Precautions
On safety
• Caution – The use of optical instruments with this
product will increase eye hazard.
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet,
unplug the player and have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it any further.
On power sources
• The player is not disconnected from the AC power
source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall
outlet, even if the player itself has been turned off.
• If you are not going to use the player for a long time, be
sure to disconnect the player from the wall outlet. To
disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead), grasp the
plug itself; never pull the cord.
• Should the AC power cord (mains lead) need to be
changed, have it done at a qualified service shop only.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Caution: The enclosed DVD player is capable of
holding a still video image or On screen display
image on your television screen indefinitely. If you
leave the still video image or On screen display image
displayed on your TV for an extended period of time
you risk permanent damage to your television screen.
Projection televisions are very susceptible.
Notes on Discs
On placement
• Place the player in a location with adequate ventilation
to prevent heat build-up in the player.
• Do not place the player on a soft surface such as a rug
that might block the ventilation holes on the bottom.
• Do not place the player in a location near heat sources,
or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or
mechanical shock.
On operation
• If the player 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 player. Should
this occur, the player may not operate properly. In this
case, remove the disc and leave the player turned on for
about half an hour until the moisture evaporates.
On adjusting volume
• Do not turn up the volume while listening to a portion
with very low level inputs or no audio signals. If you
do, the speakers may be damaged when a peak level
portion is played.
On cleaning
• Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth
slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do
not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or
solvent such as alcohol or benzine.
If you have any questions or problems concerning your
player, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
On handling discs
• To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its edge. Do
not touch the surface.
• Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.
If there is glue (or a similar substance) on the disc,
remove the glue completely before using the disc.
• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or heat sources
such as hot air ducts, or leave it in a car parked in direct
sunlight as there can be considerable rise in temperature
inside the car.
• After playing, store the disc in its case.
On cleaning
• Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth.
Wipe the disc from the center out.
• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,
commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray
intended for vinyl LPs.

5.1 Channel Surround Hookups
Getting Started
Some DVDs have a sound track with up to 5.1 channels
recorded in Dolby* Digital or MPEG AUDIO format.
Using a receiver (amplifier) having 5.1 channel inputs and
the 5 (+1) speakers, you can enjoy more real audio
presence in the comfort of your own home.
“5 channel” stands for the 2 front speakers (Left and
Right), 2 rear speakers (Left and Right) and 1 center
speaker. The “0.1 channel” (+1) stands for the subwoofer
which outputs the bass.
Even if you have fewer than 5 (+1) speakers, the player
distributes the output signal to the speakers appropriately.
This player has VIRTUAL 3D SURROUND mode.
You can use the 3D sound imaging to shift the sound of
the rear speakers away from the actual speaker position
(VIRTUAL REAR SHIFT) or to create 3 sets of virtual rear
speakers from 1 set of actual rear speakers (VIRTUAL
MULTI REAR). For details on the VIRTUAL 3D
SURROUND mode, see page 34.
Note
When a DVD has a sound track with 7.1 channels recorded in
MPEG AUDIO format, the output audio signals are mixed down
to 5.1 channels.
Speaker placement
For the best possible surround sound, we recommend the
following conditions.
• Use higher performance speakers.
• Use rear and center speakers that match your front
speakers in size and performance.
• All speakers should be the same distance from the
listening position.
• Place the subwoofer between the front (L, R) speakers if
possible.
Notes
• Do not connect the power cord to an AC outlet or press
the POWER switch before completing all connections.
• The cord connectors should be fully inserted into the
jacks. Loose connection may cause hum and noise.
• Jacks and plugs of the connecting cords are color-coded
as follows:
Red jacks and plugs: Right audio channel
White jacks and plugs: Left audio channel
You can use either red or white cables to connect the
center speaker and subwoofer.
• When you connect the component via the DIGITAL
OUT OPTICAL or COAXIAL connector using an optical
or coaxial digital connecting cord (not supplied), see
page 11.
Setups for the player
Some setups are necessary for the player depending on
the components to be connected.
Use the setup display or the Control Menu display to
change the various settings.
For details on using the setup display, see page 47.
For details on enjoying Digital Cinema Sound, see page
34.
• To enjoy Dolby Digital or MPEG AUDIO surround
sound by connecting the player to a receiver
(amplifier) with 5.1 ch inputs
Set each speaker position or distance, etc. See page 59.
Note
Do not place the center or rear speakers farther away from the
listening position than the front speakers.
