SPECIAL NOTE FOR USERS IN THE U.K.

The mains lead of this product is fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded) plug incorporating a 3A fuse. Should the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved BS 1362 fuse marked or and of the same rating as above, which is also indicated on the pin face of the plug, must be used. Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted. In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compatible with the plug supplied, cut-off the mains plug and fit an appropriate type. DANGER: The fuse from the cut-off plug should be removed and the cut-off plug destroyed

To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below: IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this product may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: —The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked N or

coloured black.

—The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked L or

coloured red. Ensure that neither the brown nor the blue wire is connected to the earth terminal in your three-pin plug. Before replacing the plug cover make sure that: —If the new fitted plug contains a fuse, its value is the same as that removed from the cut-off plug. —The lead grip is clamped over the sheath of the mains lead and not simply over the lead wires. IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT, CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

immediately and disposed of in a safe manner. Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted elsewhere into a 13A socket outlet, as a serious electric shock may occur.

Using the Remote Control for TV Operation

The provided remote control can operate the basic functions of your television. In addition to most Sharp televisions, other manufacturers’ televisions listed below can also be controlled by setting the remote control to the corresponding TV brand. The remote control’s default brand is “SHARP”, which enables control of most Sharp televisions. When you replace the batteries in the remote control, the control’s TV brand setting will be reset to SHARP.

Setting the TV brand

1 Turn on your TV. 2 From the table below select the button which corresponds with the brand of your TV. Simultaneously press

both this button and the OPERATE button (TV control) on the remote control facing toward TV. Hold them down for about five seconds. When setting is complete, the remote control will send a “power off” signal to the TV, and it should turn off.

• If the TV does not turn off in step 2, repeat the step 2 setting procedure and select the button for a different brand.

• Set the power switch on the player and equipment to be connected to OFF before connecting.

• Read through the Operation manual for the equipment to be connected.

• Be sure that the colours of the connectors and plugs match up when connecting the lead.

The connections described below are for video connection to the S-VIDEO OUT, VIDEO OUT or LINE1 OUT (21-pin Euro-SCART) connector.

Connecting to a Stereo TV Set

1 TV set (sold separately) 2 DVD player 3 Video/audio lead (supplied) 4 S-video lead (supplied) 5 To audio input connectors (red, white) 6 To video input connector (yellow) 7 To S-video input connector 8 AC power lead 9 To power outlet (AC 220-240V, 50/60Hz)

• For LINE1 OUT connection, see page 14.

• “Adaptive digital gamma” is the digital function for high picture quality which keeps the bright part of picture as it is during AUTO mode, and which automatically detects and compensates for dark and difficult-to-see parts, making them brighter and easy to see, richly reproducing the original high picture quality provided by DVD. Also, in the ON mode, you can set this function to the desired level manually.

• Digital gamma is a digital image quality enhancement function that gives a richer image by brightening the darker and more obscure portions of the image without altering the brightness of the brighter portions, thereby making the entire image easier to see.

• Four digital gamma settings are available to allow for differences in the images played and in the brightness of the room.

• When you are watching a recording with frequent dark scenes, such as a film or concert, or when you are watching a recording in bright room, this feature makes the darker scenes easier to see and gives the impression of greater depth in the image.

Definition of Terms

Angle: Recorded onto some DVD discs are scenes which have been simultaneously shot from

a number of different angles (the same scene is shot from the front, from the left side, from the right side, etc,). With such discs, the ANGLE button can be used to view the scene from different angles.

Chapter Number: These numbers are recorded on DVD discs. A title is subdivided into many sections,

each of which is numbered, and specific parts of video presentations can be searched quickly using these numbers.

DTS: This is a digital sound system developed by Digital Theater Systems for use in cinemas.

This system uses 6 audio channels and provides accurate sound field positioning and realistic acoustics. (By connecting a DTS Digital Surround decoder, you can also listen to DTS Digital Surround sound.)

DVD: This refers to a high-density optical disc on which high-quality pictures and sound have

been recorded by means of digital signals. Incorporating a new video compression technology (MPEG II) and high-density recording technology, DVD enables esthetically pleasing full-motion video to be recorded over long periods of time (for instance, a whole movie can be recorded). DVD has a structure consisting of two 0.6 mm thin discs which are adhered to each other. Due to higher data density dual layer and possibility of double sided operation, the DVD disc has a much greater capacity than the single sided 1.2 mm thick disc (CD). Since the two thin discs are adhered to each other, there is the potential to achieve double-sided play sometime in the future for even longer duration play.

Linear PCM Sound: Linear PCM is a signal recording format used for audio CDs.

The sound on audio CDs is recorded at 44.1kHz with 16 bits. (On DVD discs, sound is recorded at between 48kHz with 16 bits and 96kHz with 24 bits.)

Playback Control (PBC): This is recorded on a video CD (version 2.0). The scenes or information to

be viewed (or listened to) can be selected interactively with the TV monitor by looking at the menu shown on the TV monitor.

Subtitles: These are the printed lines appearing at the bottom of the screen which translate or

transcribe the dialogue. They are recorded on DVD discs.

Time Number: This indicates the play time which has elapsed from the start of a disc or a title. It can

be used to find a specific scene quickly. (It may not work with some discs.)

Title Number: These numbers are recorded on DVD discs. When a disc contains two or more movies,

these movies are numbered as title 1, title 2, etc.

Track Number: These numbers are assigned to the tracks which are recorded on video CDs and audio

CDs. They enable specific tracks to be located quickly.

Video CD (VCD): This contains recordings of pictures and sound whose quality is on a par with that of

videotape. This player also supports video CDs with playback control (version 2.0).
