Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion—and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.
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.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.
We Want You Listening For A Lifetime
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise. This list of sound levels is included for your protection.
Decibel
Level Example
30 Quiet library, soft whispers
40 Living room, refrigerator, bedroom away from traffic
50 Light traffic, normal conversation, quiet office
60 Air conditioner at 20 feet, sewing machine
70 Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant
80 Average city traffic, garbage disposals, alarm clock at two feet.
THE FOLLOWING NOISES CAN BE DANGEROUS UNDER CONSTANT EXPOSURE
90 Subway, motorcycle, truck traffic, lawn mower
100 Garbage truck, chain saw, pneumatic drill
120 Rock band concert in front of speakers, thunderclap
140 Gunshot blast, jet plane
180 Rocket launching pad

7 Disc Operation
With some DVDs, depending on the intentions of the disc’s producer, certain operations may be prohibited. Also, with discs enabling menu operation and two-way operation during playback, the way titles and chapters are organized may prevent certain operations such as Repeat play.
If this happens with this player, the prohibited mark “ ” is displayed. The prohibited mark “ ” may not appear on some discs.
13
Disc Organization
DVD
On DVD-Video discs, the contents are divided into titles which are in turn divided into chapters.
With video material, a single work (movie etc.) usually corresponds to a single title, with different scenes corresponding to separate chapters. With karaoke discs, one song corresponds to one title.
However, some discs are not organized like this, so bear this in mind when using the Search function.

Display the of Operation
You can select a desired mode for enlarging a 4:3 picture to a 16:9 one.
• Select the desired mode in the following order:
Full (FULL) =Just (JUST) =Cinema (CINEMA) =Zoom (ZOOM) =Normal (NORMAL)
Full (FULL)
A 4:3 picture is enlarged in the horizontal direction only, enabling you to enjoy a 4:3 TV picture (normal picture) without any omissions.
Just (JUST)
The picture is enlarged slightly at the center and the amount of enlargement increases horizontally to the ends, enabling you to enjoy a 4:3 picture without sensing any disparity even on a wide screen.
Cinema (CINEMA)
A picture is enlarged by the same proportion as FULL or ZOOM in the horizontal direction and by an intermediate proportion between FULL and ZOOM in the vertical direction; ideal for a cinema-sized picture (wide-screen picture) where captions lie outside.
Zoom (ZOOM)
A 4:3 picture is enlarged in the same proportion both vertically and horizontally; ideal for a cinema-sized picture (wide-screen picture).
Normal (NORMAL)
A 4:3 picture is displayed as it is, giving you no sense of disparity since its proportions are the same as that of the normal picture.
Note:
•Different settings can be memorized for the AV, VCR and RGB video. In addition, different settings can also be memorized for a component (AV) connected to the AV-BUS input.
•The Wide Mode used for menu setting is switched to Full (FULL). The Wide Mode will return when the menu setting is deleted.
•When video is viewed in a wide mode that dose not match its original aspect ratio, it may appear differently.
•Remember that using the wide mode feature of this system for commercial or public viewing purpose may constitute an infringement on the author’s rights protected by the Copyright Law.
•Video will appear roughened when viewed in CINEMA or ZOOM mode.
