Introduction

Precautions

Installation

• 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.

• 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 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.

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.

Additional Information

Learning More about This System

Introduction

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.

Connections

• Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other terminals, connecting cords and power cord. Also, keep the antennas away from metallic parts of the System, connecting cords, and the AC power cord. This could cause poor reception.

• Use only speakers with the same speaker impedance as indicated by the speaker terminals on the rear of the System.

• The speakers are magnetically shielded to avoid color distortions on TVs. However, if not installed properly, it may cause color distortions. So, pay attention to the following when installing the speakers. – When placing the speakers near a TV set, turn off the

TV’s main power switch or unplug it before installing the speakers. Then wait at least 30 minutes before turning on the TV’s main power switch again.

– Some TVs may still be affected even though you have

followed the above instruction. If this happens, move the speakers away from the TV.

(see pages 1 to 2)

(see pages 3 to 5)

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 Tape:

• It is not recommended to use the C-120 or longer tapes. These tapes easily jams in the pinch rollers and the capstans, and may cause characteristic deterioration.

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 Audios 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 playback... – MP3 discs are required a longer readout time than regular

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

– Some MP3 files cannot be played back and will be

skipped. This results from their recording processes and conditions.

– When making MP3 discs, use ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level

2 for the disc format.

– This System can play back MP3 files with the extension

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

– It is recommended that you make each MP3 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.

(see pages 7 to 11)
