Precautions

For British models

Replacement and mounting of an AC plug on the power supply cord of this unit should be performed only by qualified service personnel.

IMPORTANT

1. Region Numbers

The DVD standard uses region numbers to control how discs can be played around the world, the world being divided into six regions. This unit will only play DVD discs that match its region number, which can be found on its rear panel (e.g., 1 ).

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Blue: Neutral Brown: Live

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black.

The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.

2. About this Manual

This manual explains how to use all of this unit’s functions. Although the DVD standard offers many special features, not all discs use them all, so depending on the disc being played, this unit may not respond to certain functions. See the disc’s sleeve notes for supported features.

When you attempt to use a DVD feature that is not available, this logo may appear onscreen, indicating that the feature is not supported by the current disc or this unit.

3. Recording Copyright

Unless it’s for personal use only, recording copyrighted material is illegal without the permission of the copyright holder.

IMPORTANT

The plug is fitted with an appropriate fuse. If the fuse needs to be replaced, the replacement fuse must approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362 and have the same ampere rating as that indicated on the plug. Check for the ASTA mark or the BSI mark on the body of the fuse.

IF THE FITTED MOULDED PLUG IS UNSUITABLE FOR THE SOCKET OUTLET IN YOUR HOME THEN THE FUSE SHOULD BE REMOVED AND THE PLUG CUT OFF AND DISPOSED OF SAFELY. THERE IS A DANGER OF SEVERE ELECTRICAL SHOCK IF THE CUT OFF PLUG IS INSERTED INTO ANY 13 AMPERE SOCKET.

If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

•If you install this unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the picture and sound quality may be affected. If this occurs, move this unit away from the TV, radio, or VCR.

7. Care

Occasionally, you should dust this unit all over with a soft cloth. For stubborn stains, use a soft cloth dampened with a weak solution of mild detergent and water. Dry the unit immediately afterwards with a clean cloth. Do not use abrasive cloths, thinners, alcohol, or other chemical solvents, because they may damage the finish or remove the panel lettering.

8. Handling Notes

•If you need to transport this unit, use the original packaging to pack it how it was when you originally bought it.

•Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect sprays, near this unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic items on this unit for a long time, because they may leave marks on the case.

•This unit’s top and rear panels may get warm after prolonged use. This is normal.

•When you’ve finished using this unit, remove all discs and turn off the power.

1 Detach the battery cover.

2Insert two size-AA/R6 batteries.

Be sure to match the + and – ends of the batteries with to diagram inside the battery

compartment.

3 Attach the battery cover.

•Do not mix new batteries with old batteries or different kinds of batteries.

•To avoid corrosion, remove the batteries if you do not intend to use the remote controller for a long time.

•Remove dead batteries immediately to avoid damage from corrosion. If the remote controller does not operate smoothly, replace both batteries at the same time.

•The batteries should last for about six months, although this will vary with usage.

Point the remote controller toward the remote control sensor.

•Place the unit away from strong light, such as direct sunlight or inverted fluorescent light, which can prevent proper operation of the remote controller.

•Using another remote controller of the same type in the same room or using the unit near equipment that uses infrared rays may cause operational interference.

•Do not put any object (such as a book) on the remote controller. The buttons of the remote controller may be pressed by mistake, which drains the batteries.

•Make sure the audio rack doors do not have colored glass. Placing the unit behind such doors may prevent proper remote controller operation.

•If there is an obstacle between the remote controller and the remote control sensor, the remote controller will not operate.

Connections

Before Making Any Connections

•Read the manuals supplied with your AV components.

•Don’t connect the power cord until you’ve completed and double-checked all audio and video connections.

Optical Digital Inputs

The DV-S155X’s optical digital inputs have shutter-type covers that open when an optical plug is inserted and close when it’s removed. Push plugs in all the way.

Caution: To prevent shutter damage, hold the optical plug straight when inserting and removing.

RCA AV Connection Color Coding

RCA-type AV connections are usually color coded: red, white, and yellow. Use red plugs to connect right-channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “R”). Use white plugs to connect left-channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “L”). And use yellow plugs to connect composite video inputs and outputs.

Right (red)	Analog audio	Right (red)
Left (white)		Left (white)

Connecting your television

Here’s how to connect the DV-S155X to your television so you can view DVD and other images. The connection method depends on the type of connector you use. Depending on the connectors that your television has, connect either the component jacks, the S-video jack, or the composite jack.

■ If your television has component video input jacks

Use commercially-available component video connection cables to connect the DV-S155X’s component video output jacks to the component video inputs of your television.

To switch the video output type

If your television supports progressive-scan video, you can use the PROGRESSIVE button on the DV-S155X or on the remote to switch the video output type. Do this while playback is stopped.

Progressive (NTSC only):

This is the higher-quality mode that produces a sharper image. Choose this if you’ve connected a television that supports progressive input. The “PROGRESSIVE” indicator in the display area will light.

Interlaced (default setting):

Choose this if you’ve connected a television that does not support progressive video input.

Note

•If you choose Progressive when the DV-S155X is connected to a television that doesn’t support progressive input, the image will not be output correctly. Press the remote’s PROGRESSIVE button to turn off progressive mode.

•The image may be garbled when you switch between progressive and interlaced modes.

Regarding the DV-S155X’s compatibility with progressive-scan televisions

At present, some progressive-scan televisions are not completely compatible with the DV-S155X, and can produce garbled images. If you experience problems when using progressive playback, turn off progressive mode on the DV-S155X and use the progressive function provided on your television.
