Special features of your home cinema system
Your DVD receiver provides you with perfect digital video playback
in studio quality.
It also provides superb cinema-quality audio playback – in stereo or
with digital multi-channel sound – depending on the type of DVD or
CD used.
In addition to DVDs, you can also play S-Video CDs, MP3/WMA
CDs and audio CDs. Additionally, the DVD receiver can read homemade DVD Rs and DVD RWs with video data and CD Rs and
CD RWs with audio or image data (JPEG/Kodak pictures).

Dolby Pro Logic II, Dolby Digital and DTS
With its Dolby Pro Logic II decoder, the DVD receiver has the latest
surround decoder technology. It generates surround sound from the
stereo signal. However, the rear channel consists of two separate
stereo channels, whose frequency range is not restricted. This
means Pro Logic II produces a sound zone with a completely new
sense of space, location and stability.
Dolby Digital
, on the other hand, is a digital sound system designed
for completely independent multi-channel audio playback. It carries
five full audio channels and a low frequency effects (LFE) channel. In
general, Dolby Digital signals can also consist of fewer than 5 channels (for example 2.0 or 3.0).
DTS Digital Sur
round is a digital sound system for differentiated 5.1
multi-channel audio reproduction which creates three-dimensional
surround sound effects.

SET-UP AND SAFETY___________________________
Please note the following information when setting up the home cinema system:
The DVD receiver and loudspeakers are designed for playing back video
and audio signals at home. Any other use is expressly prohibited.
If you want to set up the DVD receiver on wall shelves or in cupboards,
please ensure that the device is adequately ventilated. There must be at least
10 cm of space at the side, above and behind the device.
Please note when setting up the DVD receiver that furniture surfaces are
coated with various types of paint and plastic, which often contain chemical
additives. These additives may cause corrosion to the feet of the unit. This
may leave stains on the surface of the furniture which can be difficult or
impossible to remove.
If the DVD and loudspeakers are subjected to sudden changes in temperature, for example if they are brought in from the cold to a warm room, let
them stand for at least two hours without inserting a disc. Do not connect
them to the mains supply during this time.
The DVD receiver and loudspeakers are designed for use in dry rooms. You
must make sure that they are protected from moisture such as rain or water
splashes.
Place the DVD receiver on a hard, level surface. Do not place any objects
such as newspapers on the DVD receiver, or any cloth or similar articles
underneath it.
The laser lens is sensitive to temperature. Therefore, do not place the DVD
receiver near heating units or in direct sunlight, as this will impair cooling.
Do not insert foreign objects in the disc compartment of the DVD receiver.
Never open the casing of the DVD receiver and loudspeakers. No warranty
claims are accepted for damage resulting from improper handling.
Do not place any vessels such as vases containing fluid on the DVD receiver
and loudspeakers. These may be knocked over and spill fluid on the electrical components, thus presenting a safety risk. Do not place any objects such
as burning candles on the DVD receiver or loudspeakers.
Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical devices. Even if the DVD receiver is switched off, it can be damaged by a lightning strike to the mains.
Always disconnect the mains and antenna plugs of the DVD receiver during
a storm.
If the DVD receiver cannot scan DVDs or CDs perfectly, use a commercially
available cleaning CD. Other cleaning methods may damage the laser
optics. Always keep the disc compartment closed to prevent dust from collecting on the laser optics.

Connection diagram for the loudspeakers
Setting up the loudspeakers
If possible, set up the front loudspeakers in line with the TV set,
angled slightly towards the listener. The listener and the speakers
should form an equilateral triangle. This creates the best stereo
effect.
The surround loudspeakers should be angled slightly towards each
other at a sufficient distance to the left and right behind the listener.
They should be positioned at ear height, even when wall-mounted.
Set up the central loudspeaker at the midpoint between the two front
speakers, for example above or below the TV set. The best height
for the centre loudspeaker is at head height of the seated listener.
To achieve the best possible bass sound, we recommend that you set
up the subwoofer to the left or right of the front loudspeakers, in
such a way that the sound crosses the room diagonally.
When you are in the middle of the room, you may not be able to
hear the bass tone of the subwoofer sufficiently. This is caused by
what are known as standing waves, which occur between parallel
walls. In this case, simply position the subwoofer at an angle to the
wall.
Avoid placing the loudspeakers in a corner, because this overamplifies the bass tones.
Objects in front of the loudspeakers significantly impair the treble
tones and the stereo effect.

– Connecting to the Euro-AV (Scart) socket using the Euro-AV cable
supplied is the best option, because the video, audio and format
switching signals are all on the same connection.
– If your television has no Euro-AV socket, you can still achieve a
good picture quality by connecting it via the S-VIDEO OUT sockets.
– Alternatively, you can connect it using cinch cables to the VIDEO
OUT sockets for standard picture quality.

2 For medium wave reception, plug the cable of the supplied MW
frame antenna into the »AM LOOP« socket.
Note:
In order to prevent interference, place the MW frame antenna
as far as possible from the home cinema system or other
sources of interference.
Connecting the power cord
1 Plug the power cord (»~AC IN«) into the wall socket.
Note:
If the DVD receiver does not react when the buttons are

area. In this case pull out the mains plug and insert it into the
socket again after a few seconds.
Inserting batteries in the remote control
1 Open the battery compartment by pressing the marked area
and pulling down the cover.
2 When inserting the batteries (2 x 1.5 V, LR 06/UM 3/AA),
observe the polarity marked on the battery compartment.
3 Close the battery compartment.
Note:
If the DVD receiver no longer reacts properly to remote control
commands, the batteries may be flat. Be sure to remove used
batteries. The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage
resulting from leaking batteries.
Environmental note:
Batteries, including those which contain no heavy metal, may
not be disposed of with household waste. Please dispose of
used batteries in an environmentally sound manner. Find out
about the legal regulations which apply in your area.

Additional information for units sold in the UK.
Units sold in the UK are suitable for operation from a 240V ac, 50Hz mains
supply.
The range of multi-system receivers is built to work in most European countries. However, the mains plug and socket system for the UK differs from
many European countries.
This appliance has been supplied with a fitted, non-removable, approved
converter plug for use in the UK. This converter plug is fitted with a 5A rated
fuse.
In case this appliance is supplied with a moulded 2-pin Euro plug only,
which is unsuitable for UK operation, this must be cut off and immediately
disposed of. An approved 13A, 3-pin UK plug should then be fitted by a
qualified electrician.
Note:
The severed Euro plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock
hazard should it be inserted into a socket elsewhere.
If a non-rewireable 3-pin plug or a rewireable 13A (BS1363) 3-pin plug is
used, it must be fitted with a 5A ASTA or BSI approved BS1362 fuse. If any
other type of plug is used it must be protected by a 5A fuse either in the
plug, or at the distribution board. If this type of plug becomes defective,
ensure that the fuse is removed before disposal, to eliminate potential shock
hazard.
If it is necessary to change the fuse in the non-rewireable plug, the correct
type and rating (5A ASTA or BSI approved BS1362) must be used and the
fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost or damaged, the lead and
plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained. Replacement fuse
covers should be obtained from your dealer.
Important:
The wires in the mains lead are colour coded in accordance with the following code:
BLUE – NEUTRAL
BROWN – LIVE
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of your appliance may not correspond with the coloured marking identifying terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
Connect the BLUE coloured wire to plug terminal marked with the letter “N”
or coloured black.
Connect the BROWN coloured wire to the plug terminal marked with the letter “L” or coloured red.
In no circumstance must any of the wires be connected to the terminal marked with the letter “E”, earth symbol “
z”, coloured green, or green & yel-
low.
Replacement mains lead sets can be obtained from your local dealer, or by
contacting Grundig Consumer Relations (01788 570088)
Moulded 3-pin lead set, suitable for UK use:
Ref: Leadset UK 8290-991-224

Setting the loudspeaker configuration
Switching on
1 Switch on the DVD receiver from standby by pressing »9« on
the remote control or »ON/OFF« on the device.
Setting the distance to the listening position
Ideally, all the speakers in a home cinema system, should be set up
at equal distances from the listener. The central speaker should also
be positioned in line with the front speakers. If these preconditions
are met, you do not need to set a time delay for the sound, because
the default setting is »0ms«.
However, central and front loudspeakers are often set up closer to
the listener. In this case, the sound must be electronically delayed by
a fraction of a second. This is done using the sound time delay function.
If the central speaker is no more than 50 cm from the line between
the front speakers, the setting is not necessary. If the distance is
greater, you must find out the difference between the distances from
the listener to the front speakers and from the listener to the central
speaker. Enter the travel time of the sound in milliseconds (ms)
(»0ms« to »5ms«). One metre roughly corresponds to 3 milliseconds.
When using surround speakers, you must also find out the difference between the distances from the listener to the front speakers
and from the listener to the surround speakers. Enter the travel time
of the sound from »0ms«, »3ms« to »12ms«, »15ms«. One metre
roughly corresponds to 3 milliseconds.
1 Select the »Audio« menu item with »
a
« or »s« and press
»OK« to confirm.
2 Select »CNTR CTRL« with »
A
« or »S« and press »OK« to
confirm.
3 In the third column, press »

and press »OK« to confirm.
4 Select »REAR CTRL« with »
A
« or »S« and press »OK« to
confirm.
5 In the third column, press »
A
« or »S« to make the setting
and press »OK« to confirm.
Checking the volume with a test tone
A test tone can be created for each connected speaker to check the
volume level. »Off« is the default value.
1 Select the »Sound« menu item with »
a
« or »s« and press
»OK« to confirm.

please read the section entitled “Setting the volume level on
all channels”.
5 To stop the test tone, press »
A
« or »S« to select »Off« in the
third column and press »OK« to confirm.
Setting the volume level on all channels
Depending on the current operating mode (see the loudspeaker
indicator on the DVD receiver), you can adjust the loudspeaker
volumes according to your preference. You can make this setting
either with or without the test tone. The volume impression should be
about the same for all channels. The individual volumes can be
adjusted within a range of -5 to +5 dB.
When entering the settings, if no button is pushed for more than
5 seconds, the DVD receiver quits the menu automatically. However,
altered settings are saved.

You can make the setting for the optical output for connection to an
external device here.
1 Select the »Audio« menu item with »
a
« or »s« and press
»OK« to confirm.
2 Select the output format (»AC3«, »DTS«, »MP3/WMA« or
»Others«) using »

3 Press »OK« repeatedly to make the setting.
– »PCM«: The digital output converts into PCM audio format for
digital recorders. »PCM« is the default value.
– »Original«: The digital output provides the original audio
format.
– »Off«: The digital output does not process any signals.
Setting the dynamic range
Dolby Digital and DTS soundtracks have a very large dynamic
volume range, hence there is a great difference between quiet and
loud sounds. When played at full volume this can be a fascinating
experience, but it can cause disturbance late at night. Simply reducing the volume does not produce satisfactory results, since the
dialogue can be hard to understand.
You can turn down the louder sounds and turn up the quieter passages, while retaining the volume of the dialogue. This function is
called the dynamic range.
1 Select the »Audio« menu item with »
a
« or »s« and press
»OK« to confirm.
2 Select »DRC« with »
a
« or »s« and press »OK« to confirm.
3 Make the setting with »
A
« or »S« and press »OK« to confirm:
– »Off« or »On«. »Off« (the default setting) means uncom-
pressed dynamics (during the day), »On« means compressed
dynamics (late at night).

Switching between two-channel and
multi-channel mode
The DVD receiver has a Dolby Pro Logic II Decoder, which changes
the stereo signal into a Dolby surround signal during disc playback,
thus providing a high quality surround sound effect.
Pro Logic II has two playback modes, namely music and movie. In
music mode, there is a shelf filter, which acts gently on high frequencies on the surround channels. It provides a natural, convincing
sound effect, because surround sound information is normally subject to slight treble attenuation due to reflection and absorption.
Movie mode, on the other hand, does not use a surround filter, but
stereo surround outputs instead.
The loudspeaker configuration (two-channel or multi-channel)
appears in the loudspeaker display on the DVD receiver.
1 To switch between two-channel and multi-channel mode, press
»
K« on the remote control repeatedly.
– Display during switching: briefly »PLII OFF«, »PLII
MUSIC« or »PL II MOVIE«.
– Display on the DVD receiver in Dolby Pro Logic II mode:

Disc formats
Your DVD receiver can play DVD R/DVD RW in DVD video format and
CD R and CD RW in CD-DA Format or MP3/WMA format.
Due to difference in quality of the recording media and the quality of the
recording itself, it can occasionally happen that a home-made DVD R/DVD
RW or CD R and CD RW with audio data cannot be read. This does not
indicate a malfunction of the DVD receiver. The causes for this can be faulty
software or hardware settings, or even the CD itself. Should such problems
arise, contact the customer services of your CD burner or software manufacturer or search for information about this, for example online.
If you make a DVD R/DVD RW or CD R/CD RW, please observe the legal
regulations and do not infringe the copyright of third parties. Recordings
you make yourself (DVD R/DVD RW, CD R and CD RW) have to be
finalised.
When MP3/WMA CDs are played back, individual tracks may be skipped
or incorrectly played back. This can be due to the disc configuration, the
encoder software or the hardware used for the recording.
Audio CDs (CD-DA) meet the specification and bear the corresponding
logo. Copy-protected CDs do not meet this specification in some circumstances and do not bear the corresponding logo. These CDs can cause playback errors.
DVD features
You can recognise a DVD by the logo on the label. Depending on the content of the DVD, the discs contain one or more titles. Each title may contain
one or more chapters. Titles and chapters can be selected easily and conveniently.
You can control and direct playback of a DVD using the menu of the DVD
receiver on the television screen.
Many DVDs have audio tracks recorded in up to eight languages. This
enables you to select the language you prefer. Also, many DVDs are recorded by the manufacturer with subtitles in several languages. You can select
subtitles from up to 32 different languages.
Your DVD receiver has been given region code 2. DVDs with other regional
codes cannot be played.
VCD/S-VCD features
You can tell VCDs/S-VCDs (video CDs) by the logo on the label. Depending
on the contents of the VCD/S-VCD (films, music videos etc.), the discs may
carry one or more titles. Like audio CDs, VCDs/S-VCD have a track structure.
DISC FEATURES ____________________________________
Page 30
30
You can control and direct playback of the VCD/S-VCD using the menu of
the DVD receiver on the television screen.
S-VCDs can contain different dubbed languages and subtitles.
PBC (playback control)
VCDs/S-VCDs can be created using the PBC (playback control) system for
track navigation. PBC switches between the playlist structure (the menu on
the VCD/S-VCD) and manual selection by the user.
PBC is activated after the VCD/S-VCD has been scanned. This function
allows interactive playback of the VCD/S-VCD if you follow the menu on the
television screen.
MP3/WMA CD features
MP3 stands for MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3, WMA for Windows Media Audio.
Both formats enable audio files to be saved on a computer with a sound
quality similar to that of a CD. The standard encoding bit rate for MP3 files
is 128 kbps. The fundamental rule applies: the higher the bit rate of a file,
the better the sound quality.
Most MP3 files on the Internet are encoded at 128 or 160 kbps. 160 kbps is
considered CD quality. MP3/WMA files can be downloaded from the Internet and then burned onto a CD ROM disc using suitable PC software.
In MP3/WMA mode, the terms “album” and “file” are very important.
“Album” corresponds to a folder on a PC, “File” to a file on a PC or a CDDA track (title).
Audio CD features
An audio CD (CD-DA) is identified by this logo. Audio CDs contain only
sound recordings. They can be played in the normal manner on an audio
system. The individual tracks are stored in a sequence. There are no folders.
As well as audio CDs, the DVD receiver can also read CD R and CD RW
with audio data.
JPEG/Kodak picture CD features
JPEG stands for Joint Picture Experts Group. This process was designed to
compress picture files.
The files on a JPEG CD can be organised in directories. This structure is similar to that of an MP3 CD. JPEG CDs only contain data in the compressed
JPEG format. This is mostly data from digital cameras or from imaging programs. The data (images) can be displayed individually or in sequence in a
slide show.

Test or replace the batteries of the remote control.
Wrong cable connection, the video or audio connection
cable is faulty:
Check the connections on the DVD player and on the television.
Wrong video dignal selected:
Check the RGB/S-video-switiching (see page 18)
The MUTE function has been activated:
Deactivate this function as described on page 27.
Activate the test tone (see page 19). If you hear a signal
from all the loudspeakers, then the loudspeaker setting
and cabling are correct. In this case the multi-channel
mode is set incorrectly or the inserted disc does not produce multi-channel sound.
Check the multi-channel settings on the DVD receiver.
Check the loud speaker settings in the set-up menu.
The subwoofer has been connected incorrectly:
Check to make sure the subwoofer has been connected
properly.
Make sure the printed side of the disc is facing upwards.
Clean the disc. The DVD receiver cannot read the inserted

Faulty antenna connection:
Check the antenna connection.
Enter the master code »8888«.
Press »RESET« (on the back of the device) or pull out the
mains plug for around two minutes.
Rectifying minor problems
Not every picture or sound problem is caused by a defect in your DVD receiver. Defects can also be
caused by leads having been accidentally pulled out, damaged discs and worn out batteries in the
remote control. If the following measures do not rectify the problem, consult your authorised dealer.
Due to the difference in quality of the recording media and the quality of the recording itself, it can
occasionally happen that a home-made disc cannot be read. This does not indicate a malfunction of
the DVD receiver.
