Before Switching on make sure that the voltage of your electricity supply is the same as that indicated on the rating plate.

Mains Cord

This appliance may be fitted with a non-rewireable plug. If it is necessary to change the fuse in a nonrewireable plug the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost or damaged, the plug must not be used until a replacement available from the appliance manufacturer is obtained. It is important that the colour of the replacement fuse cover corresponds with the rating marking on the base of the plug. If the plug has to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or becomes damaged, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted following the wiring instructions below. The plug removed must be disposed of safely as insertion into a 13A socket is likely to cause an electrical hazard.

BLUE=NEUTRAL, BROWN=LIVE

Important

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance 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 terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black. The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red. No connection is to be made to the earth terminal of the plug. If a 13 Amp (BS 1363) Plug is used, a 3 Amp Fuse must be fitted, or if any other type of Plug is used a 3 or 5 Amp Fuse must be fitted, either in the Plug or Adaptor, or on the Distribution Board.

Mains Supply: 220 - 240V 50 Hz - AC only

Compatibility

Playing back discs recorded in Video mode on any regular DVD player:

Although DVD+RW / R discs are playable on other units without finalisation in most cases, it is recommended to finalise in order to stabilise the performance.

* DVD-Video Format (Video mode) is a new format for

recording on DVD-RW/-R discs that was approved by the DVD Forum in 2000. Adoption of this format is optional for manufactures of DVD playback devices and there are DVD-Video players, DVD-ROM drives and other DVD playback devices available that cannot play back DVD-RW/-R discs recorded in the DVD-Video Format.

Selecting Progressive Scan (576p/480p or Interlaced 576i/480i) Playback

• If your TV is compatible with progressive scanning (576p/480p), connect the TV to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT jacks of this unit and set “Video Out” setting to “Component Progressive (P)” in the setup menu. (See page 74.) Next, set your TV to the progressive scan mode.

• If your TV is not compatible with progressive scan, set “Video Out” setting to “Component Interlace (I)”.

• Use a commercially available adaptor if the Video input jacks of your TVs or monitors are the BNC type.

Using the COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT jacks and the ANALOG AUDIO OUT jacks

If your TV has Component Video input jacks, use a Component Video cable, and an Audio Cable (to connect the ANALOG AUDIO OUT jacks).

• Component connection provides the better quality picture.

Connection to a TV with an HDMI Compatible Port

[HDMI CONNECTION]

A simple 1-cable connection with a device having an HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) connector allows digital transfer of the digital images of DVD-video and other devices. This is the best method to connect this unit. It can minimise the deterioration of image quality. Use the HDMI cable (commercially available) for connection. Connect the HDMI output jack of this unit to the HDMI input jack of TV.

If the connected device is not compatible with HDMI BITSTREAM, audio will be output as PCM even if you select “Stream” in “Dolby Digital” setting (Refer to pages 71-72).

To play back the digital video images of a DVD via an HDMI connection, it is necessary that both the player and the display device (or an AV amplifier) support a copyright protection system called HDCP (highbandwidth digital content protection system). HDCP is copy protection technology that comprises data encryption and authentication of the connected AV device. This unit supports HDCP. Please read the operating instructions of your display device (or AV amplifier) for more information.

Note

• Because HDMI is an evolving technology, it is possible that some devices with an HDMI input may not operate properly with this unit.

• When using an HDCP-incompatible display device, the image will not be viewed properly.

• Among the devices that support HDMI, some devices can control other devices via the HDMI connector; however, this unit cannot be controlled by another device vice the HDMI connector.

• The audio signals from the HDMI connector (including the sampling frequency, the number of channels and bit length) maybe limited by the device that is connected.

• Among the monitors that support HDMI, some do not support audio output (for example, projectors). In connections with device such as this unit, audio signals are not output from the HDMI output connector.

• When this unit’s HDMI connector is connected to a DVI-D compatible monitor (HDCP compatible) with an HDMI-DVI converter cable, the signals are output in digital RGB.

• If the connected equipment is not compatible with HDMI BITSTREAM, DTS sound will not be output.

• When the power failure occurs, or when you unplug the unit, some problems in the HDMI setting might occur. Please check and set the HDMI setting again.

Connecting to External Equipment

This unit has three input terminals, AV1 or AV2 on the rear panel and AV3 on the front panel. Be sure that all the units are off before making connections.

If the audio format of the digital output does not match the capabilities of your receiver, the receiver will produce a strong, distorted sound or no sound at all.

After You Have Completed Connections

Switch the input selector on your TV to an appropriate external input channel. For details, refer to the Owner’s Manual of your TV.

Note

• Connect this unit directly to the TV. If the AV cables are connected to a VCR, pictures may be distorted due to the effects of the copy protection system.

Connecting a Dolby Digital™ decoder, DTS decoder or MPEG decoder

• Connecting multi-channel Dolby Digital decoder allows you to enjoy the Multi-channel Dolby Digital surround system as well as DTS decoder, Multichannel surround system.

• After connecting to a Dolby Digital decoder, set “Dolby Digital” to “Stream” in the Audio out menu. (See page 72.)

• After connecting to a DTS decoder, set “DTS” to “ON” in the Audio out menu. (See page 72.)

• After connecting to a MPEG decoder, set “MPEG” to “Stream” in the Audio out menu. (See page 72.)

Connecting to an MD deck or DAT deck

• The audio source recorded in Dolby Digital Multichannel surround format cannot be recorded using an MD or DAT deck as a digital sound.

• If not connected to a Dolby Digital decoder, set “Dolby Digital” to “PCM” in the Audio out menu. Playing back a DVD using incorrect settings may generate noise distortion and damage speakers.

• Set “Dolby Digital” and “MPEG” to “PCM” and set “DTS” to “OFF” in the Audio out menu for connecting to an MD or DAT deck.

• You can use ANALOG AUDIO OUT jacks for the connection of your audio system.
