SAFETY INFORMATION

This system was designed to provide you with many years of reliable operation with a minimum of care and maintenance. Every component in your system was in perfect working condition when it left our factory. If you experience any problems with the set-up or operation of this system, please review the Troubleshooting guide at the end of this manual before you contact your authorized

JBL dealer.

Important Safety Information

Verify Line Voltage Before Use

Your CS3/CS5 has been designed for use with 220–240-volt AC current. Connection to a line voltage other than that for which it is intended can create a safety and fire hazard, and may damage the unit.

If you have any questions about the voltage requirements for your specific model, or about the line voltage in your area, contact your dealer before plugging the unit into a wall outlet.

Do Not Use Extension Cords

To avoid safety hazards, use only the power cord attached to your unit. We do not recommend that extension cords be used with this product. As with all electrical devices, do not run power cords under rugs or carpets or place heavy objects on them. Damaged power cords should be replaced immediately by an authorized service depot with a cord meeting factory specifications.

Handle the AC Power Cord Gently

When disconnecting the power cord from an AC outlet, always

pull the plug, never pull the cord. If you do not intend to use the unit for any considerable length of time, disconnect the plug from the AC outlet.

Do Not Open the Cabinet

There are no user-serviceable components inside this product. Opening the cabinet may present a shock hazard, and any modification to the product will void your guarantee. If water or any metal object such as a paper clip, wire or a staple accidentally falls inside the unit, disconnect it from the AC power source immediately, and consult an authorized service station.

Installation Location

To ensure proper operation and to avoid the potential for safety hazards, place the unit on a firm and level surface. When placing the unit on a shelf, be certain that the shelf and any mounting hardware can support the weight of the product.

Make certain that proper space is provided both above and below the unit for ventilation. If this product will be installed in a cabinet or other enclosed area, make certain that there is sufficient air movement within the cabinet. Under some circumstances a fan may be required.

Do not place the unit directly on a carpeted surface.

Avoid installation in extremely hot or cold locations, or an area that is exposed to direct sunlight or heating equipment.

Avoid moist or humid locations.

Do not obstruct the ventilation slots on the top of the unit, or place objects directly over them.

Cleaning

When the unit gets dirty, wipe it with a clean, soft, dry cloth. If necessary, wipe it with a soft cloth dampened with mild soapy water, then a fresh cloth with clean water. Wipe dry immediately with a dry cloth. NEVER use benzene, aerosol cleaners, thinner, alcohol or any other volatile cleaning agent. Do not use abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the finish of metal parts. Avoid spraying insecticide near the unit.

Moving the Unit

Before moving the unit, be certain to disconnect any interconnection cords with other components, and make certain that you disconnect the unit from the AC outlet.

Unpacking

The carton and shipping materials used to protect your new receiver during shipment were specially designed to cushion it from shock and vibration. We suggest that you save the carton and packing materials for use in shipping if you move, or should the unit ever need repair.

To minimize the size of the carton in storage, you may wish to flatten it. This is done by carefully slitting the tape seams on the bottom and collapsing the carton. Other cardboard inserts may be stored in the same manner. Packing materials that cannot be collapsed should be saved along with the carton in a plastic bag.

If you do not wish to save the packaging materials, please note that the carton and other sections of the shipping protection are recyclable. Please respect the environment and discard those materials at a local recycling center.

Copyright

Audio-visual material may consist of copyright works which must not be recorded without the permission of the owner of the copyright.

Please refer to relevant laws covering copyright protection.

Copy Protection

This DVD player supports Macrovision copy protection. On DVD discs that include a copy protection code, if the contents of the DVD disc are copied using a VCR, the copy protection code prevents the videotape copy from playing normally.

For Optimal Performance

The receiver is a precision device that is constructed using extremely accurate technology. Soiling or friction affecting the pickup lens or disc drive can impair the image quality. In the worst case, neither video nor audio will be played back. To obtain optimal picture quality, the player should be checked (cleaning and replacement of some parts) every 1,000 hours. Note that this period varies, depending on the

environment (temperature, humidity, dust) in which the

player is used. Do not attempt to clean the pickup

lens yourself.

TERMINOLOGY

Since they share some of the characteristics and technology of CD players, many of the terms and operational concepts used in a DVD player are similar to what you may be familiar with from CD players and changers, or older video disc formats such as Laser Disc.

How-ever, if this is your first DVD product, some of the terms used to describe the features of a DVD player may be unfamiliar. The following explanations should solve some of the mysteries of DVD, and help you to enjoy all the power and flexibility of the DVD format and the DVD.

With the arrival of DVD, disc data capacity has increased dramatically. On a DVD Video disc most of this capacity is taken up by MPEG 2 video and the multichannel movie soundtrack in Dolby Digital and/or DTS. This information is compressed.

Aspect Ratio: This is a description of the width of a video image in relation to its height. A conventional video screen is four units wide for every three units of height, that’s why the ratio is called ”4:3.” Newer wide aspect ratio video displays are 16 units wide for every nine units of height, making them more like the screen in a movie theater. The program material on a DVD may be recorded in either format and, in addition, you may configure the DVD to play back in either format, depending on the features recorded on a disc.

High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI): HDMI has emerged as the digital standard for connecting high-definition devices, displays and components, and provides for the pristine transmission of high-definition digital video and digital audio via a single cable. HDMI is the first and only digital interface for consumer electronics devices that can carry uncompressed highdefinition video, compressed or uncompressed multichannel audio and command data, allowing customers to obtain pure digital picture and sound directly from the source (as it was meant to be seen and heard).

USB On-the-Go: Due to its widespread acceptance, USB is becoming the de facto industry standard for connecting peripherals to PCs and laptops. Many of the new peripherals using USB are also portable devices.

As these portable devices increase in popularity, there is a growing need for them to communicate directly with each other when a PC is not available – for instance, in consumer electronics products.

The USB On-the-Go technology addresses this need for mobile interconnectivity.

Title: For a DVD, a title is defined as an entire movie or program. There can be as many chapters within a title as the producers decide to include. Most discs include only one title, but some may have more than one, to give you a “Double Feature” presentation.

Chapter: DVD programs are divided into chapters and titles. Chapters are the subsections programmed into a single title on a disc, and may be compared to the individual tracks on an audio CD.

RGB Video: This is a new form of video signal that eliminates many of the artifacts of traditional composite video signals by splitting the signal into the three fundamental colors Red, Green and Blue (RGB). With an RGB connection (via SCART), you will see greater picture resolution and eliminate many picture imperfections such as the moiré patterns often seen on checkered patterned cloths. However, in order to benefit from RGB video, you must have a video display with an RGB compatible SCART input.

Progressive Scan: DVD offers progressive scan video outputs for use with compatible high-resolution televisions and projectors. Before DVD, no consumer medium could store, transmit or display video with full resolution. To conserve bandwidth, analog compression (interlacing) is employed: first the odd-numbered lines of a frame are displayed, followed by the even-numbered lines. The result is that only half of the video image is drawn at one time; the viewer’s brain must reassemble the complete image. This is

acceptable, if the monitor is not too large and if there is not too much motion in the image. Large displays and fast-moving images reveal the limitations of this system. Thanks to DVD’s immense data capacity, images are now stored intact (progressively), so that all the lines in each frame (odd and even) are shown at the same time. But because most TVs cannot handle a progressive signal, conventional DVD players generate an interlaced output for compatibility. This JBL DVD player is among the select few DVD players with true progressive scan video output (NTSC and PAL) for use with compatible TVs and CRT projectors, and with all plasma, LCD and DLP display devices via the component video output. The result is 40% greater light output than a conventional TV and a stunningly detailed high-definition image, along with an almost complete absence of visible scanlines and motion artifacts. Of course, traditional Y/Pr/Pb component video, SCART, S-video and composite video outputs are included for use with conventional televisions and projectors.

Multiple-Angle: DVDs have the capability to show up to four different views of the same scene in a program. When a disc is encoded with multiple-angle information, pressing the Angle button will enable you to switch between these different views. Note that at present, few discs take advantage of this capability and, when they do, the multiple-angle technology may only be present for short periods of time within the disc. Producers will usually insert some sort of icon or graphic in the picture to alert you to the availability of multiple viewing angles.

Reading: This is a message that you will see after you´ve loaded the disc and the tray has closed. It refers to the fact that the player must first examine the contents of the disc to see if it is a CD or DVD, and then extract the information about the type of material on the disc, such as languages, aspect ratios, subtitles, number of titles and more. The slight delay while the contents of the disc are read is normal.

Resume: The operation of the Stop button on the DVD works differently from what you are used to on CD players. On a traditional CD player, when you press the Stop button, the unit does just that – it stops playback. On a CD player, when you press the start button again, the disc starts from the beginning. With the DVD, however, you have two options when playing DVD discs. Pressing Stop once will stop playback, but it actually puts the unit in the Resume mode. This means that you can turn the machine off and, when you press play the next time, the disc will resume or continue from the point on the disc where the Stop button was pressed. This is helpful if you are watching a movie and must interrupt your viewing session but wish to pick up where you left off. Pressing the Stop button twice will stop the machine in a traditional manner and, when the disc is played again, it will start from the beginning.

In resume mode, the cover of the DVD will be displayed, if available. Otherwise, the JBL screen will appear.

DivX: DivX is the name of a revolutionary new video codec which is based on the MPEG-4 compression standard for video. This DVD player will playback discs created with DivX software. The DVD player’s playback functionalities of DivX video discs will vary depending on the DivX software version used for creating your movies. For more information about the different software versions of DivX, please go to www.divx.com

NOTE: Due to differences in the format of certain discs, it is possible that some discs may include a mix of features that are not compatible with the DVD. Similarly, although the DVD is capable of a wide range of features, not all discs include every capability of the DVD system. For example, although the DVD is compatible with multi-angle discs, that feature is only possible when the disc is specially encoded for multipleangle play. In addition, the DVD is capable of playing back both Dolby Digital and DTS soundtracks, but the number and types of tracks available will vary from disc to disc. To make certain that a specific feature or soundtrack option is available, please check the options noted on the disc jacket.

Playback capability for CD-R, CD-RW, WMA, JPEG, MP3, DivX, VCD/SVCD, DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-RW and DVD+RW discs may vary due to variations in the quality of the disc and the recorder used to create the disc.

The CS3/CS5 is compatible with most discs recorded with files encoded using MP3 or Windows Media® 9, as well as JPEG still images. However, note that variations in the encoder or codec used and the bit rate of the encoding may affect the CS’s ability to play back a specific disc. As a result, we cannot guarantee complete compatibility with all encoders and versions of the codecs. For best results, we recommend that MP3 files be encoded at bit rates ranging between 32kbps and 320kbps. WMA files should be encoded at bit rates between 64kbps and 320kbps. Although the CS system is capable of playing some WMA 9 files, not all features of version 9 are supported. JPEG files should contain no more than 5 megapixels, and the file size should be no larger than 5Mb.

Upgradeability via Internet

The ”firmware” controlling the functionality of the JBL CS system is fully upgradeable. In the event of future improvements to its operations and features, it will be possible to download firmware upgrades from www.jbl.com. All you have to do is create a CD-R with the data and insert it in the DVD for an automatic upgrade.

Remote IR Output: This connection permits the IR sensor in the receiver to serve other remote controlled devices. Connect this jack to the “IR IN” jack on JBL or other compatible equipment.

Remote IR Input: If the CS3/CS5’s front-panel IR sensor is blocked due to cabinet doors or other obstructions, an external IR sensor may be used. Connect the output of the sensor to this jack.

TV Audio Input: If your screen is connected to the CS by an HDMI, component, S-video or composite cable, connect the analog output of your TV to this input. If you have your TV connected to the CS with a SCART cable, an audio connection to the TV input is not necessary.
