GETTING STARTED

SWITCHING ON

After making sure that everything is connected properly and that the player is plugged in, press the POWER button on the front panel to turn the player on. Turn on your TV and make sure that it is set to the correct input for the DVD 7.

The front panel POWER button switches the player ON and OFF. When the player is OFF, it can only be turned back on using the front panel button or the ON button on the remote control. When the player is ON, you can put it into STANDBY using the POWER button on the remote control handset or the front panel button.

USING THE ON-SCREEN DISPLAYS

For ease of use, this player makes extensive use of graphical on-screen displays (OSDs). Familiarize yourself with the way these work as you'll need to use them when setting up the player, or when using some of the playback features and making more advanced settings for audio and video.

The screens are navigated in a similar way, using the cursor buttons to change the highlighted item and pressing ENTER to select it.

CHANGING SETTINGS TO MATCH YOUR TV

Using the SETUP menu, you can determine the settings that best fit your TV and system. Press the SETUP button. Use the UP , DOWN , LEFT , and RIGHT cursors buttons to select the desired setting.

1. Select VIDEO SETUP.

2.Select TV DISPLAY.

If you have a widescreen or 16x9 TV, select the Wide setting. Widescreen DVD software is shown using the full screen area. When playing software recorded in conventional (FS or full screen, 4x3) format, the settings on your TV will determine how the material is presented. See the manual that came with your TV for details on what options are available.

If you have a conventional or 4x3 TV, select either NORMAL (Letter Box) or NORMAL (Pan & Scan). In Letter Box mode, widescreen software is shown with black bars at the top and bottom of the screen. Pan and Scan chops the sides off of widescreen material to make it fit the NORMAL screen (so even though the image looks larger on the screen, you're actually seeing less of the picture). Press ENTER to save the setting.
