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.

• Do not put any foreign objects in the DC IN 10.5 V

(external power input) jack.

On AC power adaptor and AC power cord

• Use only the supplied AC power adaptor. Do not use

any other AC power adaptor. It may cause a

malfunction.

Polarity of the plug

• If the AC power adaptor causes interference to the radio

reception, move it away from the radio.

• Do not touch the AC power adaptor with wet hands.

• 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, contact the shop or refer to the Sony Web site

where you purchased this product.

• Use the player on AC 100 V only. If the player is used

on a car battery, the operation will not be guaranteed.

On placement

• Place the player in a location with adequate ventilation

to prevent heat build-up in the player.

• Do not place the player and the AC power adaptor 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.

• Do not place the player where it is humid or extremely

cold.

• Keep the player away from TVs, AM receivers and

VCRs. (A TV, AM receiver or VCR may cause noise

during playback. Since an indoor antenna is liable to

cause noise, use of an outdoor antenna is

recommended.)

• Do not put any heavy object on top of the player. The

player may be damaged.

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 section

with very low level inputs or no audio signals. If you

do, the speakers may be damaged when a peak level

section is played.

Manners when listening to stereo

• When you listen to music in stereo, turn down the

volume to avoid disturbing your neighbors. Sound

penetrates even at low volume

especially at night.

Take care to maintain a comfortable

environment by closing windows,

using headphones or such. This is

the symbol for good listening

manners.

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 the shop or refer to the Sony Web

site where you purchased it.

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

on it, such as a rental CD with a missing label. If you

use such a disc, you may not be able to eject it or it may

cause a malfunction.

On storing

• 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.

On cleaning

• Fingerprints or dust on a disc causes distortion of the

picture or deterioration of the sound quality.

2+1 Channel Surround Hookups

This connection is for listening to the sound through the

left and right speakers of the TV, or speakers connected to

a receiver and the subwoofer. You can enjoy rich bass

frequencies by connecting a subwoofer. Refer to the

instructions supplied with the component to be

connected.

Set “SUBWOOFER” in “SPEAKER SETUP” to “YES” in

the setup display (page 57). Then set “FRONT SPEAKER

SIZE” to “TV” when you use the TV’s speakers, or to

“LARGE,” “MIDDLE” or “SMALL” when you use the

speakers connected to the receiver.

You can enjoy surround sounds even if you connect front

speakers only

You can use 3D sound imaging to create virtual rear speakers

from the sound of the front speakers (L, R) without using actual

rear speakers (Virtual Enhanced Surround). For details, see page

39.

Required cords

Audio connecting cord (not supplied) (1)

S video cord (supplied) (1)

When connecting the cords, be sure to match the color-coded

Red and White (left) to White. Be sure to make connections firmly

to avoid hum and noise.

5.1 Channel Surround Hookups

With DVDs which contain DTS, Dolby Digital or MPEG

audio sound, you can enjoy the sorround sound while

producing the effect of being in a movie theater or a

concert hall, using a digital component with a built-in

DTS, Dolby Digital or MPEG decoder (not supplied). The

player outputs the surround sound signals from the

OPTICAL and COAXIAL connectors.

Using a receiver (amplifier) having the OPTICAL or

COAXIAL connector and the 6 speakers, you can enjoy

even greater real audio presence in the comfort of your

own home.

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.

Required cords

Audio connecting cord (not supplied)

One for the LINE OUT AUDIO jacks

Optical or coaxial digital cord (not supplied)

One for the OPTICAL or COAXIAL jack

S video cord (supplied)

One for the S-VIDEO jack

Connect the component via the OPTICAL or COAXIAL

connector using an optical or coaxial digital connecting cord (not

supplied). You do not need to connect both of these cords. See the

figure on the next page.

Notes

• Do not connect the power cord to an AC outlet or press the

POWER switch before completing all connections.

• Refer to the instructions supplied with the component to be

connected.

• The cord connectors should be fully inserted into the jacks. A

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

Setups for the player

Some setup adjustments are necessary for the player

depending on the components to be connected.

Use the setup display to change the various settings.

For details on using the setup display, see page 46.

• When you play a DVD that is recorded in DTS format

• When you play a DVD that is recorded in Dolby

Digital format

Set “DIGITAL OUT” in “AUDIO SETUP” to “ON” and

then set “DOLBY DIGITAL” to “DOLBY DIGITAL” in

the setup display (page 55).

• When you play a DVD that is recorded in MPEG

format

Set “DIGITAL OUT” in “AUDIO SETUP” to “ON” and

then set “MPEG” to “MPEG” in the setup display (page

55).

Notes

• Refer to the instructions supplied with the component to be

connected.
