around this unit for adequate ventilation.
3
Locate this unit away from other electrical
appliances, motors, or transformers to avoid
humming sounds.
4
Do not expose this unit to sudden temperature
changes from cold to hot, nor locate this unit in
an environment with high humidity (i.e., a room
with a humidifier) to prevent condensation inside
this unit, which may cause an electrical shock, fire,
damage to this unit, and/or personal injury.
5
Avoid installing this unit in a location where
foreign objects may fall onto this unit or where
this unit may be exposed to liquid dripping or
splashing. On the top of this unit, do not place:
– Other components, as they may cause damage
and/or discoloration on the surface of this unit.
– Burning objects (i.e., candles), as they may
cause fire, damage to this unit, and/or personal
injury.
– Containers with liquid in them, as they may fall,
spilling the liquid and causing an electrical
shock to the user and/or damage to this unit.
6
Do not cover this unit with a newspaper,
tablecloth, curtain, etc. in order not to obstruct
heat radiation. If the temperature inside this unit
rises, it may cause fire, damage to this unit, and/or
personal injury.
7
Do not plug in this unit to a wall outlet until all
connections are complete.
8
Do not operate this unit upside-down. It may
overheat, possibly causing damage.
9
Do not use excessive force on switches, knobs
and/or cords.
10
When disconnecting the power cord from the

If your AV receiver has video output jacks,
connect your receiver and then your TV
so that you can use one TV for several
different video sources (LD, VCR, etc.) by
simply switching the input source selector
of your receiver.
This unit has four types of video output
jacks. Use the one that corresponds to the
input jacks of the component to be
connected.
Component video jacks
Component video connections achieve
high fidelity color reproduction than S-
video connections by transmitting video
signals on separate wires for luminance (Y:
green) and chrominance (PB: blue, PR: red).
Connect VIDEO OUT - COMPONENT
(Y, PB/CB, PR/CR) jacks of this unit to
component input jacks of your AV receiver
and then to those of your TV using a
commercially available component cable.
Observe the color of each jack when you
make connections.
If your receiver does not have component
output jacks, you can achieve a better
video image by connecting the component
output jacks of this unit directly to the
component input jacks of your TV.
Note:
– You need to set “COMPONENT” to “YUV”
(see “Switching the YUV/RGB” on
page 28).
S-video jack
S-video connections achieve a clearer
picture than composite video connections
by transmitting video signals on separate
wires for luminance (Y) and chrominance
(C).
Connect VIDEO OUT - S VIDEO jack of
this unit to S-video input jack of your AV
receiver and then to that of your TV using
a commercially available S-video cable.
Composite video jack
Connect VIDEO OUT - VIDEO jack of this
unit to video input jack of your AV
receiver and then to that of your TV using
the supplied video pin cable.
SCART terminal
If your TV has only a terminal for video
input, you can connect the TV directly to
this unit.
Connect AV terminal of this unit to
SCART input terminal of your TV using a
commercially available SCART cable.
Note:
– Ensure that the “TV” indication on SCART
cable is connected to the TV set and “DVD”
indication on SCART cable is connected to
this unit.

Problem
Solution
Analog: Sound that has not been turned into
numbers. Analog sound varies, while digital sound
has specific numerical values. These jacks send
audio through two channels, the left and right.
Aspect ratio: The ratio of vertical and
horizontal sizes of a displayed image. The
horizontal vs. vertical ratio of conventional TVs.
is 4:3, and that of widescreens is 16:9.
Audio output jacks: Jacks on the back of the
DVD System that send audio to another system
(TV, Stereo, etc.).
Bit rate: The amount of data used to hold a given
length of music; measured in kilobits per seconds,
or kbps. Or, the speed at which you record.
Generally, the higher the bit rate, or the higher the
recording speed, the better the sound quality.
However, higher bit rates use more space on a Disc.
Chapter: Sections of a picture or a music piece
on a DVD that are smaller than titles. A title is
composed of several chapters. Each chapter is
assigned a chapter number enabling you to locate
the chapter you want.
Component video output jacks: Jacks on the
back of the DVD System that send high-quality
video to a TV that has Component Video In jacks
(R/G/B, Y/Pb/Pr, etc.).
Disc menu: A screen display prepared for
allowing selection of images, sounds, subtitles,
multi-angles, etc. recorded on a DVD.
Digital: Sound that has been converted into
numerical values. Digital sound is available when
you use the digital audio output jacks. These
jacks send audio through multiple channels,
instead of just two channels as analog does.
DivX: DivX is a popular media technology
created by DivX, Inc. DivX media files contain
highly compressed video with high visual quality
that maintains a relatively small file size. DivX files
can also include advanced media features like

content and easy-to-use tools from DivX.com.
DivX Ultra: DivX Ultra Certified products
provide enhanced playback of advanced media
features supported by the DivX Media Format.
Key features include interactive video menus,
subtitles, alternate audio tracks, video tags and
chapter points.
DMF (DivX Media Format): The DivX Media
Format supports advanced media features,
adding controls for an interactive media
experience: interactive video menus, chapter
points, multi-language subtitles and alternate
audio tracks.
Dolby Digital: A surround sound system
developed by Dolby Laboratories containing up to
six channels of digital audio (front left and right,
surround left and right, center and subwoofer).
DTS: Digital Theatre Systems. This is a surround
sound system, but it is different from Dolby
Digital. The formats were developed by different
companies.
Interactive menu: Interactive video menus
offer unprecedented convenience and control so
you can quickly navigate between various scenes
or bonus features, and select from audio track
and subtitle options.
JPEG: A very common digital still picture
format. A still-picture data compression system
proposed by the Joint Photographic Expert
Group, which features small decrease in image
quality in spite of its high compression ratio.
MP3: A file format with a sound data
compression system. “MP3” is the abbreviation
of Motion Picture Experts Group 1 (or MPEG-1)
Audio Layer 3. By using MP3 format, one CD-R
or CD-RW can contain about 10 times as much
data volume as a regular CD can.
Parental control: A function of the DVD to
limit playback of the disc by the age of the users
according to the limitation level in each country.
The limitation varies from disc to disc; when it is
activated, playback will be prohibited if the
software’s level is higher than the user-set level.
PCM (Pulse Code Modulation): A system for
converting analog sound signal to digital signal for
later processing, with no data compression used
in conversion.
Playback control (PBC): Refers to the signal
recorded on video CDs or SVCDs for
controlling reproduction. By using menu screens
recorded on a Video CD or SVCD that supports
PBC, you can enjoy interactive-type software as
well as software having a search function.
Play list: A list of selected titles to be played back
in a specific order. This option is only available
with VR format and must be created beforehand.
Progressive scan: It displays all the horizontal
lines of a picture at one time, as a signal frame.
This system can convert the interlaced video
from DVD into progressive format for
connection to a progressive display. It
dramatically increases the vertical resolution.
Region code: A system for allowing discs to be
played back only in the region designated
beforehand. This unit will only play discs that
have compatible region codes. You can find the
region code of your unit by looking on the
product label. Some discs are compatible with
more than one region (or ALL regions).
S-video: Produces a clear picture by sending
separate signals for the luminance and the color.
You can use S-video only if your TV has S-video
input jack.
Surround: A system for creating realistic three
dimensional sound fields full of realism by
arranging multiple speakers around the listener.
Title: The longest section of a picture or music
feature on DVD, music, etc., in video software,
or the entire album in audio software. Each title
is assigned a title number enabling you to locate
the title you want.
Video output jack: Jack on the back of the
DVD System that sends video to a TV.
VR (Video Recording) format: A format
which enables you to create a DVD disc that can
be extensively re-edited.
