Cautions on Handling
efore turning the power switch on
• Check once again that all connections are correct and that there are no problems with the connection cables. Power is supplied to some of the circuitry even when the unit is
• set to the standby mode. When traveling or leaving home for long periods of time, be sure to unplug the power cord from the power outlet.
Image persistence (image burn-in)
• Do not leave the still images of the disc menu, DVD-A1UDCI menu, etc., displayed on the TV screen for long periods. This can result in image persistence (image burn-in) on the screen.
About Condensation
• If the DVD-A1UDCI unit is moved from a cold place to a warm place, or installed in a room subject to rapid temperature rise from a heater, etc., condensation (dew) may form on the internal parts of the unit (operating parts and lenses). If used in this condition, the DVD-A1UDCI will not operate correctly and damage may result. If condensation is formed on the unit, leave the DVD-A1UDCI unit for1 to 2 hours with the power OFF before use.

About Media
Getting Started
Inserting a Disc
Set the disc with the labeled side facing up.
• Make sure the disc tray is fully open when inserting the disc.
• Place the disc horizontally in the tray, aligned with the tray guide.
If a disc that cannot be played is loaded or the disc is loaded up­sidedown, “NO DISC” is displayed on the player’s display.
NOTE
Only load one disc at a time. Loading two or more discs can damage
• the unit or scratch the discs. Do not use cracked or warped discs or discs that have been repaired
• with adhesive, etc. Do not use discs on which the sticky part of cellophane tape or
• labels is exposed or on which there are traces of where labels have been removed. Such discs can get caught inside the player and damage it. Do not use discs with special shapes, as they could damage the
• player.
Do not push the disc tray in by hand when the power is turned off.
• Doing so could damage the set.
Inserting an SD Memory Card
Insert an SD Memory Card in the direction of the arrow into the SD
• CARD slot with the label facing up.
About Handling of Media
Do not get ngerprints, oil or dirt on discs.
• Take special care not to scratch discs when removing them from
• their cases. Do not bend or heat discs.
• Do not enlarge the hole at the center.
• Do not write on the labeled (printed) surface with ball-point pens,
• pencils, etc., or stick new labels on discs. Water droplets may form on discs if they are moved suddenly from
• a cold place (outdoors for example) to a warm place, but do not try to dry them off using a hairdryer, etc. Do not eject an SD Memory Card or turn off the DVD-A1UDCI’s
• power while the card content is in playback. This may result in malfunction or loss of the card’s data. Do not attempt to open or modify SD Memory Cards.
SD Memory Cards and les can be damaged by static electricity.
• Do not touch the metal contacts of an SD Memory Card with your
ngers.
Do not use warped SD Memory Cards.
• After use, be sure to remove any disc or SD Memory Card, and store
• it in its proper card case, to avoid dust, scratches and deformation. Do not store discs in the following places:
1.Places exposed to direct sunlight for long periods of time
2.Dusty or humid places
3.Places exposed to heat from heating appliances, etc.
Cleaning Discs
If there are ngerprints or dirt on discs, wipe them off before using
• the disc. Use a commercially available disc cleaning set or a soft cloth to
• clean discs.
Gently wipe the disc from the
inside towards the outside.
Do not wipe with a circular
motion.
NOTE
Do not use record spray, antistatic agents, or benzene, thinner or other solvents.

When outputting bitstream signals to two HDMI devices, the signals are output to both HDMI devices if they both support bitstream signals. Of only one device support bit stream, LPCM is output to the device, which does not support bit stream. When outputting LPCM signals to two HDMI devices, it is not possible to output multi-channel audio signals with different numbers of channels to the two HDMI devices. When the number of channels of multi-channel audio supported by the connected 2 HDMI devices are different, the audio signal output to each mode becomes as follows:
HDMI Auto (Dual) :
• Outputs multi-channel audio of less number of channels to both devices. If the supported number of channels is 7.1 channel and 5.1 channel, respectively, 5.1 channel audio is output. If the supported number of channels is multi-channel and 2-channel (or 2.1-channel), multi­channel and 2-channel are output.
HDMI Auto (Independent) :
• Multi-channel audio is output as is to the device, which supports more number of channels. LPCM audio of 2-channel is output to the other device. We recommend you use this mode when outputting to both an AV Amp and TV.

Copyright protection system
In order to play back digital video and audio such as BD-Video or DVD-Video via HDMI connection, both the player and TV or the AV Amp need to support the copyright protection system known as HDCPHigh-bandwidth Digital Content Protection System). HDCP is copyright protection technology comprised of data encryption and authentication of the connected AV device. The DVD-A1UDCI supports HDCP.
NOTE
If a device that does not support HDCP is connected, video and audio are not output correctly. Read the
• owner’s manual of your television or AV Amp for more information. The audio signal from the HDMI output terminal (sampling frequency, number of channels, etc.) may
be limited by the HDMI audio specications of the connected device regarding permissible inputs. For example, if the HDMI audio specication of the connected device is 5.1 channels, 5.1-channel audio will
be automatically output even when playing back 7.1 channels by the DVD-A1UDCI. In this case, analog audio output will also be 5.1-channel. Audio signal input may not be supported depending on the HDMI compatible monitor (projector, etc.)
• being used. When the DVD-A1UDCI is connected to this kind of device, audio signals are not output from the HDMI terminal.

NOTE
Dolby TrueHD/Dolby Digital Plus/DTS-HD audio signals are not output with this connection. When outputting Dolby TrueHD/Dolby Digital Plus/DTS-HD audio signals, do so with an HDMI connection (vpage 13, “Using an HDMI Cable to Connect to an AV Amp or Television”). Super Audio CD’s DSD signal cannot be output. Also, during CD layer playback, 44.1 kHz/16-bit Linear PCM is output. Do not output DTS audio signals to an AV Amp that does not support DTS. Playing back a BD/DVD disc with recorded DTS content can generate noise and even damage your speakers. When connecting with an optical transmission cable (sold separately), make sure the plug shape aligns with the socket, and insert fully.

DENON LINK Connection q Making a Jitter-free Connection
BD
When you connect the DVD-A1UDCI to a DENON LINK 4th compatible AV Amp using DENON LINK cable and HDMI cable, during BD playback the DVD-A1UDCI’s circuit operates with the AV Amp’s master clock signal. (The clock control indicator of the DVD-A1UDCI lights.) This enables transmission of high-quality digital audio with minimal jitter.
AV Amp
NOTE
The jitter-free function does not work except during BD playback. In this case, the video signal is output from the HDMI OUT terminal, and the audio signal from the DENON LINK terminal.
