Please note the following points when setting up the Receiver/Player:

This Receiver/Player set is designed to play video and audio signals from compact discs (DVD and CD), and receiving Digital Television signals. Any other use is expressly prohibited.

If the Receiver/Player is subject to a sudden change in temperature, for example if 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 Receiver/Player is designed for use in dry rooms. If you do use it in the open, please ensure that it is protected from moisture, such as rain or water splashes.

Place the Receiver/Player on a hard, level surface. Do not place any objects such as newspapers on the Receiver/Player or any cloth or similar articles underneath it.

Do not place the Receiver/Player close to heating units or in direct sunlight, as this will impair cooling.

Do not insert foreign objects in the air vents or the disc compartment.

Never open the Receiver/Player casing under any circumstances. The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage resulting from improper handling.

Do not place any vessels such as vases on the Receiver/Player, as they may spill liquid, thus presenting a safety risk.

Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical devices. Even if the Receiver/Player is switched off, it can be damaged by a lightning strike to the mains. Always remove the mains plug during an electrical storm.

If the Receiver/Player is unable to scan DVDs or CDs perfectly, use a standard commercial 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.

This Receiver/Player is designed to the highest technological and environmental standards. Only ecologically compatible, high quality materials have been used. The batteries included are free of mercury and cadmium. The range of materials used has been deliberately restricted and all the larger plastic parts have been labelled. This Receiver/Player is easily dissassembled to make servicing easier and optimise recycling.

DVD and video CD features

You can recognise DVDs, s-video CDs and video CDs by the logo on the label. Depending on the contents of the DVD, s-video CD or video CD (films, video clips etc.), they may carry 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, s-video CD or video CD using the menu of the Receiver/Player on the television screen.

Some of the Receiver/Player’s functions, such as video strobe or slow motion, can not be selected when playing back a video CD. This depends on the video CD.

Special DVD features

DVDs have a title menu which provides an overview of the titles available and the passages they contain.

Some of the Receiver/Player’s functions, such as slow motion, freeze-frame and auto-play, can also be controlled by the DVD itself. It is therefore possible that the freeze-frame function, for example, cannot be selected during certain scenes.

Many DVDs have audio tracks recorded in up to eight languages.

This enables you to select the language you prefer.

Many DVDs are recorded by the manufacturer with subtitles in several languages. You can select subtitle superimposition from up to 32 different languages.

Since films are released in different parts of the world at different times, all receiver-players world-wide are given a regional code. Your Receiver/Player has been given region code 2.

DVDs can also be given a supplementary regional code. If you insert a DVD with different code to that of the Receiver/Player, a reference to the regional code appears on the television screen. The Receiver/Player will not be able to play back the DVD.

Before playback

Preparation

1 Switch on the television and if necessary select the channel for the

Receiver/Player.

2 If a HiFi system is connected to the Receiver/Player, switch on the HiFi system

and select the appropriate audio input for the Receiver/Player.

3 Press » « to switch on the Receiver/Player. It will turn on in TV mode.
