Safety precautions

Placement

Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct sunlight, high
temperatures, high humidity, and excessive vibration. These condi­tions can damage the cabinet and other components, thereby short­ening the unit’s service life.

Do not place heavy items on the unit.

Voltage

Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload the unit

ENGLISH

and cause a fire.

Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully when
setting the unit up on a ship or other place where DC is used.

AC mains lead protection

Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not dam­aged. Poor connection and lead damage can cause fire or electric
shock. Do not pull, bend, or place heavy items on the lead.

Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the AC
mains lead can cause electric shock.

Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause electric shock.

Foreign matter

Do not let metal objects fall inside the unit. This can cause electric
shock or malfunction.

Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric shock or
malfunction. If this occurs, immediately disconnect the unit from the
power supply and contact your dealer.

Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They contain flam­mable gases which can ignite if sprayed into the unit.

Service

Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is interrupt­ed, indicators fail to light, smoke appears, or any other problem that
is not covered in these instructions occurs, disconnect the AC mains
lead and contact your dealer or an authorized service center. Electric
shock or damage to the unit can occur if the unit is repaired, disas­sembled or reconstructed by unqualified persons.

Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the power
source if it is not to be used for a long time.

Do not place the unit on
amplifiers or equipment
that may become hot.

The heat can damage the
unit.

Maintenance

To clean this unit, wipe with a soft, dry cloth.

≥Never use alcohol, paint thinner or benzine to clean this unit.
≥Before using chemically treated cloth, read the instructions that

came with the cloth carefully.

Anche se l’audio della maggior parte dei DVD è progettato in modo
da essere riprodotto da sei diffusori e le regolazioni della fabbrica per
questa unità presuppongono tale configurazione, quanto segue de­scrive i collegamenti base che permettono di ascoltare il suono dagli
altoparlanti del televisore. Per poter fruire pienamente del potente
suono di 5.1 canali dei DVD, bisogna collegare un amplificatore e sei
diffusori (➡ pagg. 130 e 132).

Hoewel het geluid op de meeste DVD’s bedoeld is voor weergave via zes luid­sprekers en deze speler in de fabriek werd ingesteld voor weergave via een derge­lijk luidsprekersysteem, worden hieronder alleen de basisaansluitingen beschre­ven die geluidsweergave via de luidsprekers van uw tv-toestel mogelijk maken.
Om het dynamische 5.1-kanaals geluid van DVD’s volledig tot zijn recht te laten
komen, moet u een versterker en zes luidsprekers aansluiten (➡ blz. 131 en 133).

Alvorens aan te sluiten

≥Maak het netsnoer los.
≥Raadpleeg ook de gebruiksaanwijzing van het tv-toestel.

Aunque el audio de la mayoría de los DVDs ha sido diseñado para ser repro­ducido a través de seis altavoces y los ajustes de fábrica de este aparato han
sido realizados teniendo esto en cuenta, a continuación se describen las co­nexiones básicas que le permiten disfrutar del sonido a través de los altavoces
de su televisor. Para obtener el máximo beneficio del potente audio de

5.1 canales encontrado en los DVDs, deberá conectar un amplificador y seis
altavoces (➡ páginas 131 y 133).

Antes de hacer la conexión

≥Desconecte el cable de alimentación de CA.
≥Consulte las instrucciones de funcionamiento del televisor.

Den följande beskrivningen förklarar de grundläggande anslutningar, vilka gör
att du kan lyssna på ljudet från TV-apparatens högtalare, trots att ljudet på de
flesta DVD-skivor är avsett för att spelas av via sex högtalare och den här
enhetens fabriksinställningar förutsätter en sådan uppsättning. För att få ut allt
ur det kraftfulla 5.1-kanaliga ljud som återfinns på DVD-skivor måste du anslu­ta en förstärkare och sex högtalare (➡ sidan 131 och 133).

Före anslutning

≥Dra ut nätsladden.
≥Se TV-apparatens bruksanvisning.

Verbind de speler direct met uw tv-toestel.

Verbind de speler niet via een videorecorder wanneer u uw home­entertainment systeem installeert, aangezien de beeldweergave dan
niet normaal kan zijn ten gevolge van de kopieerbeveiliging.

Anslut din enhet direkt till din TV-apparat.

Anslut inte enheten via din videobandspelare när du sätter upp ditt
hemmabiosystem, eftersom det kan förekomma att bilden inte spelas
av som den ska på grund av kopieringsskyddet.
