10. Notes on Moisture Condensation  
WARNING  
Moisture condensation damages the unit.  
Please read the following carefully.  
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME,  
READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.  
What is moisture condensation?  
The voltage of the available power supply differs according to  
country or region. Be sure that the power supply voltage of the  
area where the unit will be used meets the required voltage  
(e.g., AC 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz) written on the rear panel.  
Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you pour a  
cold drink into a glass on a warm day. Drops of water form on  
the outside of the glass. In the same way, moisture may  
condense on the optical pick-up lens inside the unit, one of  
the most crucial internal parts of the unit.  
5. Do not touch the unit with wet hands  
Do not handle the unit or power cord when your hands are wet  
or damp. If water or any other liquid enters the case, take the  
unit to an authorized service center for inspection.  
Moisture condensation occurs in the following cases.  
When you bring the unit directly from a cold place to a  
warm place.  
When you use the unit in a room where you just turned on  
the heater, or a place where the cold wind from the air  
conditioner directly hits the unit.  
In summer, when you use the unit in a hot and humid place  
just after you move the unit from an air conditioned room.  
When you use the unit in a humid place.  
6. Location of the unit  
Place the unit in a well-ventilated location.  
Take special care to provide plenty of ventilation on all sides of  
the unit especially when it is placed in an audio rack. If  
ventilation is blocked, the unit may overheat and malfunction.  
Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or heating units as  
the units internal temperature may rise and shorten the life of  
the pickup.  
Avoid damp and dusty places and places directly affected by  
vibrations from the speakers. In particular, avoid placing the  
unit on or above one of the speakers.  
Be sure the unit is placed in a horizontal position. Never place  
it on its side or on a slanted surface as it may malfunction.  
When you place the unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the  
playback picture may become poor and the sound may be  
distorted. In this case, place the unit away from the TV, radio,  
or VCR.  
Do not use the unit when moisture condensation may  
occur.  
If you use the unit in such a situation, it may damage discs  
and internal parts. Remove the disc, connect the power cord  
of the unit to the wall outlet, turn on the unit, and leave it for  
two or three hours. After a few hours, the unit will have  
warmed up and evaporated any moisture. Keep the unit  
connected to the wall outlet and moisture condensation will  
seldom occur.  
7. Care  
From time to time you should wipe the front and rear panels and  
the cabinet with a soft cloth. For heavier dirt, dampen a soft cloth  
in a weak solution of mild detergent and water, wring it out dry,  
and wipe off the dirt. Following this, dry immediately with a clean  
cloth.  
Do not use rough material, thinners, alcohol or other chemical  
solvents or cloths since these could damage the finish or remove  
the panel lettering.

If you listen to multichannel DVD-Audio through one of the digital  
outputs, it will be downmixed to stereo. Also, high sampling rate  
DVD-Audio (192kHz or 176.4kHz) will be downsampled to 96kHz,  
88.2kHz, 48kHz, or 44.1 khz, depending on the disc. Multi channel  
and high sampling rate DVD-Audio is only available through the  
analog outputs.  
Some DVD-Audio and all SACD audio is output only through the  
analog outputs.  
In order to enjoy Dolby Digital/DTS 5.1 channel sound, a separate  
Dolby Digital decoder, and 5.1 channel (front right/left, center,  
surround right/left) + subwoofer are required.

Connecting the Power/Turning on the DVD Player  
Before connecting  
The DV-SP800 is shipped with the main power (POWER)  
switch in the on position (_ ON). When the power cord is  
plugged in for the first time, the DV-SP800 will automatically  
enter the standby state and the STANDBY indicator will  
light (same condition after step 2 below).  
Make sure that all the connections on pages 15-19 are complete  
(the connection to a TV is required).

Plug the supplied power cord into  
the AC INLET and then into the  
power outlet on the wall.

with the DV-SP800 and should not be  
used with any other device.

The default setting of this player is AUTO, and unless you notice that  
the picture is distorted when playing some discs, you should leave it  
set to AUTO.  
If you experience picture distortion with some discs, set the TV  
system to match your country or regions system. Doing this,  
however, may restrict the kinds of disc you can watch. The table  
below shows what kinds of disc are compatible with each setting  
(AUTO, PAL and NTSC).  
Never have the power cord  
disconnected from the DV-SP800 while  
the other end is plugged into the wall  
outlet. Doing so may cause an electric  
shock. Always connect by plugging into  
the wall outlet last and disconnect by  
unplugging from the wall outlet first.

This system is not compatible with multi-session discs. If  
you try to play a multi-session disc, only the first session will  
be played.  
Use CD-R or CD-RW media for recording your MP3 files.  
The disc must be finalized in order to play.  
Audio encoded at 128Kbps should sound close to regular  
audio CD quality. Although this system will play lower bit-  
rate MP3 tracks, the sound quality becomes noticeably  
worse at lower bit-rates.

I To navigate a menu screen  
Although individual DVD titles may differ, when a menu  
screen is displayed, use the cursor buttons (2/3/5/) and  
ENTER on the remote control. The cursor buttons are used  
to move around the options on the screen and ENTER is  
used for selection.  
Occasionally, the number buttons may also be used to  
make selections. If this is possible, using number buttons  
serves to directly select an option on a menu screen. Only  
number buttons are used to make selections on Video CD  
menu screens.  
When the Video CD has more than one menu, pages can  
be advanced to or returned to with 4 or ¢.  
Only the first 8 characters of folder and track names  
(excluding the .mp3extension) are displayed.  
This system can recognize a maximum of 250 folders and  
250 tracks. Discs containing more than 250 folders or tracks  
will not play.

Notes  
Even if you set [Audio Out] to [5.1 Channel], youll only get sound  
from all speakers when playing a multi-channel DVD-Audio disc,  
SACD or Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG encoded DVD disc.  
If you set to 2 Channel, Dolby Digital, DTS and MPEG audio is  
mixed down to two channels so you still hear all the audio  
recorded on the disc.  
Some DVD-Audio discs dont allow down-mixing of audio. These  
discs always output multi-channel audio regardless of the setting  
made here.  
When the subwoofer (SW) is set to on, the LFE (low frequency  
effect) signals are input from the subwoofer.  
When listening to a DVD audio source, the C, LS, and RS  
speakers will automatically be set to the [Large] size setting.  
However, the sound will not be affected by the change. Listening  
to another source will return the speakers to their original  
settings.  
For DVD-Audio only, if the C, LS, or RS speakers is set to [Off],  
the audio is automatically downmixed to stereo unless the DVD  
audio software does not permit down mixing.  
The distance setting is unavailable for SACD discs.

To help you gauge the correct gain levels, set the [Test Tone]  
to [On] (test tone from just that speaker) or [Auto] (test tone  
from each speaker in turn, excluding the subwoofer) then  
adjust the gain so that all speakers appear to be the same  
volume from your listening position.  
Follow the on-screen displays to select speakers and set the  
channel levels.  
Press the cursor (5) to select [Test Tone], then press the left  
cursor button (2) to select the Gain Settings.  
You can adjust the [Test Tone] setting only when the player  
is stopped.  
You may want to make this setting if you connected this player  
to your amplifier using the 5.1 channel analog outputs.  
Under the default setting, all channels are output at the  
relative volumes they were recorded at. Change the setting to  
[Variable] if you want to adjust the relative volume levels of  
any of the speakers. Adjustment is in the range of 6dB to  
+6dB, in steps of 0.5dB.  
When set to [Variable], the overall output level may sound  
quieter than when set to [Fix]. This is not a malfunction.

I CD Digital Direct  
Setting this to [On] increases CD audio quality by bypassing  
certain audio circuits in the player that audio signal would  
otherwise pass through. However, this must be set to [Off] for  
proper playback of DTS encoded CDs.  
When set to [Variable], the overall output level is set to 6.0dB.  
Adjust the relative volume levels of [C (center)], [LS (left  
surround)], [RS (right surround)], and [SW (subwoofer)] in the  
range of 6.0dB to +6.0dB from the value. The maximum output  
level (+6.0dB) which is set to [Variable] is same as the output  
level when set to [Fix].  
Therefore, when set to [Variable], the output level sounds quieter  
than the output level when set to [Fix], in almost all cases.  
When Variable is selected, the following screen appears:

I Switching the S-Video Output  
Compared to a standard interlaced TV picture, a progressive  
scan TV is capable of stable, flicker-free images.  
Set only if you connected the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT to a  
progressive-scan compatible TV or monitor.  
You can switch the kind of S-Video signal output from the  
S-Video outputs. If you connected your TV with an S-Video  
cord, in rare cases the TV picture may appear stretched. In  
this case switch the output from [S2] to [S1].

I Turning the Screen Saver On and Off Expert  
As a protective function against residual images on the TV  
screen or monitor, a phenomenon referred to as screen burn,  
the screen saver appears when the same screen has been  
displayed for a length of time. By default, the screen saver is  
turned on. However, the screen saver function can be turned  
on and off at your discretion.  
Notes  
This function only works when the color system recorded on the  
disc is NTSC.  
If this player is set to output progressive-scan video, its possible  
that the picture will appear stretched when playing discs recorded  
in 4:3 format. This happens when the TVs aspect ratio is set  
[Full]. To see the picture in its correct aspect ratio, change the TV  
setting to [Normal].  
Make changes to the [Screen Saver] setting in the Setup

Video on a DVD discs may be either video material (originally  
shot on video) or film material (originally shot on film). Video  
material has a frame rate of 30 frames/sec. (NTSC),  
compared with 24 frames/sec. for film. This player converts  
film material to 60 frames/sec. (in progressive scan mode).  
PureCinema adjusts the picture so that it matches more  
closely the picture quality of a cinema screen.  
You can see whether video on a DVD disc is film or video  
material by displaying the video transmission rate (see page  
44). If a hash mark (#) appears above the transmission rate  
display, it is film material.

Setting the Parental Lock Level  
This player lets you set the Parental Lock if the DVD has a  
parental lock level recorded on it. With Parental Lock capable  
discs, you can block access to material you feel is  
inappropriate for your children. Refer to the DVD disc jacket  
and the accompanying documentation to see if a particular  
disc contains a parental lock level.  
Make changes to the [Parental Lock] setting in the Setup  
screen General menu. Please note that changes to the  
Parental Lock level cannot be made when a disc is playing.  
Stop playback of the disc before attempting to make any  
changes.  
I Entering the Password  
When you select either [Level] or [Country Code], it is  
necessary to register the password (4-digit code number).  
Youll be asked to confirm your existing password before  
registering a new one. Use the following steps at any time you  
are asked to enter or confirm your password.  
1 Use the cursor buttons (5/) or the number buttons to  
select a number between 0 and 9.  
You can also use the number buttons to enter the numbers  
directly. When entering your password for the first time, or  
changing it, you will be asked to reenter your password. When  
using the number buttons to confirm the password, the numbers  
appear as asterisks, and the cursor advances automatically to the  
next position.  
You cannot select [Level] or [Country Code] until you have  
registered a password. Select [Password] to register a new  
password. See Entering the Passwordon the this page for  
how to register a new password.

Programming the Commands  
of Other Remote Control Units into the Remote Controller  
This remote controller features a learning function that allows you to program the remote codes of other remote control  
units for more singular control of your home entertainment system. A number of commands can be programmed for  
operation for when the remote controller is in DVD mode and when it is in Receiver mode. Please follow the procedure in  
this section to program your remote controller to your preferences.  
Programming procedure  
The first step in the procedure is to determine whether the new command is to be learned in the DVD  
mode or in the Receiver mode. Generally speaking, this should be decided by the command being  
learned. After deciding which mode is to be used, you will then transfer the individual commands from the  
other remote control unit to the RC-498DV remote controller one at a time. Each command is then  
programmed to one of the available buttons on the RC-498DV remote controller.  
Even after the commands have been programmed, keep the other remote control unit in a safe place in the  
case that the programmed commands should be lost (e.g., when the batteries run down). If the commands  
are lost, it will then be necessary to program them again.  
Place the remote controller and the  
other remote control unit of the  
other component facing each other  
at a distance of 5 to 15 cm apart.  
While pressing and holding down  
the desired MODE button (VCR or  
TV) on the remote controller, press  
SEARCH and then release both  
buttons.  
1
2
When you press and hold down the  
desired MODE button, the SEND/LEARN  
indicator lights up. When you press  
SEARCH, the indicator turns off. When  
you release both buttons, the indicator  
lights up again.  
Press and release the button on the  
remote controller to which you want  
to transfer the new command.  
3
5 to 15 cm  
The buttons that can be selected in this  
step depend on the mode (other than  
MODE (DVD, RCVR, TV, VCR)).  
RC-498DV  
If you press the wrong button by mistake,  
press the same button again. The SEND/  
LEARN indicator flashes three times and  
the remote controller exits the  
programming mode. When this is the case,  
start again at step 1.

Programming procedure  
Notes  
Press and hold down the button on

LEARN indicator flashes twice to  
indicate that the command has  
been successfully programmed.  
functions of an Onkyo receiver. Therefore, it is recommended to  
program additional functions of the receiver that are not already  
programmed in the remote controller.  
If no buttons are pressed for more than 30 seconds during the  
programming, or if you perform an invalid operation, the SEND/  
LEARN indicator flashes three times quickly and the remote  
controller exits the programming mode. Resume programming  
from step 2.  
If you perform an invalid operation during programming, the  
SEND/LEARN indicator flashes three times quickly and the  
remote controller exits the programming mode. Resume from  
Step 2.  
4
After flashing twice, the SEND/LEARN  
indicator lights up again.  
When you want to program a command to a button to which you  
have already programmed a command, simply follow the same  
procedure and programming for that button will be overwritten.  
The remote controller uses infrared rays to send its commands,  
as do most other remote control units. Though most remote  
control units can be memorized by the remote controller, be  
aware that some remote control units use a system that is quite  
different from the remote controller and therefore may not be able  
to be programmed.  
Some remote control units have a single button that performs  
multiple functions (for example, the function may change each  
time the button is pressed). If this is the case, each function must  
be programmed to a separate button on the remote controller.  
Once you have programmed the commands from the other  
remote control unit, refer to the instructions supplied with the  
other component to operate.  
Make sure that both the remote controller and the other remote  
control unit have new batteries. If either of them has batteries  
that are low, you may not be able to program the commands of  
the other remote control unit properly into the remote controller.  
Removing the batteries from the remote controller for at least 10  
minutes erases all of the commands that have been programmed  
in the remote controller.  
Repeat steps 3 and 4 to program  
other commands within the same  
mode. Repeat step 2 to 4 to  
program commands to the other  
mode.  
5
Press the MODE button (VCR or TV)  
that you pressed in step 2 to  
complete the programming.

Use the remote controller to  
perform the newly learned  
command to confirm that it was  
learned correctly.
