ºWhen you have finished connecting the unit

Change the unit’s settings to suit your television’s aspect ratio (➡ “Selecting TV screen type”, page 21). You do not have to change this setting if you have a television with a regular 4:3 aspect.

Connect Your Unit Directly To Your Television.

Do not connect the unit through your video cassette recorder when setting up your home entertainment system, because the picture may not be played correctly due to the copy guard.

ºUpgrading your system

To enjoy CATV broadcasts

See “Expanding your home theater system” on page 75.

(A contract with a cable TV company is required in most cases to view these broadcasts.)

To enjoy sound through other audio equipment

You can output digital signals from this unit’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal, enabling you to enjoy the powerful surround effects found on discs recorded with Dolby Digital or DTS. Connect an amplifier with built-in decoders. See page 78 for connection examples.
