Using the DVD setup menu system

In many places of this guide, the DVD player’s Setup Menu needs to be adjusted to match your specific audio/video configuration. To access the DVD player’s Setup Menu simply press the SETUP button on the remote control when the disc is stopped. When asking you to make menu adjustments, we will use the following terminology to indicate the location of the desired function:

Setup Menu Name > Menu Item > Submenu Item (or Selection)

Setup Menu Name is the actual name of the uppermost setup menu level. With the DVD89 Player there are exactly five (5) Setup Menu pages or sections, each represented by an icon on the top of the Setup Menu screen. They are: General Setup Page, Speaker Setup Page, Audio Setup Page, Video Setup Page, and Preference Page.

Menu Item is the parameter to be adjusted which appears below the Top Menu Name. It is the list of items on the left of the current Setup screen.

Submenu Item (or the selection) is the actual numeric or descriptive element that represents the change being made to the selected parameter. It is the item located to the immediate right of its corresponding Menu Item.

This diagram should give a good description of the various elements and their context. In this screen we could, for example, instruct you to set the Rear Speaker parameter to Small in the Speaker Setup Page. To indicate where we were, you would see the following: Speaker Setup Page > Rear Speaker > Small.

If an HDMI or DVI connection is present on your television or display, use it. The DVD89 player has an HDMI (digital) video output which presents the highest possible resolutions and video quality. If the television you are using has only component video inputs, then select a component video cable (it has three RCA-style connections on each end typically colored red, green, and blue). If your television is older and has neither of these inputs you may use s-video (a special 4-pin cable) or composite (typically a single yellow RCA-style cable).
