IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS AND PRE CAU TIONS
For assistance, please call : 1-800-211-PANA(7262) or, contact us via the web at:http://www.panasonic.com/contactinfo
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 cassettes or 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 locations [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 con dense 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
dam aged.
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 injur y 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.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, FIRE, INJURY TO
PERSONS OR DAMAGE TO THIS PRODUCT, READ AND RETAIN ALL
SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS. HEED ALL WARNINGS IN
THE MANUAL AND ON THE PRODUCT.
INSTALLATION
1 POWER SOURCE CAUTION
Operate only from power source indicated on
unit or in this manual. If uncer tain, 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 necessar y, 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.
WARNING
7
Getting Started
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, con nec tion 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.

Playing older or damaged tapes may eventually
cause video heads to become clogged.
A clean video head helps produce a clear picture.
So, we have equipped your unit with a built-in,
nonchemical head cleaning system that helps
prevent clogging of the video heads. Cleaning is
performed each time you load or unload a video

IMPORTANT NOTE:
Caution for optical digital audio output
connector:
• When connecting an amplifier (with an optical
digital input connector) which does not contain
the Dolby Digital or dts decoder, be sure to
select “PCM” at “Dolby Digital” and “PCM” at “dts”
in the Settings for DVD Operation “Selecting
AUDIO OUTPUT” (see pages 64-65). Other wise,
any attempt to play DVDs may cause such a high
level of noise that it may be harmful to your ears
and damage your speakers.
• Be sure to refer to pages 64-65 regarding output
settings of Dolby Digital, dts, and PCM.
• CDs can be played as usual.

The type of audio output from the connector can
be selected by adjusting the Settings for DVD
Operation. (See pages 64-65.)

When "LPCM" is set to OFF in the DVD Main
Menu, only 48 kHz sampling/16 bit is output.
When set to ON, sampling of sound quality
greater than 48 kHz/16 bit is reduced to
48 kHz/16 bit. (See pages 64-65.)
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 ef ficiently 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.
Turn down the volume, then turn this unit, as
well as other equipment to be connected, off
before pro ceed ing with connection.
Do not block ventilation holes of any equipment
and arrange it so that air can circulate freely.
