Precautions

Ensure that the AC power supply in your house complies with the identification sticker located on the back of your player. Install your player horizontally, on a suitable base (furniture), with enough space around it for ventilation (3~4inches). Make sure the ventilation slots are not covered. Do not stack anything on top of the player. Do not place the player on amplifiers or other equipment which may become hot. Before moving the player, ensure the disc tray is empty. This player is designed for continuous use. Switching off the DVD player to the stand-by mode does not disconnect the electrical supply. In order to disconnect the player completely from the power supply, remove the main plug from the wall outlet, especially when left unused for a long period of time.

During thunderstorms, disconnect AC main plug from the wall outlet.

Voltage peaks due to lightning could damage the unit.

Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or other heat sources.

This could lead to overheating and malfunction of the unit.

Protect the player from moisture(i.e. vases) , and excess heat(e.g.fireplace) or equipment creating strong magnetic or electric fields (i.e.speakers...). Disconnect the power cable from the AC supply if the player malfunctions. Your player is not intended for industrial use.

Use of this product is for personal use only.

Condensation may occur if your player or disc have been stored in cold temperatures.

If transporting the player during the winter, wait approximately 2 hours until the unit has reached room temperature before using.

The battery used with this product contain chemicals that are harmful to the environment.

Do not dispose of batteries in the general household trash.

Connecting the Speakers

Before moving or installing the product, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power cord.

•

Connect the front/rear, center, and subwoofer speakers to the speaker terminals on the back of the main unit.

Position of the DVD Player

•

Place it on a stand, cabinet shelf, or under the

TV stand.

Front/Rear Speakers / LS RS

•

Place these speakers in front of your listening position, facing inwards (about 45°) toward you.

•

Place the speakers so that their tweeters will be at the same height as your ear.

•

Align the front face of the front speakers with the front face of the center speaker or place them slightly in front of the center speakers.

Selecting the Listening Position

The listening position should be located about 2.5 to 3 times the distance of the TV's screen size away from the

TV. Example: For 32" TVs 2~2.4m (6~8 feet)

For 55" TVs 3.5~4m (11~13 feet)

Center Speaker C

•

It is best to install it at the same height as the front speakers.

•

You can also install it directly over or under the TV.

Subwoofer SW

•

The position of the subwoofer is not so critical.

Place it anywhere you like.

•

Usually, it is placed by a corner near the front speakers.

19

Back of the Speaker

1 Press down the terminal tab on the back of the speaker.

2 Insert the black wire into the black terminal (–) and the gray wire into the gray (+) terminal, and then release the tab.

Black Gray

Back of the Main Unit

3 Connect the wires to the output plugs of the same color on the back of the main unit, making sure that the polarity

(+/–) is correct.

Example: Connect the center speaker's green wire to the center speaker output plug

(green) on the back of the main unit.

Caution

• Do not let children play with the speakers.

They could get hurt if a speaker falls.

• When connecting the speaker wires to the speakers, make sure that the polarity (+/) is correct.

• Never touch the speaker terminal while the power is on.

Doing so may result in a risk of electric shock.

Note

• If you place a speaker near your TV set, screen color may be distorted because of the magnetic field generated by the speaker. In this case, place the speaker away from your TV set.

What is HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)?

This device transmits DVD video and audio signals digitally without the process of converting to analog. You can get sharper digital pictures by connecting the video to the

TV using an HDMI connection cable.

Note

• If you connect the HDMI and Component outputs (P

R

, P

B

, Y) at the same time, the Component output resolution changes automatically to the designated HDMI resolution.

Example: If the TV connected to HDMI can only support up to 480p, the HDMI and Component outputs are all converted to 480p, even if you select the resolution switch to 1080i.

• Since this product has an embedded Video Upscaler function with Faroudja DCDi technology, it can enhance a

576i(480i) DVD resolution output to 480p/720p/1080i.

• You do not have to make separate adjustments, since the Home Theater and TV will be automatically adjust themselves to the optimal resolution and aspect ratio if connected to HDMI. (If the TV is an HDTV and has an

HDMI Input jack, output is automatically converted to 1080i resolution.)

• Audio will not be output if decoder is not embedded in TV during 5.1 channel disk playback.

• Component output will give video in ‘480p’ mode only during DVD disc playback applied with Macrovision.

• Macrovision processes scramble on analog output to prevent illegal recording. Accordingly, if you are using

HDMI only, it can output 480p/720P/1080i, but is limited to 480p only if you are using component.

• When both HDMI and COMPONENT jacks are connected, COMPONENT video is not displayed.

• See your TV owner's manual for more information on how to select the TV's Video Input source.

TV Broadcast System

• This device is designed to work with the NTSC video format.

• For normal playback, the video format used to record a DVD disc must be compatible with your TV's video format.

Distance between Df and Dc Delay Time placement of speakers, you can adjust this difference by adding a delay effect to the sound of the Center Speaker and Surround Speakers.
