Care and safet y infor m at ion  
Avoid high tem peratures, m oisture, water and  
dust.  
St ep 1: Placing t he speaker s  
and subwoofer s  
Do not expose the system, batteries or discs to  
humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat (caused by heating  
equipment or direct sunlight.) Always keep the disc tray  
closed to avoid dust on the lens.  
Avoid condensation problem  
The lens may cloud over when the player is suddenly  
moved from cold to warm surroundings, making it  
impossible to play a disc. Leave the player in the warm  
environment until the moisture evaporates.  
Do not block the vents  
Do not operate the DVD system in an enclosed  
cabinet, allow about 10 cm (4 inches) of free space all  
around the player for adequate ventilation.  
For best possible surround sound, all the speakers (exept  
subwoofer) should be placed at the same distance from the  
listening position.  
10 cm  
(4 inches)  
1 Place the front left and right speakers at equal distances  
from the TV and at an angle of approximately 45 degrees  
from the listening position.

(4 inches)  
DVD Home Cinema System  
2 Place the centre speaker above the TV or the DVD system  
so the centre channels sound is localized.  
3 Place the surround speakers at normal listening ear level  
facing each other.  
Care of disc  
To clean a CD, wipe it in a straight line  
from the center towards the edge using a soft,  
lint-free cloth. A cleaning agent may damage  
the disc.  
4 Place the subwoofer on the floor near the TV.  
Write only on the printed side of a  
CDR(W) and only with a soft felt-tipped pen.  
Handle the disc by its edge, do not touch the surface.  
Notes:  
To avoid magnetic interference, do not position the front  
speakers too close to yourTV.  
Allow adequate ventilation around the DVD system.  
Care of cabinet  
Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent  
solution. Do not use a solution containing alcohol, spirits,  
ammonia or abrasives.  
Finding a suitable location  
Place the player on a flat, hard, and stable surface.

VSS (Virtual Surround Sound)  
The Prologic MPEG or Dolby Digital surround channel is  
processed by a virtualizer’ DSP to add surround effect from  
just the two front speakers.  
Stereo broadcasts or recordings will produce  
som e surround channel effects when played in a

Stereo  
All sound is reproduced and played through the front left

reproduction.  
Press SURRO UND to select surround or stereo mode.  
The availability of the various surround sound modes

Dolby Digital Surround  
Dolby Digital (also known as AC-3 or Dolby 5.1) and MPEG  
Multichannel delivered a realistic and dynamic sound similar  
to theater and cinema. It requires connection of all five  
speakers (front left/right, cente, surround left/right) and  
subwoofer for correct Dolby Digital Surround sound  
reproduction. Each channel plays its own unique role in  
providing the right sound. Front left, center and front right  
join two surround speakers to reproduce high, mid and bass  
frequencies in five full-range channels of surround. Bass rumble,  
explosions and low frequency effects you feel are delivered  
through the subwoofer. A large number of DVD discs are  
recorded in Dolby Digital Surround.

The DTS Surround is a cinema surround sound format that  
offers superior digital audio performance. DTS offers more  
clarity and definition especially for higher tones. The better  
sound quality is a result of the limited sound compression  
(3:1 instead of 11:1 for Dolby Digital) and the 20-bit resolution.

Dolby Pro Logic Surround  
The Dolby Pro Logic Surround system is a specially encoded  
two channels analog format that will produce sound through  
four speaker channels (front left, center, front right, monaural  
surround) when a Dolby Pro Logic Decoder is used. It is also  
compatible with stereo systems but the user will only have  
two channels (Front Left & Right) of sound.  
Dolby Pro Logic II Surround  
Dolby Pro Logic II Surround creates five full bandwidth output  
channels from two-channel sources. This is done using an  
advanced, high purity matrix surround decoder that extracts  
the spatial properties of the original recording without adding  
any new sounds or tonal colorations.
