ºUpgrading your television

³You can connect CRT projectors, LCD projectors, and projection televisions. ³See “Connection to a television” (á pages 12 and 13) for details on connection.

Note

³The equipment connections described are examples.

³Peripheral equipment and optional cables sold separately unless otherwise indicated.

ºBefore connections

³Ensure that this player and other equipment to be connected are switched to the standby mode or off and disconnect the AC power supply cord before commencing connection.

³Do not block ventilation holes of any of the equipment and arrange them so that air can circulate freely. ³Read through the instructions before connecting other equipment.

³Ensure that you observe the color coding when connecting audio and video cables.

Note

³TV volume may be lower when playing DVDs than during television broadcasts. Turn the volume up while playing DVDs and reduce it to the previous level before switching the source back to television to avoid sudden changes in volume.

³When you have finished connection, select the appropriate screen type at the initial setting “6 TV Aspect” according to your television (4:3/16:9) (á page 31). No changes are needed if you connect the player to a conventional television (4:3).

Conserving power

³The unit consumes approx. 2.0 W even when it is turned off with [STANDBY/ON]. To save power when the unit is not to be used for a long time, unplug it from the household AC outlet.
