Replace it with a new battery as soon as possible.
• When inserting the batteries, be careful to do so in
the proper direction, following the and marks
in the remote control unit’s battery compartment.
• To prevent damage or battery fluid leakage:
• Do not use a new battery with an old one.
• Do not use two different types of batteries.
• Do not short-circuit, disassemble, heat or dispose
of batteries in flames.
• Remove the batteries when not planning to use the

CONNECTIONS
The following show examples of connections commonly used to connect the DVD player to a TV and other
components.
If using this DVD player to play back a DVD in the 5.1 channel Dolby Digital 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. 5.1 channel Dolby Digital Surround sound and DTS sound can also be output from the 5.1 CH
OUTPUT jacks. By connecting the player to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder, you can enjoy a more convincing,
realistic ambience with powerful and high-quality surround sound of a professional standard, similar to that
experienced cinemas. Use a coaxial or optical digital audio cable (not included) for the audio connections. Use
audio cables (commercially available) for the 5.1 CH audio connection.
Notes
¡Be sure to switch 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.
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.

copy protection system.
•S-Video output connector
The video signals are divided into color (C) and brightness (Y) signals, achieving a clearer picture.
If the TV is equipped with a S-Video input connector, we recommend connecting it to the this product’s S-Video output con-
nector using a commercially available S-Video connection cord.
•DVD-Audio and Super Audio CD sound is not output from the 2ch AUDIO OUT jacks and AV1 jacks.
HOW TO CONNECT TO A TV WITHOUT AUDIO/VIDEO INPUT JACKS
If your TV does not have RCA type audio and video input jacks it is still possible to connect this DVD
player to your TV’s 75-ohm coaxial antenna terminal using an optional Stereo Audio/Video RF Modulator, not includ-
ed. Connect the audio and video outputs of the DVD player to the audio and video inputs on the RF Modulator, and
then connect the coaxial output of the RF Modulator (usually marked “TO TV”) to the 75 ohm coaxial antenna termi-
nal on your TV. Follow the instruction supplied with the RF Modulator for more details.
If your TV’s 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal is already occupied by an antenna or cable box connection, remove
that cable from your TV’s antenna terminal and reconnect it to the coaxial antenna input terminal of the RF Modulator
(usually marked “ANT IN”), then connect the RF modulator to your TV’s antenna terminal as described above.
NOTE
•The picture quality from DVD discs will not be as good if the DVD player is connected to the TV’s antenna terminal
through an RF Modulator.
