Listening caution

Do not play your headphones or earphones at a high volume. Hearing experts advise against
continuous extended play.
If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue use.
Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in
many areas.
You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous
situations.
Even if your headphones or earphones are the open-air type designed to let you hear
outside sounds, don’t turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s around you.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of
sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:

≥Start your volume control at a low setting.
≥

Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
≥Set the dial and leave it there.

Playing HighMAT discs

HighMAT (High performance Media Access
Technology) is a new standard for storing audio,
image, and video data files on CD media. When
you create a HighMAT CD using compliant PC
software, you can make playlist settings and
also record text information such as titles and
artist names. File searching is made easy using
CDs recorded in HighMAT through use of a
versatile navigation system. CDs recorded in
HighMAT can also be played on your PC.

This unit is compatible with HighMAT discs
containing WMA, MP3, or JPEG data. There are
some differences from other WMA/MP3/JPEG
discs.

Recording to digital recording equipment or cassette tapes

≥Digital recording

You can record the digital signal directly to digital recording equipment.
Connect the recording equipment with an optical fiber cable (➡ [A] page 34).

Note

≥With DVD, the following conditions must be met: a the disc doesn’t have protection preventing

digital recording, and b the recording equipment can handle signals with a sampling frequency of

48 kHz.
≥You cannot record WMA/MP3.
When recording DVDs, make the following settings.
Advanced Surround: OFF (➡ page 25)
PCM Down Conversion: Yes (➡ page 32)
Dolby Digital/DTS Digital Surround: PCM (➡ page 33)

≥Analog recording

You can record to a cassette deck or other recording equipment. There are no limitations on
recording analog signals as there are with digital signals.
Connect the recording equipment with the stereo connection cable (➡ [B] page 34).

Bitstream

The digital form of multi-channel data (e.g.,

5.1 channel) before decoding.

Decoder

A decoder restores the coded audio signals on
DVDs to normal. This is called decoding.

Dolby Digital

This is a method of coding digital signals
developed by Dolby Laboratories. Apart from
stereo (2-channel) audio, these signals can also
be multi-channel audio. A large amount of audio
information can be recorded on the disc using
this method.

Dolby Pro Logic

A surround system where a 4-channel audio
track is recorded as 2 channels and then is
restored to 4 channels for play. The surround
channel is monaural and can reproduce up to
7 kHz.

DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

This surround system is used in many movie
theaters around the world. There is good
separation between the channels, so realistic
sound effects are possible.

Dynamic range

Dynamic range is the difference between the
lowest level of sound that can be heard above
the noise of the equipment and the highest level
of sound before distortion occurs.

Frame still and field still

Frames are the still pictures that make moving
pictures. About thirty are shown each second. A
frame still may appear blurred but overall quality
is high.
Two fields appear alternately to make up one
frame. A field still is not blurred but picture
quality is lower.

I/P/B

MPEG 2, the video compression standard
adopted for use with DVD-Video, codes frames
using these 3 picture types.
I: Intra coded picture

This picture has the best quality and is the
best to use when adjusting the picture.

P: Predictive coded picture

This picture is calculated based on past I or
P-pictures.

B: Bidirectionally-predictive coded picture

This picture is calculated by comparing past
and future I and P-pictures so it has the
lowest volume of information.

Linear PCM (pulse code modulation)

These are uncompressed digital signals, similar
to those found on CDs.

Playback control (PBC)

If a Video CD has playback control, you can
select scenes and information with menus.

(“Limited Warranty period”), at its option either (a) repair
your product with new or refurbished parts, or (b)
replace it with a new or a refurbished product. The
decision to repair or replace will be made by the
warrantor.

IF REPAIR IS NEEDED DURING THE LIMITED

AMOUNT PAID AND PLACE OF PURCHASE.
CUSTOMER WILL BE CHARGED FOR THE REPAIR
OF ANY UNIT RECEIVED WITHOUT SUCH PROOF

Limited Warranty Limits And Exclusions

This Limited Warranty ONLY COVERS failures due to
defects in materials or workmanship, and DOES NOT
COVER normal wear and tear or cosmetic damage. The
Limited Warranty ALSO DOES NOT COVER damages
which occurred in shipment, or failures which are
caused by products not supplied by the warrantor, or
failures which result from accidents, misuse, abuse,
neglect, mishandling, misapplication, alteration, faulty
installation, set-up adjustments, misadjustment of
consumer controls, improper maintenance, power line
surge, lightning damage, modification, or commercial
use (such as hotel, office, restaurant, or other business),
rental use of the product, or service by anyone other

or damage that is attributable to acts of God.

THERE ARE NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES EXCEPT

FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
RESULTING FROM THE USE OF THIS PRODUCT,
OR ARISING OUT OF ANY BREACH OF THIS
WARRANTY. (As examples, this excludes damages for

lost time, cost of having someone remove or re-install
an installed unit if applicable, travel to and from the
servicer, loss of or damage to media or images, data or
other recorded content. The items listed are not
exclusive, but are for illustration only.) ALL EXPRESS

AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE
WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, ARE LIMITED
TO THE PERIOD OF THE LIMITED WARRANTY.

Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of
incidental or consequential damages, or limitations on
how long an implied Limited Warranty lasts, so the
exclusions may not apply to you.

This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights and
you may also have other rights which vary from state to
state. If a problem with this product develops during or
after the Limited Warranty period, you may contact your
dealer or Servicenter. If the problem is not handled to
