Cautions
• Ensure that all audio/video cables are properly connected before plugging in the power plug.
The player is not disconnected from the AC power source as long as it is connected to the wall
outlet, even if the player itself has been turned off.
• The acceptable power input range is AC ~ 100V-240V, 50/60Hz
• Before turning on the power of the player, please adjust the volume level of TVs, audio system
speakers and amplifiers to the minimum. Adjust the volume as necessary only after normal
playback has started to avoid damage to your hearing and equipments.
• Do not put the player near any high power loudspeakers so as to avoid any interference due to
vibration or magnetic fields.
• Before moving the player, take out any discs. Otherwise the disc may be damaged.
• When moving the player from a cold place to a warm one, or vice versa, moisture may
condense on the laser pickup unit inside the player. Should this occur, the player may not
operate properly. In such a case please turn the power on for 1-2 hours (without disc) until the
moisture evaporates.
• Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls only with a soft cloth slightly moistened with water or a
mild detergent solution. Never use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent such
as alcohol or benzene for cleaning.

S-Video Cable (Optional)
Method 1 – HDMI Connection Directly to TV
• If your TV has an HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) input, you can use the included
HDMI cable to connect the DVD player to the TV. This connection method delivers both video
and audio in pure digital format via a single cable. The HDMI video output of the DVD player
presents the highest possible resolutions and video quality.
• You may connect the composite video or S-Video cable to the TV for trouble-shooting purpose,
just in case there is a problem with HDMI. However it is not recommended to use the
composite video or S-Video as the primary method of video delivery to the TV, because using it
will lose the advantage of video up-conversion and you will only get standard definition video.

Method 2 – DVI Connection to TV
• If your TV has a DVI input, you can purchase an HDMI-DVI adapter cable to connect the DVD
player to the TV. This connection method delivers digital video to the TV without any signal
degradation. The HDMI video output of the OPPO DVD player presents the highest possible
resolutions and video quality.
• Please use the Red/White audio cables to connect the MIXED audio output of the DVD player
to the TV. Make sure the audio cables are connected to the same input terminal group on the
TV as the DVI input. Usually the input terminals are marked as “DVI Audio” or “PC Audio”. On
some TVs you may need to use an RCA-3.5mm Mini-Jack adapter cable to connect the audio.
• You may connect the composite video or S-Video cable to the TV for trouble-shooting purpose,
just in case there is a problem with DVI. However it is not recommended to use the composite
video or S-Video as the primary method of video delivery to the TV, because using it will lose
the advantage of video up-conversion and you will only get standard definition video.

Connecting to an Audio System
Connecting to a Receiver/Amplifier with HDMI Input/Output
Method 3 – HDMI Connection to Receiver and TV
• HDMI can transmit both audio and video signals over a single cable. If you have an HDMI-
capable receiver that can support HDMI audio, you can simply run an HDMI cable from the DVD
player to your receiver and enable HDMI audio on the receiver (see your receiver’s owners’
manual for more information). The receiver usually has an HDMI output that you can connect to
your TV to pass video signal.
10
INSTALLATION
Connecting to a Receiver/Amplifier with 5.1ch Audio Input
Method 4 – 5.1ch Analog Audio Connection
• Please use 6 RCA-style audio interconnect cables to connect the FRONT L/R, SURROUND
L/R, CENTER and SUBWOOFER analog outputs of the OPPO DVD player to the
corresponding multi-channel analog audio input jacks of your A/V receiver.
11
INSTALLATION
Connecting to a Receiver/Amplifier with Dolby Digital or DTS Decoder
Method 5 – Digital Audio Connection
• Please use either a 75-Ohm coaxial digital audio cable with RCA-style connectors or an S/PDIF
optical digital audio cable to connect one of the digital audio outputs to the corresponding input
terminal on your A/V receiver.
NOTE
• Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories. “Dolby” and the double-D

• “DTS” and “DTS Digital Out” are trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.
• Due to copy-control restrictions and bandwidth limitation, full resolution audio output
from DVD-Audio or SACD playback cannot be sent through the coaxial or optical
digital audio output. To listen to DVD-Audio or SACD in full resolution, please use
HDMI or 5.1ch analog audio connections.
12
INSTALLATION
Connecting to a Stereo or Surround Audio System
Method 6 – Stereo Analog Audio Connection
• If your audio system only offers stereo audio inputs, you can connect it to the MIXED L/R audio
outputs of the DVD player using the supplied Red/White audio cables. Depending on the
capability of your audio system, you may set up your DVD player with one of the following
configurations:
• If the audio system does not have surround speakers, please set the down-mix mode to
“Stereo” or “V. Surround”.
• If the audio system has surround speakers and Dolby Pro Logic Surround support, please
set the down-mix mode to “Lt/Rt”.
