PLEASE CAREFULLY READ THIS OPERATION MANUAL
AND THEN SAVE IT FOR FUTURE REFERENCE AS IT
WILL BE USEFUL IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEMS in OP-
ERATING YOUR DVD RECEIVER IN THE FUTURE.
Power Cord Protection
To avoid any malfunctions of the unit, and to protect against
electric shock, fire or personal injury, please observe the
following.
Hold the plug firmly when connecting or disconnecting

GENERAL INFORMATION
Definition of Terms
Angle
Recorded onto some DVD discs are scenes which have been simultaneously shot from a number of different angles (the
same scene is shot from the front, from the left side, from the right side, etc.). With such discs, the ANGLE button can be
used to view the scene from different angles.
Chapter Number
These numbers are recorded on DVD discs. A title is subdivided into many sections, each of which is numbered, and
specific parts of video presentations can be searched quickly using these numbers.
DVD
This refers to a high-density optical disc on which high-quality pictures and sound have been recorded by means of digital
signals. Incorporating a new video compression technology (MPEG II) and high-density recording technology, DVD en-
ables esthetically pleasing full-motion video to be recorded over long period of time (for instance, a whole movie can be
recorded).
DVD has a structure consisting of two 0.6 mm thin discs which are adhered to each other. Since the thinner the disc, the
higher the density at which the information can be recorded,a DVD disc has a greater capacity than a single 1.2mm thick
disc. Since the two thin discs are adhered to each other, there is the potential to achieve double-sided play sometime in the
future for even longer duration play.
Linear PCM Sound
Linear PCM is a signal recording format used for audio CDs.
The sound on audio CDs is recorded at 44.1kHz with 16 bits. (On DVD discs, sound is recorded at between 48kHz with16
bits and 96kHz with 24 bits.)
Playback Control (PBC)
This is recorded on a video CD (version 2.0). The scenes or information to be viewed (or listened to) can be selected
interactively with the TV monitor by looking at the menu shown on the TV monitor.
Subtitles
These are the printed lines appearing at the bottom of the screen which translate or transcribe the dialogue. They are
recorded on DVD discs.
Time Number
This indicates the play time which has elapsed from the start of a disc or a title. It can be used to find a specific scene
quickly. (It may not work with some discs.)
Title Number
These numbers are recorded on DVD discs. When a disc contains two or more movies, these movies are numbered as
title 1, title 2, ect.
Track Number
These numbers are assigned to the tracks which are recorded on video CDs and audio CDs.They enable specific tracks
to be located quickly.
Video CD(VCD)
This contains recordings of pictures and sound whose quality is on a par with that of videotape. This player also supports
video CDs with playback control (version 2.0).
On Screen Display (OSD)
OSD screens for showing the disc information or player information and providing access to many major functions of this
unit.

wrung out thoroughly and then wipe again with a dry cloth.
Never use alcohol, benzine, thinner, cleaning fluid or other chemicals. And do not use compressed air to remove dust.
If the playing surface of a disc is soiled or scratched, the player
may decide that the disc is incompatible and eject the disc tray,
or it may fail to play the disc correctly. Wipe any soiling off the
playing surface with a soft cloth.
To hold the disc by the edges so the surface will not be soiled with fingerprints.
( A )
Fingerprints, dirt and scratches can cause skipping and distortion.
Do not write on the label side with a ball-point pen or other writing utensils.
Do not use record clearing sprays, benzine, thinner, static electricity prevention
liquids or any other solvent.
Be careful not to drop or bend the disc.
Do not install more than 1 disc on the disc tray.
Do not try to close the disc tray when the disc is not installed properly. ( B )
Be sure to store the disc in its exclusive case when not in use. Then store
upright.
Do not stick paper or adhesive labels to the disc.
If the Surface is Soiled ( C )
Wipe gently with a soft, damp (water only) cloth.
When wiping discs, always move the cloth from the centre hold toward the outer
edge.
(If you wipe the discs using a circular motion, circular scratches are likely to occur,
which will cause noise.)
If the Disc is Brought from a Cold to a Warm Environment,
Moisture may form on the disc
Wipe this moisture off with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth before using the disc.
Improper Disc Storage
You can damage discs if you store them in the following places:
Areas exposed to direct sunlight
Humid or dusty areas
Areas directly exposed to a heat outlet or heating appliance

nectors on speakers rear panel, a black one marked (-)
and a red one (for the front speakers or surround right
speaker), a gray one (for the center speaker), a white one

In order to prevent phase reversal, connect the marked or
colored wire to the matching speaker terminals.

GENERAL INFORMATION
POSITIONING THE SPEAKERS POSITIONING THE SPEAKERS
Avoid positioning the speakers in corners, as this will boost
too much the bass tones.
Placing the speaker behind curtains, furniture etc. will re-
duce the treble response, thus reducing the stereo effect
considerably. The listener should still be able to see the
speaker.
Each room has different acoustic characteristics and posi-
tioning possibilities are often limited. You can find the best
position for your speakers by experimenting. In general,
the speakers should be arranged as symmetrically as pos-
sible.
Positioning the FRONT speakers
The front speakers should be placed in frant of the listener,
left speaker to the left and right speaker to the right. This
can be checked with the balance control on the main unit.
The best height for the front speaker is where the high fre-
quency speakers ( tweeters ) are at ear height ( while
seated ).
Positioning the CENTER speaker
The center speaker should be placed centrally between the
front speakers, e.g. underneath or on top of the TV.
The best height for the center speaker is at the height of
your ears (while seated).
Positioning the SURROUND speaker
The surround speaker should be placed behind the listener,
left speaker to the left and right speaker to the right.
The surround speakers face the listener is recommended.
Positioning the SUBWOOFER speaker
Place the subwoofer to the left or right of the television as
seen from the front of television.
