Care and safety information
Avoid high temperatures, moisture, water and dust.
– Do not expose the system, batteries or discs to humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat (caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight.) Always keep the disc tray closed to avoid dust on the lens.
Avoid condensation problem
– The lens may cloud over when the player is suddenly moved from cold to warm surroundings, making it impossible to play a disc. Leave the player in the warm environment until the moisture evaporates.
Do not block the vents
– Do not operate the DVD system in an enclosed cabinet, allow about 10 cm (4 inches) of free space all around the player for adequate ventilation.
Care of disc
–To clean a CD, wipe it in a straight line from the center towards the edge using a soft, lint-free cloth. A cleaning agent may damage the disc. –Write only on the printed side of a CDR(W) and only with a soft felt-tipped pen. – Handle the disc by its edge, do not touch the surface.
Care of cabinet
– Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use a solution containing alcohol, spirits, ammonia or abrasives.
Step 1: Placing the speakers and subwoofers
For best possible surround sound, all the speakers (except subwoofer) should be placed at the same distance from the listening position.
1 Place the front left and right speakers at equal distances
from the TV and at an angle of approximately 45 degrees from the listening position.
2 Place the centre speaker above the TV or the DVD system
so the centre channel’s sound is localized.
3 Place the surround speakers at normal listening ear level
facing each other.
4 Place the subwoofer on the floor near the TV.
Notes:
–To avoid magnetic interference, do not position the front speakers too close to your TV. – Allow adequate ventilation around the DVD system.
English
Finding a suitable location
– Place the player on a flat, hard, and stable surface.

IMPORTANT! –For proper surround sound, make sure you have followed the “Connections” and “Preparations” procedures fully. – The center and surround speakers only operate when the system is set to surround sound mode and the source material being played is recorded or broadcast in Dolby Digital Surround, DTS, Dolby Pro Logic or ProLogic II surround sound. – Stereo broadcasts or recordings will produce some surround channel effects when played in a surround mode. However, monaural sources will not produce any sound from the surround speaker.
Press SURROUND to select surround or stereo mode.The availability of the various surround sound modes
depend on the number of speakers used and the incoming sound information available on the disc. The available surround modes are shown below.
Dolby Digital Surround
Dolby Digital (also known as AC-3 or Dolby 5.1) and MPEG Multichannel delivered a realistic and dynamic sound similar to theater and cinema. It requires connection of all five speakers (front left/right, centre, surround left/right) and subwoofer for correct Dolby Digital Surround sound reproduction. Each channel plays its own unique role in providing the right sound. Front left, center and front right join two surround speakers to reproduce high, mid and bass frequencies in five full-range channels of surround. Bass rumble, explosions and low frequency effects you feel are delivered through the subwoofer. A large number of DVD discs are recorded in Dolby Digital Surround.
Movie mode
The movie mode is for use with stereo television shows. The result is enhanced soundfield directionality that approaches the quality of discrete 5.1-channel sound.
Music mode
The Music mode is for use with any stereo music recordings, and provides a wide and deep sound space.
VSS (Virtual Surround Sound)
The Prologic MPEG or Dolby Digital surround channel is processed by a ‘virtualizer’ DSP to add surround effect from just the two front speakers.
Stereo
All sound is reproduced and played through the front left and right speakers. This enables standard stereo reproduction.
Selecting the digital sound effect
The digital sound effects allows you to select from various pre-set modes that control the frequency bands of sound to optimize certain musical styles. It greatly enhances the excitement and enjoyment of your favorite music.
Press SOUND repeatedly to select the available sound effect.
When playing a DVD/VCD, select :
– CONCERT, DRAMA, ACTION, SCI-FI
When playing a CD/MP3 or in Tuner or AUX-ANA mode, select:
– JAZZ, ROCK, DIGITAL, CLASSIC
DTS Surround
The DTS Surround is a cinema surround sound format that offers superior digital audio performance. DTS offer s 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 the 20-bit resolution.
Dolby Pro Logic Surround
The Dolby Pro Logic Surround system is a specially encoded two channels analog format that will produce sound through four speaker channels (front left, center , front right, monaural surround) when a Dolby Pro Logic Decoder is used. It is also compatible with stereo systems but the user will only have two channels (Front Left & Right) of sound.
Dolby Pro Logic II Surround
Dolby Pro Logic II Surround creates five full bandwidth output channels from two-channel sources. This is done using an advanced, high purity matrix surround decoder that extracts the spatial properties of the original recording without adding any new sounds or tonal colorations.
