Notes on MP3
❐ What is MP3?
E
N
G
L
I
S
H
MP3 (MPEG audio layer 3) is the compression format of digital audio. It is developed by MPEG (Motion
Picture Experts Group). Using this compression format, you can record the contents of about 10 music CDs
on a single CD media. (This 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.)
Note:
≥ MP3 encoding and writing software are not supplied with this product.
≥ CD writing software is not supplied with this product.
23
❐ Points to remember when making MP3 files
≥ High bit rate and high sampling frequency are
recommended for high quality sounds.
≥ It is recommended to set the bit rate to “128 kbps
or more” and “fixed”.
≥ Selecting VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not recom-
mended because playing time is not displayed
properly and sound may be skipped.
≥ The playback sound quality differs depending on
the encoding circumstances. For details, refer to
the user manual of your own encoding software
and writing software.
Caution:
≥ Never assign the “.mp3” file name extension to a file that is not in the MP3 format. This may not only
produce noise from the speaker damage, but also damage your hearing.

Definition of Terms
Digital audio output connector (Optical)
MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group)
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
interference from external sources and its ability to
prevent the generation of noise and its minimal effect
on the external environment.
MPEG is an international standard format for the
compression of motion video as defined by the
Moving Picture Experts Group, a working
committee which functions under the auspices of
the International Standardization Organization and
International Electrotechnical Commission. The
Group established the MPEG 1 standard in 1991
and the MPEG 2 standard in 1994. MPEG 2 builds
on MPEG 1 with many improvements, and it yields
a higher picture quality level.

Pan & Scan screen
Supporting 5.1-channel surround sound, as well as
stereo (2-channel) sound, this technique enables a
large quantity of sound data to be efficiently record-
ed on a disc.
This refers to a screen on which the playback
picture of wide-screen DVDs or Video CDs is cut off
at the left and right sides.

Laboratories. “Dolby” and the double-D sym-
bol are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories.

Playback control (Video CD)
If the Video CD has “With Playback Control” or
others written on the disc surface or on the jacket,
the scenes or information to be viewed (or listened
to) can be selected interactively with the screen by
looking at the menu shown on the screen.
In these instructions, playback using the menu
screen is referred to as the “menu play” for video
CDs. This player supports Video CDs with playback
control.
Interactive DVD
An interactive DVD is DVD software which includes
multiple angles, multiple plot endings, etc.
Letterbox screen
This refers to a screen on which the playback picture
of wide-screen DVDs or Video CDs appears with
black bands running along the top and bottom.
Title, Chapter (DVD)
DVDs are divided into some large sections (titles)
or some small sections (chapters). Each section is
numbered; these numbers are called “Title number”
or “Chapter number”.

Chapter 1
This refers to a signal recording format used in
CDs. While CDs are recorded in 44.1 kHz/16 bit,
DVDs are recorded in 48 kHz/16 bit up to 96 kHz/
24 bit, thus achieving higher quality audio than that
of CDs.
Track (Video CD/CD)
Video CDs or CDs are divided into some sections
(tracks). Each section is numbered; these numbers

❐ Overview
This product should be installed by a professional.
However, if you plan to install this product yourself,
your first step is to decide where to install it. The
instructions in these pages will guide you through
the remaining steps:
(Please refer to the “WARNING” statement above.)
≥ Identify and label the car wires.
≥ Connect the car wires to the wires of the power
connector.
≥ Check the operation of the product.
If you encounter problems, please consult your
nearest professional installer.

Installation Guide (continued)
If your car has a radio or is pre-wired for one:
❐ Identify all leads
The first step in installation is to identify all the car
wires you’ll use when hooking up your sound
system.
As you identify each wire, we suggest that you label
it using masking tape and a permanent marker.
This will help avoid confusion when making
connections later.
With the ignition and headlights off, identify the car
battery lead by grounding one lead of the test bulb
to the chassis and checking the remaining exposed
wires from the cut radio connector plug.

If your car is not wired for an audio unit:
Go to the fuse block and find the fuse port for the
battery which is usually marked BAT.
29
Note:
❐ Connect all leads
≥ Do not connect the power connector to the product
until you have made all connections. If there are no
plastic caps on the stereo hooking wires, insulate all
exposed leads with electrical tape until you are ready
to use them. Identify the leads in the following order.
Now that you have identified all the wires in the car,
you’re ready to begin connecting them to the DVD
player wires. The wiring diagram (page 40) shows
the proper connections and color coding of the
leads.
We strongly recommend that you test the unit
before making a final installation.
You can set the unit on the floor and make tempo-
rary connections to test the unit. Use electrical tape
to cover all exposed wires.
Power Lead
If your car has a radio or is pre-wired for one:
Cut the connector wires one at a time from the plug
(leaving the leads as long as possible) so that you
can work with individual leads.
Important:
≥ Connect the red power lead last, after you have
made and insulated all other connections.
Turn the ignition on to the accessory position, and
ground one lead of the test bulb to the chassis.
Ground
Connect the black ground lead of the power
connector to the metal car chassis.
Touch the other lead of the test bulb to each of the
exposed wires from the cut radio connector plug.
Touch one wire at a time until you find the outlet
that causes the test bulb to light.
Battery
Connect the yellow battery lead to the correct radio
wire or to the battery fuse port on the fuse block.
Now turn the ignition off and then on. If the bulb
also turns off and on, that outlet is the car power
lead.
Power
Connect the red power lead to the correct power
cord according to your system configuration by
referring to the wiring diagram.
If the player functions properly with all these con-
nections made, disconnect the wires and proceed
to the final installation.
If your car is not wired for an audio unit:
Go to the fuse block and find the fuse port for radio
(RADIO), accessory (ACC), or ignition (IGN).
Battery Lead
If your DVD player has a yellow lead, you will need
to locate the car’s battery lead. Otherwise you may
ignore this procedure. (The yellow battery lead
provides continuous power to maintain a clock,
memory storage, or other function.)

❐ Final installation
Lead Connections
Connect all wires, making sure that each
connection is insulated and secure. Bundle all loose
wires and fasten them with tape so they won’t fall
down later.

Caution:
≥ All other installation methods required the
use of dedicated metal fittings. Consult with
a qualified servicing engineer or your dealer
if other methods are required.
≥ When drilling holes in the car, make sure
that you do not damage any pipes or wiring
on the underside of the car.
Caution:
≥ Do not disconnect the battery terminals of a car
with a trip or navigational computer since all
user settings stored in memory will be lost.
Instead take extra care with installing the unit to
prevent shorts.
≥ When installing the product, make sure that
the cord is positioned in a location where it
will not pinched or damaged when the seat
slides forward or backward.
