Before Use (Continued)
Precautions
Handling the unit
When shipping the unit
The original shipping carton and packing materials come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the unit as it was originally packed at the factory.
When setting up the unit
The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR, or radio may be distorted during playback. In this case, position the unit away from the TV, VCR, or radio, or turn off the unit after removing the disc.
To keep the exterior surfaces clean
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray, near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will leave marks on the surface.
Cleaning the unit
To clean the cabinet
Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine, or thinner, as these might damage the surface of the unit.
To obtain a clear picture
The DVD player is a high-tech, precision device. If the optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn, the picture quality will be poor. Regular inspection and maintenance are recommended after every 1,000 hours of use. (This depends on the operating environment.) For details, please contact your nearest dealer.
Notes on Discs
Handling discs
Do not touch the playback side of the disc. Hold the disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not get on the surface. Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.
Storing discs
After playing, store the disc in its case. Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct sun­light, as there may be a considerable temperature increase inside the car.
Cleaning discs
Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor pic­ture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the cen­ter out.
Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for older vinyl records.

Each DVD disc has a variety of audio output options. Set the player’s Digital Audio Output according to the type of audio system you use. DOLBY DIGITAL/PCM: Select DOLBY DIGITAL/PCM if you connect the DVD Player’s DIGITAL OUT jack to a Dolby Digital decoder (or an amplifier or other equip­ment with a Dolby Digital decoder).

Sample Frequency
To change the Sample Frequency setting, first select the desired Digital Audio Output as indicated as above. If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of handling 96KHz signals, select 48KHz. When this choice is made, this unit will automatically convert any 96KHz sig­nals to 48KHz so your system can decode them. If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling 96KHz signals, select 96KHz. When this choice is made, this unit will pass each type of signal through without any further processing.

Then, you may listen to a movie at a lower volume without losing clarity of sound. Set DRC to On for this effect.
Vocal
Set Vocal to On only when a multi-channel karaoke DVD is playing. The karaoke channels on the disc will mix into normal stereo sound.
Auto Play
You can set up the DVD Player so a DVD disc automati­cally starts playing whenever the DVD is inserted. If Auto Play mode is set to On, this DVD player will search for title that has the longest playback time and then play back the title automatically.
On: Auto Play function is active. Off: Auto Play function is not active.

Notes on MP3/WMA Recordings
About MP3
A MP3 file is audio data compressed by using the MPEG1 audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. Files that have the .mp3file extension are called MP3 files”.
The player can not read a MP3 file that has a file extension other than “.mp3”.
About WMA (Window Media Audio)
A WMA file is Microsoft audio compression technology.
WMA (Windows Media Audio) offers double the audio compression of the MP3 format.
MP3/WMA Disc compatibility with this player is limited as follows:
1. Sampling Frequency / only at 44.1kHz (MP3),
22.05 - 44.1kHz (WMA)
2. Bit rate / within 32 - 320kbps (MP3), 32 - 128kbps (WMA)
3. CD-R physical format should be ISO 9660
4. If you record MP3/WMA files using software which cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example “Direct- CDetc., it is impossible to playback MP3/WMA files. We recommend that you use Easy-CD Creator, which creates an ISO9660 file system.
5. A single session disc requires MP3/WMA files in the first track. If there is no MP3/WMA file in the 1st track, it cannot playback MP3/WMA files. If you wish to playback MP3/WMA files, format all the data in the disc or use a new one.
6. File names should be named using 8 letters or less and must incorporate .mp3or .wmaextension e.g. ********.mp3or ********.wma”.
7. Do not use special letters such as “/ : * ? “ < > ” etc.
8. Total number of files on the disc should be less than
650.
This DVD player requires discs/recordings to meet certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically set to these standards. There are many different types of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3 or WMA files). They require certain pre-existing conditions (see above) to insure compatible playback.
Customers should also note that permission is required in order to download MP3/WMA files and music from the Internet. Our company has no right to grant such permission. Permission should always be sought from the copyright owner.
