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.

PREPARATION
Caution
Remove the battery cover in the direction of the arrow.
1
Insert two 1.5V AAA batteries, paying attention to the correct polarities (+ and –).
2
Replace the battery cover.
3
Follow these precautions to avoid leaking or cracking cells:
Place batteries in the remote control so they match the polarity:(+) to (+)and ()to (–).
Use the correct type of batteries.Batteries that look similar may differ in voltage.
Always replace both batteries at the same time.
Do not expose batteries to heat or flame.
Insert Remote Batteries
Installation in a place near heating apparatus, under direct lay of light or with high humidity may cause
performance degradation of the speaker.
Do not install on the wall or on a high place of pole or other unstable place to prevent any safety accident
caused by falling of the speaker.
Do not take the speaker near from TV or computer monitor.
The speaker near the TV or computer monitor may influence the quality of the screen display.
9
Directions in Installing Speaker
The loudspeaker connector terminals are located on the rear of the system.
There are two terminals on the system:
left speaker (marked L) right speaker (marked R)
To achieve the correct sound quality,insert those speaker connector cables to the speaker connector terminals of the system.

Connecting the Speakers

Before moving or installing the product, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power cord.
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.
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 (6~8feet)
For 55" TVs 3.5~4m (11~13feet)

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
By default, the video format is set to "PAL".
Each time the button is pressed, the video format switches 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.
Turn off the main unit and then press NTSC/PAL on the Remote Control or REC/PAUSE on the Main Unit.

Handling and Storing Discs

Cautions on Handling and Storing Discs

Small scratches on the disc may reduce sound and picture quality or cause breaks in playback. Be especially careful not to scratch discs when handling them.
Condensation may form if warm air comes into contact with cold parts inside the player. When condensation forms inside the player, the player may not operate correctly. If this occurs, remove the disc and let the player stand for 1 or 2 hours with the power on.
Note
Check that the tape in the cassette is sufficiently taut.
To prevent erasing a cassette that you wish to keep, remove the safety tab on the upper edge of the cassette. To record a cassette, where the tab has been broken, simply cover the opening with adhesive
tape.
When you have finished playing a cassette, always put it back in its case.
Store your cassettes in a clean place, out of direct sunlight, where they will not be exposed to high temperatures.
Avoid using 120-minute cassettes as they place unnecessary strain on the tape mechanism.
