Caring for Optical Discs
Handling of Discs:
Please hold the disc by gripping the rim or by placing the index finger in the
central hole. Never touch the signal surface, which is shiny. This applies to
both sides of double sided discs.
Cleaning of Discs:
Finger prints or stains on the surface of the disc may cause signal loss.
Depending on the degree of the stain, the reflected luminosity from the signal
surface may be weakened, resulting in degraded picture quality. Therefore,
please use a soft cloth and wipe in a radiating manner from the center of the
disc to the outer rims when cleaning the disc surface.
If the surface of your disc is very dirty, please wipe the disc with a moist cloth,
followed by a dry soft cloth to remove all water stains.
Labeling Side
Surface
Labels
Never use electrostatic prevention products or solutions which contain
benzene, thinner or any other vaporizing substances, as they may damage
the disc surface.
Never add labels or adhesive tapes on the discs and be careful not to
scratch or damage the disc surface.
Tapes
Storage of Discs:
To prevent discs from becoming bent or deformed, they should be vertically
kept in the disc storage case. To prevent damage, avoid leaving discs in your
car, where they may be subject to direct sunlight and high temperature.
Please thoroughly read the "Instruction Points for Attention" on the discs.
Cleaning the DVD Player:
The control panel and the case of the player will only require occasional wiping with a soft cloth. Areas with
stubborn stains can be cleaned with a soft cloth dipped in a neutral detergent. To prevent damaging the player,
never use vaporizing solutions.
Disc Accessories:
Do not use any disc accessory to improve the audio quality, disc protective solutions or lens cleaner. These
products may cause problems.

Preparing and Using the Remote Control
Installing the Batteries
If the remote control only operates when you get closer to the DVD Player, it may mean the batteries are weak.
Please replace the two batteries simultaneously with two new batteries (Size AAA, R03, 1.5V) of the same type.
Please note the positive (+) and negative (-) polarity shown inside the battery compartment on the remote.
1. Push down and then outwards to
remove the battery compartment cover.
2. Insert Batteries following polarity
marked inside compartment.
3. Slide Cover back into place.
R03 1.5V
Important Note about Batteries
When changing batteries, it is not recommended to use a mix old and new batteries or batteries of different
brands simultaneously.
If the unit will not be used for an extended length of time, it’s wise to remove the batteries before storage.
The life of the batteries depends on the amount of usage. With typical use, a battery life of approximately 6
months can be expected.
Operation of Remote Control
When using the control, please aim at the device's remote control sensor, located in the DVD
Player’s Display area. A 30 degree angle is recommended for best operation.

Connecting the DVD Player to your TV / Receiver
Determining the Video & Audio Connections You Will Use
The first step to using your new DVD Player is to make the cable connections that will allow you to see the video
and hear the audio on your TV and optional Stereo Receiver. Your DVD Player has multiple Video and Audio
outputs. Generally, you will only use one Video and one Audio output and any one time. The type of outputs you
use will be determined by the capabilities of your Television or receiver. It is recommended that you use the highest
quality output that your TV or receiver will support.
Television Connections (One Required)
In order to use your DVD Player, your TV must support at least one of the Video Input types shown below. To get
started, identify the best Video Connection shown below that your TV offers and proceed to that section. If you are
using your TV’s speakers for audio, rather than a separate receiver or amplifier, you will use the Stereo Audio In,
outlined in sections 1 and 2.

Receiver/Speaker Connections (Optional)
To enjoy the Dolby and/or DTS Digital Surround Sound most DVD movies are presented in, you’ll need a 5.1
Channel Sound System. Whether you choose an inexpensive, self-powered 5.1 Channel Speaker System, or a
more advanced setup with a Digital Receiver powering a set of High-Performance Speakers, your player provides
the outputs required. The 5.1 Channel Analog outputs can connect directly to a 5.1 Channel Speaker System (the
most economical method) or a Dolby-Ready Receiver. For the ultimate in Digital Audio, use the player’s Optical or
CoAxial Digital Audio outputs with a Digital Receiver powering high-performance Speakers.

Composite / S-Video & Stereo Audio Connections
1
Typical Connection - Connecting to a TV with Composite Video In and Stereo Audio In
If your TV has only a single Video Input jack, typically a yellow-colored plug, you will use the Composite Video output
of the DVD Player for the Video Connection. We’ll also assume your TV has Red and White Stereo Audio In
connectors. You will use these for the Audio Connection.
Use the included Video Cable (Yellow) to connect the Video Out of the DVD Player to the Video In of your TV.
Connect the Stereo Audio outputs (Red-Red, White-White) of the DVD Player to the matching Inputs of your TV.
Connect the Power Cord to the DVD Player and AC Power Outlet.
Turn on the TV and DVD Player (power switch on back) and select the Video Input on your TV. On some models,
this may be called “Input 1” or “Aux In”. You should now see the DVD Player’s splash screen on your TV.
Change the ANALOG Setting in the DVD Player’s Setup Menu to 2CH. (See pg 40)

TV
If your TV has an S-Video Input, it’s recommended that you use this connection. S-Video separates brightness and
color signals, resulting in higher video quality than Standard Composite Video.
You must purchase a separate S-Video Cable for this connection (not included).
Connect the S-Video Out from the DVD Player to the S-Video In of your TV.
If you are not using a separate receiver for audio, connect the Stereo Audio outputs (Red - Red, White - White) of
S-Video Connector
the DVD Player to the corresponding Inputs of your TV
Connect the Power Cord to the DVD Player and AC Power Outlet.
Turn on the TV and DVD Player (power switch on back) and select the S-Video Input on your TV. On some
models, this may be called “Input 2” or “Video 2”. You should now see the DVD Player’s splash screen on your TV.
