CAUTION concerning the Power Cord
Most appliances recommend they be placed upon a dedicated
circuit;
That is, a single outlet circuit which powers only that appliance and
has no additional outlets or branch circuits. Check the specification
page of this owner's manual to be certain.
Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords, or damaged
or cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any of these conditions
could result in electric shock or fire. Periodically examine the cord of
your appliance, and if its appearance indicates damage or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of the appliance, and have the cord
replaced with an exact replacement part by an authorized servicer.
Protect the power cord from physical or mechanical abuse, such as
being twisted, kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked upon.
Pay particular attention to plugs, wall outlets, and the point where the
cord exits the appliance.
To disconnect power from the mains, pull out the mains cord plug.
When installing the product, ensure that the plug is easily accessible.

AUDIO
Each DVD disc has a variety of audio output options. Set the player’s AUDIO options according to the type of audio system you use.
Dolby Digital / DTS / MPEG
Bitstream: Select “Bitstream” if you connect the unit’s DIGITAL
OUT jack to an amplifier or other equipment with a Dolby
Digital, DTS or MPEG decoder.

Off (for DTS): If you select “Off”, the DTS signal is not output
through the DIGITAL OUT jack.
Sample Freq. (Frequency)
If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of handling 96 kHz
signals, select 48 kHz. When this choice is made, this unit automatically converts any 96 kHz signals to 48 kHz so your system
can decode them.
If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling 96 kHz signals,
select 96 kHz. When this choice is made, this unit passes each
type of signal through without any further processing.
Check the documentation for your amplifier to verify its
capabilities.
DRC (Dynamic Range Control)
With the DVD format, you can hear a program’s soundtrack in the
most accurate and realistic presentation possible, thanks to digital
audio technology. However, you may wish to compress the
dynamic range of the audio output (the difference between the
loudest sounds and the quietest ones). This allows you to listen to
a movie at a lower volume without losing clarity of sound. Set
DRC to On for this effect.
Vocal
