Introduction — Playable discs  
Discs you can play  
Caution for DualDisc playback  
You can play back the following discs (12 cm  
and 8 cm) on this receiver:  
DVD Video: Recorded in PAL color system  
with Region Code 2(see below).  
DVD-R/DVD-RW recorded in the DVD-  
Video format can also be played.  
The Non-DVD side of a DualDiscdoes  
not comply with the Compact Disc Digital  
Audiostandard. Therefore, the use of Non-  
DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may  
not be recommended.  
Video CD (VCD)/audio CD  
Digital audio formats  
The System can play back the following digital  
audio formats.  
MP3/WMA/JPEG: Recorded either in CD-  
R/CD-RW or DVD-R/DVD-RW/DVD-ROM.  
CD-R/CD-RW: Compliant with ISO 9660  
Level 1, ISO 9660 Level 2, Romeo, and  
Joliet.  
Linear PCM: Uncompressed digital audio,  
the same format used for CDs and most studio  
masters.  
DVD-R/DVD-RW/DVD-ROM: Compliant  
with UDF-Bridge Format*1.  
Dolby Digital *2: Compressed digital audio,  
developed by Dolby Laboratories, which  
enables multi-channel encode to create the  
realistic surround sound.  
On some discs, the actual operations may be  
different from what is explained in this manual.  
Discs cannot be played back  
DTS *3 (Digital Theater Systems):  
DVD-Audio, DVD-ROM (data), DVD-RAM,  
DVD-R/DVD-RW recorded in the DVD-VR  
format, CD-ROM, CD-I (CD-I Ready), Photo  
CD, etc.  
Playing back these discs will generate noise  
and damage the speakers.  
Compressed digital audio, developed by Digital  
Theater Systems, Inc., which enables multi-  
channel like Dolby Digital. As the compression  
ratio is lower than for Dolby Digital, it provides  
wider dynamic range and better separation.  
MPEG Audio: Another compressed digital  
audio which also enables multi-channel encode  
to create the realistic surround sound. However,  
this System downmix the multi-channel signals  
into 2 channels (decoded PCM) and play it  
back.

DVD players and DVD Video discs have  
their own Region Code numbers. This  
receiver can only play back DVD discs  
whose Region Code numbers include 2.

Maintenance  
How to clean the connectors  
To keep discs clean  
Frequent detachment will deteriorate the  
connectors.  
A dirty disc may not play correctly.  
If a disc does become dirty, wipe  
it with a soft cloth in a straight line  
from center to edge.  
To minimize this possibility, periodically wipe  
the connectors with a cotton swab or cloth  
moistened with alcohol, being careful not to  
damage the connectors.  
Do not use any solvent (for example,  
conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner,  
benzine, etc.) to clean discs.  
To play new discs  
New discs may have some rough  
spots around the inner and outer  
edges. If such a disc is used, this  
receiver may reject the disc.  
Connector  
To remove these rough spots, rub the edges  
with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.  
Moisture condensation  
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the  
DVD/CD player in the following cases:  
After starting the heater in the car.  
If it becomes very humid inside the car.  
Should this occur, the DVD/CD player may  
malfunction. In this case, eject the disc and  
leave the receiver turned on for a few hours  
until the moisture evaporates.  
Do not use the following discs:  
Warped  
disc  
Sticker  
Sticker  
residue  
How to handle discs  
When removing a disc from  
Center holder  
its case, press down the center  
holder of the case and lift the  
disc out, holding it by the  
Stick-on  
label  
Disc  
edges.  
Always hold the disc by the edges. Do not  
touch its recording surface.  
When storing a disc into its case, gently insert  
the disc around the center holder (with the  
printed surface facing up).  
Make sure to store discs into the cases after  
use.

Tuner operations  
Storing stations in memory  
During SSM search....  
All previously stored stations are erased and  
stations are stored newly.  
Received stations are preset in No. 1  
(lowest frequency) to No. 6 (highest  
frequency).  
When SSM is over, the station stored in  
No. 1 will be automatically tuned in.  
When storing a station manually, a previously  
preset station is erased when a new station is  
stored in the same preset number.  
Playing a DVD-R/DVD-RW or CD-R/  
CD-RW  
Use only finalizeddiscs.  
This receiver can play back only the files of  
the same type which is first detected if a disc  
includes both audio CD (CD-DA) files and  
MP3/WMA files.  
This receiver can play back either MP3/WMA  
files or JPEG files if a disc includes both kind  
of files. Set the playback file type on AV  
setup menu (page 32) before playing back a  
disc containing both kind of files.  
FM RDS operations  
Network-Tracking Reception requires two  
types of RDS signalsPI (Programme  
Identification) and AF (Alternative  
Frequency) to work correctly. Without  
receiving these data correctly, Network-  
Tracking Reception will not operate.  
Only for CD-R/CD-RW: This receiver can  
play back multi-session discs; however,  
unclosed sessions will be skipped while  
playing.  
To be continued....

Some DVD-R/DVD-RW or CD-R/CD-RW  
may not play back on this receiver because  
of their disc characteristics, and for the  
following causes:

DVD-R/DVD-RW which are not written  
in UDF-Bridge Format (eg. UDF format or  
ISO format).  
There are improper recording conditions  
(missing data, etc.) or media conditions  
(stain, scratch, warp, etc.).  
DVD-RW/CD-RW may require a longer  
readout time since the reflectance of DVD-  
RW/CD-RW is lower than that of regular  
discs.  
Do not use the following DVD-R/DVD-RW  
or CD-R/CD-RW:  
Discs with stickers, labels, or protective seal  
stuck to the surface.  
Discs on which labels can be directly  
printed by an ink jet printer.  
Using these discs under high temperatures or  
high humidities may cause malfunctions or  
damages to discs.  
This receiver can recognize the total of  
1100 files, 250 folders (maximum of 999 files  
per folder).  
This receiver can play back the files recorded  
in VBR (variable bit rate).  
The files recorded in VBR have a discrepancy  
in elapsed time display, and do not show  
the actual elapsed time. Especially, after  
performing the search function, this difference  
becomes noticeable.  
This receiver cannot play back the following  
files:  
Playing an MP3/WMA disc  
This receiver can play back MP3/WMA files  
with the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma>  
(regardless of the letter caseupper/lower)  
recorded in either CD-R/CD-RW or in  
DVD-R/DVD-RW.

While playing (or pausing), you cannot  
change these languages.  
Playing a JPEG disc  
• It is recommended that you record a file  
at 640 x 480 resolution. (If a file has been  
recorded at a resolution of more than 640 x  
480, it will take a long time to be shown.)  
• This System can play only baseline JPEG  
files. Progressive JPEG files or lossless JPEG  
files cannot be played.  
Baseline JPEG format: Used for digital  
cameras, web, etc.  
Progressive JPEG format: Used for web.  
Lossless JPEG format: An old type and rarely  
used now.  
After you change any of these language  
settings, eject the disc and insert it (or another  
disc) again so that your setting takes effect.  
When you select 16:9for a picture whose  
aspect ratio is 4:3, the picture slightly changes  
due to the process for converting the picture  
width.  
Even if 4:3PS [PAN SCAN]is selected, the  
screen size may become  
4:3LB [LETTER BOX]with some DVDs.  
This depends on how they are recorded.  
• If progressive or lossless JPEG files are  
played back, a black screen appears. In this  
case, stop playback and select a baseline  
JPEG file. Note that it may take a long time to  
select another file.

Other main functions  
(without ejecting the disc).  
Next time you select “DISC” for the playback  
source (without activating Dual Zone), disc  
play starts automatically.  
If you try to assign a title to a 31st disc,  
Name Fullflashes on the monitor. Delete  
unwanted titles before assignment.  
Titles assigned to discs in the CD changer can  
also be shown if you play back the disc on the  
receiver.  
Ejecting a disc  
• If the ejected disc is not removed within  
15 seconds, the disc is automatically inserted  
again into the loading slot to prevent it from  
dust. (Disc will not play this time.)  
DAB tuner operations  
PTY Standby Reception works for the DAB  
tuner only using a Dynamic PTY, but not a  
Static PTY.  
DVD setup menu  
• When the language you have selected is not  
recorded on a disc, the original language is  
automatically used as the initial language. In  
addition, for some discs, the initial languages  
settings will not work as you set due to their  
internal disc programming.  
TA Standby Reception for FM RDS station  
and Road Traffic News Standby Reception for  
DAB cannot be set separately. The T/P button  
always work for the both Standby Reception  
modes when the DAB tuner is connected.

About sounds reproduced through the rear terminals  
Through the analog terminals (Speaker out/LINE OUT/2nd AUDIO OUT): 2-channel signal is  
emitted.  
When playing a multi-channel encoded disc, multi-channel signals are downmixed.  
(DOWN MIX: see page 33.)  
Through DIGITAL OUT (optical):  
Digital signals (Linear PCM, Dolby Digital, DTS, MPEG Audio) are emitted through this  
terminal. (For more details, see page 65.)  
To reproduce multi-channel sounds such as Dolby Digital, DTS, and MPEG Audio, connect  
an amplifier or a decoder compatible with these multi-channel sources to this terminal, and set  
DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT (D. AUDIO OUTPUT)correctly. (See page 33.)  
About Dual Zone  
While you are listening to the radio, CD changer, or external component through the speakers  
built into your car compartment, you can play back sound of this DVD/CD player connected to  
the 2nd AUDIO OUT plug at the same time. (For details, see page 40.)
