■Setting the TV System (Other than North American model)

The default setting of the DVD Receiver is AUTO, and unless you notice that the picture is distorted when playing some discs, you should leave it set to AUTO.

If you experience picture distortion with some discs, set the TV system to match your country or region’s system. Doing this, however, may restrict the kinds of disc you can watch. The table below shows what kinds of disc are compatible with each setting (AUTO, PAL and NTSC).

Disc				Output format
Type	Format		Position of TV SYSTEM mode
		NTSC		PAL	AUTO
DVD	NTSC	NTSC		MOD. PAL	NTSC
	PAL			PAL	PAL
Video CD	NTSC	NTSC		MOD. PAL	NTSC
	PAL	NTSC		PAL	PAL
CD, No disc		NTSC		PAL	NTSC or PAL

2Hold down ¢ then press STANDBY/ON until the display indicates the new setting to switch the TV system.

The TV system changes as follows:

AUTO =	NTSC
NTSC =	PAL
PAL =	AUTO

Note that you have to switch the player into standby before each change.

About MOD. (Modulation) PAL

•SHRINK

Most models of the newly developed countdown PAL TV system detect 50 Hz (PAL)/60 Hz (NTSC) and automatically switch vertical amplitude, resulting in a display without vertical shrinkage.

•If your PAL TV does not have a V-Hold control, you may not be able to view NTSC disc because the picture may roll. If the TV has a V-Hold control, adjust it until the picture stops rolling. On some TVs, the picture may shrink vertically, leaving black bands at the top and bottom of the screen. This is not a malfunction; it is caused by the NTSC = PAL conversion.
