CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
DO NOT OPEN
THE LIGHTNING FLASH WITH ARROWHEAD SYMBOL, WITHIN AN
EQUILATERAL TRIANGLE, IS INTENDED TO ALERT THE USER TO THE

Factory fitted moulded mains plug
1. The mains plug contains a fuse. For replacement, use only a 13-Amp ASTA-approved (BS1362) fuse.
2. The fuse cover must be refitted when replacing the fuse in the moulded plug.
3. Do not cut off the mains plug from this equipment. If the plug fitted is not suitable for the power points in
your home or the cable is too short to reach a power point, then obtain an appropriate safety approved
extension lead or adapter, or consult your dealer.
If nonetheless the mains plug is cut off, remove the fuse and dispose of the plug immediately, to avoid a
possible shock hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains supply.
IMPORTANT : The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Blue : Neutral Brown : Live
Do not connect those leads to the earth terminal of a three-pin plug.

Before Start
Do not insert the power cord plugs of the player and the
connected components until all of the components have
been connected.
Be sure to insert all connection cables securely. If a cable
is plugged incompletely, lack of video, lack of audio or
noise may result.
Before connecting or disconnecting a connection cord,
be sure to unplug the power plug from the wall power
outlet. If a connection cable is connected or disconnected
while the power plug is left connected, malfunction or
equipment damage may result.
When a DVD AUDIO disc is played, the player can output
audio signals at very high frequencies. As this may
sometimes lead to speaker damage due to a high-volume
sound, do not set "Audio Filter" to "Filter 110 kHz" when
the speakers in use are not suitable for high-frequency
reproduction. Œ
Also, be sure to check the actual sound level when
increasing or decreasing the volume control setting.
Remote control range:
If the joystick remote is used
outside this area, correct operations
will not be possible.
¶ When the controllable distance of the joystick remote
reduces, replace both batteries with new ones.
¶ Do not install the player in a place where the remote
control sensor is subjected to direct sunlight or the
light of a fluorescent lamp base on high-frequency
lighting (inverter system, etc.). Otherwise, the control
range of the joystick remote will be reduced.
Preparation of Remote Control Unit
Installing the batteries:
Open the cover and insert the batteries (R6/AA) by
observing the polarity marking.

Connection with a TV or Stereo
System
Do not insert the power cord plugs of the player and the
connected components until all of the components have
been connected.
For details on the connection terminals and functions of
the TV, refer to its instruction manual.
The video output from the player should be connected
directly to the TV. If the video output is connected through
a VCR, the picture displayed on the TV may be disturbed
due to the copy protect function.
To Connect a TV
Video connection: Connect the VIDEO OUTPUT jack of
the player to the video input of the TV using the provided video cable.
S Video connection: If the TV has an S Video input con-
nector, connect the S VIDEO OUTPUT connector of
the player to it using the provided S Video cable.
¶ As S Video separates video signal into the luminance
signal (Y) and color signal (C), it can provide sharper
pictures than ordinary video connection.
Component video connection: If the TV has component
video input jacks, connect the Y, CB and CR COMPO-
NENT VIDEO OUTPUT jacks of the player to the corresponding jacks on the TV using video cables.
¶ As component video separate video signal into the
luminance signal (Y) and color difference signals (CB,
CR), it can provide sharper image than the S Video
connection.
¶ Depending on the TV or video monitor in use, the
terminal names may be different from those used
with the player (Y/Pb/Pr or Y/B-Y/R-Y, etc.)
¶ When the TV in use is a HDTV or "Hi-Vision" TV,
connect the component video signals from the player
only to the DVD-compatible input jacks.
SCART connection (For Europe and U.K.): If the TV or
VCR has SCART connectors, connect the TV SCART or
VCR SCART connector of this unit to the TV or VCR
using SCART cables.
¶ The audio and video signals can be output using a
single cable. The signal output from the TV SCART
connector can be switched between composite video,
S Video and RGB. (The VCR SCART connector always
outputs composite video signals so its output signals
cannot be selected.)
¶ When the TV is connected through a VCR using
SCART connection, the picture displayed on the TV
may be disturbed due to the copy protect function.
¶ When using only the TV and VCR which are both
connected with the player using the SCART
connection, the signal from the VCR cannot be sent
to the TV if the player is switched off. (In this case, set
the player to the power standby mode.)
Audio connection: Connect the MIX LINE OUTPUT jacks
of the player to the audio input jacks of the TV using
the provided audio cables.
COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT switch: Use this switch
to switch the video display format (between Interlaced
and Progressive scanning). Be sure to unplug the power
cord from the power outlet before changing the position of this switch.
¶ When using the Component Video Output, do not
set the "SCART OUTPUT SELECT" setting in the
"SET UP MENU" to "RGB". (For Europe and U.K.)
To Connect a Stereo System
Audio connection: Connect the MIX LINE OUTPUT jack
of the player to the audio input jacks of the connected

¶ It is also possible to perform digital connection
using a commercially available optical fiber cable
and the OPTICAL DIGITAL OUTPUT jack.
Video connection: Connect the VIDEO OUTPUT jack

lit or not.
DTS disclaimer clause
DTS Digital Surround™ is a discrete 5.1 channel digital
audio format available on CD, LD, and DVD software
which consequently cannot be decoded and played
back inside most CD, LD, or DVD players. For this
reason, when DTS-encoded software is played back
through the analog outputs of the CD, LD, or DVD
player, excessive noise will be exhibited. To avoid
possible damage to the audio system, proper
precautions should be taken by the consumer if the
analog outputs are connected directly to an
amplification system. To enjoy DTS Digital Surround™
playback, an external 5.1 channel DTS Digital
Surround™ decoder system must be connected to the
digital output (S/P DIF, AES/EBU, or TosLink) of the
CD, LD or DVD player.
This unit is equipped with DTS Digital Surround™
decoder.
S Video connection: When the connected TV has an S
Video connector, connect the S VIDEO OUTPUT
connector of the player to it using the provided S
Video cable.
