Precautions
Notes on Discs
Handling discs
Handling the unit
Do not touch the playback side of the disc.
Hold the disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not
get on the surface.
When shipping the unit
The original shipping carton and packing materials
come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the
unit as it was originally packed at the factory.
Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.
When setting up the unit
The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR, or radio
may be distorted during playback. In this case, position
the unit away from the TV, VCR, or radio, or turn off the
unit after removing the disc.
Storing discs
To keep the exterior surfaces clean
After playing, store the disc in its case.
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of
heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct sun-
light, as there may be a considerable temperature
increase inside the car.
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray,
near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in
contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will
leave marks on the surface.
Cleaning the unit
Cleaning discs
To clean the cabinet
Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor pic-
ture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean
the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the cen-
ter out.
Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty,
use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent
solution. Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol,
benzine, or thinner, as these might damage the surface
of the unit.
To obtain a clear picture
The DVD player is a high-tech, precision device. If the
optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or
worn, the picture quality will be poor.
Regular inspection and maintenance are recommended
after every 1,000 hours of use. (This depends on the
operating environment.)
Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine,
thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static
spray intended for older vinyl records.

Tips
ꢀ If your television is a high-definition or “digital ready”
television, you may take advantage of the DVD
Player’s progressive scan output for the highest
video resolution possible.
ꢀ Depending on your TV and other equipment you wish
to connect, there are various ways you could connect
the player. Use only one of the connections
described below.
ꢀ If your TV does not accept the Progressive Scan for-
mat, the picture will appear scrambled if you try
Progressive Scan on the DVD Player.
ꢀ Please refer to the manuals of your TV, VCR, Stereo
System or other devices as necessary to make the
best connections.
ꢀ For better sound reproduction, connect the player’s
AUDIO OUT jacks to the audio in jacks of your
amplifier, receiver, stereo or audio/video equipment.
See “Connecting to Optional Equipment”
on page 11-12.
Connect the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks on
1
the DVD Player to the corresponding in jacks on
the TV using an optional Y, CB/PB, CR/PR cable (C).
Connect the Left and Right AUDIO OUT jacks of
2
the DVD Player to the audio left/right in jacks on the
TV (A) using the supplied audio cables.

TV. Tune the TV to the correct video input channel.
– Do not connect the DVD Player’s AUDIO OUT jack to
the phono in jack (record deck) of your audio system.
– Do not connect your DVD Player via your VCR. The
DVD image could be distorted by the copy protection
system.
Notes

Viewing another PAGE
DVD-A
Since DVD Audio discs can hold a lot of content, there
are various ways to see what’s available on the disc.
1 Press OSD during playback.
DVD Audio is a new disc format building on the success
of DVD to provide high quality, uncompressed, multi-
channel audio for a new experience in audio quality. A
DVD Audio disc can be identified by the DVD audio logo
on the disc jacket or on the disc itself.
2 Press 3/4to select Page icon.
3 Press 1/2 to select a page number.
What appears on the screen will vary from disc to disc
because the information available depends upon the way the
disc was created.
DVD Audio can provide higher quality stereo than Audio
CDs with a sampling rate of up to 192kHz (compared to
44.1kHz for CDs). DVD Audio digital sound can be
delivered with up to 24 bits of data (compared to 16 bits
for a standard CD).
Note
Since the authoring of DVD Audio Discs varies, some of
the on-screen display choices might not be available for
the disc you’re playing.
A typical DVD Audio disc contains up to seven times the
data capacity of a CD. This additional space is used for
music, either Advanced Resolution multi-channel sound
quality that is closer to the artist’s master recording or
for longer recordings. Many DVD Audio discs contain
on-screen text, such as artist biographies, playlists, or
lyrics. Some DVD Audio discs contain photo galleries or
video clips.
Note
To enjoy maximum sound quality and surround effect of
DVD Audio, you must use 5.1 channel analog audio output
(5.1CH AUDIO OUT jacks on the DVD Player). If you use
the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) for your audio
connection, the sound will only be similar to CD-quality
sound even though you’re playing a DVD Audio disc.
1/6
Moving to another GROUP
DVD-A
Some DVD Audio discs divide content into different
groups. Your player enables you to quickly access dif-
ferent groups during playback via the on-screen display.
1 Press OSD during playback on in stop mode.
2 Press 3/4to select Group icon.
3 Press 1/2 or the numbered buttons (0-9) to select a
group number.
Note
Sometimes the author of the disc creates hidden con-
tent that can only be accessed by entering a password.
If the lock icon appears on the TV screen, enter the
password (sometimes you’ll find it on the disc’s jacket
cover or on a web site). This password control isn’t dic-
tated by your DVD Player — it is a function of the disc.
Since the authoring of DVD Audio Discs varies, some of
the on-screen display choices might not be available for
the disc you’re playing.

About MP3

WMA
ꢀ An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using the
MPEG1 audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call
files that have the “.mp3” file extension “MP3 files”.
ꢀ The player can not read an MP3 file that has a file
extension other than “.mp3”.
The DVD Player can play MP3/WMA formatted record-
ings on CD-ROM, CD-R or CD-RW discs.
Before playing MP3/WMA recordings, read the notes on
MP3/WMA Recordings on right.
Insert a disc and close the tray.

4. If you record MP3/WMA files using the software
which cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example
“Direct-CD” etc., it is impossible to playback
MP3/WMA files. We recommend that you use “Easy-
CD Creator”, which creates an ISO9660 file system.
5. A single session disc requires MP3/WMA files in the
first track. If there is no MP3/WMA file in the 1st
track, it cannot playback MP3/WMA files. If you wish
to playback MP3/WMA files, format all the data in
the disc or use a new one.
6. File names should be named using 8 letters or less
and must incorporate “.mp3” or “.wma” extension
e.g. “********.MP3” or “********.WMA”.
7. Do not use special letters such as “/ : * ? “ < > ” etc.

HDCD Playback
HDCD is a process that increases the fidelity of both
specially encoded HDCD discs and standard CD audio
discs. When an HDCD-encoded disc is playing, the spe-
cial decoder is automatically activated and the HDCD
Indicator lights. No user intervention is required.
To enjoy the benefits of HDCD, your DVD Player must
be connected to your A/V receiver via the Analog Audio
Outputs. However, if your A/V receiver or surround
processor is equipped with built-in HDCD decoding, you
may also use a Coaxial or Optical digital audio connec-
tion so that the HDCD processing is done there.
