for example, near a bathtub, wash bowl, kitchen sink,
laundry tub, in a wet basement, near a swimming
pool or the like.
8. Accessories - Do not place this unit on an unstable
cart, stand, tripod, bracket or table. The unit may fall,
causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious
damage to the unit. Use only with a cart, stand,
tripod, bracket or table recommended by the manu-
facturer or sold with the unit. Any mounting of the

should not be placed in a built-in installation such as
a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is
provided or the manufacturer’s instructions have been
adhered to.
10. Power Sources - This unit should be operated only
from the type of power source indicated on the
marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power
supply to your home consult your appliance dealer or
local power company. For units intended to be
operated from battery power, or other sources, refer to
the operating instructions.

equipped with either a polarized 2-wire AC line plug
(a plug having one blade wider than the other) or a 3-
wire grounding plug having a third (grounding) pin.

outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet try
reversing the plug. If the plug still fails to fit, contact
your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do
not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
12. Power-cord Protection - Power-supply cords should
be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on
or pinched by items placed upon or against them,
paying particular attention to cords of plugs, conve-
nience receptacles, and the point where they exit
from the unit.

Handling Precautions
Disc Storage
handling, care and
cleaning instructions.
• Before connecting other components to this system, be
certain the system power and component power is off.
• Be certain that speaker connections are secure and not
shorted before turning on the system power.
• Lower the system volume before switching between the
DVD, VCR and AUX inputs and when changing discs.
• Do not move the system while a disc is being played to
prevent the disc from being scratched or broken, and to
prevent damage to the disc player’s internal parts.
• Do not set liquid filled objects or any small metal
objects on top of the system.
• Store all discs properly in their case or protective sleeve
and handle each disc carefully as the discs are suscep-
tible to damage.
• Do not store discs in direct sunlight; keep discs in a cool
ventilated area.
• Do not stack discs. Store discs vertically on a shelf.
Maintenance of Cabinet
For safety reasons, be sure to disconnect the AC power
cord from the AC outlet before cleaning the cabinet.
• Do not use benzene, thinner, or other solvents for
cleaning.
• Be careful not to place anything other than a disc in the
disc tray.
• Exterior interference such as lightning and static elec-
tricity may affect normal operation of this system. If this
occurs, turn the system off and on again with the
POWER button, or disconnect and then reconnect the
AC power cord to the AC power outlet. The system will
reset and should operate normally again.
• Be sure to remove the disc and put the system in
Standby after use.
• Disconnect the AC power cord from the AC outlet when
you don’t intend to use the system for long periods of
time.
• Wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth.
Formation of Condensation
When the system is exposed to rapid temperature and
humidity changes, condensation may form if warm air
comes in contact with any cold parts inside the system.
• If condensation forms inside the system, the system may
not operate correctly. When this occurs, leave the
system at room temperature until the inside of system
becomes dry and operational.
• If condensation forms on a disc, wipe the disc with a
soft and dry cloth by moving the cloth from the center
hole toward the outer edge.
• Clean the disc by wiping in a straight line from the
inside to the outside of the disc.

Use the UP/DOWN button to set the center
channel delay from 0-5ms, in 1ms increments,
then press ENTER.
2 Now measure the distance from the primary
listening area to your center speaker; e.g. 7 feet.
3 Calculate the difference; e.g. 10 feet minus 7
feet = 3 feet.
Set Surround Channel Delay
Use the UP/DOWN button to set the surround
channel delay from 0-15ms, in 3ms increments
(i.e., 0, 3, 6, 9....15ms), then press ENTER.
4 Assume 1 ms of delay for each 1 foot of dis-
tance, e.g. set the Center delay to 3ms.
5 Repeat steps 2-4 for the surround speakers; e.g.
10 feet minus 4 feet = 6 feet, or 6 ms delay.
NOTE:
Note: If the center or surround distance is equal
to or greater than the reference distance, set the
delay to 0 ms.
The VOL. SETUP key is not active during STOP or
while playing a CD or VCD. To set channel
delays in these modes, follow the steps on page

Repeat steps 4-7 until you have fine-tuned the
channel balance for your listening area.
NOTES:
• You can adjust the speaker level during playback of a disc by pressing the VOL. SETUP button on the remote
control. You may find this more convenient than using the “white noise” generator in the Main Menu.
• The test output signal of the subwoofer is lower than the other speakers.
• For best results, use a Sound Pressure Level Meter (available at your local electronics retailer) to measure the
strength of the signal from each speaker.

• Remove the batteries and hold down one or more buttons for
several minutes to drain the microprocessor inside the remote to
reset it. Reinstall the batteries and try the remote again.
• The features or action cannot be completed at this time because:
1. The DVD’s software restricts it.
2. The DVD’s software doesn’t support the feature (e.g., Angles).
3. The feature is not available at the moment.
4. You’ve requested a title or chapter number or search time that is
out of range.
• Be sure the remote control mode is set to the device you wish to

tions are met:
1. The DVS is connected with 5 speakers (optional subwoofer).
2. The disc is recorded with 5.1 channel sound.
• Check whether the disc being played has the “Dolby 5.1 ch” mark
on the outside.
“There is no audio.”
• Check the settings under “Audio Options/Speaker Setup.”
• Make sure that Mute has not been pressed.
• Check the settings under “Audio Options/Speaker Setup.”
