Safety Warnings

Use of controls, adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

CAUTION-INVISIBLE LASER RADIATION WHEN OPEN

AND INTERLOCKS DEFEATED, AVOID EXPOSURE TO BEAM.

This symbol indicates that dangerous voltage which can cause electric shock is present inside this unit.

This symbol alerts you to important operating and maintenance instructions accompanying the unit.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not

Wiring the Main Power Supply Plug(UK Only)

IMPORTANT NOTICE

The main lead on this equipment is supplied with a moulded plug incorporating a fuse. The value of the fuse is indicated on the pin face of the plug and if it requires replacing, a fuse approved to BS1362 of the same rating must be used.

Never use the plug with the fuse cover removed. If the cover is detachable and a replacement is required, it must be of the same colour as the fuse fitted in the plug. Replacement covers are available from your dealer.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for the power points in your house or the cable is not long enough to reach a power point, you should obtain a suitable safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer for assistance.

However, if there is no alternative to cutting off the plug, remove the fuse and then safely dispose of the plug. Do not connec t the plug to a main socket as there is a risk of shock hazard from the bared flexible cord.

Never attempt to insert bare wires directly into a main socket. Aplug and fuse must be used at all times.

IMPORTANT

The wires in the main lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:–

BLUE = NEUTRAL BROWN = LIVE

As these colours may not correspond to the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:– The wire coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter N or coloured BLUE or BLACK. The wire coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter L or coloured BROWN or RED.

WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT EITHER WIRE TO THE EARTH TERMINAL WHICH IS MARKED WITH

THE LETTER E OR BY THE EARTH SYMBOL , OR COLOURED GREEN OR GREEN AND YELLOW.

Precautions

Ensure that the AC power supply in your house complies with the identification sticker located on the back of your player. Install your player horizontally, on a suitable base (furniture), with enough space around it for ventilation (3~4inches). Make sure the ventilation slots are not covered. Do not stack anything on top of the player. Do not place the player on amplifiers or other equipment which may become hot. Before moving the player, ensure the disc tray is empty. This player is designed for continuous use. Switching off the DVD player to the stand-by mode does not disconnect the electrical supply. In order to disconnect the player completely from the power supply, remove the main plug from the wall outlet, especially when left unused for a long period of time.

Protect the player from moisture(i.e. vases) , and excess heat(e.g.fireplace) or equipment creating strong magnetic or electric fields (i.e.speakers...). Disconnect the power cable from the AC supply if the player malfunctions. Your player is not intended for industrial use.

Use of this product is for personal use only. Condensation may occur if your player or disc have been stored in cold

temperatures. If transporting the player during the winter, wait approximately 2 hours

until the unit has reached room temperature before using.

During thunderstorms, disconnect AC main plug from the wall outlet. Voltage peaks due to lightning could damage the unit.

Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or other heat sources.

This could lead to overheating and malfunction of the unit.

The battery used with this product contain chemicals that are harmful to the environment. Do not dispose of batteries in the general household trash.

Connecting the Speakers

Before moving or installing the product, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power cord.

Front/RearSubwoofer Speakers

•

Place these speakers in front of your listening position, facing inwards (about 45°) toward you.

•

Place the speakers so that their tweeters will be at the same height as your ear.

•

Align the front face of the front speakers with the front face of the center speaker or place them slightly in front of the center speakers.

Center Speaker

•

It is best to install it at the same height as the front speakers.

•

You can also install it directly over or under the TV.

Position of the DVD Player

•

Place it on a stand or cabinet shelf, or under the TV stand.

Selecting the Listening Position

The listening position should be located about 2.5 to 3 times the distance of the TV's screen size away from the TV. Example: For 32" TVs 2~2.4m (6~8 feet)

For 55" TVs 3.5~4m (11~13 feet)

P.SCAN(Progressive Scan) Function

Unlike regular Interlace Scan, in which two fields of picture information alternate to create the entire picture (odd scan lines, then even scan lines), Progressive Scan uses one field of information (all lines displayed in one pass) to create a clear and detailed picture without visible scan lines.

Press and hold P.SCAN button on the remote controller for over 5 seconds in stop mode.

•

Pressing and holding the button for over 5 seconds will select "Progressive Scan" and "Interlace Scan" repetitively.

In interlaced-scan video, a frame consists of two interlaced fields (odd and even), where each field contains every other horizontal line in the frame. The odd field of alternating lines is displayed first, and then the even field is displayed to fill in the alternating gaps left by the odd field to form a single frame. One frame, displayed every 1/30th of a second, contains two interfaced fields, thus a total of 60 fields are displayed every 1/60th of a second. The interlaced scanning method is intended for capturing a still object.

Interlaced Scan (1 FRAME = 2 FIELDS)

The progressive scanning method scans one full frame of video consecutively down the screen, line by line. An entire image is drawn at one time, as opposed to the interlaced scanning process by which a video image is drawn in a series of passes. The progressive scanning method is desirable for dealing with moving objects.

Progressive Scan (FULL FRAME)

What is Progressive (or Non-Interlaced) Scanning?

•

This function works only on TVs equipped with component video inputs (Y, Pr, Pb) that support Progressive Video. (It does not work on TVs with conventional component inputs, i.e., non-progressive scan TVs.)

•

Depending on the brand and model of your TV, this function may not work.

Note

Press and hold NTSC/PAL button on the remote controller for over 5 seconds while the power is turned off.

•

"NTSC" or "PAL" will appear in the display. At this time, press the NTSC/PAL button shortly to select between "NTSC" and "PAL".

•

Each country has a different video format standard.

•

For normal playback, the video format of the disc must be the same as the video format of your TV.

•

RDS may not operate correctly if the station tuned is not transmitting RDS signal properly or if the signal strength is weak.

•

If searching finishes at once,“PS”,and “RT” will not appear on the display.

Using the RDS (Radio Data System) to receive FM stations

What information can RDS signals provide?

RDS allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with their regular program signals. For example,the stations send their station names,as well as information about what type of program they broadcast, such as sports or music,etc.

When tuned to an FM station which provides the RDS service,the RDS indicator lights up on the display.

•

2. PS NAME (Program Service Name) :

Indicates the name of broadcasting station

and is composed of 8 characters.

3. RT (Radio Text) :

Decodes the text broadcast by a station (if any) and is composed

of maximum 64 characters.

4. CT (Clock Time) :

Decodes the real time clock from the FM frequency.

• Some stations may not transmit PTY, RT or CT information therefore this may not be displayed in all cases.

5. TA (Traffic Announcement) :

When this symbol flashes it shows that the traffic

announcement is in progress.
