Connections & Setup

Things to Consider Before You Connect

Protect Against Power Surges

Connect all components before you plug any of their power cords into the wall outlet.
Turn off the TV/VCR/DVD and/or component before you connect or disconnect any cables.
Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded. Refer to the Important Safeguards sheet
packed with your TV/VCR/DVD.

Protect Components from Overheating

Dont block ventilation holes on any of the components. Arrange the components so that air can circulate freely.
Dont stack components.
When you place components in a stand, make sure you allow adequate ventilation.
If you connect an audio receiver or amplifier, place it on the top shelf so the heated air from it won’t
flow around other components.

Position Cables Properly to Avoid Audio Interference

Insert each cable firmly into the designated jack.
If you place components above the TV/VCR/DVD, route all cables down the side of the back of the
TV/VCR/DVD instead of straight down the middle.
If your antenna uses 300-ohm twin lead cables, do not coil the cables. Also, keep the twin lead cables away from audio/video cables.

Important Stand and Base Safety Information

Choose the location for your TV/VCR/DVD carefully. Place the TV/VCR/DVD on a stand or base that is of adequate size and strength to prevent the TV/VCR/DVD from being accidentally tipped over, pushed off, or pulled off. This could cause personal injury and/or damage to the TV/VCR/DVD. Refer to the Important Safeguards sheet packed with your TV/VCR/DVD.

Use Indirect Light

Dont place the TV/VCR/DVD where sunlight or room lighting will be directed toward the screen. Use soft or indirect lighting.

Cables Needed to Connect Components to Your TV/VCR/DVD
The pictures below show the cables needed for the connections represented in this book.
Notes: Audio/Video cables (A/V cables for short) are usually sold as a bundled set, but the connection picture in this book shows each cable separately for better visibility.
This TV/VCR/DVDs OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT jack fully complies with the international standard governing this type of jack (IEC958), and is designed for connection to a Dolby Digital (AC-3® or PCM) receiver or Dolby Digital (AC-3 or PCM) decoder. Older equipment, some of which is not fully compliant with IEC958, may not be compatible with the Dolby Digital bitstream. Such a connection using anything other than Dolby Digital AC-3 or PCM receiver or decoder could create a high noise level, causing damage to headphones or speakers.

Dolby Digital® and DTS
®
Both Dolby Digital and DTS are audio formats used to record 5.1-channel audio signals onto the digital track of film (while the film is being made). Both of these formats provide up to six separate channels: left, right, center, left rear, right rear, and common subwoofer.
The disc will play 5.1-channel sound only if youve connected a DTS or Dolby Digital receiver or decoder and if the original movie the disc was recorded from was encoded in the Dolby Digital or DTS format.
Please Read this Before Using the OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT Jack!
This TV/VCR/DVDs digital output jack is designed for a connection to a Dolby Digital or DTS receiver or decoder. There are two types of Digital Out jacks on this unit: optical and coaxial. Use the jack (and the corresponding cable) that matches the type of Digital Audio In jack your receiver or decoder has.
Older digital equipment may not be compatible with the Dolby Digital bitstream. Such a connection can create a high level of noise that may be harmful to your ears, and could damage headphones or speakers.
It is important to choose the correct digital output setting in the TV/VCR/DVDs audio menu, especially when you use the OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT jack (Chapter 5 has details).

Using a Disc Menu

Some discs have an on-screen menu that is separate from the DVD players menus. The disc menu might only contain a list of the titles and chapters or it may allow you to change features such as language and playback settings. Although the content and operation of disc menus vary from disc-to-disc, the following example gives you an idea of what to expect.
1. While the disc is playing, press DISC MENU on the remote. The disc menu appears.
An example of a disc menu. The menus on discs vary because the disc menu is created by the disc’s author.
2. Press the up and down arrow buttons to highlight the section of the disc menu you want to choose, and press OK on the remote. In the example on the left, Language has been selected.
Tip
Many discs skip the disc menu and start playing automatically. To access the disc menu when you’re playing a disc, press DISC MENU on the remote.
In this example, The Language setting is highlighted. To see the language options, press OK on the remote.
3. Press the up and down arrows to select a language, and press OK on the remote.
4. Press DISC MENU on the remote to resume playback.
Note: Any settings you change on the disc menu only override the settings in the DVD players menu temporarily. Default settings are set up in the DVD player’s menu system. To change the default settings, go to Chapter 5.
In this example, English is highlighted. Press OK on the remote to play the disc with English dialog.

Connections & Setup

Using the On-Screen Options Menu

The on-screen Options Menu contains many playback features. Press the DVD OPTIONS button on the remote while a disc is playing. Each feature is illustrated with an icon. Use the up or down arrow button on the remote to highlight the icon.
Note: Either up or down arrow button allows you to highlight an icon. Depending where the icon is located on-screen, one button might be quicker to access the icon than the other.
When an icon is highlighted, press OK on the remote. Use the up or down arrow button to display other options if they are available, and press the OK button to select the highlighted option.
To return to a previous screen, press the RETURN button on the remote.
Remember, you can only access the options menu when you are playing a disc. An option is only available if the disc was created with that particular feature (i.e., if you select the subtitle icon, you wont be able to change the subtitle unless the disc was created with subtitles).
The invalid symbol appears on the screen when you press a button that doesnt have any function. Press STOP or DVD OPTIONS on the remote to remove the screen.
Note: Chapter 4 has details about playing DVDs, Audio CDs, and MP3s.

Youll use these buttons when you program the remote to operate another component.
Important: The remote might not operate all models of all brands. The remote buttons also might operate differently for other components, especially when youre using their menu system.

Programming the Remote to Operate Other Components

The universal remote control can be programmed to operate most brands of remote controllable VCRs, satellite receivers and cable boxes. The remote is already programmed to operate most RCA, GE and Proscan VCRs and satellite receivers.
Note: The TV, VCR, and DVD buttons cannot be programmed.

Find Out If You Need to Program the Remote

To determine whether the universal remote needs to be programmed, turn a component ON, such as a VCR, point the remote at the VCR, and press the VCR2 button. Then press ONOFF or channel up or channel down to see if the VCR responds to the remote commands. If not, the remote needs to be programmed.

How to Program the Remote

There are two ways to program the remote control: automatic code search and direct entry. Instructions for both ways follow.
Tip
To stop the automatic code search without programming any components, press and hold CLEAR until the light on the remote turns off.
Using Automatic Code Search
1. Turn on the component you want the remote to operate (VCR or satellite receiver).
2. Press and hold the component button on the remote that corresponds to the component you want the remote to operate (VCR2 or SATCABLE). While you hold down the component button, press and hold ONOFF (when the light below the ONOFF button on the remote turns on, release both buttons).
(Steps continued on next page)
Chapter 2 27
Using the Remote Control
3. Press PLAY (the light on the remote starts flashing).
The remote is searching the first set of component codes (there are 20 sets of codes). If the component you want to operate doesnt turn off automatically after 5 seconds, press PLAY again (the light starts flashing again as the remote searches through the next set of codes).
Continue pressing PLAY until the component turns off.
Note: If the component doesn’t turn off after youve pressed the PLAY button 20 times, the component cant be programmed.
4. Press REVERSE, wait 2 seconds. Repeat this step until the component turns back on.
5. To finish, press and hold the STOP button until the light on the remote turns off.
Using Direct Entry
1. Turn on the component you want the remote to operate.
2. Look up the brand and code number(s) for the component on the code list on the next page.
3. Press and hold the component button (VCR2 or SATCABLE) that corresponds to the component you want the remote to operate.
4. Enter the code from the code list on the next page.
5. Release the component button.
6. Press ONOFF to see if the component responds to the remote commands. If it doesnt, try pressing the component button and then ONOFF again.
If you get no response, repeat these steps using the next code listed for your brand, until
the component responds to the remote commands.
If you try all the codes for your component brand and none work, try the automatic
code search method. If automatic code search doesnt find the code, the remote is not compatible with your component.

How to Use the Remote After Youve Programmed It

Once the remote has been programmed successfully, you are ready to use it to control your components. To operate the component:
1. Press the component button (VCR2 or SATCABLE) to set the remote to control the component.
2. Press ONOFF to turn the component ON or OFF.
3. Use the remote buttons that apply to that component.
Notes: If you keep pressing buttons and nothing happens, the remote is probably in the wrong mode. You must press the component button that matches the component you want to operate (i.e., if you want to operate the satellite receiver, press SATCABLE on the remote to put it in the satellite receiver mode).
The other remote buttons may operate differently for other components, especially when you’re using their menu systems.
Important
You must continue pressing the component button while you enter the code.

Parental Controls and V-Chip
The V-CHIP BLOCK feature allows you to program your TV so that children cant see certain programs or channels. By default, this feature is turned off.
TV GUIDELINES menu allows you to block TV programs based on age,
violence, sex, or other content you dont want your children to view.
MPAA menu allows you to block movies and TV programs according to the
MPAA (Motion Pictures Association of America) ratings system.
You block and unblock programs by turning the V-Chip feature on or off in the V-CHIP BLOCK menu, and using the password you create. Be sure to remember your password.

How V-Chip Works

When the V-Chip software is activated (or turned on), it reads a code that most broadcasters send with programs. That code tells the software the program’s age-based rating (TV-MA, TV-14, etc.) and content themes [(Violence (V), Adult Language (L), etc.)]. If you have blocked the rating and/or content themes that the program contains, a message appears and the channel wont be available for viewing.
Broadcasters arent required to provide content themes, so programs that aren’t tagged with a content theme can only be blocked if you block their age-based rating.
The TV age-based ratings and content themes and MPAA ratings are listed on the following pages.

New Rating Systems

The TV allows you to download additional new rating systems. If you watch a program with the new system, you can download the new V-Chip data for that program.

Tracking

Your TV/VCR has automatic tracking which removes streaks and noise” from the picture. Tracking has no effect when recording – only during playback. Automatic tracking is activated when you insert a tape or turn on the TV/VCR. TRACKING flashes on the TV screen during automatic tracking.
Occasionally you may need to manually adjust tracking, especially if the tape was recorded on a different VCR. Press the TRACK + or – on the remote (CH + or CH– on the front of the TV/ VCR) to remove streaks and noise. You can also use tracking when pausing a tape to reduce the noise of the still picture. When you use manual tracking, automatic tracking turns off.
The automatic tracking feature is restored the next time you insert a tape. If you want to turn automatic tracking back on right after youve used manual tracking, press the CH + and CH – buttons on the front of the TV/VCR at the same time.

Time Counter

The time counter shows the actual time used in recording or playing back a tape. The time counter helps locate the beginning or end of recorded events.
For example, if you record a 30–minute program at the beginning of a tape, rewind it, and then want to go to the end of the first program to start another recording:
0:00:00 10:00AM OCT.15
1. Press the INFO button to display the time counter.
2. Press the CLEAR button to reset the time counter to 0:00:00.
3. Press FORWARD to advance a tape until the time counter reads 0:30:00.
4. Press STOP. This is the approximate end of a 30-minute program (you may want to press PLAY to verify). When the tape is cued correctly, you can begin recording.
5. Press the INFO button to remove the time counter from the screen.

Audio Features

The audio you select affects both tape playback and recordings. Press the SOUND button on the remote to select the type of audio you want to listen to or record. You can use the AUDIO ADJUST menu in the next chapter to adjust the sound.

Care and Cleaning

Maintenance of TV/VCR/DVD Cabinet
CAUTION: Turn OFF your TV/VCR/DVD before cleaning.
You can clean the TV/VCR/DVD as required, using a soft lint-free cloth. Be sure to occasionally dust the ventilation slots in the cabinet to help assure adequate ventilation.
The TV/VCR/DVD screen may be cleaned with a soft, lint-free cloth as well. Take care not to scratch or mar the screen. If necessary, you may use a cloth dampened with warm water. Never use strong cleaning agents, such as ammonia-based cleaners or abrasive powder. These types of cleaners will damage the TV/VCR/DVD.
While cleaning, do not spray liquid directly on the screen or allow liquid to run down the screen and inside the TV/VCR/DVD. Also, avoid placing drinks or vases with water on top of the TV/VCR/DVD. This could increase the risk of fire or shock hazard or damage to the TV/VCR/DVD.
Caution: Using video games or any external accessory with fixed images for extended periods of time can cause them to be permanently imprinted on the picture tube (or projection TV picture tubes). ALSO, some network/program logos, phone numbers, etc. may cause similar damage. This damage is not covered by your warranty.
Formation of Condensation
Due to sharp changes in temperature and humidity, condensation may form if warm air comes in contact with any cold parts inside the DVD player.
When condensation forms inside the DVD player, the player may not operate correctly. If this occurs, leave the player at room temperature until the inside of the player becomes dry and operational.
If condensation forms on a disc, wipe the disc with a soft, dry cloth by moving the cloth from the center hole toward the outer edge.
Disc Cautions
Dont move the player while a disc is being played. The disc may get scratched or broken, and the players internal parts may be damaged.
Dont put any container filled with liquid or any small metal objects on the player.
Be careful not to put your hand into the disc tray.
Dont place anything other than the disc in the disc tray.
Be sure to remove the disc and turn off the player after use.

Dont affix labels or adhesive tape to label surfaces. Dont scratch or damage the label.
Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.

Cleaning Discs

Dirty discs can cause reduced video and audio performance. Always keep discs clean by wiping them gently with a soft cloth from the inner edge toward the outer perimeter.
If a disc becomes very dirty, wet a soft cloth in water, wring it out well. Wipe the dirt away gently, and remove any water drops with a dry cloth.
Do not use record-cleaning sprays or anti-static agents on discs. Also, never clean the discs with benzene, thinner, or other volatile solvents which may cause damage to the disc surface.
