Connecting the optical digital cable
You may connect to an AV Amplifier with an Optical digital cable (not supplied) instead of a Coaxial digital cable.
When you connect the optical digital cable (not supplied), remove the dust protection cap from the rear panel. When not using the optical digital cable, attach the dust protection cap to protect against dust.
NOTES:
The OPTICAL, COAXIAL, DVD AUDIO L/R, S-VIDEO and COMPONENT jacks are useful only for DVD section. On these connections, VCR functions can not be used and also the VCR MENUs don’t appear. VHS signal is output only from the composite jack (DVD/VCR VIDEO/AUDIO OUTPUT) and UHF/VHF OUT.
When you make the connections above, do not set DOLBY DIGIT AL to DOLBY DIGIT AL or DTS to ON on the A V Amplifier. If you do, a loud noise will suddenly come out from the speakers, affecting your ears or causing the speakers to be damaged.
Caution for the optical digital audio output connector: Do not connect to an amplifier (with an optical digital input connector) which does not contain a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder. Otherwise, any attempt to play DVDs may cause such a high level of noise that it may be harmful to your ears and damage your speakers.
DTS audio will be output only from the COAXIAL or OPTICAL output. To hear DTS audio, DTS-Decoder is necessary. When playing DTS-encoded CDs, only noise will be heard from the speakers or analogue stereo outputs.
Some DTS decoders which do not support DVD-DTS interface may not work properly with the unit.
