About this Manual
The operation described here mainly refers to the use of the remote control handset (R/C).
Buttons with same or similar marking at the main unit have the same function like those of
the R/C.
If the message “Invalid Key” is displayed on the monitor while you press a key, that function
requested is not supported by the media type inserted.
Many Disc Formats are supported
DVD-Video RCD/DVD±R(W) RVCD R
SVCD RCD Audio RMP3 / WMA R
HDCD RCDG RJPEG Foto CD R
Important Information
ØUsually the unit plays CD-R, CD-RW, MP3 discs as well as “burned” DVDs. But
due to the variety of blank disc types, recording computers, operating systems
and burning software we cannot guarantee that every “burned disc” is
playable. The unit does not play DVD-ROM, CD-ROM etc. and does not support
playback of files which are subject to the Digital Rights Managements (DRM).
ØThe types of functions and operations that can be used for a particular disc vary
depending on the features of that disc. In some cases, these functions and operations
may differ from the descriptions given in this Operations Manual. In this event, follow the
instructions given on the screen and on the sleeve of the disc.
ØThe built-in display uses a vast number of pixels. Brighter or darker pixels are common
and no defects.
Comments on the copyright
This product incorporates copyright protection technology that is protected by method
claims of certain US patents and other intellectual property rights owned by Macrovision
Corporation and other rights owners. Use of this copyright protection technology must be
authorized by Macrovision Corporation, and is intended for home and other limited viewing
uses only unless otherwise authorized by Macrovision Corporation. Reverse engineering or

Region Management Information
This DVD player is designed and manufactured to respond to the region
management information that is recorded on a DVD disc. If the region number
described on the DVD disc does not correspond to the Region number of this
DVD player, this DVD player cannot play this disc. The region number for this
DVD player is “2”.
Please note for a better understanding of this manual that the program of a DVD may be
divided into several “titles” (e.g. main movie, bonus material, interviews etc.). Each of
these titles can be divided into “chapters”. The program of audio CD’s is divided into
“tracks”.

Before You Switch ON
Place of Use
ØFor operating the unit please always choose a location with sufficient air circulation
around. That prevents overheating. Don’t expose the unit to direct sunlight or other heat
sources.
ØThe product must be positioned horizontally only. Don’t put any heavy objects on its
housing.
ØTo protect the laser unit avoid dusty surroundings. If necessary, please use a cleansing
disc carefully following its operating instructions.
Condensing Moisture
In these cases water may be condensing on the laser lens causing malfunction:
ØThe unit is suddenly brought from a cold to a warm surrounding.
=> Please take out the disc and wait for about
an hour, until the unit has warmed.
ØThe unit is operated in a very humid surrounding.
=> Please choose a location with lower humidity.
Handling Disc’s
ØIn order to keep the disc clean please never touch its shiny
surface.
ØNever put any sticker or adhesive label on the disc. Imbalance would occur and cause
malfunction.
ØDont expose discs to direct sunlight or other heat sources.
ØPlease store the discs only in their sleeves.
Cleaning a Disc
To clean a disc use a soft cloth without any cleaning agent, liquid or solvent.
Only wipe from the centre hole towards the outer edge, never in circular
movement.

Using the Remote Control Handset
1. The remote control uses a pre-installed NiMH type battery. To
prevent an anticipated discharge of the battery, we’ve inserted
an insulating strip. Please pull it out prior to first operation.
Should the r/c start to work unreliably replace the battery with
a new one of the same type (Cr2025). Open the battery
compartment. Push the retention clip in the direction of arrow
and pull out the battery mounting.
2. Before you take out the empty battery, please memorise its
position. The “+” marking must show upwards, otherwise the
r/c will not work and may be damaged.
3. Please point the r/c towards the main unit when operating its
buttons. The r/c works properly in a distance below 6m and in
an angle of up to 30° of the front of the unit. No obstacles may
stand in the way between r/c and infrared sensor.
ØBatteries should not be disposed by ordinary refuse disposal. Please lead
empty batteries towards appropriate collecting points. Never throw batteries
into fire.
ØIf you won’t use the r/c for some time, please remove the battery from the compartment,
to prevent damage by leakage.

Hook up
Important information:- All cables shown or mentioned here are not
supplied with your DVD player (unless expressly stated).
You’ll find them at your TV shop.
- Please switch off all equipment involved before
making any connections. This will protect your
speakers from possible damage.
1. You can connect headphones to the EARPHONES port on the right side of the unit
(3.5mm jack). This will switch off the built-in speakers. Please make sure not to damage
your hearing. Be careful with regard to your hearing. A too high volume may
lastingly impair the hearing ability of your ears.
2. Despite the player has a screen, you can connect it with an external TV device. In doing
so, use the enclosed special cable for connecting the A/V out to the video and audio ins of
the TV set: The yellow plug transmits the video signal, the other two the audio signal
(red = right stereo channel, white = left stereo channel). You can alternatively play the
sound via a stereo amplifier.
3. Connect the cable of the supplied mains adapter or the cigarette lighter to the 9V DC IN port.
Memory card slot / USB memory device
Your DVP-198 can also playback suitable multi-media files on memory cards which you can
insert in the slot on the right side of the device. This is suitable only for the following types of
memory cards:
SD card (Secure Digital Card)
Multimedia card (MMC),
MS card (Sony memory stick)
To the right, next to the card slot, there is a USB connection where you can connect USB
storage devices of the type “USB Mass Storage Devices”. External hard disks or USB hubs
cannot be connected.
ØNever try to insert cards different from those mentioned in here into the slot!
ØMake sure that you insert the cards in the correct manner. Never use force.
ØMedia files of MP3, WMA, JPEG and MPEG formats can be played by inserting
cards.
If required, remove the disc, close the disc tray and connect the desired memory device
with the suitable slot or connection. The device automatically looks for suitable media files.
A main menu appears in which files or directories are listed on the left. You can navigate this
menu using the 3456 buttons. In case image, video and sound files are on the medium,
the files of one file type are listed only. You can chose the desired category by selecting the
buttons of the desired category with the navigation keys and activate it with the ENTER
button.
Tip: If the unit recognises both memory card and USB device after switching on it will play
back the USB medium. To select the other memory device just disconnect the unwanted
medium from the unit.
