• Use “AA” (R6P) batteries in this remote control unit.

• Replace the batteries with new ones approximately once a year, though this depends on the frequency with which the remote control unit is used.

• If the remote control unit does not operate from close to the main unit, replace the batteries with new ones, even if less than a year has passed.

• The included battery is only intended for verifying operation. Replace it with a new battery as soon as possible.

• When inserting the batteries, be careful to do so in the proper direction, following the and marks

in the remote control unit’s battery compartment.

• To prevent damage or battery fluid leakage:

• Do not use a new battery with an old one.

• Do not use two different types of batteries.

• Do not short-circuit, disassemble, heat or dispose of batteries in flames.

• Remove the batteries when not planning to use the remote control unit for a long period of time.

• If the batteries should leak, carefully wipe off the fluid from the inside of the battery compartment, and then insert new batteries.

NOTES

• If Dolby Digital audio will be output, connect to a Dolby Digital decoder, and set Dolby Digital audio output to on in the setup mode. (See page 25)

• If DTS audio will be output, connect to a DTS decoder, and set DTS audio output to ON in the setup mode. (See page 25) If output MPEG audio, connect to a MPEG decoder, and set MPEG to ON for audio output in the setup mode.

•

Unless connected to a Dolby Digital decoder, a DTS decoder or an MPEG decoder, set Dolby Digital, DTS and MPEG to off for

audio output in the setup mode. Playing a DVD using incorrect settings may generate noise distortion, and may also damage the speakers. (See page 25)

• The audio source on a disc in the 5.1 channel Dolby Digital surround format cannot be recorded as digital sound by an MD or DAT deck. Set Dolby Digital, DTS and MPEG to OFF for audio output in the setup mode for method 1 only. Playing a DVD using incorrect

• settings may generate noise distortion, and may also damage the speakers. (Refer to page 25 to set ON for Dolby Digital, DTS and MPEG)

(See page 25)

Optical cable (not supplied)

• The optical cable (not supplied) may be damaged if bent at sharp angles. Ensure cables are coiled in loops with a diameter of 15 cm or more when storing them.

• Use a cable which is 3m or shorter.

• Insert cable plugs firmly into the connectors when making connections.

• If a plug has minor scratches or is dirty, clean it with a soft cloth before inserting it into a connector.

NOTES

• Connect the DVD player directly to a TV. If the A/V cables are connected to a VCR, the picture may be distorted due to the copy protection system.

• S-Video output connector The video signals are divided into colour (C) and brightness (Y) signals, achieving a clearer picture. If the TV is equipped with an S-Video input connector, we recommend connecting it to the this product’s S-Video output connector using a commercially available S-Video connection cord.

HOW TO CONNECT TO A TV WITHOUT AUDIO/VIDEO INPUT JACKS

If your TV does not have RCA type audio and video input jacks it is still possible to connect this DVD player to your TV’s 75-ohm coaxial antenna terminal using an optional Stereo Audio/Video RF Modulator. Connect the audio and video outputs of the DVD player to the audio and video inputs on the RF Modulator, and then connect the coaxial output of the RF Modulator (usually marked “TO TV”) to the 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal on your TV. Follow the instruction supplied with the RF Modulator for more details. If your TV’s 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal is already occupied by an antenna or cable box connection, remove that cable from your TV’s antenna terminal and reconnect it to the coaxial antenna input terminal of the RF Modulator (usually marked “ANT IN”), and then connect the RF modulator to your TV’s antenna terminal as described above.

NOTE

• The picture quality from DVD discs will not be as good if the DVD player is connected to the TV’s antenna terminal through an RF Modulator.

The DVD player can also reproduce JPEG files stored on Kodak picture CDs. The user can enjoy picture images on the television set by reproducing picture CDs. * Picture CD is a service to convert photographs taken by a

conventional film camera into digital data and write the data

on a CD. For details of Picture CD, contact a shop that offers this service of Kodak Inc.

Information on MP3, JPEG and WMA discs

• A file with an “.mp3 (MP3)” extension is called an “MP3 file”.

• A file with a “.jpg (JPG)” or “.jpeg (JPEG)” extension is

called a “JPEG file”. The DVD player can play an image file conforming to the Exif* specification.

* This is a file format, Exchangeable Image File format,

established by the Japanese Electronic Industry Development Association (JEIDA).

• A file with a “.wma (WMA)” extension is called a “WMA file”.

• Files whose extensions are other than “.mp3 (MP3)”, “.jpg (JPG)”, “.jpeg (JPEG)” and “.wma (WMA)” will not be listed in the MP3, JPEG, or WMA menu.

• If the file is not recorded in the MP3, JPEG or WMA format, noise may be produced even if the file extension is either “.mp3 (MP3) ”, “.jpg (JPG)”, “.jpeg (JPEG)” or “.wma (WMA)”.

When a disc with MP3,JPEG or WMA files is inserted in the DVD player, the track menu will appear on the TV screen, and the number of tracks is displayed on the front panel.

• An MP3, JPEG or WMA track menu screen appears.

• The “ ” symbol is shown on the top of the group name.

• The “ ” symbol is shown on the top of MP3 files.

• The “ ” symbol is shown on the top of JPEG files.

• The “ ” symbol is shown on the top of WMA files.

• If the picture extends beyond the borders of the screen, a

down arrow “L” appears, indicating that the user can view the rest of the picture on the next page. If an up arrow “K” appears, it indicates that the user can view the rest of the picture on the previous page. The current page number and the number of total pages are shown on the right of the down arrow “L”.

• The system can recognize up to 255 groups (or folders) and up to 256 tracks. (This applies to the case where mixed MP3, JPEG and WMA files are recorded.)

• If no MP3, JPEG or WMA files are found in the group, the group is not displayed.

• The DVD player can reproduce data recorded as per ISO 9660 Level 1, Level 2 or Joliet on the disc.

• It can also play a disc on which data has been recorded in multiple-sessions.

• For more details of recording systems, see the instruction manual for the CD-R / CD-RW drive or the writing software.
