Connections (continued)

Do not turn on the power until you complete the connection.

For the locations of the remote control buttons, refer to page 11.

After connecting the DVD player to the TV, select the video signal type correctly according to the TV.

1 Slide the remote control mode selector to DVD.

2 Make sure that playback stops. (If a disc is being played back, press 7 to stop playback.)

3 Press SCAN MODE.

• The current video signal type will flash.

4 Press 2, 3 (cursor) to select the video signal type suitable for the TV.

•You can select “INTERLACE” or “PROGRESSIVE”. You can obtain better picture quality in the “PROGRESSIVE” mode than in the “INTERLACE” mode. When you select “INTERLACE”, the image is displayed alternating between half of the scanned lines in the “PROGRESSIVE” mode and the other half of the scanned lines. The way of displaying the image is a conventional video signal type.

•Select “INTERLACE” when a TV only compatible with interlaced video signals is connected to the DVD player.

•Select “PROGRESSIVE” when a TV equipped with a component terminal and compatible with progressive video signals is connected to the DVD player. When you select “PROGRESSIVE”, the image is displayed with all scanned lines at the same time. The image has a higher resolution than that in the “INTERLACE” mode.

5 Press ENTER.

•The selected video signal type is displayed for a short time.

NOTE

•Although the picture may be distorted when you press ENTER, this is not a malfunction of the system.

•There are some progressive TVs and high-definition TVs that are not fully compatible with this system, resulting in an unnatural picture when playing back a DVD VIDEO with progressive scanning. In this case, change the scan mode to “INTERLACE”.

•To check the compatibility of your TV, contact your local JVC customer service center.

•All JVC-manufactured progressive TVs and high- definition TVs are fully compatible with this system.

•Even if the power cord of the DVD player is disconnected from the AC outlet or the power is interrupted, the video signal type setting is stored.

CAUTION

•Do not connect an S-video cord and a component video cord at the same time. Otherwise pictures may not be played back properly.

•Connect the DVD player directly to a TV (or a monitor) without routing through a video cassette recorder (VCR). Otherwise picture distortion may occur during playback.
