The fuse is located inside the chassis and is not user-serviceable. If power does not come on, contact your Onkyo authorized service center.

6. Power WARNING

BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.

The voltage of the available power supply differs according to country or region. Be sure that the power supply voltage of the area where the unit will be used meets the required voltage (AC220-230V 50/60Hz or AC120V 60Hz) written on the rear panel.

7. Do not touch the unit with wet hands

Do not handle the unit or power cord (mains lead) when your hands are wet or damp. If water or any other liquid enters the case, take the unit to an authorized service center for inspection.

8. Location of the unit

• Place the unit in a well-ventilated location.

Take special care to provide plenty of ventilation on all sides of the unit especially when it is placed in an audio rack. If v entilation is blocked, the unit may overheat and malfunction.

• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or heating units as the

unit's internal temperature may rise and shorten the life of the pickup.

• Avoid damp and dusty places and places directly affected by

vibrations from the speakers. In particular, avoid placing the unit on or above one of the speakers.

• Be sure the unit is placed in a horizontal position. Never place it

on its side or on a slanted surface as it may malfunction.

• When you place the unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the playbac k

picture may become poor and the sound may be distorted. In this case, place the unit away from the TV, radio, or VCR.

9. Care

From time to time you should wipe the front and rear panels and the cabinet with a soft cloth. For heavier dirt, dampen a soft cloth in a weak solution of mild detergent and water, wring it out dry, and wipe off the dirt. Following this , dry immediately with a clean cloth. Do not use rough material, thinners, alcohol or other chemical solvents or cloths since these could damage the finish or remove the panel lettering.

10. Notes on Handling

• When shipping the unit, use the original shipping car ton and packing materials. F or maximum protection, repac k the unit as it was originally packed at the factory.

• Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the unit for a long time. They will leave marks on the finish.

• The top and rear panels of the unit may become warm after a long period of use. This is not a malfunction.

• When the unit is not in use, be sure to remove the disc and turn off the power.

• If you do not use the unit for a long period, the unit may not function properly in the future. Tur n on and use the unit occasionally.

11. To Obtain a Clear Picture

The unit is a high technology, precision device. If the optical pickup lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn down, the picture quality becomes poor. To obtain a clear picture, we recommend regular inspection and maintenance (cleaning or parts replacement) every 1,000 hours of use depending on the operating environment. For details, contact your nearest dealer.

12. Notes on Moisture Condensation

Moisture condensation damages the unit. Please read the following carefully.

• What is moisture condensation?

Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you pour a cold drink into a glass on a warm day. Drops of water form on the outside of the glass. In the same way, moisture may condense on the optical pick-up lens inside the unit, one of the most crucial internal parts of the unit.

• Moisture condensation occurs in the following cases.

– When you bring the unit directly from a cold place to a warm

place.

– When you use the unit in a room where you just turned on the

heater, or a place where the cold wind from the air conditioner directly hits the unit.

– In summer, when you use the unit in a hot and humid place

just after you move the unit from an air conditioned room.

– When you use the unit in a humid place.

• Do not use the unit when moisture condensation may occur.

If you use the unit in such a situation, it may damage discs and internal parts. Remove the disc, connect the po w er cord (mains lead) of the unit to the wall outlet (the mains), turn on the unit, and leave it for tw o or three hours . After a few hours , the unit will have warmed up and evaporated any moisture. Keep the unit connected to the wall outlet (the mains) and moisture condensation will seldom occur.

Positioning Speakers

Two speaker systems (SPEAKERS A and SPEAKERS B) can be connected to the DVD Receiver. The SPEAKERS A system is to be placed in the main room, and the SPEAKERS B system is to be placed in a second room.

The configuration of the SPEAKERS A system

The SPEAKERS A system consists of the front left, center, and right speakers, surround left and right speakers, and subwoofer.

You can reproduce the sounds such as Dolby surround and DTS surround.

The configuration of the SPEAKERS B system

The SPEAKERS B system consists of the front left and right speakers.

You can reproduce only monaural and stereo sounds.

CENTER SPEAKER

Standard speaker placement of the SPEAKERS A system

Speaker placement plays an important role in the reproduction of Surround sound. The placement of the speakers varies depending on the size of the room and the wall coverings used in the room. The illustration below shows an example of a layout for standard speaker placement. Refer to this example when you position the speakers in order to experience the best of Surround sound.

For ideal Surround effects, all speakers should be installed. If a center speaker or subwoofer is not connected, the sound from the unused channel is distributed to the connected speakers in order to reproduce the best Surround sound possible.

The center speaker reproduces a richer sound image by enhancing the perception of the sound's source and movement.

The left, right, and center speakers should face the seated listener and be placed at ear level.

Place the left and right surround speakers 1 meter (3 feet) above the listener's ear level and facing toward the sides of the room, making sure that the listener is within the speakers' dispersion angle.

Subwoofer

Install a subwoofer with a built-in power amplifier for powerful bass sounds. The placement of the subwoofer does not affect the final quality of the sound image much, therefore, you can install it wherever it is

convenient. Refer to the speakers’ instruction manuals for details.

Connecting Speakers

Before connecting

• Refer also to the instruction manuals of the speakers.

• This DVD Receiver is designed to reproduce optimum sound quality

when speakers with the impedances specified below are connected. Please check the following information and choose speakers with appropriate impedances for the connections.

Front speakers: 6 ohms min. per speaker Center speaker: 6 ohms min. Surround Speakers : 6 ohms min. per speaker

Adjusting the position of the FM indoor antenna (aerial)

While listening to an FM program (see page 28), extend the antenna (aerial) and move it in various directions until the clearest signal is received, then secure the antenna (aerial) with push pins in the position with the least distortion.

Adjusting the position of the AM indoor antenna (aerial)

While listening to an AM program (see page 28), set the antenna (aerial) in the direction and position where you receive the clearest sound. Put it as far away as possible from the unit, TVs, speaker cables, and power cords (mains leads).

Connecting an AM Outdoor Antenna (Aerial)

An outdoor antenna (aerial) will be more effective if it is stretched horizontally above a window or outside. Leave the supplied AM indoor antenna (aerial) connected.

Note

To avoid the risk of lightning and electrical shock, grounding is necessary. Follow item 19 of the "Important Safeguards" on page 2 when you install an outdoor antenna (aerial).

AM

Note

Insert one end of the AM antenna (aerial) cord to either of the AM antenna (aerial) connectors and the other end to the other connector. There is no difference between one end of the AM antenna (aerial) cord and the other end unlike the speaker cords which have positive and negative poles.

Notes

• Install the antenna (aerial) well away from tall buildings and in an area where FM stations can directly be received.

• Keep the antenna (aerial) away from noise sources (neon signs, busy roads, etc.).

• It is dangerous to put the antenna (aerial) close to power lines. Keep it well away from power lines, transformers, etc.

• To avoid the risk of lightning and electrical shock, grounding is necessary. Follow item 19 of the "Important Safeguards" on page 2 when you install

the outdoor antenna (aerial).

Directional Iinkage

Do not use the same antenna (aerial) for both FM and TV (or VCR) reception since the FM and TV (or VCR) signals can interfere with each other. If you must use a common FM/TV (or VCR) antenna (aerial), use a directional linkage type splitter.

Enjoying the Sound Effects

The surround sound of the DVD Receiver enables you to enjoy the presence of a movie theater or concert hall in your room. Before using any sound effect, make sure the Speaker Setup configurations have been set (see page 17). The speaker configuration is very important for the surround sound. See "Connecting Speakers" on page 13 and "Positioning Speakers" on page 12. Following are the sound systems the DVD Receiver can reproduce.

DOLBY DIGITAL Surround and DTS (Digital Theater System) Surround

Minimum required speaker system

Center Speaker

Left front speaker

This 5.1 channel digital surround format enables you to individually play five full-range (20Hz-20kHz) channels (left and right front, center, and two surround channels) plus an LFE (Low Frequency Effect) channel for the low-range effect sound. It will create a realistic sound like that heard in theaters and concert halls.

DOLBY DIGITAL Surround

DVD videos that have the this system.

To playback DOLBY DIGITAL Surround sound from connected equipment, you must make the digital connection in addition to the above speaker configuration.

DIGITAL

Right front speaker

Right surround speakerLeft surround speaker

mark are recorded using

DOLBY PRO LOGIC Surround

This surround format consists of four channels (left and right front, center, and monaural surround channel). This format is very effective for panning music, conversation, and threedimensional sound movement output from three front channels. It also simulates the atmosphere and surround effects of the sound reflected from the side and rear walls of the theater.

VHS video cassettes, VHS Hi-Fi video cassettes, LDs, and DVD videos that have the sources for this listening mode.

mark are suitable

Onkyo's original Digital Signal Processing (DSP) modes

The DVD Receiver offers the following special Onkyo sound effects for sources other than Dolby Digital and DTS sounds.

Orchestra

This mode is suitable for classical and opera music. The center channel is cut and the surround channels are emphasized to widen the stereo image. It simulates a natural reverberation as created in a large hall.

DTS Surround

DVD videos and audio CDs that have the mark are recorded using this system.

To playback DTS Surround sound from connected equipment such as an LD player, you must make the digital connection in addition to the above speaker configuration.

Notes on DTS Surround

• If you play a DTS Surround encoded disc with the DVD Receiver, or a DTS encoded disc using a digitally connected player, you may hear a noise for a short while until the DTS decoder of the DVD Receiver recognizes the DTS encoded signal and starts operating. This is not a malfunction.

• If you play a DTS Surround source in fast reverse or fast forward, pause, or skip a chapter or track, noise may be heard. This is not a malfunction.

• Even when playback of the DTS Surround source stops and the DTS signal transmission ends, the DVD Receiver remains in DTS mode and the DTS indicator remains lit. This is to prevent noise when you pause, fast forward, fast reverse, or skip a chapter or track of the playback source. Therefore, if the source switches from the DTS signal to a PCM (2 channel digital stereo) signal immediately, the PCM signal may not be played. In such a case, stop playback for about three seconds, then resume playback.

• Some CD players (if connected to the DVD Receiver) and LD players may be unable to play DTS Surround sources correctly even if you connect the player to the DVD Receiver digitally. In such a case, the digital signals (such as the output level, sampling frequency, frequency response, etc.) processed by the player cannot be recognized as DTS data by the DVD Receiver and you may hear noise instead of the proper sound.

Unplugged

This mode is suitable for acoustic instrumental sounds, vocals, and jazz music. By emphasizing the front stereo image, it simulates the acoustics in front of the stage.

Studio-Mix

This mode is suitable for rock and popular music. Lively sounds with a powerful acoustic image will make you feel as if you are in a club.

TV Logic

This mode offers the realistic acoustics of a TV program being aired in the TV studio. It enhances the entire surround sound and clarity of conversation.

All Ch Stereo

This mode is useful for background music. The front and surround channels will create a stereo image.

34

Theater-Dimensional (T-D)* mode

The ideal home theater is realized by the multichannel sound reproduction with the complete speaker configuration and speaker positioning described on page 12. However, sometimes it is difficult to meet all those conditions. In reality, you may only have front speakers, or not be able to place the surround speakers in position.

Even if your speaker system is not complete, you can enjoy the multichannel surround sound by using the TheaterDimensional mode. Theater-Dimensional mode sets the output channels to generate the most suitable virtual surround reproduction according to the number of the speaker channels set in “Speaker Setup” on page 18 or 19.

The importance of the speaker setup

Calibrating each speaker’s sound pressure is essential for home theater sound reproduction. The same thing can be said for the virtual surround sound reproduction. Especially level matching and the time alignment of the two speakers that reproduce virtual surround signals becomes an even more important factor than with normal multichannel reproduction.

For the DVD Receiver, the calibration for the multichannel reproduction (see speaker distance setting on page 20 and test tone adjustment on page 21) provides the most appropriate level matching.

Notes

• For the input sources which include the surround channel signals like multichannel DOLBY DIGITAL and DTS surround sounds, the virtual processing is applied to those surround channel signals.

• For the 2 channel input sources, the surround channel elements are automatically extracted with the DOLBY PRO LOGIC processing before the virtual processing is applied.

• For the monaural or front 3 channel stereo sources, the virtual surround effect does not work since those input sources do not include the surround channel signals.

* Theater-Dimensional is a virtual surround technology

developed by Onkyo. This technology is approved by Dolby Laboratories for the virtual surround processing of the Virtual Dolby Digital and Virtual Dolby Surround products.

Notes

• To reproduce MPEG2 sounds from a DVD video, you need to change the sound conversion method to “96k Sound” or “PCM.” See “Reproducing MPEG2 Sounds from DVD Videos” on page 49. – If you set the sound conversion method to “96k Sound,” then the

listening mode is set to “Stereo.”

– If you set the sound conversion method to “PCM,” then you can

choose the same listening modes as “Analog/PCM” in the above table.

• The listening mode is set to “Stereo” when the PCM sound whose sampling frequency is higher than 48kHz is played. Such highresolution sounds are reproduced from sources such as DVD video.

• If you wish to set the listening mode to “Stereo” when playing DTS sources, select “Speaker 2ch” by repeating the procedure in “Selecting the number of speaker channels” on page 19. If any setting other than “Speaker 2ch” is selected, some sources may not reproduce desirable sound.

Enjoying the Sound Effects

Choosing Theater-Dimensional Mode

Theater-Dimensional mode is the technology which controls the characteristics of the sounds reaching the listener’s left and right ears, therefore, there is a sweet spot where you can best experience the Theater-Dimensional effects. You need to adjust the location of the sweet spot and these other factors for the best possible Theater-Dimensional effect.

speaker

The listening angle is the angle at the listening position where the two lines from the left and right speakers meet.

You need to adjust the listening angle in the following cases:

• If you set the surround left and right speaker field to “0” on page 18, or if you set “Speaker 2ch” or “Speaker 3ch” in “Speaker Setup” on page 19. Consider the listening angle as being formed from the left and right

front speakers since the

virtual surround signals are output from the front speakers.

• If you cannot place the surround speakers in the correct position. – Place each surround speaker on top of or on the outer side of each front speaker of the same side. – Consider the listening angle as being formed from the left and right

surround speakers since

the virtual surround signals are output from the surround speakers.

Set “Lisng. Angle” to one of the following settings, which you feel is most effective (the listening angles in the parentheses are the ideal degrees):

• Normal (30°)

• Wide (40°)

• Narrow (20°)

Theater-Dimensional controls the direct sounds from the speakers not the sounds reflected from the walls. Therefore, if the distances between the speakers and the walls are too short such as when the speaker system is placed in the corner of the room, and because of it, the reflected sounds reach the listener’s ears too soon, the reflected sounds interfere with the virtual surround sounds.

In such a case, set “Corner” to “On,” then the CORNER indicator lights up in the display.

CORNER

This may enhance the sound depending on the situation. (The factory setting is “Off,” which is the normal mode.)

Note

If the virtual surround sound is not enhanced with the corner mode, change the speaker positioning or cover the walls with acoustic materials.

Balance mode

(“Balance” appears in the display.)

Left speaker Right speaker

L+R+

R+5→...→R+1→0←L+1←...←L+5

Dialog mode

(“Dialog Mode” appears in the display.)

The listener should be on the center line between the left and right speakers. But if the situation does not allow you to sit in such an ideal position, you can adjust the balance.

Set “Balance” to one of the following 11 values, which you feel is most effective: R+5, R+4, R+3, R+2, R+1, 0, L+1, L+2, L+3, L+4, and L+5.

The following tips may help you select the value:

• If the listener sits on the center line, then the factory setting “0” should be set as the balance, and

• If the listener sits on the right side of the center line towards the front speakers, select “L+.”

If the listener sits on the left side, select “R+.” A larger value should be selected as the listening position becomes farther from the center line.

Notes

• The effect obtained with the balance adjustment may become less effective compared to the effect you obtain when you are actually on the center line.

• If the listening position is too far from the center line, the balance adjustment may not be able to correct the balance completely.

The dialog in the film may sound less clear because of the music or other sounds depending on the movie or scene.

In such a case, set “Dialog” to “Enhance .” (The f actory setting is “Normal” which is the normal mode.)

Notes

• This function emphasizes the dialog in the center channel since the dialog sound, in most films, is allocated to

the center channel. Therefore, if the dialog is not in the center channel, the sound will not be enhanced.

• Depending on the type of source, this mode is not very effective.

–“3 Stereo” appears instead of “Pro Logic”

if the surround left and right speaker field is set to “0” on page 18, or if “Speaker 3ch” is selected on page 19.

“3 Stereo” stands for DOLBY 3 STEREO.

– Skipped if both the center speaker field

and surround left and right speaker field are set to “0” on page 18, or if “Speaker 2ch” is selected on page 19.

A tip to apply a DSP mode to the DOLBY DIGITAL Surround sound of a DVD video

You can change the format of the sound signal being output to the speakers and output jacks using the menu (see page 48). This means, for example, even if DOLBY DIGITAL Surround sound is played by the DVD Receiver, you can output sound to the speakers in the 48 kHz/16 bit format, which lets you to use the DSP sound effects instead of DOLBY DIGITAL Surround.

Enjoying the Sound Effects

Using the LATE NIGHT/FRONT EFFECT Function

• The LATE NIGHT function operates when the sound is DOLBY DIGITAL Surround.

If you play a movie at low volume at night, set this function to “Low” or “High” to narrow the dynamic range of the sound and make it easier to hear.

• The FRONT EFFECT function operates with DSP modes other than All Ch Stereo.

If you use one of the DSP sound effects with a source containing acoustic reverberation, the sound may become unclear because of too much reverberation. In such case, set this function to “Off.” The DSP sound effect will not add additional reverberation to the sound output to the three front speakers.

To Listen to a High-Frequency/HighQuantization Format Source in its Original Sound Quality – 96k Sound

The high frequency/high quantization sound signals below are converted into 48 kHz/16 bit sound signals and sent to the speakers when the “Audio Out Select” (sound signal conversion method) is set to the standard setting, “Bitstream.”

High frequency/high quantization signals

• 48 kHz/24 bit

• 96 kHz/16 bit

• 96 kHz/20 bit

• 96 kHz/24 bit

To listen to the high-frequency (kHz)/hight-quantization (bit) format sounds in their original sound quality, follow the steps below.

1

Change the sound signal conversion method to “96k Sound” following the steps on the left.

See a in the table titled “Sound from the speakers” on the opposite page. The DVD videos recorded in 48 kHz/24 bit, 96 kHz/16 bit, 96 kHz/20 bit, and 96 kHz/ 24 bit are reproduced through the speakers at the same kHz and bit rate respectively.

To turn off the audio setting display

CLEAR

Press CLEAR.

Notes

• The “Audio Out Select” setting in the setting menu (see page 56) is

for automatic selection of the sound conversion method when the disc is inserted. Therefore, the selection in this section will not change the setting of “Audio Out Select” in the setting menu.

• When you turn on the DVD Receiver or replace a disc, the DVD

Receiver returns to the automatic setting in the setting menu. (See page 56.)

Change the sound to stereo.

See “Changing the Sound to Stereo” on page 38.

Note

If the speakers were setup using Smart Configuration (see page 17), the subwoofer data such as characteristic frequency will be erased by the above steps. To recover the data, carry out the Smart Configuration setup again.

DVD

Changing the DOLBY DIGIT AL Surr ound Sound Format to the Digitally Recordable Frequency (kHz)/Quantization (bit)

Change the sound signal conversion method to “PCM” following the steps in “Changing the Sound Signal Conversion Method T emporarily” on the opposite page.

Referring to c in the table below, the DOLBY DIGITAL Surround format will be converted into the 48 kHz/16 bit format which is recordable.

DVD

Reproducing MPEG2 Sounds from DVD Videos

Referring to g in the table below, MPEG2 sound is not reproduced from the speakers when the sound signal conversion method is the factory setting, “Bitstream.”

To reproduce MPEG2 sound from DVD Videos, change the sound signal conversion method to “96k Sound” or “PCM” following the steps in “Changing the Sound Signal Conversion Method T emporarily” on the opposite page.

Output sound conversion tables

Changing the MPEG2 Sound Format of the DVD video to Analog Signals for Recording

Digital recording of MPEG2 sounds is impossible regardless of the sound signal conversion methods. However, analog recording of MPEG2 is possible if you change the sound format to analog signals.

To record MPEG2 sounds from the analog output jacks, change the sound signal conversion method to “96k Sound” or “PCM” following the steps in “Changing the Sound Signal Conversion Method Temporarily” on the opposite page.

Referring to i in the table below, the MPEG2 format will be converted into the recordable analog signals using the 48 kHz/16 bit format, whereas the MPEG2 sounds are not output to the analog output jacks when the sound signal conversion method is “Bitstream” (h in the table below).

Symbols in the tables

• The symbols a, c, g, h, and i are referred to on the previous page and this page.

DVD

Recording Using the Connected Equipment

Recording the Picture and Sound From Different Sources at the Same Time

The picture from the playing VIDEO 2 source is output through the VIDEO OUT jacks when you select any audio source (TAPE/MD, FM, or AM) or TV/LINE.

Play the VIDEO 2 source and select TAPE/MD, FM, AM, or TV/LINE, then you can record the picture from the VIDEO 2 source and the sound from the selected input source at the same time, using the recording equipment connected to the VIDEO 1 jacks.

Digital recording from the source connected to the digital input connectors to the digital recording equipment connected to the digital output connector

The digital input connectors are as follows:

• The VIDEO 1 DIGITAL INPUT (OPT) connector, and

• The VIDEO 2 DIGITAL INPUT (COAX) connector.

The digital output connector is the DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPT) connector.

Recording digital sound signals from sources connected to the digital input connectors using digital recording equipment connected to the digital output is possible unless:

• The recording is against SCMS (Serial Copy Management System) rules (for details of SCMS rules, refer to the manual of the digital recording equipment),

• The digital signals are in bitstream format (the recordable digital signal format is PCM –– two channel digital stereo sound signals), or

• The sampling frequency is out of the recordable range of the recording equipment (for recordable sampling frequency, refer to the manual of the digital recording equipment). Note that the maximum signal frequency output from the DVD Receiver is 48 kHz.

Analog recording from a DVD Video

DVD

played using the DVD Receiver

The digital sound signals are converted to analog signals and output to the analog output jacks unless the DVD video is recorded in the DTS Surround or MPEG2 system.

MPEG2 sounds can be recorded by changing the sound signal conversion method to “96k Sound” or “PCM.” For details, see page 49.

Although the speakers can reproduce DTS Surround sounds, DTS signals are not output to the analog output jacks. See e in the table on page 49.

Note

If the sound signal conversion method is set to “96k Sound,” reproduced PCM signals may not be output from the digital output connector (DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPT)) depending on the frequency and quantization. See also the second note in “Digital recording from a DVD video played by the DVD Receiver” in the right column of this page.

Digital recording from a DVD video played by the DVD Receiver

The digital sound signals are output to the DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPT) connector in the most suitable format when the sound signal conversion method is set to “Bitstream” (see page 56). However, if the conversion method is set to “Bitstream” or “96k Sound” when DOLBY DIGITAL Surround sound is reproduced, the signals will be output in the bitstream format from the DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPT) connector as in b in the table on page 49. The bitstream signals are unrecordable. Therefore, to record the sounds recorded in the DOLBY DIGITAL Surround sound format, you need to change the conversion method to “PCM.” Once the conversion method is changed to “PCM,” the DOLBY DIGITAL sound signals are converted into the 2 channel 48 kHz/16 bit PCM format as in c in the same table mentioned above.

Digital recording of MPEG2 sounds is impossible regardless of the sound signal conversion methods. (Analog recording is possible. See on the left.)

DTS Surround sound is unrecordable from both the digital output connector and analog output jacks regardless of the sound signal conversion methods.

Notes

• If the conversion method is set to “PCM,” the DTS Surround sounds of a DVD video will not be reproduced from the speakers nor output to the DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPT) connector. See f in the tables on page 49.

• If the sound signal conversion method is set to “96k Sound,” the DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPT) connector will not output any signals depending on the frequency and quantization as in d in the table on page 49. To digitally record high frequency PCM sound signals, the conversion method must be set to “Bitstream” or “PCM,” so that the frequency/quantization are converted to the 48 kHz/16 bit format, which is recordable.

Analog and Digital recording from a

VCD

VIDEO CD played using the D VD Receiver

VIDEO CDs are recorded in the MPEG1 format. MPEG1 sounds are recordable regardless of the conversion method. MPEG1 sound signals are output to the DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPT) connector in the 44.1 kHz/16 bit format, and at the same time, converted to analog signals and output to the analog jacks.

Analog and Digital recording from an

CD

audio CD played using the DVD Receiver

PCM sound signals are output to the DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPT) connector, and converted to analog signals and output to the analog output jacks regardless of the conversion method.

DTS Surround sound is unrecordable. Because DTS Surround sound signals of an audio CD are output to the DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPT) connector in the bitstream format and no signal will be output to the analog output jacks regardless of the conversion method. For details, see the tables on page 49.

Before programming the remote controller

• If the SEND/LEARN indicator flashes three times, the programming is unsuccessful. Repeat from step 2.

• Use new batteries for the remote controller and the TV’s remote control. Using old batteries may result in a failure in programming or cause the programmed remote controller buttons to operate improperly.

• The remote controller and most other remote controls transmit infrared rays, however, if the other remote control uses another method, programming is impossible.

• Although seven buttons are prepared for operating the TV, the number of programmable buttons varies depending on the manufacturer and type of the other remote control.

• Switch off the main power of the DVD Receiver and TV to prevent the units from undesired operation during programming.

• The remote control buttons on some TVs may have more than one function; however, only one function can be programmed per button.

• Refer also to the TV’s instruction manual for details on its remote control operation and other information.

Programming the Remote Controller

Programming is carried out by copying the signal patterns of the TV’s remote control buttons.

Sound is distorted or sound volume decreases.

Tuner

Sound is excessively distorted.

No preset channels are selected.

Sound is reproduced from the speakers but not recorded.

Recording

Causes

• FM stereo waves may produce a hiss noise when a certain level is reached.

• The station is too weak.

• The radio wave is distorted.

• Cars are running or airplanes are flying

near the house.

• There is a tall building or a mountain

nearby.

[The waves transmitted from the

transmission center (direct waves) and the waved reflected by buildings or mountains (diffraction waves) interfere with each other causing multi pass distortion.]
