Placing A Disc

Opening the disc tray

Press M to open the disc tray.

● Pressing the button again closes the disc tray.

● Use the button to open and close the disc tray.

● Do not block the disc tray with your hand while it is opening or

closing as this may result in hardware failure.

● Do not place unplayable discs or any object other than a disc on

the disc tray.

● Do not press down strongly on the disc tray or place any heavy

objects on it.

Discs without cartridges

Dolby Digital mark It has been developed by Dolby Laboratories as a digital surround system.

DTS (Digital Theater Systems) You can enjoy DTS audio if you connect an amplifier with a built-in DTS decoder to the DIGITAL OUT connector of the unit.

Disc tray

Place the disc on the disc tray with the label side facing up. Since disc size changes depending on the disc to be played back, be sure to correctly align the disc with the grooves for its size. If the disc is not in its groove, it may be scratched or otherwise damaged. To insert an 8 cm disc, place it according to the inner groove.

DVD-RAM discs contained in cartridges

Double-sided discs:

Remove the disc from the cartridge. Align the disc with the grooves on the disc tray as shown in the illustration and insert with the side you wish to play back or record facing down. If you insert the disc with ASide AB facing down, programs are recorded on the side A.

Single-sided discs:

Remove the disc from the cartridge. Align the disc with the grooves on the disc tray as shown in the illustration and insert with the label side facing up.

Care And Handling Of Discs

How to handle discs

When handling a disc, do not touch the surface of the disc. Since discs are made of plastic, they are easily damaged. If a disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped, the images and sound will not be picked up correctly, and such a disc may cause the unit to malfunction.

Label side

Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesives on its surface.

Recording side

Make sure that discs are not scratched or dirty on the recording side before use. Scratches and dirt on the recording side of a disc may hinder proper playback and recording. Also be careful that a DVD-RAM disc may get scratched or dirty when removed from cartridge then put back in after use.

Storage

Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled on top of one another without their protective cases, they can be damaged. Do not put discs in a location where they may be exposed to direct sunlight, or in a place where the humidity or temperature is high. Avoid leaving discs in your car!

DISC INFORMATION

EN 11

Maintenance of discs

If there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc, wipe with a soft dry cloth, moving from the centre outwards. If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a cloth moistened with water. Never use record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any anti-static agents.

CAUTION:

Sometimes during playback, noise may appear or images may be garbled. This is sometimes due to the disc. (It may not be up to industry standards.) These symptoms are caused by the discs, not by the malfunction of the unit.

Plug & Play Set

Auto Clock Set/Auto Tuner Set

This unit sets the clock and tuner channels automatically when AC power cord is first connected to an AC outlet. The antenna cable must be connected for the Plug & Play setting. The time and date can be set automatically by the clock setting data transmitted from one of the regular TV broadcast channels. We call this TV channel the “host channel” and it is a PBS channel in your area.

ATTENTION:

● If you use a cable box, Plug & Play will not function; set the

clock and tuner channels separately. (墌 pg. 21 – 22)

● Depending on areas or reception conditions, the unit may not

receive the Auto clock setting data from the PBS channel. If this function is taking a considerable amount of time, it may be necessary to perform the Semiauto or Manual Clock Set procedure.

INITIAL SETTINGS

EN 19

1 Connect the antenna cable to the unit. (A pg. 18) Then connect

the AC power cord to an AC outlet. Do not turn on the unit. The clock and tuner channels will be set automatically.

● ALOADINGB blinks on the front display panel when the AC plug

of the AC power cord is connected into an AC outlet and it takes approximately 50 seconds for the unit to be turned on. This is not a malfunction.

NOTES:

● Auto Clock Set is performed first.

AAUTOB blinks on the front display panel during Auto Clock Set.

● Auto Channel Set is performed next. Auto Channel Set scans all

the channels that are receivable by your unit. During Auto Channel Set, the channel numbers are displayed as they are scanned and set.

● When Plug & Play setting has been completed successfully, the

correct clock time is displayed. If you perform Plug & Play setting successfully, there is no need to perform AClock SetB (A pg. 21) and ATuner SetB (A pg. 22). If, however, you want to add or delete channels, refer to AManual Channel SetB (A pg. 22).

During Auto Clock Set

AAUTOB blinks.

During Auto Channel Set

The channel numbers are displayed and AAUTOB blinks as they are scanned and set.

INFORMATION

● If AAUTO CLOCKB is set to AONB (A pg. 21), the clock will be

adjusted automatically by the host channel every hour (except 11:00 PM, midnight, 1:00 AM and 2:00 AM) using the incoming PBS channel clock setting data. (This automatic clock adjustment can only be performed when the unit is turned off. The clock will be adjusted just on these hours — on the time displayed on the front display panel, not on the actual real time.) The default setting of AAUTO CLOCKB is AONB. (A pg. 21)

● If the memory backup fails, because a power outage occurs or

because the AC power cord is unplugged, Plug & Play will be performed when power is restored to the unit.

What to do if Plug & Play setting failed

● If an incorrect time is displayed on the front display panel, you

may be receiving the clock setting data of a PBS channel from an adjacent time zone, or an incorrect PBS channel from a cable TV system. In this case, perform ASemiauto Clock SetB (A pg. 21) or AManual Clock SetB (A pg. 21).

● If AcB appears on the front display panel, your antenna

cable may not be connected to the unit or there may not be a Host PBS signal available in your area. Ensure that the antenna cable is connected correctly. Then turn on and off the unit; the Plug & Play setting will be automatically reactivated. If Plug & Play setting is not performed though the antenna cable is connected correctly, perform AManual Clock SetB (A pg. 21) and AAuto Channel SetB (A pg. 22) or AManual Channel SetB (A pg. 22).

Plug & Play Completed

The current time is displayed.

● If an incorrect clock time or AcB appears on the front display

panel, see AWhat to do if Plug & Play setting failedB (A pg. 19).
