Getting Started

Since it is usual for DVD movies to be released at dif fer ent
times in different regions of the world, all players have region
codes and disc can have an op tion al region code. If you load
a disc of a different region code to your player, you will see
the region code notice on the screen. The disc will not play,
and should be unloaded.

(Possible region codes:)

There are 6 regions (also called “locals”). Each DVD play er
and disc will be played in one region ONLY.
1: Canada, U.S., U.S. Territories
2: Japan, Europe, South Africa, Middle East (including

Egypt)
3: Southeast Asia, East Asia (including Hong Kong)
4: Australia, New Zealand, Paci c Islands, Central America,

Mexico, South America, Car ib be an
5: Former Soviet Union, Indian Subcontinent, Africa (also

North Korea, Mongolia)
6: China

Never make or change connections with the

power switched on.

Important Safety Instructions

Follow Instructions – All operating and maintenance instructions should be followed and warnings adhered
to.

Standby - The standby button on the remote control doesn’t switch off the DVD completely and the DVD will
continue to draw electricity from the mains supply. Therefore in the interests of safety and to avoid unneces­sary energy consumption, never leave your DVD in standby while unattended for long periods of time, eg.
overnight, while on holiday or while out of the house.

Cleaning – Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.

Accessories – Do not use accessories not recommended in this instruction book as they may be hazard-

ous.

Water and Moisture – Hazard of electric shock. Do not use this product near water or in rainy/moist situa­tions.

Objects and Liquid – Never allow objects of any kind or liquids to be pushed/spilled into this product through
openings as they may come into contact with dangerous voltage or other hazards.
Do not place objects  lled with liquids, such as vases, on the unit.

Condensation – Moisture will form in the operating section of the player if the player is brought from cool
surroundings into a warm room or if the temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this happens, the
player's performance will be impaired. To prevent this, let the player stand in its new surroundings for about
an hour before switching it on, or make sure that the room temperature rises gradually. Condensation may
also form during the summer if the player is exposed to the breeze from an air conditioner. In such cases,
change the location of the player.

Placing or Moving – Do not place on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket or table. The product may fall,
causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the product. A product and cart combination
should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the product and
cart combination to overturn.

Power Cord Protection – Power 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 plugs and the point from which the cords
exit the product.

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

Overloading – Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in risk of  re or electric
shock.

Servicing – Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you
to dangerous voltage points or other hazards. Refer all servicing to quali ed service personnel.

Damage Requiring Service - Disconnect this product from the wall outlet and all power sources including
batteries, and refer servicing to quali ed service personnel under the following conditions:
a) When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.

3

Getting Started

b) If any liquid has been spilled onto, or objects have fallen into the product.
c) If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
d) If the product does not operate normally even if you follow the operating instructions. Adjust only those

controls that are covered by the operating instructions. Improper adjustment of other controls may result
in damage and will often require extensive work by a quali ed technician to restore the product to its

normal operating condition.
e) If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
f) When the product exhibits a distinct change in performance. This indicates a need for service.

Replacement Parts – When replacement parts are required be sure the service technician has used re­placement parts that are speci ed or that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorised
substitutions may result in  re, electric shock or other hazards.

Safety Check – Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product, ask the service technician to per­form safety checks to determine that the product is in safe operating order.

Ventilation -To ensure proper ventilation and proper operation, never cover the unit with a cloth or other
material and make sure there is a gap of at least 10mm around the outside of the unit.

Naked flames - Keep the unit away from naked flame sources such as  re and candles, etc and do not place
naked flames on the unit.

Important Warning

A DVD player is a Class 1 laser product, however this player uses a visible laser beam which could cause
hazardous radiation exposure.
Be sure to operate the player correctly as instructed.
The following caution label is located on the rear panel of the player.

l When this player is plugged into the wall outlet, do not place your eyes close to the opening of the disc

tray and other openings to look into the inside of this player.

l Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those speci ed herein may result

in hazardous radiation exposure.

l Do not open covers and do not repair yourself. Refer servicing to quali ed personnel.

l To reduce the risk of  re or electric shock, do not expose this equipment to rain or moisture.

l To reduce the risk of  re or electric shock and annoying interference, use the recommended accessories

De nition of Terms

Angle

Recorded onto some DVD discs are scenes which have been si mul ta neous ly shot from a number of

different angles (the same scene is shot from the front, from the left side, from the right side, etc.). With such

discs, the ANGLE button can be used to view the scene from different angles.

Chapter Number

These numbers are recorded on DVD discs. A title is subdivided into many sections, each of which is num-

bered, and speci c parts of video presentations can be searched quickly using these numbers.

DVD

These refer to a high-density optical disc on which high-quality pictures and sound have been recorded by

means of digital signals. Incorporating a new video compression technology (MPEG II) and high-density

recording technology, DVD enables aesthetically pleas ing full-motion video to be recorded over long periods

of time (for instance, a whole movie can be recorded).

DVD has a structure consisting of two 0.6 mm thin discs which are adhered to each other. Since the thinner

the disc, the higher the density at which the information can be recorded, a DVD disc has a greater capacity

than a single 1.2 mm thick disc. Since the two thin discs are adhered to each other, there is the potential to

achieve double-sided play sometime in the future for even longer duration play.

Finalise

After being recorded and  nalised, the recorded disc can be played back on a regular DVD player if the DVD

player can take DVD+R discs.

DVD+R

This means DVD+Recordable. These Discs can be recorded and  nalised only once.

DVD+RW

This means DVD+ReWritable. These Discs can be recorded on repeatedly.

Subtitles

These are the printed lines appearing at the bottom of the screen which translate or transcribe the dialogue.

They are recorded on DVD discs.

Play Time

This indicates the play time which has elapsed from the start of a disc or a title. It can be used to  nd a speci c

scene quickly. (It may not work with some discs.)

Title Number

These numbers are recorded on DVD discs. When a disc contains two or more movies, these movies are

numbered as title 1, title 2, etc.

Track Number

These numbers are assigned to the tracks which are recorded on audio CDs. They enable speci c tracks

to be located quickly.
