Special features of your DVD player
Your DVD player 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 and
audio system or stereo television.
Other features of DVD video include the choice of audio channel and
language, choice of subtitle language, and various camera recording
angles. Your DVD player is suitable for DVDs with regional code 2.
In addition to DVDs it can play MP3 CDs, JPEG encoded (photo) CDs,
KODAK picture CDs, video CDs, S-Video CDs and audio CDs.

4 Operating manual
Disc formats
Your DVD player can play back CD-R, CD-RW, VCD 2,0, Super VCD,
DVD R, DVD RW discs.
Due to the difference in quality of the recording media and the quality
of the recording itself, it can occasionally occur that a home-made DVD
or CD cannot be read. This does not indicate a malfunction of the DVD
player.
You have to finalise your own CD-R/-RW recordings.
Please remember that to create CD-Rs or CD-RWs the settings in your
burning program must conform to the ISO 9660 standard.
When MP3 or JPEG CDs are played back, individual tracks/pictures
may be skipped or incorrectly played back and displayed. This can
be due to the disc configuration, the encoder software or the hardware
used for the recording.
Audio CDs (CDDA) meet the appropriate specification and bear the
corresponding logo. Copy-protected CDs do not meet this specification and do not bear the logo. These CDs can cause playback errors.

SET-UP AND SAFETY
___________________________
This DVD player is designed to playback video and audio signals from
compact discs (DVDs and CDs).
Any other use is expressly prohibited.
If the DVD player is subject to a sudden change in temperature, for example if it is brought in from the cold to a warm room, connect it to the mains
supply and let it stand for at least two hours before you insert a DVD.
The DVD player is designed for use in dry rooms. If you do use it outdoors,
make sure it is protected from moisture such as dripping or splashing water.
Place the DVD player on a hard, level surface. Do not place any objects
such as newspapers on the DVD player, or any cloth or similar items underneath it.
Do not place the DVD player directly on top of an AV receiver or a subwoofer. The laser optics are sensitive to temperature and shocks.
Do not place the digital player close to heating units or in direct sunlight,
as this will impair cooling.
Do not insert foreign objects in the disc compartment of the DVD player.
Never open the DVD player casing under any circumstances. No warranty
claims are accepted for damage caused by incorrect handling.
Do not place any vessels filled with liquid, such as vases, on the DVD player,
as they may spill liquid, thus presenting a safety risk.
Do not place any objects such as burning candles on the DVD player.
Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical devices. Even if the DVD player
is switched off, it can be damaged by a lightning strike to the mains. Always remove the power plug during a thunder storm.
If the DVD player cannot scan DVDs or CDs perfectly, use a commercially
available cleaning-CD to clean the laser optics. Other cleaning methods
may damage the laser optics.
Always keep the disc compartment closed to prevent dust from collecting
on the laser optics.
Observe the local guidelines for disposing of packaging materials and recycling devices.
Note:
Do not connect any other equipment while the device is switched on. Switch
off the other equipment as well before connecting it.
Only plug the device into the mains socket after you have connected the external devices.
Make sure the power plug is freely accessible.

Note:
Do not connect any other equipment while the device is switched on. Switch off the other equipment as well before connecting it.
Only plug the device into the mains socket after you have connected the external devices.
Connecting the television
You have three options, depending on the sockets you have on
your television:
– For the best picture quality, connect the EURO-AV socket using a
fully assigned EURO-AV (SCART) cable.
– The standard connection for many devices, and one which pro-
vides good quality, is via the S-VIDEO OUT socket and the
AUDIO OUT RCA sockets.
– The simplest option which still offers sufficient quality is to connect
the VIDEO OUT socket and AUDIO OUT sockets using RCA cables.
Required adjustments to the television
After connecting up to the output sockets, they must be activated.
The setting procedure is described in the section ”Selecting the
video output (EURO AV/RGB or S-video)“ on page 16.
If the DVD player is connected to a television with a 16:9 screen
format, follow the setting procedures in the “Selecting the television screen format” section on page 17.
The colour standard of the DVD player must be matched to the colour standard of your television. The setting procedure is described
in the section “Setting the TV system (TV norm)“ on page 15.
Connect the socket »
EURO AV ©TV« directly to the television,
and not indirectly via a video recorder. This can cause difficulties
when playing back copy-protected CDs.
CONNECTION/PREPARATION

Connecting a digital multi-channel amplifier or
digital two-channel audio system
The digital multi-channel sound of a DVD can best be decoded and
played back with a multi-channel audio/video amplifier (Dolby*
digital decoder or DTS**).
1 Plug a standard RCA cable into the »DIGITAL AUDIO OUT«
of the DVD player and into the corresponding socket on the
digital multi-channel amplifier;
or
remove the protective cap of the optical digital output and plug
an optical digital cable into the »

cket of the DVD player and into the corresponding socket of
the digital multi-channel amplifier.
Notes:
Keep the protective cap in a safe place and replace it on the
device if it is not to be used for a longer period of time.
Even if you are using a digital connection, you should still make
an analogue audio connection as it is possible, depending on
the disc type, that the signal cannot be output via the »
DIGI-
TAL AUDIO OUT
« socket (see page 14 for connection).

DVD features
You can recognise a DVD by the logo on the label.
The discs have one or more tracks depending on the content of the
DVD.
Each track can contain one or more chapter. Selecting the track
and chapter is simple and convenient.
You can control and direct playback of a DVD using the menu of
the DVD player on the television screen.
Special DVD features
DVDs have an overview of all the titles and title sections in the title
menu.
Some of the DVD player functions, such as slow motion, freezeframe and auto-play, can also be controlled by the DVD itself. Because of this you may not be able to select these functions during
certain scenes.
Many DVDs have audio tracks recorded in up to eight languages.
You can select the language you prefer.
Many DVDs are recorded by the manufacturer with subtitles in several languages. You can select subtitles from up to 32 languages.
Films are released at different times in different parts of the world.
This is why all DVD players all over the world have a regional
code. The regional code for your DVD player is 2.
DVDs can also have other regional codes. If you insert a DVD with
a different regional code into the DVD player, a message appears
on the television screen with the regional code. The DVD cannot be
played.
If DVD access has not been authorised, you must change the
access level code (1 ... 8) (see the section on authorising the content of the DVD on page 35).

S-VCD/VCD features
You can recognise S-VCD/VCDs (video CDs) by the logo on the label.
Depending on the contents of the S-VCDs/VCDs (films, music videos etc.),
the discs may carry one or more tracks.
Like audio CDs, VCDs/S-VCDs also have a track structure.
You can create S-VCDs/VCDs using the PBC (playback control) system for
track navigation. This depends on the editing and burning software used.
You can control and direct playback of the S-VCD/VCD using the menu of
the DVD player on the television screen.
You cannot select some of the functions on the DVD player (slow motion,
camera angle, marking scenes) when you are playing an S-VCD/VCD. This
depends on how the S-VCD/VCD was created.
Depending on how they were created, S-VCDs can have various subtitles
and dubbed languages.
PBC (playback control)
PBC is a navigation option for S-VCD/VCDs. PBC information is burned
onto the disc when it is manufactured. PBC switches between the playlist
structure (the menu on the S-VCD/VCD) and manual selection by the user.
PBC is activated when it is ready for delivery. PBC and program information on the S-VCD/VCD specify the navigation options. If the disc has PBC,
»PBC« appears in the display.
If PBC is switched off, the S-VCD/VCD is just like an audio CD (with tracks)
with regard to navigation. You can select a track by using »
1 … 0«, »5«
or »
6«, press »8« to start playback and press »7« to end playback.
Switching PBC (playback control) on and off
1 Switch off the PBC function during playback with » .«.
– Display: »PBC Off«.
2 Switch on the PBC function during playback with ».«.
– Display: »PBC On«.

File format features
MP3 CDs
MP3 stands for MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3 and comes from the Motion Picture Expert Group (MPEG) standard, which was developed
for compressing film data.
The MP3 format enables audio files to be saved on a computer
with a sound quality similar to that of a CD. This only requires about
10% of the original data quantity. The standard encoding bit rate
for MP3 files is 128 kbps. Generally, the higher the bit rate of an
MP3 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 files can be downloaded from the Internet and then burned
onto a CD-ROM. Your DVD player can read the ID3 tag from the
file header, which contains information on the song and the artist,
and displays this in the info menu/status display.
MP3 CDs contain sound recordings. They can be played in the
normal manner on an audio system. The digital signals transmitted
during MP3 playback are PCM encoded, regardless of the audio
output setting. The signals are output with the same data rate as
the music source (possibilities are: 32 kbps – 320 kbps, ideal:
128 kbps).
MP3 files can be organised into folders and subfolders similar to
files on a computer.
JPEG CDs
JPEG stands for Joint Picture Experts Group. This process was designed to compress picture files.
JPEG files can be burned onto a CD along with other file types.
These CDs are known as file CDs or mixed-mode CDs. For example, the CD could contain MP3 files (audio) and JPEG files (for
example to display album covers).
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.

KODAK Picture CDs
This method was developed for archiving analogue photographs.
After they are developed, small photographs are scanned with a
resolution of 1536 x 1024 pixels and burnt onto a CD in JPEG format.
A KODAK picture CD can contain up to 40 pictures. In addition to
the picture files, a KODAK picture CD can also contain imaging
software which enables the user to play the CD on a PC, edit the
pictures or view a slide show.
Audio CDs
An audio CD is identified by this logo.
Audio CDs only contain 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.

Switching the dynamic range (volume range) on
and off
Dolby digital soundtracks have a very large dynamic volume
range, hence there is a great difference in volume between quiet
and loud tones. When played at high volume this can be a fascinating experience, which may however cause disturbance late at
night.
Simply reducing the volume does not produce pleasing results, and
the dialogue becomes difficult to understand. You need to turn
down the louder sounds and turn up the quieter passages, while retaining the volume of the dialogue.

Troubleshooting
Not every picture or sound problem is caused by a defect in your DVD player. Cables that have
accidentally been disconnected, damaged CDs and flat batteries for the remote control will impair functioning.
If the following actions do not rectify the problem, consult an authorised dealer.
DVD-R/RWs in DVD video format, as well as CD-Rs and CD-RWs in CD-DA and MP3 format
can be played. Due to the difference in quality of the recording media and the quality of the recording itself, it can occasionally happen that some recorded DVDs or CDs cannot be read. This
does not indicate a malfunction of the DVD player.
Cleaning discs
Wipe the dirty disc with a cloth from the centre outwards in a straight line.
Do not use any solvents such as benzene, thinners, conventional cleaner or anti-static spray for
vinyl records.
Software information
We wish to point out explicitly that only operating software authorised by GRUNDIG is permissible for the DVD player. This operating software is available from specialist dealers or will
be available shortly on the GRUNDIG websites and www.grundig.de. Any instance of operating software from a dubious Internet source being loaded to the device will impair functioning
and also, since it is an unauthorised intervention, invalidate any claims under the guarantee.
GRUNDIG will refuse to refund any costs resulting in such cases. Any repair costs in such cases,
even those occurring within the guarantee period, are to be paid by the customer.

INFORMATION
____________________________________
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 “
V”, coloured green, or green & yel-
low.
