Before Use (Continued)
Notes on DVDs
Some playback operations of DVDs may be intentionally fixed by software manufacturers. As this unit plays DVDs according to disc content designed by the software manufacturer, some playback features of the unit may not be available or other functions may be added.
Refer also to the instructions supplied with the DVDs. Some DVDs made for business purposes may not be played on the unit.
Regional code of the unit and DVDs |
2 |
This unit is designed and manufactured |
|
for playback of Region 2 encoded DVD |
software. The region code on the labels
of some DVD discs indicates which type of the unit can play those discs. This unit can play only DVD discs labeled 2 or ALL. If you try to play any other discs, the message “Check Regional Code” will appear on the TV screen. Some DVD discs may not have a region code label even though their playback is prohibited by area limits.
Note on DTS-encoded CDs
When playing DTS-encoded CDs, excessive noise may be exhibited from the analog stereo output. To avoid possible damage to the audio system, turn down the volume before playing back such discs, adjust the volume gradually, and keep the volume level low. To enjoy DTS Digital SurroundTM playback, an external 5.1 channel DTS Digital SurroundTM decoder system must be connected to the digital output of the unit.

It is forbidden by law to copy, broadcast, show, broadcast via cable, play in public, or rent copyrighted material without permission.
This product features the copy protection function developed by Macrovision. Copy protection signals are recorded on some discs. When recording and playing the pictures of these discs on a VCR, picture noise will appear.
This product incorporates copyright protection technology that is protected by method claims of certain U.S. patents and other intellectual property rights owned by Macrovision Corporation and other rights owners. Use of this copyright protection technology must be authorized by Macrovision Corporation, and is intended for home and other limited viewing uses only unless otherwise authorized by Macrovision Corporation. Reverse engineering or disassembly is prohibited.

Before Use (Continued)
Precautions
Handling the Unit
When shipping the unit
The original shipping carton and packing materials come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the unit as it was originally packaged at the factory.
When setting up the unit
The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR, or radio may be distorted during playback. In this case, position the unit away from the TV, VCR, or radio, or turn off the unit after removing the disc.
To keep the surface clean
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray, near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will leave marks on the surface.
Cleaning the Unit
To clean the cabinet
Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine, or thinner, as these might damage the surface of the unit.
To obtain a clear picture
This unit is a high-tech, precision device. If the optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn, the picture quality will be poor.
Regular inspection and maintenance are recommended after every 1,000 hours of use. (This depends on the operating environment.)
For details, please contact your nearest dealer.
Notes on Discs
Handling Discs
Do not touch the playback side of the disc.
Hold the disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not get on the surface.
Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.
Storing Discs
After playing, store the disc in its case.
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct sunlight, as there may be a considerable temperature increase inside the car.
Cleaning Discs
Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor picture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the center outward.
Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for older vinyl records.

Notes
•The remote control may not operate when there is any obstruction between the remote control and the remote sensor.
•Strong ambient light sources such as a fluorescent lamp or direct sunlight may cause unreliable operation.
•Using a TV with the same type of infrared remote control facing the same direction may cause incorrect operation.

PREPARATION
Connecting to an AV Receiver Equipped with a Digital Decoder
Connect the COAXIAL audio output jack on this unit to the corresponding in jack on your AV receiver.
Set the setup menu correctly after connecting
Some AV receivers have digital decoders that use the bitstream signal directly from Dolby Digital or DTS inputs. If your AV receiver has a digital decoder for Dolby Digital or DTS inputs, set the output signal from your unit to DOLBY DIGITAL/PCM or Stream/PCM for that input. Otherwise, set the output to PCM (see “Initial Settings” on page 28 for details).
DO NOT select DOLBY DIGITAL/PCM or Stream/ PCM for the Digital Audio Output setting in the setup menu when connecting to an AV receiver not equipped with a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder (with a coaxial connecting cord).
Merely attempting to play a disc may cause a screeching noise that could be harmful to your ears and damage the speakers. Be sure to select PCM for the Digital Audio Output setting.
