Caution for AC Mains Lead

(For United Kingdom)

(U.K. model only)

For your safety, please read the following text carefully.

This appliance is supplied with a moulded three pin mains plug for your safety and convenience. A 5-ampere fuse is fitted in this plug. Should the fuse need to be replaced please ensure that the replacement fuse has a rating of 5-ampere and that it is approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362. Check for the ASTA mark m or the BSI mark o on the body of the fuse.

If the plug contains a removable fuse cover you must ensure that it is refitted when the fuse is replaced. If you lose the fuse cover the plug must not be used until a replacement cover is obtained. A replacement fuse cover can be purchased from your local dealer.

CAUTION!

IF THE FITTED MOULDED PLUG IS UNSUITABLE FOR THE SOCKET OUTLET IN YOUR HOME THEN THE FUSE SHOULD BE REMOVED AND THE PLUG CUT OFF AND DISPOSED OF SAFELY. THERE IS A DANGER OF SEVERE ELECTRICAL SHOCK IF THE CUT OFF PLUG IS INSERTED INTO ANY 13-AMPERE SOCKET.

WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT EITHER WIRE TO THE EARTH TERMINAL WHICH IS MARKED WITH THE LETTER E, BY THE EARTH SYMBOL n OR COLOURED GREEN OR GREEN/YELLOW.

THIS PLUG IS NOT WATERPROOF—KEEP DRY.

Before use

Remove the connector cover.

How to replace the fuse

The location of the fuse differ according to the type of AC mains plug (figures A and B). Confirm the AC mains plug fitted and follow the instructions below. Illustrations may differ from actual AC mains plug.

1. Open the fuse cover with a screwdriver.

Figure A

Getting started

If a new plug is to be fitted please observe the wiring code as stated below. If in any doubt please consult a qualified electrician.

IMPORTANT

The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: Blue: Neutral, Brown: Live. As these colours 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 or Blue. The wire which is coloured Brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured Brown or Red.

Safety precautions

The remote control

Placement

Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct sunlight, high temperatures, high humidity, and excessive vibration. These conditions can damage the cabinet and other components, thereby shortening the unit’s service life.

Do not place heavy items on the unit.

Voltage

Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload the unit and cause a fire.

Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully when setting the unit up on a ship or other place where DC is used.

Getting started

AC mains lead protection

Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not damaged. Poor connection and lead damage can cause fire or electric shock. Do not pull, bend, or place heavy items on the lead.

Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the AC mains lead can cause electric shock.

Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause electric shock.

³mix old and new batteries. ³use different types at the same time. ³heat or expose to flame. ³take apart or short circuit. ³attempt to recharge alkaline or manganese batteries. ³use batteries if the covering has been peeled off.

Mishandling of batteries can cause electrolyte leakage which can damage items the fluid contacts and may cause a fire. If electrolyte leaks from the batteries, consult your dealer. Wash thoroughly with water if electrolyte comes in contact with any part of your body.

Remove if the remote control is not going to be used for a long period of time. Store in a cool, dark place. Replace if the unit does not respond to the remote control even when held close to the front panel.

Use

Remote control signal sensor

Service

Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is interrupted, indicators fail to light, smoke appears, or any other problem that is not covered in these instructions occurs, disconnect the AC mains lead and contact your dealer or an authorized service center. Electric shock or damage to the unit can occur if the unit is repaired, disassembled or reconstructed by unqualified persons.

Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the power source if it is not to be used for a long time.

Do not place the unit on amplifiers or equipment that may become hot.

The heat can damage the unit.

º Playing DVDs and Video CDs

The producer of the material can control how these discs are played. This means that you may not be able to control play of a disc with some operations described in these operating instructions. Read the disc’s instructions carefully.

Connection

As this unit has built-in Dolby Digital and DTS decoders (á page 29), you can enjoy discs recorded with these systems by connecting this unit to the 6-channel input terminals on an AV amplifier (connection [B] below). However, to enjoy the special sound effects available with AV amplifiers that can make you feel like you were in a cinema or hall, connect this unit digitally to the AV amplifier (connection [A] below).

Use analog connection [B] to enjoy the high quality audio (sampling frequencies of 192 kHz and 96 kHz) and multi-channel audio found on DVD-Audio. If the disc is copyright-protected, the audio can only be output through the digital output terminal if it is converted to 48 kHz.

To make an analog recording

Connect the recording equipment with an audio cable (á [D] page 8).

º Digital recording

You can record the digital signal directly onto an MD. The signals on DVDs will be converted to 48 kHz/16 bit linear PCM. Ensure the following conditions are met.

³There is no copy guard recorded on the disc. ³The recording equipment can handle a sampling frequency of

48 kHz/16 bit.

To make a digital recording

1. Connect the recording equipment with an optical or coaxial digital audio cable (á [A] page 7).

2. When recording DVDs, change the digital audio output settings (á page 24 and 28). PCM Down Conversion: Yes Dolby Digital/DTS Digital Surround: PCM MPEG: PCM Digital Audio Output: On (á page 24) VIRTUAL SURROUND (V.S.S.): OFF (á page 19)
