NOTES:

The 3D Phonic function works correctly only when playing back a DVD VIDEO disc recorded in the Dolby Digital format. With other sources, you cannot get any effect if you activate 3D Phonic function.

When playing back a DVD VIDEO disc recorded with the Dolby Digital that does not contain the rear signal, you cannot get a correct 3D Phonic sound even if you activate 3D Phonic function.

The 3D Phonic function does not affect the Dolby Digital bitstream signal from the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT connector.

When you use the 3D Phonic function, it is not possible to set “DOWN MIX” or “COMPRESSION”. ( pg. 75)

To turn off the 3D Phonic display manually, press OK.

With a Video CD disc, if the Audio setting is set to L or R, you cannot activate the 3D Phonic function and the 3D Phonic mode is fixed to off.

Conversely, when the 3D Phonic function is activated, changing the audio setting to L or R from STEREO cancels the 3D Phonic function.
