Environmental Information

Your system consists of materials which can be recycled and reused if disassembled by a specialized company. Please observe the local regulations regarding the disposal of packaging materials, exhausted batteries and old equipment.

Playable Discs

This DVD Home Cinema System will play:

● Digital Video Discs (DVDs)

● Video Compact Discs (VCDs) or Super Video CDs

● All finalized Audio CDs

● MP3 files on Compact Disc Recordable (CD-R) or

Compact Disc Rewritable (CD-RW).

Region Codes

DVDs must be labeled for ALL regions or for Region 1 in order to play on the DVD Receiver of this Home Cinema System. You cannot play Discs that are labeled for other regions. The region code for the DVD Receiver is 1 (one). Look for the correct region symbol on your DVDs. The number inside the globe refers to a region of the world. Region 1 represents the United States of America, Canada, upper regions of North America, Bermuda, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and small regions near Australia.

Color Systems

Different color systems are available throughout the world. DVD makers record DVDs in a certain color system. The color system of the DVD may appear on the DVD or its case. The most common color systems are NTSC, PAL, and SECAM. NTSC is used primarily in the United States and North America. This DVD Receiver is compatible with both NTSC and PAL. Follow the steps on page 26 to set the DVD Receiver to NTSC or PAL. Choose a setting that matches the color system of your TV and your DVDs.

Maintenance and Cleaning

● Clean Discs with a cleaning cloth, wiping from the center

to the edge in a straight line. Do not wipe the Disc in a circular motion.

● Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercial-

ly-available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for analog discs.

● If the DVD Receiver cannot read Discs correctly, use an

accessory cleaning CD/DVD to clean the lens. Other cleaning methods may destroy the lens. Always keep the tray closed to avoid dust on the lens.

● The lens may cloud over if you suddenly move the DVD

Receiver from cold to warm room conditions. If lens clouding occurs, you may not be able to play a Disc. Leave the power on for about one hour with no Disc in the unit until playback is possible.

● Do not expose the receiver, batteries, or discs to humidi-

ty, rain, sand, or excessive heat (from devices or direct sunlight). Always keep the disc tray closed to avoid getting dust on the lens.

• If you are having trouble playing a certain Disc, remove the Disc and try a different one. Improperly formatted Discs will not play on this DVD Receiver.

Where Do You Start?

Disconnect all equipment from power. Connect equipment to power only after you have finished hooking up everything. Do not change connections with equipment connected to a power outlet.

Put the batteries in the remote control and connect the AM and FM antennas as detailed below.

Connect the DVD Receiver to a Television using one of the options detailed in your separate Quick-Use Guide (or on pages 10-12).

● You need only one video connection between the DVD Receiver

and the TV. Use Composite Video (good picture quality), S-Video (better picture), or Component Video (best picture). Use the best connection available with your TV.

● Set the TV to the correct VIDEO IN channel. Such channels

may be called AUX(iliary) IN, AUDIO/VIDEO (A/V) IN, EXT1, SVIDEO, etc. These channels are often near channel 00 on your TV. Or, your TV remote control may have a button or switch that chooses different Video modes. With some TVs, you use the TV’s menu to select a Video mode. See your TV manual for details.

Connect the speakers and Subwoofer to the DVD Receiver as detailed in your Quick-Use Guide (or on page 13).

Battery Installation

Remove the battery compartment lid by pressing in the tab, then lifting off the lid.

Place the batteries in the battery compartment, matching the +/- markings on the batteries to the +/- markings inside the remote.

Replace the battery compartment lid.

Antenna Connections

Connect the supplied AM loop antenna to the AM jack on the rear of the DVD Receiver.

● Reposition the loop antenna to receive the clearest sound for area

stations. Attach the antenna to the base stand if desired.

Connect the supplied FM antenna to the FM jack on the rear of the DVD Receiver. Extend and adjust the antenna until

the clearest station signal is received. For better FM reception, use a 75 ohm coaxial cable (not supplied) to connect the DVD Receiver to an outdoor FM antenna as shown.

26 TV System (NTSC, PAL)

DVDs are recorded according to a color system, the most common of which are NTSC and PAL. NTSC is the most common in the United States. Your TV also operates according to a color system. The DVD Receiver is compatible with both NTSC and PAL. However, to play a DVD, the color system of the DVD, the TV, and the DVD Receiver should match. If all three are not the same, the DVD may play in only black and white, the picture may roll continuously, or the picture may appear distorted. By adjusting TV System, you can set the DVD Receiver’s color system to match that of your DVDs and your TV.

Surround Sound Options 35

For proper Surround Sound, you must connect the speakers correctly and select the right sound source mode. See page 13 and your separate Quick-

Use Guide for details.

The Center and Surround speakers operate only when the DVD Home Cinema System is set to surround sound mode. The source you are playing (DVDs, Tuner, etc.) must be recorded or broadcast in Dolby Digital, DTS, or Dolby Pro Logic surround sound.

Stereo broadcasts or recordings will produce some surround sound effects when played in a surround mode. However, monaural (mono) sources will not produce any sound from the surround speakers.

Selecting Surround Sound

Press SURROUND repeatedly to select a surround sound or stereo mode. The availability of the various surround sound

modes depends on the number of speakers connected and the sound information available on the Disc, etc.

Surround Sound options are:

● Dolby Digital Surround - Also referred to as AC-3, Dolby 5.1,

or MPEG Multichannel - delivers a realistic, dynamic sound similar to theater and cinema. Many DVDs are recorded in Dolby Digital Surround.

All five speakers (front left, front right, center, surround left, and surround right) and the Subwoofer of the DVD Home Cinema System must be connected to the DVD Receiver.

● DTS (Digital Theater Systems) Surround - A cinema sur-

round sound format that offers superior digital audio performance. DTS offers more clarity and definition, especially for higher tones. The better sound quality is a result of the limited sound compression (3:1 instead of 11:1 for Dolby Digital) and 20-bit resolution.

● Dolby Pro Logic Surround - A specially encoded two-channel

analog format that produces sound through four speakers (Front Left, Center, Front Right, and a single/monaural Surround) when using a Dolby Pro Logic Decoder. Dolby Pro Logic Surround is compatible with two-channel (right and left) Stereos, but you will have sound only from two channels (the left and right).

● Matrix - A new surround system that delivers four-channel sur-

round sound (Front Left, Front Right, Surround Left, and Surround Right).

● VSS (Virtual Surround Sound) - The ProLogic, MPEG, or

Dolby Digital surround sound is processed by a ‘virtualizer’ DSP, adding surround sound when using only the Front (left/right) speakers.

● Stereo - All sound is reproduced and played through the Front

left/right speakers. This enables standard stereo reproduction.

Glossary 41

Analog: Sound that has not been turned into numbers. Analog sound varies, while digital sound has specific numerical values. Analog sound is available when you use the red and white audio jacks on your equipment. These jacks send audio through two channels, the left and right.

AUDIO OUT Jacks:

Jacks on the back of the DVD Receiver that send

audio to another system (TV, Stereo, etc.).

Bit Rate:

The amount of data used to hold a given length of music; measured in kilobits per seconds, or kbps. Or, the speed at which you record. Generally, the higher the bit rate, or the higher the recording speed, the better the sound quality. However, higher bit rates use more space on a Disc. For example, an MP3 music file recorded at 32 kbps will record slowly, use the least Disc space, and have the poorest sound quality. But, an MP3 music file recorded at 96 kbps will record quicker, use more Disc space, and have significantly better sound quality.

: Compact Disc (audio).

Coaxial jack:

Sends digital audio to a Stereo, allowing you to adjust the volume at the Stereo. The Stereo must have a coaxial in jack. This connection provides the 5.1 channel surround sound as heard in movie theaters.

Component Video Out Jacks

: Jacks on the back of the DVD Receiver

that send high-quality video to a TV that has Component Video In jacks.

Digital:

Sound that has been converted into numerical values. Digital sound is available when you use the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT COAXIAL or OPTICAL jacks. These jacks send audio through multiple channels, instead of just two channels as analog does.

Dolby Digital:

A surround sound system that provides 5.1 channel sound

as used in movie theaters.

DTS:

Digital Theater Systems. This is a surround sound system, but it is different from Dolby Digital. The formats were developed by different companies.

DVD

: Digital Video Disc.

Letterbox:

A TV aspect ratio setting (4:3). Displays the video in fullwidth, with black bars at the top and bottom of the TV screen. This format is similar to seeing a movie in a theater. If the Disc does not include a letterbox format , selecting Letterbox may have no effect. (For example, some DVDs are two-sided, with one side playing in Letterbox and the other side playing in a normal format.)

OPTICAL Jack:

Converts electrical signals into optical signals before sending the audio to the Stereo. Optical audio is not prone to external electrical influences and has less noise, which reduces adverse effects on external equipment. Be sure to keep the protective cap on the jack when the jack is not in use. This keeps dust out of the jack.

Pan & Scan:

A TV aspect ratio setting (4:3). Displays the video with fullheight picture, with one or both sides of the picture trimmed. Some movie companies refer to this as “reformatting the picture to fit your TV screen.”

Remote Control:

The unit that came with your DVD Receiver and

allows you to operate your DVD Receiver from a distance.

S-Video:

Produces a clear picture by sending separate signals for the luminance and the color. You can use S-Video only if your TV has an SVideo In jack.

VIDEO OUT Jack:

Jack on the back of the DVD Receiver that sends

video to a TV.

Widescreen:

A TV aspect ratio setting (16:9). Displays the video appro-

priately when you connect the DVD Receiver to a widescreen TV.
