BEFORE YOU BEGIN  
Theres Always a Catch  
Because DVD is a new technology, we recom m end  
that you take som e tim e right now to read through  
this m anual and fam iliarize yourself with the player.  
I Know, You Really Want to Get  
Going  
I know that youd rather use your DVD player than  
read about it, so Ive divided this m anual up into  
sections that address how to use each type of disc  
that you can play on your player: DVDs, Audio CDs,  
and Video CDs. So, you dont have to read all of the  
book at once.  
Read the First Two Sections First  
The first two sections, “Before You Begin” and  
Connections” include key inform ation to get you  
started in the right direction. I suggest that you read  
at least these two sections before you do anything;  
then you can go back to the sections that discuss the  
features as you want to use them .  
A Note about the Illustrations  
The illustrations in this book are  
representational, and in som e  
instances m ay not exactly m atch the

A Short Glossary of DVD  
Terminology  
An g le s When m aking a DVD, the studio can incorporate  
various cam era angles which you can select by using the  
ANGLE button on the rem ote. Note that not all DVDs contain  
m ultiple cam era angles.  
Au t h o r Me n u The Author m enu is the m enu on a disc that  
allows you to change settings for that disc. We call it the  
“author” m enu because its features are “authored” by the  
m aker of the disc, and m ay vary from disc to disc.  
Ch a p t e r Each Title on a DVD can be divided into chapters  
(sim ilar to tracks on an audio CD).  
Do lb y Dig it a l* If you have a Dolby Pro Logic Surround  
decoder, you will obtain the full benefit of Pro Logic from the  
sam e DVD m ovies that provide full 5.1-channel Dolby Digital  
soundtracks, as well as from titles with the Dolby Surround  
m ark.  
Tit le A DVD m ay contain several different titles, for exam ple  
if a disc contains four different m ovies, each m ight be  
considered a title (and each m ay have several Chapters within  
it).

things that you need to know.  
Protect Your Components from Power Surges  
Connect all com ponents before plugging any  
power cords into the wall outlet.  
Always turn off the DVD player,TV and other

TVs back panel instead of straight down the  
m iddle after you connect your com ponents.  
Try not to coil any twin-lead cables and keep them  
away from the audio/video cables as m uch as  
possible.  
Make sure all antennas and cables are properly  
grounded.  
Protect Your Components from Overheating  
Do not block ventilation holes in any of the  
com ponents. Arrange the com ponents so that air  
can circulate freely.  
Do not stack com ponents.  
Allow adequate ventilation when placing your  
com ponents in a stand.
