and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an  
antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location  
of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes,  
and requirements for the grounding electrode.  
CAUTIONPolarization –  
7.  
This product may be equipped  
with a polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one  
blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet  
only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the  
plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should  
still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete  
outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.  
8. Power Cord Protection – Power-supply cords should be routed  
so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items  
placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to  
cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where

Compressing MP3/WMA  
Please set up the transfer bit rate setting for the compression software when compressing MP3/WMA files as follow.  
MP3 Files : 128 kbps recommended (32 - 384 kbps)  
WMA Files : 128 kbps recommended (48 - 320 kbps)  
This unit is compatible with 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz (recommended) and 48 kHz sampling frequencies.  
This unit is compatible with ID3-TAG Ver. 1. (Alphanumeric sign : up to 30 characters)  
DIGITAL output of MP3/WMA data is done not as MP3/WMA data, but as PCM data.  
Naming folders and files  
Single-byte characters between A and Z, single-byte numerals between 0 and 9, and the single-byte underscore(_) can be displayed. Ensure  
that the extension log is attached to all file names.  
Never add the wrong extension log to any files, the equipment will assume that they can be played back, and this will produce loud noises  
in the speakers, resulting in damage of adverse effects.  
Note:  
Folder names and file names are displayed up to 20 characters. When folder names and file names are recorded with more than 20 characters,  
the names will be displayed in abbreviated form.  
Confirming media and files  
Check to ascertain that MP3/WMA files can be played back correctly on the personal computer in use prior to saving them onto the media.  
Check to ensure that the saved file can be played back normally.  
It is not possible to confirm that files can be played back correctly while they are being saved onto the  
media.  
Example for a hierarchical  
structure  
When saving files onto media  
Ensure that the session is closed or finalized when data has been written on media. There are cases where  
media on which the session has not be closed or finalized will not be played back correctly with this equip-  
ment.  
There are cases where the folder names and file names will not be displayed correctly depending on the  
software used to save them.  
Do not store files or folders other than playable files on media to be played back with this equipment.  
It is recommended that ten or less sessions are stored when recording MP3/WMA files onto a media.  
In case of a multisession disc, some time may be required until playback begins.  
There are cases where playback is not possible when DivX/MP3/WMA/JPEG files (CD-ROM) and music CD  
information (CD-DA) are saved on the same media.

/
If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of handling 96 kHz  
signals, select 48 kHz. When this choice is made, this unit auto-  
matically converts any 96 kHz signals to 48 kHz so your system  
can decode them.  
Rating 1-8: Rating one (1) has the most restrictions and rating  
eight (8) is the least restrictive.  
Unlock  
If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling 96 kHz sig-  
nals, select 96 kHz. When this choice is made, this unit passes  
each type of signal through without any further processing.  
Check the documentation for your amplifier to verify its capa-  
bilities.  
If you select unlock, parental control is not active and the disc  
plays in full.  
Note:  
When you set "Rating" for the first time, you set an area code  
first.  
When the disc prohibits 96 kHz digital output, the signal always  
is put out after down-conversion.  
If you set a rating for the player, all disc scenes with the same  
rating or lower are played. Higher rated scenes are not played  
unless an alternate scene is available on the disc. The alternative  
must have the same rating or a lower one. If no suitable alterna-  
tive is found, playback stops. You must enter the 4-digit pass-  
word or change the rating level in order to play the disc.  
DRC (Dynamic Range Control)  
With the DVD format, you can hear a program's soundtrack in  
the most accurate and realistic presentation possible, thanks to  
digital audio technology. However, you may wish to compress  
the dynamic range of the audio output (the difference between  
the loudest sounds and the quietest ones). This allows you to  
listen to a movie at a lower volume without losing clarity of  
sound. Set DRC to On for this effect.
