Switching on the system

1After completing all the connections, connect the AC power cord of the player and subwoofer to the wall outlet.

2Press POWER to switch on the last selected source.

3Adjust the SOURCE button (or press DVD/CD, TV/AV, TUNER, CDR, AUX, SAT or VCR) to select the input source.

➜ The selected source will be displayed.

●For viewing a DVD disc, a TV set needs to be connected (refer to “Connections - Connecting a TV”).

Switch on the TV and set to the correct video in channel (for example, EXT1, EXT2, AV1, AV2). Refer to your TV instruction manual for detail.

➜ The default screen appears on the TV.

NTSC/PAL automatic conversion

This player is equipped with an NTSC/PAL automatic conversion feature that converts the video output of the disc to match your TV system (NTSC) automatically. For example, you are able to play a PAL disc on an NTSC system TV.

Setting up the surround sound system

You must connect all the speakers and set up the system properly in order to enjoy the Digital Cinema experience at home (refer to “Connections - Connecting the speakers”). You will have the feeling of being in the middle of the action because sound is coming from everywhere around you. The subwoofer can enhance the bass performance of your system dramatically.

IMPORTANT!

–Please sit at your usual listening position in order to set up the speaker balance correctly.

–To change the surround sound settings, the DVD system must be in a surround mode that uses all the speakers (for example, Dolby Digital).

Placing the speakers

To obtain the best surround effect, place the speaker as follows.

1Place the front left and right speakers at equal distances from the TV and at an angle of approximately 45 degrees from the listening position.

2Place the center speaker above or below the TV, so the center channel’s sound is localized.

3Place the surround speakers at normal listening ear level facing each other or mounted on the wall.

4Place the subwoofer on the floor near to the TV. Notes:

–To avoid magnetic interference, do not position the front speakers too close to your TV.

–If the rear surround speakers are installed farther away from the listening position than the front and center speakers, it will weaken the surround effect.

–All speakers should be securely installed to prevent accidents and improve sound quality.
