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 connect 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. A plug and fuse must be used at all times.

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.

•

and the setup is finished. If Power Standby mode continues, repeat Steps 1 to

•

3 above.

Caution

When the wireless receiving module setting is complete, no audio signal is output from the Rear Speaker OUT ports on the back

•

of the main unit. The wireless receiving antenna is built into the wireless receiver module. Keep the unit away from water and moisture.

•

For optimal listening performance, make sure that the area around the wireless receiver module location is clear of any

•

obstructions. Sound will be heard from the wireless rear speakers in DVD 5.1-CH or Dolby Pro Logic II mode only.

•

In 2-CH mode, no sound will be heard from the wireless rear speakers.

•

Note

Place the wireless receiver module at the rear of the listening position. If the wireless receiver module is too close to the main

•

unit, some sound interruption may be heard due to interference. If you use a device such as a microwave oven, wireless LAN Card, Bluetooth equipment, or any other device that uses the same

•

frequency (2.4GHz) near the system, some sound interruption may be heard due to interference. The transmission distance of radio wave is about 33 feet, but may vary depending on your operating environment.

•

If a steel-concrete wall or metallic wall is between the main unit and the wireless receiver module, the system may not operate at all, because the radio wave cannot penetrate metal.

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 STOP button.

If playing a disc, press the STOP button twice so that “STOP”, appears on the display.

•

Press and hold P.SCAN button on the remote control for over 5 seconds.

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

•

alternately.

When you select P.SCAN, "P.SCAN" will appear on the display.

•

To set P.Scan mode for DivX discs, press the P.SCAN button on the remote control for more than

•

5 seconds with no disc in the unit (“'NO DISC" on the display), then load the DivX disc and play.

What is Progressive (or Non-Interlaced) Scanning?

Interlaced Scan (1 FRAME = 2 FIELDS)

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.

Note

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 capabilities of your TV, this function may not work.

•

Progressive Scan (FULL FRAME)

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.
