Wiring the Main Power Supply Plug (UK Only)
IMPORTANT NOTICE
The mains 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 mains socket as there is a risk of shock hazard from the bared flexible cord.
Never attempt to insert bare wires directly into a mains socket. A plug and fuse must be used at all times.
IMPORTANT
The wires in the mains 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.

CONNECTING THE SPEAKERS
Position of Digital Home Cinema
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" TV's 2~2.4m
For 55" TV's 3.5~4m
Front Speakers ei
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 centre speaker or place them slightly
in front of the centre speakers.
Subwoofer g
The position of the subwoofer is not so critical. Place it anywhere you like.
Centre Speaker f
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.
Rear Speakers
Place these speakers behind your listening position. If there isn't enough room, place these speakers
such that they face each other. Place them about 60 to 90cm from your ear, facing slightly downward.
* Unlike the front and centre speakers, the rear speakers are used to handle mainly sound effects and
sound will not come from them all the time.

Do not let children play with or near the speakers. They could get hurt if a speaker falls.
`
When connecting the speaker wires to the speakers, make sure that the polarity (+/–) is correct.
`
Keep the subwoofer speaker out of reach of children so as to prevent children from inserting their hands or
`
other objects into the duct (hole) of the subwoofer speaker.
Do not hang the subwoofer on the wall through the duct (hole).
`
If you place a speaker near your TV set, screen colour may be distorted because of the magnetic field

CONNECTING THE OPTIONAL WIRELESS RECEIVING AMPLIFIER (Con.)
Place the wireless receiver module at the rear of the listening position. If the wireless receiver module is too
`
M
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 or any other device that uses the same frequency
`
(5.8GHz) near the system, some sound interruption may be heard due to interference.
The transmission distance of a radio wave is about 10m, 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.
If the main unit doesn't make wireless connection, the system needs ID Setting between main unit and
`
wireless receiver module. With the main unit turned off, press the remote control's number button buttons
"0""1""3""5" and the main unit will turn on. With the wireless receiver module turned on, press "ID
SET" button on the back of the unit for 5 seconds.
Do not insert any other card except the TX card dedicated to the product. The product might be damaged or
`
J
the card may not be removed easily.
Do not insert the TX card upside down or in the reverse direction.
`
Insert the TX card when the Home Cinema System is turned off. Inserting the card when it is turned on may
`
cause a problem.
If the TX Card is inserted, sound is not output from the Rear Speaker connectors on 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.
If no sound is heard from the wireless rear speakers, switch the mode to DVD 5.1 channel or Dolby ProLogic II.
`
In 2-CH mode, no sound will be heard from the wireless rear speakers.

CONNECTING THE VIDEO OUT TO YOUR TV
HDMI Auto Detection Function
The player's video output will automatically change to HDMI mode when connecting an HDMI cable
while power is on.
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)
~
HDMI is an interface that enables the digital transmission of video and audio data with just a single
connector. Using HDMI, the DVD Home Cinema transmits a digital video and audio signals and
displays a vivid picture.
HDMI connection description
~
HDMI connector - Supports video and digital audio data.
- HDMI outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV.
- If your TV does not support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), random noise
appears on the screen.
Why does Samsung use HDMI?
~
Analogue TV's require an analogue video/audio signal. However, when playing a DVD, the data
transmitted to a TV is digital. Therefore either a digital-to-analogue converter (in the DVD Home
Cinema) or an analogue-to-digital converter (in the TV) is required. During this conversion, the picture
quality is degraded due to noise and signal loss. HDMI technology is superior because it requires no
D/A conversion and is a pure digital signal from the player to your TV.
What is the HDCP?
~
HDCP (High-band width Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting DVD content outputted
via HDMI from being copied. It provides a secure digital link between a video source (PC, DVD. etc)
and a display device (TV, projector. etc). Content is encrypted at the source device to prevent
unauthorized copies from being made.
What is Anynet+?
~
Anynet+ is a convenient function that offers linked operation of this unit through Samsung TV's with the Anynet+ feature.
- If your Samsung TV has an ' logo, then it supports the Anynet+ function.
- If you turn on the player and insert a disc, the player will start playing the disc, and the TV will turn on
automatically and switch to HDMI mode.
- If you turn on the player and press the Play button with a disc already inserted, the TV will
immediately turn on and switch to HDMI mode.
(Con.)
BD WISE (Samsung products only)
You can select to use the BD Wise menu only if the Samsung home cinema is connected to a Samsung TV that
supports BD Wise using an HDMI cable.
What is BD Wise?
~
BD Wise automatically adjusts BD Wise-compliant Samsung products to the
optimal settings between them.
This feature is enabled only if BD Wise-compliant Samsung products are
connected to each other using an HDMI cable.
To use BD Wise
~
1. Use an HDMI cable to connect the Samsung home cinema to a BD Wise-compliant Samsung TV.
2. Set each BD Wise menu of the Samsung home cinema and the Samsung TV to On, respectively.
- This will optimize the picture quality according to the content (In the disc, DVD, etc) that you want to play.
-
This will also optimize the picture quality between the home cinema and your BD Wise-compliant Samsung TV.
If you want to change the resolution in BD Wise mode, you must set BD mode to Off in advance.
