Precautions

On power sources

AC power cord must be changed only at the qualifi ed service shop.

On placement

• Place the system in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat b uil d- up in the system.

• At high volume, over long periods of time, the cabinet becomes hot to the touch. This is not a malfunction. However, touching the cabinet should be avoided. Do not place the unit in a confined space where ventilation is poor as this may cause overheating.

• Do not block the ventilation slots by putting anything on the system. The system is equipped with a high power amplifier. If the ventila ti on slots on the top surface are blocked, the unit can over heat and malfunction.

• Do not place the system on a soft surface such as a rug that might block the ventilati on hole s on the bottom.

• Do not place the system in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to dire ct sunlight, excessive dust, or mechanical shock.

On operation

• If the system is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense on the lenses inside the system. Should this occur, the system may not opera te pr ope r ly. In this case, remove the dis c and leave the syst em turned on for about half an hour until the moisture evaporates.

• When you move the system, take out any discs. If you don’t, the disc may be damaged.

• For power saving purposes, the system can be completely turned off by the "/1 button on the system. Though the LED remains lit for a while, the system is completely off.

On adjusting volume

Do not turn up the volume while listening to a section with very low level inputs or no audio signa ls. If you do, the speakers may be damaged when a peak level section is suddenly played.

On cleaning

Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mi ld detergent solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring pow der or solvent such as alcohol or benzine. If you have any questions or problems concerning your system, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

On cleaning discs

Do not use a commercially available CD/DVD cleaning disc. It may cause a malfunc ti o n .

On your TV’s colour

If the speakers should cause the TV screen to have colour irregularity, turn off the TV at once then turn it on after 15 to 30 minutes. If colour irregularity should persist, place the speakers farther away from the set.

The nameplate is located on th e rear of the unit.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Caution: This system is capable of holdi ng a st ill video image or on-screen display ima ge on your television screen indefinitely. If you leave the still video image or on-screen display ima ge displayed on your TV for an extended period of time you risk permanent damage to your television screen. Projection televisions are especially susceptible to this.

On moving the system

Before you move the system, remove the disc and turn off the power. The STANDBY indicator ligh ts up in red and “STBY” blinks on and off in the front panel display momentarily and then stays lit. You can then unplug the mains lead. Do not unplug while “STBY” is blinking on and off.

To avoid short -circuiting th e speakers

Short-circuiting of the speakers may damage the system. To prevent this, be sure to follow these precautions when connecting the speakers. Make sure the bare wire of each speaker cord does not touch another speaker jack or the bare wire of another speaker cord.

Examples of poor conditions of the speaker cord

Stripped speaker cord is touching another speaker terminal.

After connecting all the components , spea kers, a nd AC power cord, o utput a t est to ne to check th at all the speakers are connected correctly. For details on outputting a test tone, see page 64. If no sound is heard from a speak er while out putting a t est tone, o r a test tone is output from a spe aker other than the one curren tly disp laye d in the f ront pa nel disp lay, the spe aker may be shor t-cir cuited. If this happens, check t he speaker connectio n again.

Note

Be sure to match the speaker cord to the appropriate terminal on the components: 3 to 3, and # to #. If the cords are reversed, the sound and will lack bass a nd ma y be distorted.

Stripped cords are touching each other due to excessive removal of insulation.

Speaker Setup

For the best possible surround sound, all the speakers other than the subwoofer should be the same distance from the listening position (A). However, this system allows you to place the center speaker up to 1.6 metres a) clos er (B) and the surround speakers up to 4.6 me tr es b) closer (C) to the listening position. The front speakers can be placed from 1.0 to

7.0 metres c) (A) from the listening position.

About magnetically shielded speakers (to prevent colour irregularity occurring on the TV screen)

The subwoofer in this system is magnetically shielded to prevent magnetic leakage. However, some leakage may occur, as a high-strength magnet is employed. If the subwoof er is used with a CRT-based TV or projector, install the subwoofer at least 0.3 metre (1 .0 foot) from the TV set. If it is installed too close, colour irregularity ma y occur on the screen. If colour irregularity occurs, tu rn off the TV set once, th en turn it on after 15 to 30 minutes. If colour irregularity occurs again, place the subwoofer farther away from the TV set. If colour irregularity still occurs after performing the above, make sure that no magnetic object is placed near the subwoofer. Colour irregularity may occur as a result of interaction between the subwoofer and the magnetic object. Examples of possib le sources of magnetic interference include: magnetic latches on a TV stand, etc., healthcare devices, toy s, et c.

Specifying the speaker parameters

Note

Do not place the center and surround speakers farther away from the listen ing position than the front speakers.

To obtain the best possible surround sound, first specify the distance of the speakers fr om your listening position, then s et the level and balance. Use the test tone to adju st th e sp eaker l evel and balance to the same l evel. Select “SPEAKER SET U P” i n t he setup display. For details, see “Settin g fo r the Speakers” (page 63).

Glossary

Album

Section of a music piece or an image on a data CD containing MP3 audio tracks or JPEG file s.

Chapter

Subdivision of a title on a DVD. A title is composed of several chapters.

Dolby Digital

This sound format for movie theatres is more advanced than Dolby Surround Pro Logic. In this format, the surround speakers output stereo sound with an expa nded frequency range and a subwoofer ch annel for deep bass is independently provided. This format is also called “5.1” because the subwoofer channel is counted as 0.1 channel (since it functions only when a deep bass effect is needed). All six channels in this format are recorded separately to realize superior channel separation. Furthermore, si nce all the sign als are process ed digitally, less si gnal degradation oc curs.

Dolby Surround Pro Logic

As one method of decoding Dolby Surr ound, Dolby Surro und Pro Logic produces four channels from two- channel sound. Comp ar ed with the former Dolby Surround system, Dolby Surround Pro Log i c reproduces left-to- right panning more naturally and localizes sounds more precisely. To take full advantage of Dolby Surround Pro Logic, you should have one pair of surround speakers and a center speaker. The surround speakers output monaural sound.

Dolby Pro Logic II

Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-bandwi dt h output ch annel s f rom t wo- channe l so urc es. This is done using an ad vanced, high-p urity matrix surround deco der that extracts the sp at ial properties of the original recording withou t adding any new sounds or tonal colorations.

x Movie mode

The Movie mode is for use with stereo televi sion shows and all programs encoded in Do lby Surround. The result is enhanced soundfield directionality that approaches the quality of discrete 5.1-channel sound.

Additional Information

Page 70

x Music mode

The Music mode is for use with any stereo music recordings, and provides a wide and deep sound space.

DTS

Digital audio compression technology that the Digital Theater Syst em s , Inc. developed. This technology conforms to 5.1-channel surround. The rear channel is st ereo and there is disc rete subwoofer channel in this format. DTS provides the same 5.1 discret e channels of high qualit y digital audio. The good channel separation is realized be cause the a ll ch annel data i s r ecorde d discrete and processed in digital.

DVD

A disc that contains up to 8 hours of moving pictures ev en though it s diameter is t h e same as a CD. The data capacity of a single-layer and singlesided DVD, at 4.7 GB (Giga Byte), is 7 times that of a CD. Furthermore, the data capacity of a dual-layer and single-sided DVD is 8.5 GB, a single-layer and double-sid ed DVD 9.4 GB, and a dual-layer and double-sided DVD 17 GB. The picture data uses the MPEG 2 format, one of the worldwide standards of dig ita l co mpr es sion technology. The picture data is compressed to about 1/40 of its original size. The DVD also uses the variable rate coding technology that changes the data to be allocated according to the status of the picture. The audio data is re corded in Dolby Digi ta l as well as in PCM, allowing you to enjoy more realistic audio presence. Furthermore, various advanced functions such as the multi-angle, multilingual, and Parental Control functions are provided with the DVD.

File

Section of a picture on a data CD containing JPEG image files.

Film based software, Video based software

DVDs can be classified as Film based or Video based software. Film based DVDs contain the same images (24 frames per second) that are shown at movie theatres. Video based DVDs, such as television dramas or sit-coms, displays images at 30 frames (or 60 fields) per second.

Interlace format

Interlace format shows every othe r line of an image as a single “field” and is the standa rd method for displaying images on television. The even number fiel d shows the even numbered lines of an image, and the odd numbered field shows the odd num bered lines of an image .

Multi-angle function

Various angles, or vi ewpoints of the video camera, for a scene are recorded on some DVDs.

Multilingual function

Several languages for the sound or subtitles in a picture are recorded on some DVDs.

Parental Control

A function of the DVD to limit playback of the disc by the age of the users according to the limitation level in each country. The limitation varies from disc to disc; when it is activated, playback is comple te ly prohibited, violent scenes are skipped or replaced with other scenes and so on.

Playback Control (PBC)

Signals encoded on VIDEO CDs (Ver si on 2.0) to control playba ck. By using menu screens recorded on VIDEO CDs with PBC functions, you can enjoy playing simple interactive programs, programs with search functions, and so on.

Progressive format

Compared to the Interlace format that alternately shows every other line of an image (field) to create one frame, the Progressive fo rm at shows the entire image at once as a single fram e. This means that while the Interlace format can show 30 frames (60 fields) in one second, t he Progressive for mat can show 60 frames in one second. The overall picture quality increases and still images, text, and horizontal lines appear sharper. This system is compati ble with the 4 80 progressive fo r m at.

Page 71

Region Code

This system is used to protect copyrights. A region number is allocated o n each DVD system or DVD disc accordi ng to the sal es region . Each region code is shown on the system as well as on the disc packaging. Th e system can play the discs that match its region code. The system can also play discs with the “ ” mark. Even when

ALL

the region code is not shown on the DVD, the region limit may still be activated.

Scene

On a VIDEO CD with PBC (playback control) functions, the menu screens, moving pictures and still pictures are div ided into s ections called “scenes.”

Super Audio CD

This audio format is ba sed upon the current audio CD standard s but includes a greater amount of information which provides higher quality sound. There ar e three types of discs: single layer, double layer and hybrid discs. The hybrid disc contains both standard audio CD and Super Audio CD i nformation.

Title

The longest se ction of a pictur e or music feature on a DVD, movie, etc., in video software, or the entire album in audio software.

Track

Section of a picture or a music piece on a Super Audio CD, CD, VIDEO CD or MP3. An album is composed of several tracks (MP3 only).

VIDEO CD

A compact disc that contains moving pict ur es. The pictur e data uses the MPE G 1 format, on e of the worldwide standards of digital compression technology. The pict ur e data is compressed to about 1/140 of its original size. Consequently, a 12 cm VIDEO CD can contain up to 74 minutes of moving pictures. VIDEO CDs also co nt ai n compact audio data. Sounds outside the ra nge of human hearing are compressed whil e th e s ounds we can hear are not compressed. VIDEO CDs can hold 6 times the audio informati on of conventional aud io CDs. There are 2 versions of VI D E O CDs.

• Version 1.1: You can play only moving

pictures and soun ds.

• Version 2.0: You can play high-resolution still pictures an d enjoy PBC function s.

This system conforms to both versions.
