operation using the remote control.
Note:
This handling description is printed prior to product development.
When a part of the product specification must be changed to improve operability or other functions, priority is given to the product
specification itself. In such instances, the instruction manual may not entirely match all the functions of the actual product.
Therefore, the actual product and packaging, as well as the name and illustration, may differ from the manual.

SAFETY CERTIFICATION
This unit is made and tested to meet exacting safety
standards. It meets UL and FCC requirements and complies with safety performance standards of the U.S. Depart-
ment of Health and Human Services.
CAUTION - USE OF CONTROLS OR ADJUSTMENTS
OR PERFORMANCE OF PROCEDURES OTHER THAN
THOSE SPECIFIED HEREIN MAY RESULT IN HAZARDOUS RADIATION EXPOSURE.
THIS UNIT SHOULD NOT BE ADJUSTED OR REPAIRED
BY ANYONE EXCEPT PROPERLY QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.
FCC INFORMATION
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
CAUTION:
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Sanyo may
void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
Note:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for
help.
FOR SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERATION
• Do not damage the power cord.
• When not in use, disconnect the power cord from the outlet.
Grasp the plug, not the cord, when disconnecting the unit.
• If water should enter the unit, electrical shock or a malfunction
may result. Use in an area where there is low humidity and
little dust.
• Do not disassemble or alter the unit in any way.
• Do not use the unit in areas where extremes in temperature
occur (below 40°F (5°C) or exceeding 95°F (35°C)), or where
it may be exposed to direct sunlight.
• Because of the DVD video player’s extremely low noise and
wide dynamic range, there is a tendency to set the volume on
the amplifier higher than necessary. Doing so may produce
an excessively high output from the amplifier which can
cause damage to your speakers. Please be careful in this
regard.
• Sudden changes in the surrounding temperature can cause
dew to form on the optical pickup lens inside the unit. Under
this condition the unit may be unable to operate properly. If
this should occur, remove the disc and allow the unit to adjust
to the surrounding temperature.
• Do not pull the disc out while the disc is retracting into the
loading slot.
• Never put anything except a 5-inch (12cm) or 3-inch (8cm)
DVD (or CD) into the loading slot.
Foreign objects can damage the unit.
• Always push the disc gently into the loading slot until automatic
loading begins, then release the disc. Do not apply pressure
to the disc after automatic loading begins.
• When carrying the unit, be sure to remove a disc which
may be inside and turn the power off. Then unplug the
power cord from the AC outlet after 10 seconds. Carrying
the unit with a disc inside may damage the disc and/or
the unit.
• The unit is automatically set to the Screen Saver mode
after approximately 5 minutes have elapsed under the
stop or pause mode.
• After you press the q button on the unit to eject the disc, you
must remove the disc from the loading slot. If you do not
remove the disc within approximately 2 minutes, the disc is
automatically retracted into the loading slot. Some DVD video
discs may start playback automatically.
CAUTION:
The unit must be placed in a well ventilated area.
Do not place any object on the top of the unit.
Do not block ventilation holes.
The cabinet of the unit warms up when it is used for a long time,
but it is not a malfunction.

Surround right speaker
The center speaker and front right/left speakers have build-in
magnetic stray field compensation. They may be placed close to
a TV without affecting the color purity.
Place the front left/right speakers either side of the TV.
Place the center speaker directly above the TV.
• The front, center, and surround speakers should be placed at
approximately the same distance from the listening position.
The surround right/left speakers and subwoofer do not have
build-in magnetic stray field compensation.
Keep enough distance between the subwoofer and the TV so as
not to garble the TV screen.
Place the surround speakers either sides of the listening position,
or slightly to the rear, approximately 2 feet ~ 3 feet 3 inches (60
cm ~ 1 meter) higher than ear level.

• When you connect the unit to your TV, be sure to turn off the
power and disconnect both units from the wall outlet until all
the connections have been made.
• Do not connect the unit to a VCR directly. The playback
picture will be distorted because DVD video discs are copy

Progressive Scanning
While interlaced scanning produces one frame of video in two
fields, progressive scanning creates one frame in one field.
Conventional interlaced scanning constitutes one second with
30 frames (60 fields), but progressive scanning constitutes it with
60 frames from scratch. Progressive scanning can reproduce
sharper picture with high resolution for still image or other picture
containing long texts or horizontal lines.
This model has compliance with 525p (progressive) system.

The FM indoor antenna lead wire is sufficient to receive most
local FM broadcasts and should be connected to the rear FM
75Ω terminal. Extend the antenna lead wire as straight as possible
and, while listening to the sound from the system, secure it in a
position where the best FM reception is found.
In fringe areas, or where reception is distorted or noisy, an FM
outdoor antenna (not supplied) should be connected instead of
the FM indoor antenna lead wire. The terminals will accept 75ohm coaxial cable.

Power Supply
Connect the power cord to a 120VAC 60Hz outlet. This unit is
equipped with a polarized plug. If you have difficulty inserting the
plug, turn it over and reinsert it. If the unit will not be used for a
long time, disconnect the AC plug from the AC outlet.
Notes:
• Before plugging the power cord into an AC outlet, make sure
that all the connections have been made.
• The unit is not disconnected from the AC power unless the
power cord is unplugged from the AC outlet.
Unwind the antenna wires, then
connect the plug to the AM LOOP

terminal. If you have difficulty inserting
the plug, turn it over and reinsert it.
Place the loop antenna in a position
which yields the best AM reception, or

Note:
To minimize noise...
• Keep the speaker wires, power cord and all other system
connection cables away from the loop antenna.
• Do not place the antenna close to a TV or speaker.
Note to CATV system installer:
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s
attention to Section 820-40 of the NEC which provides guidelines
for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable
ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the
building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
