Possible connections are shown in the following drawings. Please refer to the manuals of other equipment as necessary to make the best connections. Do not connect the player via your VCR. The video quality could be distorted by the copy protection system. Do not connect the player’s audio out jack to the phono in jack of your audio system. Use RCA audio cable supplied with the player to connect AUDIO OUT L (left) and R (right) jacks of the player to corresponding input jacks of your audio equipment such as Stereo amplifier. You can connect a subwoofer to the player’s SUBWOOFER (AUDIO OUT) jack. English ¶ General Notes AUDIO OUT PCM DIGITAL DTS MPEG 1 2 COAXIAL OPTICAL SUBWOOFER R L R L VIDEO Digital Connections (supplied) The player has COAXIAL and OPTICAL digital out jacks. Connect one or both of them to your AV receiver equipped with Dolby digital, DTS, or MPEG decoder using each specific cable (separate purchase).

Note: – If the audio format of the digital output does not match the capabilities of your receiver, the receiver will produce a strong, distorted sound or no sound at all. Make sure to select the appropriate audio format at menu screen included on the disc. Pressing AUDIO once or more may change not only audio languages but also audio formats, and the selected format appears for several seconds on the status window.

Use commercially available coaxial cables. Receiver (and TV) with component input is required. Observe the color of each jack when connecting. If your receiver does not have component output jacks, connecting the player’s component output directly to your TV’s component input can reproduce better video image. You can switch the NTSC/PAL setting of the player to match the video signal of your TV. This setting only affects the television’s on-screen display that shows the stop and setup modes. You may select either NTSC or PAL. To change the player setting to PAL or NTSC, follow the steps below. Note: – Do not connect the player’s COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks to component video input jacks special for HD (HighDefinition) TV. S-Video terminal <B> S (separate) video connection achieves a clearer picture than composite video connection by separating color and luminance when transmitting signals. Use commercially available S-video cable. Receiver (and TV) with S-video input is required. Composite Video terminal (1, 2) <C> Use RCA video cable supplied with the player when connecting the player to a TV. VIDEO 1, 2 jacks of VIDEO OUT output the same signal. You can connect one to your receiver’s input using supplied RCA cable, and the other to another receiver or a TV. 1 Press the POWER button on the front panel of the player 2 3 4 to turn off the player. Press and hold 9 and T on the front of the player. While holding 9 and T, press POWER. After PAL or NTSC appears on the player display, release 9 and T at the same time. The PAL or NTSC indicator that appears on the player display indicates the current setting. To change the setting, press T within three seconds. The new setting (PAL or NTSC) will appear on the player display. NTSC/PAL Conversion The player is equipped with a NTSC/PAL conversion feature to convert the video output of the disc to match your TV system. The conversions supported are as below: Disc Type DVD VCD Format NTSC Output format Selected mode PAL NTSC AUTO PAL60 NTSC NTSC PAL Not Supported PAL PAL NTSC NTSC PAL60 NTSC PAL NTSC PAL PAL Select among NTSC, PAL and AUTO. See ‘Personal Preferences’ for operational procedure. Notes: – AUTO can only be selected when using a TV that has both the NTSC and PAL systems. – Slight picture distortions may occur due to this conversion. This is normal.Thus, the AUTO format is most suitable for the best picture quality. 6 P REPARATION  General Explanation This manual gives the basic instructions for operating the player.
