio signals. If you  
do, the speakers may be damaged when a peak level  
section is suddenly played.  
On cleaning  
• Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a soft cloth  
slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do  
not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or  
solvent such as alcohol or benzine.

Notes about the Discs  
Troubleshooting  
If you experience any of the following  
difficulties while using the system, use this  
troubleshooting guide to help remedy the  
problem before requesting repairs. Should any  
problem persist, consult your nearest Sony  
dealer.  
On handling discs  
• To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its  
edge. Do not touch the surface.  
• Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.  
Note that if service personnel changes some  
parts during repair, these parts may be retained.  
Power  
The power is not turned on.  
• Check that the AC power cord (mains lead) is  
connected securely.  
• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or  
heat sources such as hot air ducts, or leave it in  
a car parked in direct sunlight as the  
temperature may rise considerably inside the  
car.  
If “PROTECTOR” and “PUSH POWER”  
appears alternately in the front panel display.  
Press "/1 to turn off the system, and check the  
following items after “STANDBY” disappears.  
• Are the + and – speaker cords short-circuited?  
• Are you using only the specified speakers?  
• Is anything blocking the ventilation holes of the  
system?  
• After playing, store the disc in its case.  
On cleaning  
• Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning  
cloth.  
Wipe the disc from the center out.  
After checking the above items and fixing any  
problems, turn on the system. If the cause of the  
problem cannot be found even after checking all the  
above items, consult your nearest Sony dealer.  
Picture  
There is no picture.  
• The SCART (EURO AV) cord is not connected  
securely.  
• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,  
commercially available cleaners, or anti-static  
spray intended for vinyl LPs.  
• The SCART (EURO AV) cord is damaged.  
• The system is not connected to the correct  
EURO AV t INPUT jack (page 12, 24).  
• The video input on the TV is not set so that you  
can view pictures from the system.  
This system can only play back a standard  
circular disc. Using neither standard nor circular  
discs (e.g., card, heart, or star shape) may cause  
a malfunction.  
• Check the output method on your system  
Do not use a disc that has a commercially  
available accessory attached, such as a label or  
ring.  
• You have set progressive format but your TV  
cannot accept the signal in progressive format. In  
this case, return the setting to interlace format (the  
default setting) (page 25).  
• Even if your TV is compatible with progressive  
format (525p/625p) signals, the image may be  
affected when you set progressive format. In this  
case, return the setting to interlace format (the  
default setting) (page 25).  
Picture noise appears.  
• The disc is dirty or flawed.

more precisely. To take full advantage of Dolby  
Surround Pro Logic, you should have one pair of  
surround speakers and a center speaker. The  
surround speakers output monaural sound.  
Chapter  
Subdivision of a title on a DVD. A title is  
composed of several chapters.  
Digital Cinema Auto Calibration  
Digital Cinema Auto Calibration was developed  
by Sony to automatically measure and adjusts  
the speaker settings to your listening  
environment in a short period of time.  
DivX®  
DTS  
Digital video technology created by DivX, Inc.  
Videos encoded with DivX technology are  
among the highest quality with a relatively small  
file size.  
Digital audio compression technology  
developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc. This  
technology conforms to 5.1-channel surround.  
This format comprises of stereo rear channel and  
there is discrete subwoofer channel in this  
format. DTS provides the same 5.1 discrete  
channels of high quality digital audio. The good  
channel separation is realized due to the all  
channel data being recorded discretely and  
processed in digitally.  
Dolby Digital  
This movie theater sound format is more  
advanced than Dolby Surround Pro Logic. In  
this format, the surround speakers output stereo  
sound with an expanded frequency range, and a  
subwoofer channel for deep bass is  
independently provided. This format is also  
called “5.1” with the subwoofer channel  
designed as the 0.1 channel (since it functions  
only when a deep bass effect is needed). All six  
channels in this format are recorded separately  
for superior channel separation. Furthermore,  
since all the signals are processed digitally, less  
signal degradation occurs.  
DVD  
A disc that contains up to 8 hours of moving  
pictures even though its diameter is the same as  
a CD.  
The data capacity of a single-layer and single-  
sided DVD, at 4.7 GB (Giga Byte), is 7 times  
that of a CD. Furthermore, the data capacity of a  
dual-layer and single-sided DVD is 8.5 GB, a  
single-layer and double-sided DVD 9.4 GB, and  
a dual-layer and double-sided DVD 17 GB.  
The picture data uses the MPEG 2 format, one of  
a worldwide standard of digital compression  
technology. The picture data is compressed to  
about 1/40 of its original size. The DVD also  
uses the variable rate coding technology that  
processes allocated data according to the status  
of the picture.  
Dolby Pro Logic II  
Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-bandwidth  
output channels from 2 channel sources. This is  
done using an advanced, high-purity matrix  
surround decoder that extracts the spatial  
properties of the original recording without  
adding any new sounds or tonal colorations.  
xMovie mode  
The Movie mode is for use with stereo television  
shows and all programs encoded in Dolby  
Surround. The result is enhanced soundfield  
directionality that approaches the quality of  
discrete 5.1-channel sound.  
The audio data is recorded in Dolby Digital as  
well as in PCM, allowing you to enjoy more  
realistic audio presence.  
Furthermore, various advanced functions such  
as the multi-angle, multilingual, and Parental  
continued

Control functions are provided with the DVD.  
By using menu screens recorded on VIDEO  
CDs with PBC functions, you can enjoy playing  
simple interactive programs, programs with  
search functions, and so on.  
DVD-RW  
A DVD-RW is a recordable and rewritable disc  
that is the same size as a DVD VIDEO. The  
DVD-RW has two different modes: VR mode  
and Video mode. DVD-RWs created in Video  
mode have the same format as a DVD VIDEO,  
while discs created in VR (Video Recording)  
mode allow the contents to be programmed or  
edited.  
Progressive format  
(sequential scanning)  
In contrast to the Interlace format, the  
progressive format can reproduce 50 - 60 frames  
per second by reproducing all scanning lines  
(525 lines for the NTSC system, 625 lines for the  
PAL system). The overall picture quality  
increases and still images, text and horizontal  
lines appear sharper. This format is compatible  
with the 525 or 625 progressive format.  
DVD+RW  
A DVD+RW (plus RW) is a recordable and  
rewritable disc. DVD+RWs use a recording  
format that is comparable to the DVD VIDEO  
format.  
Region Code  
This system is used to protect copyrights. A  
region number is allocated on each DVD system  
or DVD disc according to the sales region. Each  
region code is shown on the system as well as on  
the disc packaging. The system can play discs  
that match its region code. The system can also  
File  
A JPEG image recorded or a DivX video* on a  
DATA CD/DATA DVD. (“File” is an exclusive  
definition for this system.) A single file consists  
of a single image or movie.  
* DAV-DZ110/DZ410 only.  
ALL  
play discs with the “ ” mark. Even when the  
Film based software, Video based  
software  
region code is not shown on the DVD, the region  
limit may still apply.  
DVDs can be classified as Film based or Video  
based software. Film based DVDs contain the  
same images (24 frames per second) that are  
shown at movie theaters. Video based DVDs,  
such as television dramas or sit-coms, displays  
images at 30 frames (or 60 fields) per second.  
Scene  
On a VIDEO CD with PBC (playback control)  
functions, the menu screens, moving pictures  
and still pictures are divided into sections called  
“scenes.”  
Title  
Multi-angle function  
The longest section of a picture or music feature  
on a DVD, movie, etc., in video software, or the  
entire album in audio software.  
Various angles of a scene, or viewpoints of the  
video camera are recorded on some DVDs.  
Multilingual function  
Several languages for the sound or subtitles in a  
picture are recorded on some DVDs.  
Track  
Section of a picture or a music piece on a  
VIDEO CD, CD, or MP3. An album is  
composed of several tracks (MP3 only).  
Parental Control  
A function of the DVD to limit playback of the  
disc by the age of the users according to the  
limitation level in each country. The limitation  
varies from disc to disc; when it is activated,  
playback is completely prohibited, violent  
scenes are skipped or replaced with other scenes  
and so on.  
VIDEO CD  
A compact disc that contains moving pictures.  
The picture data uses the MPEG 1 format, one of  
a worldwide standard of digital compression  
technology. The picture data is compressed to  
about 1/140 of its original size. Consequently, a  
12 cm VIDEO CD can contain up to 74 minutes  
of moving pictures.  
Playback Control (PBC)  
Signals encoded on VIDEO CDs (Version 2.0)  
to control playback.  
VIDEO CDs also contain compact audio data.  
Sounds outside the range of human hearing are  
86GB  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
                           
compressed while sounds we can hear are not  
compressed. VIDEO CDs can hold 6 times the  
audio information of conventional audio CDs.  
There are 2 versions of VIDEO CDs.  
• Version 1.1: You can play only moving  
pictures and sounds.  
• Version 2.0: You can play high-resolution still  
pictures and enjoy PBC functions.  
This system conforms to both versions.
