3 INTRODUCTION
Introduction
Thank you for choosing the Harman
Kardon DVD 5.
The DVD 5 is a multipurpose
five-disc player, capable of playing both DVD
discs and conventional CD audio discs with the
highest fidelity.To enable you to get the maximum quality from DVDs, the DVD 5 is equipped
with the latest in design techniques, including
advanced 10-bit video digital-to-analog connectors (DAC) and component video outputs, to
ensure that you get all the quality inherent in
today’s DVD medium. In addition, Harman
Kardon’s audio heritage continues into the digital video era with audiophile-grade AKM output
DACs to ensure that the audio quality matches
the superb video. Of course, both coaxial and
optical digital audio outputs are available for
direct connection to A/V receivers or processors
so that you may take advantage of Dolby
Digital* and DTS
®
soundtracks.When playing
audio CDs, the playback quality is state-of-theart, matching that of the finest players available
while delivering the convenience of a five-disc
changer.
A wide range of programming features makes it
easy to program an evening’s worth of entertainment, selecting from tracks on multiple
discs.When playing DVDs, easy-to-understand
on-screen menus and icons make it simple to
change languages, soundtracks, subtitles or
aspect ratio, while a parental-lock function
enables you to control which discs may be
viewed by younger members of the household.
DVD players are among the fastest growing
consumer electronics products ever brought to
market, but this may, nevertheless, be the first
DVD player you’ve owned. Although many of
the features of the DVD 5 resemble those of
standard CD changers or players, there are a
number of functions that you may be unfamiliar
with. To ensure that you are able to take advantage of all the power and flexibility the DVD 5
has to offer, we encourage you to review this
manual. That small investment in your time will
pay major dividends in the enjoyment you will
get from proper use of the DVD 5.
If you have additional questions about this
product, or its installation or operation, that are
not answered in this manual, please contact
your dealer, as he is your best source of
local information. You may also contact
Harman Kardon via e-mail through our Web site

4 SAFETY INFORMATION
Safety Information
Verify Line Voltage Before Use
Your DVD 5 has been designed for use with
120-volt AC current. Connection to a line voltage other than that for which it is intended can
create a safety and fire hazard and may damage the unit.
If you have any questions about the voltage
requirements for your specific model, or about
the line voltage in your area, contact your selling dealer before plugging the unit into a wall
outlet.
Do Not Use Extension Cords
We do not recommend that extension cords be
used with this product. As with all electrical
devices, do not run power cords under rugs or
carpets or place heavy objects on them.
Damaged power cords should be replaced
immediately by an authorized service depot
with cords meeting factory specifications.
Handle the AC Power Cord Gently
When disconnecting the power cord from an
AC outlet, always pull the plug, never pull the
cord. If you do not intend to use the unit for
any considerable length of time, disconnect the
plug from the AC outlet.
Do Not Open the Cabinet
There are no user-serviceable components
inside this product. Opening the cabinet may
present a shock hazard, and any modification
to the product will void your guarantee. If water
or any metal object such as a paper clip, wire
or a staple accidentally falls inside the unit, disconnect it from the AC power source immediately, and consult an authorized service station.
Installation Location
■To assure proper operation, and to avoid the
potential for safety hazards, place the unit
on a firm and level surface.When placing
the unit on a shelf, be certain that the shelf
and any mounting hardware can support the
weight of the product.
■ Make certain that proper space is provided
both above and below the unit for ventilation. If this product will be installed in a cabinet or other enclosed area, make certain
that there is sufficient air movement within
the cabinet.
■ Do not place the unit directly on a carpeted
surface.
■Avoid moist or humid locations.
■Avoid installation in extremely hot or cold
locations, or an area that is exposed to
direct sunlight or heating equipment.
■ Do not obstruct the ventilation slots on the
top of the unit, or place objects directly over
them.
Cleaning
When the unit gets dirty, wipe it with a clean,
soft, dry cloth. If necessary, wipe it with a soft
cloth dampened with mild soapy water, then a
fresh cloth with clean water. Wipe immediately
with a dry cloth. NEVER use benzene, aerosol
cleaners, thinner, alcohol or any volatile cleaning agent. Do not use abrasive cleaners, as they
may damage the finish of metal parts.Avoid
spraying insecticide near the unit.
Unpacking
The carton and shipping materials used to protect your new receiver during shipment were
specially designed to cushion it from shock and
vibration. We suggest that you save the carton
and packing materials for use in shipping if you
move, or should the unit ever need repair.
To minimize the size of the carton in storage,
you may wish to flatten it. This is done by carefully slitting the tape seams on the bottom, and
collapsing the carton down to a more twodimensional appearance. Other cardboard
inserts may be stored in the same manner.
Packing materials that cannot be collapsed
should be saved along with the carton in a
plastic bag.
If you do not wish to save the packaging materials, please note that the carton and other sections of the shipping protection are recyclable.
Please respect the environment and discard
those materials at a local recycling center.
Moving the Unit
Before moving the unit, be certain to disconnect any interconnection cords with other components, and make certain that you disconnect
the unit from the AC outlet.
IMPORTANT NOTE: To avoid damage to the
DVD 5, which may not be covered by the warranty, be certain that all discs are removed from
the unit before it is moved. Once the DVD 5 is
installed, discs may be left in the unit when it is
turned off, but the unit should NEVER be
moved with discs left in any of the positions of
the disc tray.

5 DVD COMPATIBILITY & TERMINOLOGY
DVD Compatibility & Terminology
The DVD 5 is more than a DVD player; it will
play the following disc formats:
■ Both 5-inch (12cm) and 3-inch (8cm) discs
■ CD audio discs
■ DTS audio discs
■ CD-RW audio discs
■ DVD movie discs
However, it will NOT play the following:
■ DVD discs with a Region Code other than
the one the player is set for.
■ DVD discs with PAL format video
■ DVD-ROM data discs
■ DVD-RAM discs
■ VCD discs
■ CD-R discs
■ CD-I discs
■ CD-G discs
■ SVCD discs
■ Photo CD discs
■ MP3 Audio Discs
NOTE: Due to differences in the format of
certain discs, it is possible that some discs may
include a mix of features that are not compatible with the DVD 5. Similarly, although the
DVD 5 is capable of a wide range of features,
not all discs include every capability of the DVD
system. For example, although the DVD 5 is
compatible with multi-angle discs, that feature
is only possible when the disc is specially
encoded for multiple-angle play. In addition, the
DVD 5 is capable of playing back both Dolby
Digital and DTS soundtracks, but the number
and types of tracks available will vary from disc
to disc. To make certain that a specific feature
or soundtrack option is available, please check
the options noted on the disc jacket.
■ Playback of DTS audio discs requires connec-
tion to a processor or receiver with a DTS
decoder.
■ Playback capability for CD-RW discs may
vary due to variations in the quality of the
CD-RW disc and the recorder used to create
the disc.
Since they share some of the characteristics and
technology of CD players, many of the terms
and operational concepts used in a DVD player
are similar to what you may be familiar with
from CD players and changers, or older video
disc formats such as Laser Disc. However, if this
is your first DVD product, some of the terms
used to describe the features of a DVD player
may be unfamiliar. The following explanations
should solve some of the mysteries of DVD, and
help you to enjoy all the power and flexibility of
the DVD format and the DVD 5.
Aspect Ratio: This is a description of the
width of a video image in relation to its height.
A conventional video screen is four units wide
for every three units of height, making it almost
square. Newer wide aspect ratio video displays
are 16 units wide for every nine units of height,
making them more like the screen in a movie
theater. The program material on a DVD may be
recorded in either format and, in addition, you
may configure the DVD 5 to play back in either
format, depending on the features recorded on
a disc.
Chapter: DVD programs are divided into chapters and titles. Chapters are the sub-sections
programmed into a single title on a disc.
Chapters may be compared to the individual
tracks on an audio CD. Press the Menu button
to see a listing of the chapters on a disc.
Component Video: This is a new form of
video signal that eliminates many of the artifacts of traditional composite video signals by
splitting the signal into a separate luminance
channel and two color difference signals.With a
component video connection you will see
greater picture resolution and eliminate many
picture imperfections such as the moiré patterns often seen on checked patterned cloths.
However, in order to benefit from component
video you must have a video display with
Y/Pr/Pb component video inputs. Do not
connect the component video outputs of the
DVD 5 to the standard composite or S-Video
inputs of a TV or recorder.
Title: For a DVD, a title is defined as an entire
movie or program. There may have as many
chapters within a title as the producers decide
to include. Most discs include only one title, but
some may have more than one, to give you a
“Double Feature” presentation. Press the Title
button to see a listing of the titles on a disc.
When a disc has only one title, pressing the title
button may show a list of the chapters.
Multiple Angle: DVDs have the capability to
show up to four different views of the same
scene in a program. When a disc is encoded
with multiple-angle information, pressing the
Angle button will enable you to switch between
these different views. Note that at present, few
discs take advantage of this capability and,
when they do, the multiple-angle technology
may only be present for short periods of time
within the disc. Producers will usually insert
some sort of icon or graphic in the picture to
alert you to the availability of multiple-angle
scenes.
Reading: This is a message that you will see
when you first press the Play button. It refers to
the fact that the player must first examine the
contents of the disc to see if it is a CD or DVD,
and then extract the information about the type
of material on the disc, such as languages,
aspect ratios, subtitles, number of titles and
more.The slight delay while the contents of the
disc are read is normal.
Resume: The operation of the Stop Button on
the DVD 5 works differently from what you are
used to on CD or CD players. On a traditional
CD player, when you press the Stop button, the
unit does just that: it stops playback. On a CD
player, when you press the start button again,
the disc starts from the beginning. With the
DVD 5, however, you have two options when
playing DVD discs. Pressing Stop once will stop
the playback, but it actually puts the unit in the
Resume mode.This means that you can turn
the machine off and, when you press play the
next time, the disc will resume or continue from
the point on the disc where the Stop button
was pressed. This is helpful if you are watching
a movie and must interrupt your viewing session but wish to pick up where you left off.
Pressing the Stop button twice will stop the
machine in a traditional manner and, when
the disc is played again, it will start from the
beginning.
