Important notes for users in the
U.K.
Mains plug
This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13
Amp plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug
proceed as follows:
1
Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2
Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5 Amp,
A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.
3
Refit the fuse cover.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your jack
outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate
plug fitted in its place.
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should
have a value of 5 Amp. If a plug without a fuse
is used, the fuse at the distribution board should
not be greater than 5 Amp.
Note: The severed plug must be disposed to avoid
a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into
a 13 Amp jack elsewhere.
How to connect a plug
The wires in the mains lead are coloured with
the following code: blue = neutral (N),
brown = live (L).
●
As these colours may not correspond with the
colour markings identifying the terminals in your
plug, proceed as follows:
– Connect the blue wire to the terminal
marked N or coloured black.
– Connect the brown wire to the terminal
marked L or coloured red.
– Do not connect either wire to the earth
terminal in the plug, marked E (or e) or
coloured green (or green and yellow).
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain
that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath of
the lead - not simply over the two wires.

INVISIBLE LASER RADIATION WHEN OPEN
DO NOT STARE INTO BEAM
CAUTION:
INVISIBLE LASER RADIATION WHEN OPEN
AVOID DIRECT EXPOSURE TO THE BEAM
DANGER:
The unit is not disconnected from the AC power source
as long as it is connected to the wall outlet,even if this unit
itself is turned off.This state is called the standby mode.In
this state,this unit is designed to consume a very small
quantity of power.
L ’appareil n ’est pas isolé de la source d ’alimentation aussi
longtemps qu ’il reste branché sur une prise murale,même
lorsqu ’il est éteint.Il est alors dit en mode «Veille ».Dans
ce mode, l ’appareil consomme très peu de courant.
Das Gerät ist nicht vom Netz getrennt, solange der
Netzstecker noch mit der Wandsteckdose verbunden ist,
selbst wenn das Gerät ausgeschaltet wurde. Dieser
Betriebszustand wird als Bereitschaftsmodus bezeichnet. In
diesem Zustand nimmt das Gerät eine sehr geringe Menge
Strom auf.
Enheten är inte urkopplad från nätet så länge som den är
ansluten till vägguttaget även om enheten i sig självt är
avstängd. Detta kallas för beredskapsläge och i detta
tillstånd konsumerar apparaten minimalt med ström.
L’unità non è scollegata dall’impianto elettrico di casa
sintanto che rimane collegata ad una presa di corrente
anche se è spenta. Questo modo viene chiamato “modo
di attesa”. In esso, l’unità consuma una quantità molto
bassa di energia per mantenere in memoria le impostazioni
da voi fatte.
Aunque el propio aparato se encuentre apagado, éste no
se desconectará de la fuente de CA siempre que se
mantenga enchufado a la toma de corriente. Este estado
recibe el nombre de “modo de espera”. En este estado,
este aparato ha sido diseñado para consumir una cantidad
muy pequeña de energía.

• Depending on the equipment you wish
to connect, there are various ways you
could connect this unit. 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 this unit via your VCR.
The video quality could be distorted by
the copy protection system.
• Do not connect this unit’s audio out
jack to the phono in jack of your audio
system.
This unit 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).
You will need to set this unit’s digital
output to ALL (see page 20
“DIGITAL OUTPUT”).

Preparation
If your AV receiver has video output jacks,
connect your receiver (and then to 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.
The player has three types of video output
jacks. Use one of them in accordance with
the input jacks of the equipment to be
connected.
S-Video terminal <A>
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 <B>
Use audio/video cable supplied with this
unit when connecting the player to a TV.
Component Video terminal <C>
Component video connection achieves
high fidelity in reproducing colors (better
performance than S-video connection),
separating video signal into luminance (Y,
terminal color-coded as green), and color
difference (Pb, blue/Pr, red). 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.
Note:
– You need to set this unit’s component
output to YUV (see page 23 “Switching the
YUV/RGB”).
SCART Connection <D>
If your TV has only terminal for video
input, and you want to connect it directly
to this unit, you can use this unit’s SCART
output jack.
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.

not work for such Discs.

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.

posed of several chapters. Each chapter is assigned a
chapter number enabling you to locate the chapter
you want.
