WARNING

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

DO NOT OPEN

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION

• If this product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other), it will fit into the outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

• If this product is equipped with a three-wire grounding type plug, a plug having a third (grounding) pin, it will only fit into a grounding type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding type plug.

POWER-CORD PROTECTION — Power-supply

cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.

OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING — If an

outside antenna or cable system is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with regard to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. See Figure A.

LIGHTNING — For added protection for this

product during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.

POWER LINES — An outside antenna system

should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

OVERLOADING — Do not overload wall outlets,

extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

ELECTRIC SERVICE EQUIPMENT

• If the product has been dropped or damaged in any way.

• When the product exhibits a distinct change in performance — this indicates a need for service.

REPLACEMENT PARTS — When replacement

parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.

Differences in Disc

How to Proceed in This

Composition

DVD

DVDs are divided into units referred to as titles, and titles are divided into chapters. A DVD which contains a movie may have only one title with many or no chapter divisions. Karaoke DVDs may have many titles, assigning a title to each song on the DVD. Menu screens do not belong to any title.

DVD player functions generally apply to titles on a DVD or chapters within a selected title. The player functions available may also vary from title to title, depending on the DVD. When DVDs have a unique title division, it should be noted that search and program functions may be affected.

Chapter 1 Chapter 2

Title 1

Chapter 1

DVD

Video CD/CD

Video CDs and CDs are divided into units referred to as tracks (Video CD tracks may also be referred to as scenes). One song generally corresponds to one track. Some tracks are further divided into units referred to as indexes. Video CDs with PBC (Playback Control) also contain menus recorded on the disc which enable easy access to the contents of the disc.

When played back on a DVD player, both Video CDs and CDs are considered to be a single title, regardless of the number of tracks.

Set up the changer.

Before you can begin to enjoy the benefits of the DVD format, it is first necessary to set up the changer to output the video and audio corresponding to your system. The section “Setting Up the Changer” starting on page 20 explains how to use the Setup Navigator, a function that automatically sets up your changer. The Setup screen menus, described in the section starting on page 39, are also used in a number of other functions. Learning the procedure for operating these menus will make using this changer much easier and more enjoyable.

Load the disc rack and play discs.

When all the connections and setups have been made, you are ready to play your DVDs, Video CDs, and CDs with the changer. The section “Getting Started Using Your DVD Changer” starting on page 23 outlines the basic changer operations.

Organize the discs in the disc rack.

Track 2 Track 4Track 3Track 1 Track 5

The section “Disc Management” on page 30 helps you manage the discs you have loaded in the rack by making use of the Sub Setup screen menus. By taking advantage of this changer’s text input and cross-referencing capabilities, it is quick and easy to find the disc you want.

Enjoy the other features available.

Using the Setup Navigator

The Setup Navigator has been designed to simplify the process of getting the DVD changer ready to perform. Designed as a series of on-screen multiple-choice questions, the Setup Navigator automatically sets the audio, video, and language settings according to how the questions are answered. Once this procedure is complete, it will be possible to begin using the DVD changer to enjoy DVDs.

The procedure on this page describes the operations necessary to function within the Setup Navigator screens. A detailed description of the contents of each question that appears on the screen can be found on the following pages.

When setting up for the first time

If the disc rack is moving or if a disc is playing, the Setup Navigator will not be displayed as described in the procedure on this page. Therefore, it is recommended to wait until the rack has stopped moving before using the Setup Navigator. If a disc is playing, be sure to press

STOP 7 before proceeding.

2 Press SETUP.

When SETUP is pressed for the first time, the following screen appears. Though the Setup Navigator may be used more than once, this screen only appears the first time SETUP is pressed.

3 Move the cursor control joystick up or down

to make a selection.

• If you are going to use the Setup Navigator, it is not necessary to change the setting on the first screen. Please proceed to the next step.

• If you do not want to set up the changer using the Setup Navigator, move the cursor control joystick to select “Not Used” at this time.

The Setup Navigator function may still be used at a later time in manual Setup screen menu operation (page 39).

4 Press ENTER.

The selection is entered and the next Setup Navigator screen appears.

Getting Started Using Your DVD Changer

Loading DVDs, Video CDs and CDs into the Changer– DVD/Video CD/CD

You can load as many as 300 discs into the rack. Disc positions in the rack are numbered clockwise from 1 to 300 starting after the single loader slot. The procedure on this page describes how to load discs starting from the number 1 position. However, the same procedure can be followed when you want to change or add more discs at a different time.

3 Load discs in the rack.

• The number 1 position is immediately to the left of the single loader slot.

• Load discs with the label side facing to the right. (When loading double-sided DVDs, load the disc in the rack with the label denoting the contents you want to view facing the right.)

• Do not place more than one disc in the same rack position as that may damage the disc and cause the changer to malfunction.
