Precautions

Contents

English

Installation

• Install the System in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat build-up 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.

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

• Leave sufficient distance between the System and the TV.

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

• Make sure there is good ventilation around the unit. Poor ventilation could overheat and damage the unit. –A cooling fan is inside the unit to prevent heat build-up.

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.

DO NOT disassemble the System since there are no user serviceable parts inside.

• 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.

Learning More about This System

Introduction

Playable Disc Types:

• About audio format Linear PCM:

–

format used for CDs and most studio masters.

–

Dolby Digital:

Dolby Laboratories, which enables multi-channel encode to create 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.

• If you use a DVD-RAM with a cartridge, take the disc out

of the cartridge before inserting.

Connections

Changing the Color System and Scanning Mode:

• If you play back an NTSC disc with the color system set to

“PAL (PROG),” the disc will be reproduced using “PAL 60” format, however, if the TV does not support this format, the screen may not display properly.

• If you play back a PAL disc with the color system set to

“NTSC (PROG),” 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.

• You cannot change the scanning mode to progressive in the

following cases: – When your TV does not support the progressive video

input.

– When you have not connected your TV to the unit using

a component video cord.

• When you play back an NTSC disc in progressive scanning

mode, the System outputs the NTSC signal regardless of the color system settings.

Daily Operations—Playback

Listening to the Radio:

• If you store a new station into an occupied preset number,

the previously stored station in that number will be erased.

• When you unplug the AC power cord or if a power failure

occurs, the preset stations will be erased in a few days. If this happens, preset the stations again.

Playing Back a Disc:

• On some DVD, SVCD, or VCD discs, the actual operations

may be different from what is explained in this manual, due to the programming and disc structure; such differences are not a malfunction of this System.

• Some DVD Audio discs prohibit downmix. When you play back such a disc, “LR ONLY” appears on the display and the System plays back the left front and right front signals.

• When playing back a DVD Audio disc recorded in MLP (Meridian Lossless Packing; a lossless audio compression system that can completely recreate the PCM signal), the signals are recognized as the linear PCM signals, however, no indicator lights up on the display.

• For MP3/WMA playback... – MP3/WMA discs require a longer readout time than

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

– Some MP3/WMA files cannot be played back and will

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

– When making MP3/WMA discs, use ISO 9660 Level 1

or Level 2 for the disc format.

– This System can play back MP3/WMA files with the

extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the letter case—upper/lower).

– It is recommended that you make each MP3/WMA file at

a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at bit rate of 128 kbps. This System cannot play back files made at bit rate of less than 64 kbps.

–

Play List:

by the recording equipment. The control screen for the

play list appears only when the disc has the play list. – Resume is not available. – For details about DVD-VR format and play list, refer to

the manual of the recording equipment.

• For JPEG files playback... – It is recommended that you record a file at 640 x 480

resolution. (If a file has been recorded at a resolution of more than 640 x 480, it will take a long time to be shown.)

– This System can play only baseline JPEG files*.

Progressive JPEG files* or lossless JPEG files* cannot be played. * Baseline JPEG format: Used for digital cameras,

• For MPEG-1/MPEG-2 playback... – The stream format should conform to MPEG system/

program stream.
