BEFORE USE

USAGE OF REMOTE CONTROLLER

LOADING BATTERIES

Before using the remote controller for the ﬁ rst time, load the batteries in the remote controller. The batteries provided are used to verify the operations of the remote controller only.

1. Remove the battery cover.

2. Paying close attention to polarity indicators

(ª plus and · minus), be sure to insert batteries correctly and as indicated.

3. Return the battery cover to its original

position.

CAUTIONS ON HANDLING BATTERIES

Misusing batteries can lead to ﬁ re, injury or soiling of surrounding area as a result of leakage, rupture or corrosion. Carefully read the following precautions before using batteries.

• Insert the batteries while ensuring that their ª and · poles are properly aligned with the corresponding markings on the remote controller.

• Batteries of the same size and shape may have different voltages. Do not use any battery except the type indicated. Do not use old and new batteries together, and do not use different types of batteries together.

• Do not recharge batteries.

• Keep batteries out of the reach of children. Seek medical attention if accidentally ingested.

• Do not carry or store batteries together with metal ball point pens, necklaces, coins, hair pins, etc.

• If you will not be using the remote controller for an extended time (1 month or more), remove the batteries to prevent leakage. If batteries leak, do not touch the ﬂ uid with bare hands. Wipe away any ﬂ uid in the case and put in new batteries. When doing so, handle with care, because ﬂ uid on skin or clothing presents a burn risk. If you accidentally get ﬂ uid on your skin, immediately wash with water and seek medical attention.

• Do not heat or take apart batteries or put them in ﬂ ame or water.

• When disposing of used batteries, please comply with governmental regulations or environmental public instruction’s rules that apply in your country or area.

• Do not expose the batteries to excessive heat such as direct sunlight, ﬁ re or the like.

OPERATIONAL RANGE

Operate the unit with the remote controller within the range of the illustration below.

Approx. 5m (16.4 ft)

Caution

• Do not allow direct sunlight, an inverter ﬂ uorescent light or other strong source of light to shine onto the player’s infrared receptor window. Otherwise, the operation of the remote controller may be disabled.

• Bear in mind that operating the remote controller may cause other devices operated by infrared rays to be operated by mistake.

• The remote controller cannot be operated if the space between the controller and the player’s infrared receptor window is obstructed.

• Do not place any objects on top of the remote controller.

Doing so may cause one or more buttons to be

held down which will cause the batteries to run down.

SPEAKER PLACEMENT

The ideal surround speaker system for this unit is 7-speaker systems, using front left and right speakers, a

CONNECTIONS

OPERATION

CONNECTIONS

OPERATION

center speaker, surround left and right speakers, a surround back left and right speakers, and a subwoofer. For best results we recommend that all front speakers be of the same type, with identical or similar driver units. This will deliver smooth pans across the front sound stage as the action moves from side to side.

BASIC

Your center channel speaker is very important as over 80% of the dialog from a typical motion picture emanates from the center channel. It should possess similar sonic characteristics to the main speakers. Surround channel speakers need not be identical to the front channel speakers, but they should be of high quality. The surround center speaker is useful for playback of Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS-ES. One of the beneﬁ ts of both Dolby Digital and DTS is that surround channels are discrete full range, while they were frequency limited in earlier “Pro Logic’ type systems.

BASIC

Bass effects are an important part of home theater. For optimal enjoyment a subwoofer should be used as it is optimized for low frequency reproduction. If you have full range front speakers, however, they may be used in place of a subwoofer with proper setting of the switches in the menu system.

ADVANCED

SETUP

FRONT LEFT AND RIGHT SPEAKERS

We recommend to set the front L and R speakers with 45-60 degrees from the listening position.

ADVANCED

CENTER SPEAKER

Align the front line of the center speaker with the front L/R speakers. Or place the center speaker a little backward from the line.

SURROUND LEFT AND RIGHT SPEAKERS

TROUBLESHOOTING

When this unit is used in surround operation, the preferred location for surround speakers is on the side walls of the room, at or slightly behind the listening position. The center of the center speaker should face the center of the room.

SURROUND BACK LEFT AND RIGHT SPEAKERS

OTHERS

Surround back speakers are required when a full

7.1-channel system is installed. Speakers should be placed on a rear wall, behind the listening position. The center of the speaker should face into the room.

SUBWOOFER

We recommend using a sub-woofer to have maximum bass effect. As the subwoofer only handles low frequencies, you can place it any where in the room.

HEIGHT OF THE SPEAKER UNITS

FRONT LEFT AND RIGHT SPEAKERS, AND A CENTER SPEAKER

Align the tweeters and mid-range drivers on the three front speakers at the same height, as best as possible.

Note

Use magnetically-shielded speakers for front left, right and the center speakers when the speakers are installed near the TV.

SURROUND LEFT AND RIGHT SPEAKERS

Place the surround left, right and surround back speakers higher than your ears by about 70cm–1m. Also place the speakers at the same height, as best as possible.

70cm 1m

Notes

• To prevent damage to circuitry, do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other and do not let them touch any

metal part of this unit.

• Do not touch the speaker terminals when the power is on. It may cause you to receive an electric shocks.

• Do not connect more than one speaker cable to one speaker terminal. Doing so may damage this unit.

• Be sure to connect the positive and negative cables for the speaker properly. If they are miss-connected, the

signal phase will be reversed and the signal quality will be corrupted.

CONNECTING HDMI COMPONENTS

An HDMI cable (sold separately) is used to connect the HDMI jack on the unit with the HDMI jack on the Bluray disc player, TV, projector or other component. To transmit multichannel audio via HDMI, the connected player must support multichannel audio transmission through its HDMI jack.

Notes

• Some source devices such as DVD players or set top box do not support HDMI repeater operations like those of the unit. In such case, pictures are not properly projected on monitors such as TVs and projectors.

• When multiple components are connected to this unit, turn power to unused components off to prevent interference between them.

• Disconnecting or connecting cables with the power on can damage the equipment. Turn the power off before disconnecting or connecting cables.

• The following functions are not available when the unit is connected to equipment that does not support HDMI

1.3a.

• Deep Color

• x.v. Color

• Bitstream audio signal decoding, as for Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD, and so on

For details, refer to the user’s manuals of connected equipment.

• Depending on the quiality of the cable used, the HDMI signal may be affected by noise.

• The unit does not support HDMI control. However, it can be connected between devices that support HDMI control, and the HDMI control signals can be passed through the unit to exercise the control concerned (“HDMI control through” function).

 “HDMI control” is a function that lets one device control another when both feature HDMI CEC (Consumer

Electronics Control). By using HDMI cables to connect the devices, linked operations can be performed between them.
