OPERATING THE REMOTE CONTROL

SYSTEM SETUP

Battery Installation

1. Push down and out on the battery Compart-

ment cover to remove it.

2. Insert the two AAA batteries into the battery

compartment of the remote control, making

sure the + and - signs on the batteries and

inside the battery compartment match up.

3. Replace the battery compartment cover.

Notes:

Do not mix batteries from different manu-

facturers, nor old ones with new.

If the remote control will not be used for an

extended period of time, remove the

batteries to prevent damage-causing

corrosion.

Remove dead batteries immediately to

prevent damage-causing corrosion.

If battery leakage occurs, wipe the battery

liquid from the battery compartment, then

replace both batteries.

Always replace both batteries at the same

time, using new, fully charged batteries.

Life expectancy of batteries may vary

depending on amount of use.

Using the Remote Control

Point the remote control at the remote

sensor on the DVD receiver. When the signal is

received from the remote, the unit will function

accordingly. The remote will operate to approxi-

mately 16' from the remote sensor at an angle

of around 30 each direction.

Notes:

Do not direct the remote sensor toward any light source, such as direct sunlight or a strong fluorescent light, as it may cause the unit to not operate correctly. When other remote controls are used nearby or when the remote is used near equipment using infrared rays, interference may occur. Placing an object on the remote control may cause it to inadvertently depress a button, changing a function and shortening battery life. Do not glaze the front of the DVD receiver with colored glass, as it may cause interference with normal operation of the controller. Make sure there is no barrier between the remote control and remote sensor, as it could prevent the unit from receiving the signal. Do not spill water or put wet items on the remote control. Never disassemble remote control.

BATTERIES INCORRECT USE OF BATTERIES MAY

CAUSE THEM TO LEAK, CORRODE OR EXP LODE.

SPEAKERS

ARRANGEMENT OF SPEAKERS

FUNCTIONS SYSTEM SETUP

The configuration and arrangement of a surround sound system's speakers is critical. For maximum listening enjoyment, refer to the Arrangement of Speakers section in this manual prior to connecting speakers.

Surround Sound Speakers Front or main right and left speakers; center speaker

These three speakers provide extensive sound imaging and augment the dynamic effect of the audio. A movie's principal dialogue comes through these speakers.

Rear or surround sound speakers

These two speakers provide 3-D dynamic sound effects, and create an enveloping atmosphere, as they add background sounds. .

Subwoofer speaker

Provides rich and powerful bass, adding a powerful dimension of realism.

Note: Audio recorded for the center speaker and subwoofer will be assigned to the front and 3-D rear speakers to obtain the optimum 3-D surround sound effect.

1.TV set or screen

2. Front or main left speaker

3.Subwoofer

4.Center speaker

5.Front or main right speaker

10 19

The ideal surround sound speaker configuration may vary according to room size and wall material. The figure below illustrates a typical arrangement.

Hints:

Front or main speakers and central speaker should be placed at the same level and in a way that sound is oriented toward the listener's ears. 3D surround sound or rear speakers should be placed 3' higher than the height of listener's ears. Subwoofer speaker may be placed anywhere within the room, as its location produces little effect on a listener's sensation to sound. To obtain the optimum bass effect, a subwoofer is recommended in home theater systems.
