Important Safeguards and Precautions

READ AND RETAIN ALL SAFETY AND
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS. HEED ALL
WARNINGS IN THE MANUAL AND ON UNIT

INSTALLATION

1 POWER SOURCE CAUTION

Operate only from power source indicated on unit
or in this manual. If uncertain, have your Electric
Utility Service Company or Video Products Dealer
verify your home power source.

2 POWER CORD PLUG

For safety, this unit has a polarized type plug (one wide
blade), or a three-wire grounding type plug. Always
hold the plug firmly and make sure your hands are
dry when plugging in or unplugging the AC power cord.
Regularly remove dust, dirt, etc. on the plug.

POLARIZED PLUG CAUTION:

The plug fits into outlet only one way. If it cannot be
fully inserted, try reversing it. If it still will not fit, have
an electrician install the proper wall outlet. Do not
tamper with the plug.

GROUNDING PLUG CAUTION:

The plug requires a three-hole grounding outlet.
If necessary, have an electrician install the proper
outlet. Do not tamper with the plug.

3 POWER CORD

To avoid unit malfunction, and to protect against
electrical shock, fire or personal injury:

- Keep power cord away from heating appliances
and walking traffic. Do not rest heavy objects on,
or roll such objects over the power cord.

- Do not tamper with the cord in any way.

- An extension cord should have the same type
plug (polarized or grounding) and must be securely
connected.

- Overloaded wall outlets or extension cords are
fire hazards.

- Frayed cords, damaged plugs, and damaged or
cracked wire insulation are hazardous and should
be replaced by a qualified electrician.

4 DO NOT BLOCK VENTILATION HOLES

Ventilation openings in the cabinet release heat
generated during operation. If blocked, heat
build-up may result in a fire hazard or heat
damage to discs.
For your protection:
a. Never cover ventilation slots while unit is ON,

or operate unit while placed on a bed, sofa,
rug, or other soft surface.

b. Avoid built-in installation, such as a book case

or rack, unless properly ventilated.

5

AVOID EXTREMELY HOT LOCATIONS OR

SUDDEN TEMPERATURE CHANGES

Do not place unit over or near a heater or radiator, in
direct sunlight, inside closed vehicles,
in high temperature [over 95 °F (35 °C)], or in over
75% humidity. If unit is suddenly moved from a
cold place to a warm one, moisture may condense in
unit and on the tape causing damage. Never subject
unit to vibration, impact, or place it so that the
surface is tilted as internal parts may be seriously
damaged.

6 TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY

• Never place unit on support or stand that is not
firm, level, and adequately strong. The unit could
fall causing serious injury to a child
or adult and damage to the unit.

• Move any appliance and cart
combination with care.
Quick stops, excessive force, and
uneven surfaces may cause objects to overturn.

• Carefully follow all operating instructions.

OUTDOOR ANTENNA INSTALLATION

1 SAFE ANTENNA AND CABLE CONNECTION

An outside antenna or cable system must be properly
grounded to provide some protection
against built up static charges
and voltage. Section 810
of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70 (in Canada,
part 1 of the Canadian Electrical
Code) provides information
regarding proper grounding of
the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire
to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,
location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding
electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

2 KEEP ANTENNA CLEAR OF HIGH VOLTAGE

POWER LINES OR CIRCUITS

Locate an outside antenna system well away from power
lines and electric light or power circuits so it will never touch
these power sources should it ever fall. When installing
antenna, absolutely never touch power lines, circuits or
other power sources as this could be fatal.

3 ELECTRICAL STORMS

During a lightning storm, or before leaving unit unused for
extended periods of time, disconnect all equipment from the
power source as well as the antenna and cable system.

4 WHEN UNIT IS PLUGGED IN

• DO NOT OPERATE IF:

- unit emits smoke, odours, or noises.
Immediately unplug unit, and have it inspected by a service
technician to avoid potential fire and shock hazards.

Never drop or push any object through openings in unit.

•

Touching internal parts may cause electric shock or fire hazard.
Do not put any foreign object on the tray.

• Keep magnetic objects, such as speakers, away from
unit to avoid electrical interference.

5 USING ACCESSORIES

Use only accessories recommended by the manufacturer to
avoid risk of fire, shock, or other hazards.

6 CLEANING UNIT

Unplug unit. Use a clean, dry, chemically untreated cloth to
gently remove dust or debris. DO NOT USE cleaning fluids,
aerosols, or forced air that could over-spray, or seep into unit and
cause electrical shock. Any substance, such as wax, adhesive
tape, etc. may mar the cabinet surface. Exposure to greasy,
humid, or dusty areas may adversely affect internal parts.

unit does not operate properly, do not attempt to open or remove
covers, or make any adjustments not described in the manual.
Unplug unit and contact a qualified service technician.

2 REPLACEMENT OF PARTS

Make sure the service technician uses only parts specified
by the manufacturer, or have equal safety characteristics
as original parts. The use of unauthorized substitutes may
result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.

3 SAFETY CHECK AFTER SERVICING

Turn down the volume, then turn this unit, as well as
other equipment to be connected, off before
proceeding with connection.

Do not block ventilation holes of any of the
equipment and arrange them so that air can circulate
freely.

Read through the instructions before connecting
other equipment.

Ensure that you observe the color coding when
connecting audio and video cables.

*2 Sound having 96 kHz sampling is converted into 48

digital audio output connector.

For your reference:

• Dolby Digital is a digital sound compression technique
developed by the Dolby Laboratories Licensing
Corporation. Supporting 5.1-channel surround sound,
as well as stereo (2-channel) sound, this technique
enables a large quantity of sound data to be efficiently
recorded on a disc.

• Linear PCM is a signal recording format used in CDs.
While CDs are recorded in 44.1 kHz/16 bit, DVDs are
recorded in 48 kHz/16 bit up to 96 kHz/24 bit.

• 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. For information on Panasonic or
Technics Dolby Pro Logic Surround Sound Decoders
please contact your local dealer.

your ears and damage your speakers.

• When a dts decoder is connected,
please select “Bitstream” at “dts” of the
Settings for DVD Operation “AUDIO
OUTPUT”. If “OFF” is selected, there
will be no sound. (See page 47).

• Video CDs and CDs can be played
