What is MP3?
MP3, short for MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3, MPEG-2 Audio Layer 3 LSF (Low Sampling Frequency), is a standard for compress-
ing digital video data adopted for video CDs and similar media. It is one of the audio compression systems covered by
MPEG's (Motion Picture Experts Group) digital audio compression standards. What it does is reduce the number of bytes
in a song without detracting from the sound quality by eliminating big sound waves within the sound range that are imper-
ceptible to the human ear. This compression allows you to reduce the contents of a conventional music CD by a factor of
around 10. This means that you can record the contents of 10 music CDs on a single CD-R or CD-RW. (The figures refer
to data recorded on a 650 MB CD-R or CD-RW at a fixed bit rate of 128 kbps and a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz.)

tered ID code and keep it in a
secure location. If you forget it,
you will be unable to use the
unit. In case you forget the ID
code, please consult your near-
est Panasonic Servicenter.
Note: The calendar is not editable.

Prior to operating this unit, it is advis-
able to assign a 4-digit ID code for
security.
(Make sure to use four digits for ID
code.)
Once the ID code has been set, the unit
cannot be operated if the main power
supply is disconnected then re-con-
nected. It is electronically locked so
that a thief can not use the stolen unit
unless that person knows the code you
have set.
The ID code operation must be per-
formed only by the person to whom
the unit belongs.
How to set your ID code (for the first time)
Enter an 4 digit ID code.
w Enter the same 4 digit ID code again.
How to change your ID code

■ Without a Wiping Cloth
Notes on CD-Rs/RWs
When the unit is dirty, wipe with a well-wrung cloth dipped in liquid dishwashing detergent (neutral) diluted with water
and then go over the same surface with a dry cloth.
¡You may have trouble playing back some CD-R/RW discs recorded on CD recorders (CD-R/RW drives), either due to
their recording characteristics or dirt, fingerprints, scratches, etc. on the disc surface.
¡CD-R/RW discs are less resistant to high temperatures and high humidity than ordinary music CDs. Leaving them inside
a car for extended periods may damage them and make playback impossible.
(Since there is the possibility of water drops getting inside of the unit, do not directly apply cleanser to the surface.)
Note: Do not scratch the screen with your nails or other hard objects. The resulting scratches or marks will obscure the
image.
¡The unit may not successfully play back a CD-R/RW that was made by the combination of writing software, a CD
recorder (CD-R/RW drive) and a disc if that are incompatible with one another.
¡This player cannot play CD-R/RW discs if the session is not closed.
¡This player cannot play CD-R/RW discs which contain other than CD-DA or MP3 data (Video CD, etc.).
¡Be sure to observe the handling instructions of CD-R/RW discs.
Caution: If water drops or similar wet substances get inside the monitor, it may cause a malfunction.
Product Servicing
If the suggestions in the charts do not solve the problem, we recommend that you take it to your nearest authorized
Panasonic Servicenter. The product should be serviced only by a qualified technician.
Replacing the Fuse
Use fuses of the same specified rating (5 A for display unit, 15 A for hide-away unit). Using different substitutes or fuses
with higher rating, or connecting the product directly without a fuse, could cause a fire or damage to this unit.
If the replacement fuse fails, contact your nearest Panasonic Servicenter for service.

Digital audio output connector (Optical)
Dolby Surround encoded. On encoded material such
as movie soundtracks, the sound is more like Dolby
Digital 5.1 (see above), while on unencoded stereo
material such as music CDs the effect is a wider, more
involving soundfield. Among other improvements over
Pro Logic, Pro Logic II provides two full-range sur-
round channels, as opposed to Pro Logic’s single, lim-
ited-bandwidth surround channel.
LPCM (Linear PCM audio)
The digital audio output connector (optical) converts
electrical signals into optical signals and transfers
them to the amplifier. Consequently, it has a number
of features including its immunity from electrical inter-
ference from external sources and its ability to prevent
the generation of noise and its minimal effect on the
external environment. This function is provided only
with CQ-VD7500U
In this format, the audio signal is converted to digital
data and recorded in two channels without compres-
sion. Because the capacity of a DVD video disc is
large, it can store more data with better accuracy than
a CD.

MPEG4
MPEG4 (ASF) is an audio/video format for the online
streaming proposed by Microsoft Corporation. This format
allows you to treat audio/video data easily on your personal
computer.
Manufactured under license from Dolby
Laboratories. “Dolby”, “Pro Logic”, and the
double-D symbol are trademarks of Dolby
Laboratories.
Dolby Digital
This fully discrete format divides the music signals
into 5.1 channels: Front Left (L), Front Right (R),
Center (C), Left Surround (LS), Right Surround (RS)
and Subwoofer (SW: 0.1 channel) for recording and
playback. The number of channels that are recorded
depends on the software (1 to 5.1 channels).
Generally, ASF files are so light that they can be stored on
comparatively small-capacity media such as SD memory
card because they are made for online streaming.
dts
This format requires more data than Dolby Digital, and
provides higher quality surround playback.
Similar to Dolby Digital, this fully discrete format
divides the music signals into 5.1 channels: Front Left
(L), Front Right (R), Center (C), Left Surround (LS),
Right Surround (RS) and Subwoofer (SW: 0.1 chan-
nel) for recording and playback.
Playback control (Video CD)
If the Video CD has “With Playback Control” or some-
thing similar written on the disc surface or on the
jacket, the scenes or information to be viewed (or lis-
tened to) can be selected interactively by using the
menu shown on the screen.
In these instructions, playback using the menu screen
is referred to as “menu play” for video CDs. This play-
er supports Video CDs with playback control.
Dolby Digital 5.1
Dolby Digital 5.1 is a method of transmitting and stor-
ing 5.1-channel soundtracks via newer digital media
such as DVD, digital cable, digital broadcast TV (DTV),
and satellite transmissions. Unlike the Dolby Surround
encode/Pro Logic decode process, which sacrifices
channel separation to get surround onto any stereo
soundtrack, Dolby Digital 5.1 is a discrete system that
keeps the multiple channels fully separated through-
out the encoding and decoding processes. In addition
to having full-range Left (L), Center (C), Right (R), Left
Surround (LR), and Right Surround (RS) channels,
Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtracks carry a sixth (“.1”)
channel (Subwoofer) recorded with low-frequency
effects (those bass rumbles and booms you feel as
well as hear in a well-equipped cinema).
“DTS” and “DTS Digital Surround” are registered
trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.
“DTS” and “DTS 2.0” are trademarks of Digital
Theater Systems, Inc.
Title, Chapter (DVD)
DVDs are divided into large sections (titles) and/or
small sections (chapters). Each section is numbered;
these numbers are called “Title number” or “Chapter
number”.
G.726
G.726 is a sound data standard of compression/expansion
recommended by CCITT (Consultative Committee for
International Telephony and Telegraphy). Applying this
standard, the PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) sound data
can be compressed or expanded effectively.
The applied software is mainly used for digital telephones,
digital voice recorders, digital camcorders and so on.

Dolby Pro Logic
This format records signals from four channels [Front
Left (L), Front Right (R), Center (C), and Monaural
Surround (S)] in two channels, decodes those chan-
nels through a Dolby Pro Logic decoder, and then out-
puts the resulting signals in four channels.
