CONNECTIONS

The following show examples of connections commonly used to connect the DVD player to TV and other com- ponents.

If using this DVD player to playback a DVD in a Dolby Digital 5.1 channel surround or DTS surround format, the DVD player outputs a Dolby Digital or DTS data stream from its OPTICAL or COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jacks. By hooking the player up to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder, you can enjoy more convincing, realistic ambience with powerful and high-quality surround sound of a professional standard which can be heard in movie theaters. Use an audio coaxial or optical digital cable (not included) for the audio connections.

NOTES:

•Be sure to turn off the power to all components in the system before connecting another component.

•Refer to the Instruction Manuals for your TV, stereo system and any other components to be connected to the DVD player.

NOTES:

•When using Dolby Digital or DTS decoder, set “DOLBY DIGITAL” or “DTS” to “ON” accordingly for audio output in the setup mode (Refer to page 24). Set it to “OFF” for the decoder that is not used currently. Playing a DVD using incorrect settings may generate noise distortion, and may also damage the speakers.

•The audio source on a disc in Dolby Digital 5.1 channel surround format cannot be recorded as digital sound by an MD or DAT deck.

•Set “DOLBY DIGITAL” or “DTS” to “OFF” for audio output in the setup mode for method 1 only. Playing a DVD using incorrect settings may generate noise distortion, and may also damage the speakers. (Refer to page 24.)

Optical cable (not supplied)

•Optical cable (not supplied) may be damaged when bent at sharp angles. Ensure cables are coiled in loops with a diame- ter of 15 cm or more when storing them.

•Use a cable which is 3m or shorter.

•Insert cable plugs firmly into the connectors when making connections.

•If a plug has minor scratches or is dirty, clean it with a soft cloth before inserting it into a connector.
