•Plug in cables securely to prevent unwanted noise.

•Refer to the instructions supplied with the components to be connected.

•You cannot connect this player to a TV that does not have a video input jack.

•Do not apply too much pressure on the connecting cables. Pushing against the cabinet wall, etc., may damage the cables or jacks.

To connect to a TV with DVI input

Use an HDMI-DVI converter cable (not supplied). The DVI jack will not accept any audio signals, so you have to use another audio connection in addition to this connection (page 19).

Furthermore, you cannot connect the HDMI OUT jack to DVI jacks that are not HDCP compliant (e.g., DVI jacks on PC displays).
