Welcome  
• The mains plug must be easily accessible so that the unit can be disconnected  
at any time.  
Thank you,  
• Lay the cable in such a way that it cannot get damaged. The power cable  
should not be kinked or laid over sharp edges, not stood upon or exposed to  
chemicals - the latter also applies to the device as a whole. A mains cable with  
damaged insulation can cause electric shocks and is a fire hazard.  
• When removing the power plug, pull the body of the plug, and not the cable.  
Otherwise, the wires in the plug could get damaged and cause a short circuit  
the next time it is plugged in.  
for choosing a Loewe product. We are happy to welcome you as our customer.  
At Loewe we combine the highest standards of technology, design and user  
friendliness. This is equally true of TV, DVD, video, audio and accessories.  
Neither technology nor design is an end in itself, but both are intended to  
provide our customers with the best possible audio and visual experience.  
Our design is not influenced by short-term, fashionable trends. You have,  
after all, purchased a high-quality piece of equipment which you do not want to  
get tired of looking at tomorrow or the day after.  
You should also read and follow the safety advice on the following pages.  
You can control four units with the remote control, a Loewe TV set, a Loewe  
video recorder or a Loewe DVD recorder in addition to this DVD preceiver.  
Disposal  
Cardboard box and packaging  
Scope of delivery  
You have opted for a durable and technically sophisticated product. In line with  
national regulations regarding the disposal of packaging materials, we pay a fee  
to authorised recyclers who collect packaging from dealers. However, we recom-  
mend that you keep the original cardboard box and the rest of the packaging  
materials so that the unit can, if necessary, be transported in the safest possible  
conditions.

The unit  
Important: The EU Directive ꢀ00ꢀ/96/EG governs the proper  
re-acceptance, handling and recycling of used electronic appli-  
ances.  
Old electronic appliances must therefore be disposed of  
separately.  
• this operating manual  
Set up  
Place the DVD-Preceiver on a firm, level base.  
• Do not place the DVD-Preceiver in the vicinity of sources of intense heat or in  
direct sunlight.  
• When installing in a cabinet or enclosed shelf: Leave about ꢀ.5cm free space  
around the DVD Preceiver for unhindered air circulation to prevent build-up of  
heat.  
Never throw this set in the normal domestic waste. You can hand in your old set  
free of charge at identified collection points or at your dealer if you buy a similar  
new set. Other details about re-acceptance (also for non-EU countries) are avail-  
able from your local administration.  
• There can be interference to the images and sound of any nearby television,  
video recorder or radio. If this occurs, do not place the unit near to a televi-  
sion, video recorder or radio, or switch the unit off after removing the disc.  
• Install the DVD-Preceiver where there is nothing to obstruct the remote con-  
trol‘s infrared signal from reaching the DVD-Preceiver display.  
Do not place strong artificial light sources in front of the device. This may  
affect infrared reception.  
• If there is an electrical storm, disconnect the antenna and mains plug. Power  
surges caused by lightning strikes can damage the unit through the antenna  
system or the mains.  
• The antenna and mains should also be disconnected if the unit is to remain  
unsupervised for a long period of time.

Welcome  
PLEASE NOTE: TO AVOID RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE THE  
COVER (OR THE REAR OF THE UNIT). THERE ARE NO PARTS INSIDE THE UNIT  
THAT CAN BE REPAIRED BY THE USER. REPAIRS SHOULD ONLY BE CARRIED OUT  
BY A LOEWE DEALER.  
Cleaning  
• Only clean your DVD-Preceiver with a damp, soft, clean cloth (with no aggres-  
sive cleaning agents).  
• If DVD-Preceiver fails to read the disc correctly, the reader unit in the device  
may be soiled. Use a commercially-available cleaning disc.  
• Always keep the disc drawer closed to prevent dust getting into the drawer  
and onto the lens.  
If you have moved the DVD-Preceiver from a cold to a warm environment,  
leave it to stand for about an hour because of the risk of condensation building  
up. Do not switch it on until it has reached room temperature. This will avoid  
seriously damaging the components.  
For your safety  
For your own safety and to avoid unnecessary damage to your unit, please read  
and follow the safety advice below:  
Read this operating manual, and experiment with your new equipment‘s features  
so that you are familiar with it.  
• This DVD-Preceiver is only to be used for receiving, displaying and playing  
visual and sound signals.  
Advantages of connection to a Loewe TV set  
• Switch off your DVD system (Centros, TV and any other audio components  
which may be connected) before connecting or disconnecting other devices or  
speakers.  
If you connect your Auro to a Loewe TV, you are able to enjoy the Loewe system  
communication ”L-Link”. With L-Link, Auro and your TV join forces in an intel-  
ligent network and form a high-performance home cinema system.  
Auro and the TV exchange data via the L-Link, among other things to check  
whether audio data are available (screen stays off) or whether audio and video  
data are available (screen switches on automatically).  
Thanks to L-Link your TV assumes that Auro will take over processing of all audio  
signals within the equipment network. The Auro switches on automatically when  
you switch on the TV.  
You can operate the whole equipment network with ”one hand” using the Assist  
remote control.  
• Do not open up the hous-  
ing, or you could be directly exposed to the laser beam. The laser beam will be  
visible if the unit is open.  
DO NOT LOOK INTO THE LASER BEAM.  
Technical requirements for L-Link  
Loewe TV of chassis generation Q/S/Pꢀ5xx TV software as of Version 6.0; if  
your TV is equipped with an older software, please contact your Loewe dealer  
for a software update  
• L-Link cable connection must be established in a powerless state; see page  
8/9.  
Protect your DVD-Preceiver from:  
• liquids and damp  
• shock and mechanical stress  
magnetic and electrical fields  
cold, heat, direct sunlight and extreme fluctuations in temperature  
• dust  
Auro must be connected to the Euro AV-input AVꢀ/3 of the TV; see page 9.  
• anything which obstructs ventilation  
• manual interference with the unit‘s interior  
Your Auro has only been designed for use in a domestic environment. The war-  
ranty covers this normal use of the DVD-Preceiver.

FM-antennae (VHF)  
Attention: : All the devices involved must be disconnected from the mains  
when you are connecting the cables.  
Connecting antennae  
Connect the antennae for VHF (FM) and medium wave (AM) as shown in the  
drawing:  
• Connect the enclosed AM antenna to the appropriate terminals – the light  
insulated wire to terminal ”AM”, the dark insulated wire to terminal ”GND”.  
• Make sure the AM antenna and the TV are a great distance apart because the  
TV interferes with AM reception when it is on.  
• Connect the antenna input ”FM” to an antenna system or FM antenna. Do not  
use a cubical antenna if possible because the reception performance of cubical  
antennae is usually unsatisfactory.

Connect the cables as shown in the graphic:  
• Connect the Auro to socket AVꢀ of the Loewe Flat TV. If your Loewe TV set has  
three AV sockets, use socket AV3.  
• You must use a Euro-AV cable in which all contacts are connected with each  
other (ꢀ1-fold as in the case with the enclosed cable).  
• To get a better picture quality, use a three-wire cinch cable and connect it to  
Auro “COMPONENT VIDEO OUT“ and “SD/HD-COMPONENT IN“ of the TV set.  
Pay attention to the exact polarity of the Y/Cb/Cr signals. In addition you have  
to switch the “VIDEO OUT SELECTOR“ switch on the back of the Auro to the  
“COMP.“ position.  
• Letters are embossed on the sides of the plugs on the six-wire cinch cable:  
gray plug: ”C” for center channel; black plug: ”LFE” for subwoofer; red plug:  
”FR” for front right or ”SR” for surround right; white plug: ”FL” for front left or  
”SL” for surround left.  
• For TV as center loudspeaker use a cinch cable to connect “AUDIO IN C“ on  
the TV set with “PRE OUT C“ on the DVD Preceiver (the connection of the gray  
plug “C“ between Auro and Individual Sound/Tremo is omitted). In addition,  
you have to move the ”Center to” switch on the back of Individual Sound/Tre-  
mo to the ”TV” position (switch must be pressed); see the separate operating  
manual for Individual Sound/Tremo.  
• To play the TV sound over Auro/Individual Sound/Tremo, connect the digital  
audio output of the TV set “AUDIO DIGITAL OUT“ with the “DIGITAL IN“ input  
from Auro with a cinch cable.  
• When establishing the L-Link, Auro and the TV must be in the powerless state,  
otherwise, these devices cannot identify each other after switching on; for  
L-Link see page 7.  
• You can connect an additional external analogue source to the analogue audio  
input AUX 1 IN.  
• Two-wire (thin) cubic plug cable from Auro to the “Master” socket on Individ-  
ual Sound/Tremo (connect the end of the cable with kink protection to Auro).  
The cubic plugs are secured in the socket by a lug. You have to press down the  
lug first before you can remove the cubic plug.  
• Audio cable cinch -> SCART (available in specialised trade) for use of the  
component signal and “TV as centre loudspeaker“ - see note on page 4ꢀ.

You hear a noise in turn from every single loudspeaker start-  
ing with the front left speaker. The speaker is highlighted in  
white in the overview (see the figure) whilst the noise is being  
emitted from it. You can reduce or increase the volume of this  
loudspeaker whilst the noise is being emitted from it.  
Listen to all the speakers once first. The perceived volume  
should have the same intensity from all speakers.  
Set the right distance value A (distance listener from center  
loudspeaker). You can change the distance in steps of 0.3 m.  
Go to ”Distance B1” (distance of listener from left front  
speaker) and set the right distance here, too.  
Do the same for all connected speakers.  
Press the button.  
Is one loudspeaker quieter than the others? Then, increase the  
volume level of this speaker (4).  
The ”Listener/Speaker distances” window closes. You are back  
in the ”Speaker System” window.  
Is one loudspeaker louder than the others? Then, reduce the  
volume level of this speaker (3).  
Repeat the procedure until you are hearing all the speakers at  
the same volume.  
Adjust loudspeaker level  
With this dialog, you can compensate differences in volume between the indi-

About operation  
Auro is a DVD-Preceiver. It covers the scope of functions of a DVD player  
(”DVD/CD”) and a radio receiver (”Tuner”) for medium wave (AM) and VHF (FM).  
Processing and transfer of the audio signals take place in a pre-amplifier with  
different decoders. This allows you to set various sound modes – depending on  
the format of the sound source (e.g. DVD, Tuner, TV …).  
Basic functions  
The basic functions are:  
Start playback; button  
Pause (single frame); button  
Stop; button  
Short key press: Go to beginning of chapter  
Long key press: Search  
Source  
You can switch between the sub-devices by either pressing the  
button  
on Auro or by making the appropriate setting on the remote control. When you  
switch over with the buttons on Auro, you must set the RC4A to the correspond-  
ing remote control mode. There is no need for this adaptation of the Auro and  
the remote control when you switch with the remote control. Therefore, we  
recommend you to switch between the sub-devices with the remote control.  
When you select the operating mode with the buttons  
, the appropriate device is switched on unless it already was.  
You can operate the various Loewe units with the RC4A remote control (see page  
41).  
Operation of the Auro with a DVD inserted is described in this chapter. Operation  
is performed with the remote control.  
When you insert a DVD in Auro (see pg. 19), you can follow the description  
below on your remote control.  
Play  
A message appears on the screen after calling a basic  
function. Auro therefore confirms that it has executed the called function, here,  
for example, after pressing the for play.  
Note: Even if the remote control is in the ”RADIO” mode you can start playing  
a disc with the button. The remote control then changes automatically  
to the ”DISC” mode, Auro is switched over to the ”DVD/CD” sub-device, and  
playback of the disc begins.

Discs in the DVD Audio format are recognizable by this symbol.  
DVD Audio is a high-resolution multi-channel sound format  
and is therefore superior in sound quality to the Audio CD and  
MP3 formats.  
Discs in DVD Audio format often contain stills. These stills are freely selectable  
on some DVD Audio discs. Therefore, the DVD menu bar (see pg. 15; call with

Child Lock  
With the child lock you can prevent your children from playing unsuitable DVDs.  
A child lock is not available for other kinds of media (Audio-CD, MPEG, JPEG).  
With appropriately equipped DVDs, it is even possible to have certain chapters  
(scenes) replaced by alternative scenes which are suitable for children. Auro  
detects the chapter requiring protection (the appropriate scene). Depending on  
how you have set the child lock, the original scene is played or an alternative  
scene not requiring censorship.  
Enter your PIN with the numeric buttons.  
When you have entered the fourth digit, the text ”Please  
remember your PIN before continuing with OK!”.  
Take this advice.  
Press the button OK.  
The censorship evaluation differs from country to country. This evaluation is  
therefore linked to the setting under ”Location of Set” (country).

choose between different formats for the sound output.

Sound mode  
The standard setting of the sound mode is ”Automatic”. In this sound mode,  
Auro plays the sound source in original format. In the case of a digital multi-

select a different sound mode at any time.
