Precautions

Installation

• Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too cold—between 5°C and 35°C.

• Install the System in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat buildup in the System.

DO NOT install the System in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or vibration.

• Leave sufficient distance between the System and the TV.

• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference with TV.

Power sources

• When unplugging the System from the wall outlet, always pull on the plug, not the AC power cord.

DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet hands.

Moisture condensation

Moisture may condense on the lenses inside the System in the following cases:

• After starting to heat the room

• In a damp room

• If the System is brought directly from a cold to a warm place

Should this occur, the System may malfunction. In this case, leave the System turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, then plug it in again.

Internal heat

•

A cooling fan is inside the unit to prevent heat buildup.

For safety, observe the following carefully:

• Make sure there is good ventilation around the unit. Poor ventilation could overheat and damage the unit.

• DO NOT block the ventilation openings or holes. If they are blocked by a newspaper or cloth, etc., the heat may not be able to get out.

Others

• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the System, unplug the AC power cord and consult your dealer before operating any further.

• If you are not going to operate the System for an extended period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet.

If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and consult your dealer.

Additional Information

Learning More about This System

Before Operating the System

Playable Disc Types:

• If you play back an NTSC disc with this setting set to “PAL,” you can watch the playback pictures (the disc will be reproduced using “PAL 60” format), but the TV screen may roll over upward and downward rapidly.

• If you play back a PAL disc with this setting set to “NTSC,” you can watch the playback pictures, but the following symptoms may occur:

– The items on the disc menu will be blurred, and be shown

slightly shifted when highlighted.

– The aspect ratio of the picture may differ from the original

aspect ratio.

– The picture movement is not smooth.

• Notes on MP3/WMA/JPEG/MPEG-4 discs

– MP3/WMA/JPEG/MPEG-4 discs are required a longer

readout time than regular CDs. (It depends on the complexity of the group/file configuration.)

– Some MP3/WMA/JPEG/MPEG-4 files cannot be played

back and will be skipped. This results from their recording processes and conditions.

– This system can play back MP3/WMA/JPEG/MPEG-4

files with the extension code <.mp3>, <.wma>, <.jpg>, or <.asf> (regardless of the letter case—upper/lower).

• About audio format

Linear PCM:

–

format used for CDs and most studio masters.

–

Dolby Digital:

Dolby Laboratories, which enables multi-channel encode to create the realistic surround sound.

–

DTS (Digital Theater Systems):

audio, developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc., which enables multi-channel like Dolby Digital. As the compression ratio is lower than for Dolby Digital, it provides wider dynamic range and better separation.

– When playing back a DVD Audio disc recorded by MLP

(Meridian Lossless Packing; a lossless audio compression system that can completely recreate the PCM signal), the signals recognized as the linear PCM signal, however, no indicator lights up in the display window.
