GENERAL INFORMATION  
Care and handling of  
compact discs  
How to handle CDs  
Which compact discs can be used?  
When handling a compact disc, do not touch the surface of the disc  
(reflective silver side –– the side without the label).  
Since compact discs are made of plastic, they are easily damaged. If  
a disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped, the sound will not be  
picked up correctly and, in addition, such a disc may cause the CD  
player to malfunction.  
Many types of compact discs are sold for a variety of uses. The player  
can play the following compact discs:  
SVCD (Super VCD) discs  
*Better video resolution using MPEG2 and VBR  
(Variable Bit Rate) technologies.  
*Up to four languages can be included as subtitles  
or song lyrics.  
*Up to four languages can be included as audio.  
Video CD discs both with and without PBC  
function  
PlayBack  
Control  
Care of the label side  
Do not damage the label side, stick paper to, or use any adhesive on  
its surface.  
Audio CD discs  
'
Storage  
Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled one on  
topofanotherwithouttheirprotectivecases,theycanbedamaged. Do  
notputdiscsinalocationwheretheymaybeexposedtodirectsunlight,  
or in a place where the humidity or temperature is high. Avoid leaving  
discs in your car!  
Discs you can't play back  
Any other discs than listed above (such as CD-ROM, DVD or CD-I  
discs) cannot be played. Playing back such discs may generate noise  
and damage your speakers.  
* Even though a logo listed above is printed on the disc, it may not be  
played if it is a non-standard disc.  
Maintenance of discs  
If there are fingerprints or dirt adhering to a disc, wipe it with a soft dry  
cloth, moving from the center outwards.  
Using the remote control  
The remote control is ready to use when its batteries are installed  
properly.  
If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a cloth moistened with water.  
Never use record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any anti-static agents.  
To use it, point its infrared light-emitting window toward the display  
window of the player and press a button. The operating range of the  
remote control is up to about seven meters in front of the player and  
within about 30 degrees to each side –– with nothing between the  
remote control and the player interrupting the beam path.  
If pressing a button on the remote control does not produce any  
response, check to make sure it is pointed correctly and try again. If it  
still does not function, check the batteries.  
CAUTION  
Sometimes during play noise or images may be garbled. This is  
sometimes due to the disc. (It may not be up to industry standards.)  
These symptom are caused by the discs, not by the malfunction of  
the player.

BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME  
Basic connections  
The Video CD player must be connected directly to a television set or,  
Connecting the player to an amplifier/  
receiver equipped with the analog dis-

Connecttheplayer’s5-channeloutputs(AUDIOOUTFRONT-RIGHT/  
LEFT, AUDIO OUT SURROUND-RIGHT/LEFT, and AUDIO OUT  
CENTER) to the analog discrete inputs of an amplifier/receiver using  
audio cables, while the VIDEO OUT to the television’s video input  
terminal using the yellow plugs of the supplied Audio Video cable. Be  
sure to connect correctly between corresponding terminals.  
Connecting the player to a TV or ampli-  
fier/receiver using the Audio Video cable  
First make the audio and video connections before connecting the AC  
power cord. Also, make sure that the equipment (television, amplifier

After the audio-video connectors had been connected, insert the  
female end of the power cord firmly into the AC POWER CORD socket  
located on the rear panel of the player. Then insert the male end of the  
power cord into the wall outlet.  
3. Insert the two tabs of the cover in their respective slots, and  
snap the cover in place.  
When the power cord is connected and the POWER ON/OFF button  
is depressed (ON), the STANDBY indicator on the left-hand side of the
