Safety Warnings

This symbol indicates that dangerous voltage which

can cause electric shock is present inside this unit.

This symbol alerts you to important operating and

maintenance instructions accompanying the unit.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not

expose this appliance to rain or moisture.

CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH

WIDE BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT, FULLY

Wiring the Main Power Supply Plug(UK Only)

IMPORTANT NOTICE

The main lead on this equipment is supplied with a moulded plug incorporating a fuse. The value of the fuse is indicated on the pin

face of the plug and if it requires replacing, a fuse approved to BS1362 of the same rating must be used.

Never use the plug with the fuse cover removed. If the cover is detachable and a replacement is required, it must be of the same

colour as the fuse fitted in the plug. Replacement covers are available from your dealer.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for the power points in your house or the cable is not long enough to reach a power point, you should

obtain a suitable safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer for assistance.

However, if there is no alternative to cutting off the plug, remove the fuse and then safely dispose of the plug. Do not connect the

plug to a main socket as there is a risk of shock hazard from the bared flexible cord.

Never attempt to insert bare wires directly into a main socket. A plug and fuse must be used at all times.

IMPORTANT

The wires in the main lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:–

BLUE = NEUTRAL BROWN = LIVE

As these colours may not correspond to the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as

follows:–

The wire coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter N or coloured BLUE or BLACK.

The wire coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter L or coloured BROWN or RED.

WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT EITHER WIRE TO THE EARTH TERMINAL WHICH IS MARKED WITH

THE LETTER E OR BY THE EARTH SYMBOL , OR COLOURED GREEN OR GREEN

Precautions

Ensure that the AC power supply in your house complies with the identification sticker located on the back of your player. Install

your player horizontally, on a suitable base (furniture), with enough space around it for ventilation (3~4inches). Make sure the

ventilation slots are not covered. Do not stack anything on top of the player. Do not place the player on amplifiers or other

equipment which may become hot. Before moving the player, ensure the disc tray is empty. This player is designed for

continuous use. Switching off the DVD player to the stand-by mode does not disconnect the electrical supply. In order to

disconnect the player completely from the power supply, remove the main plug from the wall outlet, especially when left unused

for a long period of time.

Protect the player from moisture(i.e. vases) , and excess

heat(e.g.fireplace) or equipment creating strong magnetic or

electric fields (i.e.speakers...). Disconnect the power cable from

the AC supply if the player malfunctions. Your player is not

intended for industrial use.

Use of this product is for personal use only.

Condensation may occur if your player or disc have been

stored in cold temperatures.

If transporting the player during the winter, wait approximately 2

hours until the unit has reached room temperature before using.

During thunderstorms, disconnect AC main plug from

the wall outlet.

Voltage peaks due to lightning could damage the unit.

Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or other heat

sources.

This could lead to overheating and malfunction of the

unit.

The battery used with this product contain chemicals

that are harmful to the environment.

Do not dispose of batteries in the general household

trash.

Let's find out difference between general amplifier and AV receiver!

General Amplifier

2 channels (left speaker and right speaker)

Play back music mainly

No decoder

Not play back various kinds of sound formats

AV Receiver

Multiple Channel (5.1 channel by default)

Play back music and video sound realistically

Has decoder

Dolby Pro Logic ll x

Dolby Pro Logic ll x is a new type of multiple

channel audio signal decoding method that

improves upon existing Dolby Pro Logic.

DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

DTS play backs 5.1 channel sound of wide-range

by playing sound of DVD and CD disk as surround

sound system.

DTS 96/24

DTS is the surround format implementing 5.1

channel multi channel sounds of 96KHz/24bit

without losing the image quality of DVD. In addition,

it can reproduce the matrix 6.1 of DTS 96/24

decoder signal.

DTS-ES

DTS-ES is the surround format implementing

surround type of discrete 6.1 channel while

preserving upper compatibility in response to

existing DTS Digital Sound format.

It is the latest digital sound format maximizing the

space quality and 360 surround experience by

adding rear center channels.

DOLBY DIGITAL EX

It not only significantly enhances space expression

capability of surround channel but also easily

implements the sound localization at the rear

according to sound field reproduction at 6.1 channel

including rear center channel.

DTS

It reproduces the digital PCM or analog stereo

sound source in 6.1 channels using the high

precision digital matrix of DTS only.

It refers to home theater exclusive amplifier by amplifying the audio signal from DVD and CD player as a core element of

home theater.
