Notes on playing the DTS sound tracks on a CD

•Do not play the DTS sound tracks without connecting the player to an audio component having a built-in DTS decoder. The player outputs the DTS signal via the DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL and COAXIAL connectors even if “DTS” in “AUDIO SETUP” is set to “OFF” in the setup display, affecting your ears or causing the speakers to be damaged.

•The DTS indicator on the front panel does not light up even if the player outputs DTS signal via the DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL and COAXIAL connectors.

•Set the sounds to “STEREO” when you play the DTS sound tracks on a CD. (See “Changing the Sounds” on page 31.) If you set the sounds to “1/L” or “2/R,” no sounds will come out from the DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL and COAXIAL connectors.

Notes on playing the DTS sound tracks on a DVD

•No sounds will come out from the LINE OUT (AUDIO) and PHONES connectors.

•If the player is connected to an audio component lacking a built-in DTS decoder, do not set “DTS” in “DIGITAL OUT” to “ON” in the setup display. Otherwise, when you play the DTS sound track, a loud noise will come out from the speakers, affecting your ears or causing the speakers to be damaged.

•When you set “DTS” in “AUDIO SETUP” to “OFF,” no sound will come out from the DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL and COAXIAL connectors even if you play DTS sound tracks on DVDs.

•The DTS indicator on the front panel display lights up when you play DTS sound tracks.
