not be recommended.
Digital audio formats
The System can play back the following digital
audio formats.
Linear PCM: Uncompressed digital audio,
the same format used for CDs and most studio
masters.
Dolby Digital *
developed by Dolby Laboratories, which
enables multi-channel encode to create the
realistic surround sound.
3
DTS *
(Digital Theater Systems):
Compressed digital audio, developed by Digital
Theater Systems, Inc., which enables multichannel like Dolby Digital. As the compression
ratio is lower than for Dolby Digital, it provides
wider dynamic range and better separation.
MPEG Audio: Another compressed digital
audio which also enables multi-channel encode
to create the realistic surround sound. However,
this System downmix the multi-channel signals
into 2 channels (decoded PCM) and play it
back.

What is DAB system?
DAB can deliver CD quality sound without
any annoying interference and signal
distortion. Furthermore, it can carry text,
pictures, and data. When transmitting,
DAB combines several programmes (called
“services”) to form one “ensemble.” In
addition, each “service”—called “primary
service”—can also be divided into its
components (called “secondary service”).
A typical ensemble has six or more
programmes (services) broadcast at the same
time.
By connecting the DAB tuner, this receiver
can do the following:
•
Tracing the same programme automatically
—Alternative Reception (see “DAB AF” on
page 40).
It is recommended to use DAB (Digital
Audio Broadcasting) tuner KT-DB1000

ENTERTAINMENT dealer.
• Refer also to the Instructions supplied for
your DAB tuner.

• After starting the heater in the car.
• If it becomes very humid inside the car.
Should this occur, the DVD/CD player may
malfunction. In this case, eject the disc and
leave the receiver turned on for a few hours
until the moisture evaporates.
To keep discs clean
A dirty disc may not play correctly.
If a disc does become dirty, wipe
it with a soft cloth in a straight line
from center to edge.
• Do not use any solvent (for example,
conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner,
benzine, etc.) to clean discs.
To play new discs
New discs may have some rough
spots around the inner and outer
edges. If such a disc is used, this
receiver may reject the disc.
To remove these rough spots, rub the edges
with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.
Do not use the following discs:

More about this receiver
Basic operations
Turning on the power
• By pressing SOURCE on the receiver, you
can also turn on the power.
Selecting the sources
• When no disc is loaded in the receiver,
“DISC” cannot be selected.
• Without connecting to the CD changer or
DAB tuner, “CD-CH” or “DAB” cannot be
selected.
Turning off the power
• If you turn off the power while listening to a
disc, disc play will start automatically, next
time you turn on the power.
Tuner operations
Storing stations in memory
• During SSM search...
– All previously stored stations are erased and
stations are stored newly.
– Received stations are preset in No. 1 (lowest
frequency) to No. 6 (highest frequency).
– When SSM is over, the station stored in
No. 1 will be automatically tuned in.
• When storing a station manually, a previously
preset station is erased when a new station is
stored in the same preset number.
FM RDS operations
• Network-Tracking Reception requires two
types of RDS signals—PI (Programme
Identification) and AF (Alternative
Frequency) to work correctly. Without
receiving these data correctly, NetworkTracking Reception will not operate.
• If a Traffic Announcement is received,
the volume level (TA VOL) automatically
changes to the preset level.
• If a DAB tuner is connected and Alternative
Reception for DAB services (DAB AF) is
activated, Network-Tracking Reception
(AF-REG) is also activated automatically. On
the other hand, Network-Tracking Reception
cannot be deactivated without deactivating
Alternative Reception. (See page 40.)
• If you want to know more about RDS, visit
«http://www.rds.org.uk».
Disc operations
General
• In this manual, words “track” and “file” are
interchangeably used when referring to MP3/
WMA files and their file names.
• This receiver can also playback 8 cm discs.
• This receiver can only playback audio CD
(CD-DA) files if different type of files are
recorded in the same disc.
– The first track will be skipped if a different
type of file is detected first.
• When a disc has been loaded, selecting
“DISC” for the playback source starts disc
play.
Inserting a disc
• When a disc is inserted upside down,
“PLEASE” and “EJECT” appear alternately
on the display. Press 0 to eject the disc.

Playing a DVD-R/DVD-RW or CD-R/
CD-RW
• Use only “finalized” discs.
• This receiver can play back only the files of
ENGLISH
the same type which is first detected if a disc
includes both audio CD (CD-DA) files and
MP3/WMA files.
• Only for CD-R/CD-RW: This receiver can
play back multi-session discs; however,
unclosed sessions will be skipped while
playing.
• Some DVD-R/DVD-RW or CD-R/CD-RW
may not play back on this receiver because
of their disc characteristics, and for the
following causes:
– Discs are dirty or scratched.
– Moisture condensation occurs on the lens
inside the receiver.
– The pickup lens inside the receiver is dirty.
– CD-R/CD-RW on which the files are
written with “Packet Write” method.
– DVD-R/DVD-RW which are not written
in UDF-Bridge Format (eg. UDF format or
ISO format).
– There are improper recording conditions
(missing data, etc.) or media conditions
(stain, scratch, warp, etc.).
• DVD-RW/CD-RW may require a longer
readout time since the reflectance of DVDRW/CD-RW is lower than that of regular
discs.
• Do not use the following DVD-R/DVD-RW
or CD-R/CD-RW:
– Discs with stickers, labels, or protective seal
stuck to the surface.
– Discs on which labels can be directly
printed by an ink jet printer.
Using these discs under high temperatures or
high humidities may cause malfunctions or
damages to discs.
Playing an MP3/WMA disc
• This receiver can play back MP3/WMA files
with the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma>
(regardless of the letter case—upper/lower)
recorded in either CD-R/CD-RW or in
DVD-R/DVD-RW.
• This receiver can show the names of albums,
artists (performer), and ID3 Tag (Version 1.0,
1.1, 2.2, 2.3, or 2.4) for MP3 files and WMA
files.
• This receiver can display only one-byte
characters. No other characters can be
correctly displayed.
• This receiver can play back MP3/WMA files
meeting the conditions below:
• The maximum number of characters for file/
folder names vary among the disc format used
(includes 4 extension characters—<.mp3> or
<.wma>).
– ISO 9660 Level 1: up to 12 characters
– ISO 9660 Level 2: up to 31 characters
– Romeo: up to 128 characters
– Joliet: up to 64 characters
– Windows long file name: up to 128

54
• This receiver can recognize the total of
1100 files, 250 folders (maximum of 999 files
per folder).
• This receiver can play back the files recorded
in VBR (variable bit rate).
The files recorded in VBR have a discrepancy
in elapsed time display, and do not show
the actual elapsed time. Especially, after
performing the search function, this difference
becomes noticeable.

Audio.
Changing the source
• If you change the source, playback also stops
(without ejecting the disc).
Next time you select “DISC” for the playback
source (without activating Dual Zone), disc
play starts from where it has been stopped
previously.
Ejecting a disc
• If the ejected disc is not removed within
15 seconds, the disc is automatically inserted
again into the loading slot to prevent it from
dust. (Disc will not play this time.)
DVD setup menu
• When the language you have selected is not
recorded on a disc, the original language is
automatically used as the initial language. In
addition, for some discs, the initial languages
settings will not work as you set due to their
internal disc programming.
• While playing (or pausing), you cannot
change these languages.
After you change any of these language
settings, eject the disc and insert it (or another
disc) again so that your setting takes effect.
• When you select “16:9 [MULTI]” for a
picture whose aspect ratio is 4:3, the picture
slightly changes due to the process for
converting the picture width.
• Even if “4:3 [MULTI] PAN SCAN” is
selected, the screen size may become
“4:3 [MULTI] LETTER BOX” with some
DVDs. This depends on how they are
recorded.

General settings—PSM
• If you change the “AMP GAIN” setting from
“HIGH PWR” to “LOW PWR” while the
volume level is set higher than “VOL 30,” the
ENGLISH
receiver automatically changes the volume
level to “VOL 30.”
Other main functions
• If you try to assign a title to a 31st disc,
“NAMEFULL” flashes on the display. Delete
unwanted titles before assignment.
• Titles assigned to discs in the CD changer can
also be shown if you playback the disc on the
receiver.
DAB tuner operations
• Only primary DAB services can be presetted
even when you store a secondary service.
• A previously preset DAB service is erased
when a new DAB service is stored in the
same preset number.
