Warranty Claim

Notes on Moisture Condensation

You can find the serial number on the rear panel. In case of warranty claim, please report this number.

Notes on Handling

When shipping the DVD player, the original shipping carton and packing materials come in handy. For maximum protection, repack the unit as it was originally packed at the factory. Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near the DVD player. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the DVD player for a long time. They will leave marks on the finish. The top and rear panels of the DVD player may become

warm after a long period of use. This is not a malfunction.

When the DVD player is not in use, be sure to remove the disc and turn off the power. If you do not use the DVD player for a long period, the unit may not function properly in the future. Turn on and use the DVD player occasionally.

Notes on Placement

When you place this DVD player near a TV, radio, or VCR, the playback picture may become poor and the sound may be distorted. In this case, place the DVD player away from the TV, radio, or VCR.

Moisture condensation damages the DVD player. Please read the following carefully.

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 this unit, one of the most crucial internal parts of the DVD player.

Moisture condensation occurs during the following cases.

When you bring the DVD player directly from a cold place to a warm place. When you use the DVD player 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 DVD player in a hot and humid place just after you move the unit from an air conditioned room. When you use the DVD player in a humid place.

Introduction

Notes on Cleaning

Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.

For stubborn dirt, soak the cloth in a weak detergent solution, wring well and wipe. Use a dry cloth to wipe it dry. Do not use any type of solvent, such as thinner and benzine, as they may damage the surface of the DVD player. If you use a chemical saturated cloth to clean the unit, follow that product’s instructions.

To Obtain a Clear Picture

The DVD player is a high technology, precision device. If the optical pick-up 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.

Do not use the DVD player when moisture condensation may occur.

If you use the DVD player in such a situation, it may damage discs and internal parts. Remove the disc, connect the power cord of the DVD player to the wall outlet, turn on the DVD player, and leave it for two or three hours. After two or three hours, the DVD player will have warmed up and evaporated any moisture. Keep the DVD player connected to the wall outlet and moisture condensation will seldom occur.

Connections for remote control ( z )

When connecting ONKYO products, it is necessary to attach the z cable to be able to use the remote controller of the main component to control the entire system.

1.To use this DVD player with an amplifier (or receiver), cassette tape deck and tuner with the z symbol, insert the remote control cable plugs into the REMOTE CONTROL jacks.

2.As the exact connection sequence of the z cable is unimportant, you can connect from the amplifier (or receiver) to either the tuner, the cassette tape deck or to the compact disc player.

3.If using an z equipped ONKYO amplifier (or receiver), to operate correctly, the remote control must face towards the remote control sensor of the amplifier (or receiver).

Notes:

• The upper and lower z remote control jacks have the same function.

• Remote control operation is not possible when only the remote control cable is connected — the audio connection cables must also be connected.

• An z remote control cable equipped with a 1/8" (3.5mm) diameter miniature two-conductor phone plug is included with the DV-S717 and with every tuner, compact disc player or cassette tape deck with the z symbol.

■ DVD Display

• Pressing of the DIMMER button changes the brightness of the Display.

COMPONENT VIDEO OUT (COLOR DIFFERENCE):

Some TVs or monitors are equipped with color difference inputs. Connecting to these inputs allows you to enjoy higher quality picture playback. Actual labels for color difference inputs may vary depending on the TV manufacturer. (ex. Y, B-Y, R-Y etc.) In some TVs or monitors, the color levels of the playback picture may be reduced slightly or the tint may change. In such a case, adjust the TV or monitor for optimum performance.

Notes:

• Refer to the instruction manual of the connected equipment as well.

• When you connect the DVD player to other equipment, be sure to turn off the power and unplug all of the equipment from the wall outlet

before making any connections.

• If you place the DVD player near a tuner or radio, the radio broadcast sound might be distorted. In this case, place the DVD player away from the tuner and radio.

• The output sound of the DVD player has a wide dynamic range. Be sure to adjust the receiver’s volume to a moderate listening level. Otherwise, the speakers may be damaged by a sudden high volume sound.

• Turn off the amplifier before you connect or disconnect the DVD player’s power cord. If you leave the amplifier power on, the speakers may be damaged.

Connecting to Optional Equipment

You can enjoy high quality dynamic sounds by connecting the DVD player to optional audio equipment.

For connection to your TV, see pages 12 and 13. Select the connection type depending on your audio equipment.

When connecting the optical digital cable, remove the cap and fit the connector into the jack firmly. When not using the jack, keep it capped to protect it from dust intrusion.

Connecting to an Amplifier Equipped With a Dolby Digital Decoder

Dolby Digital

Dolby Digital is the surround sound technology used in theaters showing the latest movies, and is now available to reproduce this realistic effect in the home. You can enjoy motion picture and live concert DVD video discs with this dynamic realistic sound by connecting the DVD player to a 6 channel amplifier equipped with a Dolby Digital decoder or Dolby Digital processor. If you have a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder, you will obtain the full benefit of Pro Logic from the same DVD movies that provide full 5.1-channel Dolby Digital soundtracks, as well as from titles with the Dolby Surround mark.
