Preparations

manual or as marked on the appliance. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power company. For appliances intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the instruction manual.

2. Power-cord protection – Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, pay particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.

Never pull or stretch the cord.

DV-S701 (En/E)

6. Temperature – The appliance may not function properly if used at extremely low, or freezing temperatures. The ideal ambient temperature is above +5°C (41°F).

7. Heat – The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

8. Electric shock – Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquid is not spilled into the enclosure through openings.

equipped with a polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

4. Ventilation – Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the appliance and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or covered. The appliance should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. To maintain good ventilation, do not put records or a tablecloth on the appliance. Place the appliance at least 10 cm away from the walls. Do not use the appliance on a bed, sofa, rug or similar surface that may block the ventilation openings. This appliance should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s instructions have been adhered to.

9. Enclosure removal – Never remove the enclosure. If the internal parts are touched accidentally, a serious electric shock might occur.

10. Magnetic fields – Keep the appliance away from sources of magnetic fields such as TV sets, speaker systems, radios, motorized toys or magnetized objects.

11. Cleaning – Unplug this appliance from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use volatile solvents such as alcohol, paint thinner, gasoline, or benzine, etc. to clean the cabinet. Use a clean dry cloth.

12. Accessories – Do not place this appliance on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The appliance may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the appliance. Any mounting of the appliance should follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer. An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.

5. Water and moisture – The appliance should not be used near water - for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, etc.

13. Lightning – For added protection for this appliance during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the appliance due to lightning and power-line surges.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

DV-S701 (En/E)

18. Power lines – An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

14. Abnormal smell – If an abnormal smell or smoke is detected, immediately turn the power OFF and unplug the appliance from the wall outlet. Contact your dealer or nearest service center.

POWER OFF!

15. Damage requiring service – The appliance should be ser-

viced by qualified service personnel when:

A. The power-supply cord or the plug has been damaged. B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the

appliance.

C. The appliance has been exposed to rain or water. D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally by

following the instruction manual. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the instruction manual as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the appliance to its normal operation. E. The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.

F. The appliance exhibits a marked change in performance.

16. Servicing – The user should not attempt to service the

appliance beyond that described in the instruction manual. All other servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.

19. AC outlets – Do not connect other audio equipment with a power consumption larger than that specified to the AC outlet on the rear panel. Never connect other electrical appliances, such as an iron or toaster, to it to prevent fire or electric shock.

20. Overloading – Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

21. Attachment – Do not use attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer as they may cause hazards.

22. Replacement parts – When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original parts. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.

23. Safety check – Upon completion of any service or repairs to this appliance, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to determine that the appliance is in proper operating condition.

Preparations

Operations

17. Outdoor antenna grounding – If an outside antenna is

connected to the appliance, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. See Figure.

Description of a feature that can be used with VIDEO CD.

The horizontal resolution of 500 lines or more is far above that of the S-VHS video (400 lines) and LaserDisc (430 lines). The picture quality is more noticeable when the screen size is larger.

The ultrahigh audio quality design can play discs with higher quality than CDs, such as a recording with 48 kHz sampling frequency and 16-bit quantization up to 96 kHz sampling frequency and 24-bit quantization. A recording with the 96 kHz sampling frequency can reproduce as high frequencies as above 40 kHz!

The information related to the player and disc can be displayed on the TV screen by pressing the ON SCREEN key of the remote control unit. The remote control unit also has cursor keys for simple operations and settings of the player.

A Dolby Digital (AC-3) surround decoder and MPEG multi-channel surround decoder as well as 6 output channels are built in to bring movie theater-class powerfulness and presence to home theaters.
