To connect the AM loop antenna

(i) Hold

@ Insert

• If the AM loop antenna wire or speaker cords are covered

with vinyl, remove the vinyl to expose the tip of the arrtenna by twisting the vinyl.

• Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other terminals, connecting cords arrd power cord. Also, keep the arrtennas away from metallic parts of the System,

connecting cords, arrd the AC power cord. This could cause

poor reception.

To connect the speaker cords Connect the right speaker to the RIGHT terminals, and tire left speaker to the LEFT terminals.

@ Open @ Insert @ Close

When connecting tire speaker cords, match the polarity of the speaker terminals:

• For LOW terminals: Red cord to (+) and black cord m (-). For HIGH terminals: Grey cord to (+) arrd blue cord to (-).

In addition to the above discs, this system can play back audio data recorded oil CD Text, CD-G (CD Graphics), and CD-Extra.

• The followiug discs cannot be played back: DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, DVD+R, DVD+RW, CD-I (CD-I

Ready), CD-ROM, Photo CD. etc. Playing back these discs will generate noise and damage the speakers.

• In this manual, "file" and "track" are interchangeably used for MP3/WMA/JPEG operations.

* Note on Region Code DVD players and DVDs have their own Region (;ode numbers. This System cau play back ouly DVDs recorded with tile NTSC

DVDVide0--digital audioformats

The System can play back tile following digital audio

formats.

• Linear PCM: Uncompressed digital audio, the same format used for CDs and most studio masters.

• Dolby Digital: Compressed digital audio, developed by Dolby Laboratories, which enables multi-channel encode

to create the realistic surround sound.

• DTS (Digital Theater Systems): Compressed digital audio, developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc., which enables multi-channel like Dolby Digital. As the compressiou ratio is lower than for Dolby Digital, it provides wider dynamic range and better separation.

When playing a multi-channel encoded DVD, the System properly converts these nmlti-channel signals into 2

channels, and emits the downmixed sound from tile

speakers.

• To enjoy the powerful sound of these multi-channel encoded DVDs, connect a proper decoder or an amplifier with a proper built-in decoder to the digital output terminal

Oil tile re;.tr.

IMPORTANT: Before playing a disc, make sure of the following...

• Turn on the TV and select all appropriate input mode on

the TV to view the pictures or on-screen displays on the TV screen.

• For disc playback, you call change the Mtial setting to
