Player Zones
Anti-Copy Disc Protection
Installation
DVD Discs
For the purpose of distribution of DVD Discs, the world has been separated into 6
zones. The zone your unit is intended for is indicated on the Zone Label. This should
be the same as the label on discs available in your region. If you have any difficulties in
playing a disc, make sure that the disc is for the same zone as your player.
Some DVD discs have anti-copying devices.
With these discs the playback on a Television will give the highest quality picture, however you will not be able to
record this signal on a VCR.
Install your unit on a stable flat surface. There must be sufficient room in front of the unit for the drawer to be
opened and the unit should be positioned so that it can see the remote control.
Do not expose your unit to extremes of temperature or humidity. Avoid standing it on a hot surface such as on
top of other hot running equipment and ensure that there is adequate ventilation to the unit.
* Caution : Do not install this equipment in confined space such as a book case or similar unit!
There are several types of DVD Disc.
Single sided discs. They play for approximately 2 HOURS
Single sided two layer discs. They play for approximately 4 HOURS
Double sided discs. They play for approximately 4 HOURS
Double sided with 2 layers on both sides. They play for approximately 8 HOURS
DVD discs have Titles and Chapters. There can be several Titles on one disc and each Title can contain several
Chapters. Titles and Chapters are numbered, e.g. Title 1, Title 2 etc. & Chapter 1,2,3 etc.
Usually Title one will show the disc publisher and studio
logos. The next Title will be the film. Other Titles
contain trailers for other films, production notes, or
alternative endings for the film. There are many
possibilities with Digital Versatile Disc. Chapters within
the main Title allow you to search quickly for a specific
point on the disc. Many discs have a Chapter Menu
sometimes called Scene Index or Scene Menu that
displays the first shot from each Chapter, which allows
you to select a shot and play the disc from that point
onwards. DVD discs can be PAL or NTSC. This player
can play both types (if the player zone is correct).
DVD discs allow up to 8 Languages and 32 subtitles on a single disc. You can select and change the language
and subtitle to suit yourself and play the whole disc or just part of it and view it from different angles.
Picture freezing & sound skipping or repeating can occur if the disc inside the player is dirty.
• When a disc becomes dirty, clean it with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the center out.
• Do not wipe in a circular motion. Circular scratches can cause picture distortion or render the disc
unplayable.
CAUTION - Do not use solvents, commercially viable cleaners, or
antistatic spray intended for analog discs.

The placement of speakers is very an important in the reproduction of surround sound. Particular attention
should be taken when designing the speaker layout. For the best surround effects, all speakers should be
installed.
A typical room layout should have the front left, front right and center placed along the front. The surround left
and surround right along the side towards the rear. The suround back speaker should be placed behind the
listener as shown in the above left picture. The center speaker can be placed above or below the video screen
or TV. The subwoofer can be installed for powerful bass sounds and can be placed anywhere in the room.
The speaker to listener dimensions shown in the above right picture is used for proper setup of the surround
system ( Please refer to Speaker Setup on P.16 ).

Distance
You can specify the distance (changing the sound delay) between
speakers (front, center and surround speakers) and the listener for
optimal stereo sound.
The default distance is 10 feet for front and center speakers and 5
feet for surround speakers. Change the distance from 1 to 30 feet
according to your actual listening environment by pressing
and then OK.
Volume
You can make fine adjustment to the loudness of each speaker from -
10 to +10 dB. When this option is selected, a test noise will
generate automatically from each speaker, one by one. To go to the
next speaker manually, press .
Adjust loudness by pressing and press OK to
confirm setting and exit the menu.
Pro Logic II Mode
The additional flexibility of Pro Logic II allows it to be tailored for specific
applications. Five standard modes are available:
Pro Logic - It offers users the robust surround processing of the
original Pro Logic.
Virtual - It’s usually used when Pro Logic II is connected to a virtual
process for speaker use.
Music - It’s recommended as the standard mode for autosound
music systems (without video), and is optional for A/V
systems.
Movie - It can be called simply “Pro Logic II”. It has stereo surround
channels and no surround filter, unlike Pro Logic which has
a monosurround channels and a 7KHz surround filter. Movie
mode is the standard required for all A/V systems.
Matrix - It’s the same as the Music mode except that the
directional enhancement logic is turned off. It may be used
to enhance mono signals by making them seem “larger”.
Pro Logic II Control
PL II Control lets you to customize the Pro Logic II Music Mode Sound
Effect. The option is available only when the player is in Music Mode.
Dimension
A simple control that alters the ratio of L+R to L-R for the two-
channel input signals. It allows the user to gradually adjust the
soundfield either towards the front or towards the rear. If a
recording is too spacious or strong from the surrounds, it can be
adjusted “forward” to get a better balance. Likewise, if a stereo
recording is somewhat too “mono” or “narrow” sounding, it can be
adjusted toward the rear to get a more enveloping, immersing
result.

Panorama
Extends the front stereo image to include the surround
speakers for an exciting “wraparound” effect with side-wall
imaging.
Center Width Control
With Pro Logic decoding, dominant center signals can come
only from the center speaker. If no center speaker is present,
the decoder splits the center signals equally to the left and
right speakers to create a “phantom” center image. The
Center Width control allows variable adjustment of the
center image so it may be heard only from the center
speaker; only from the left/right speakers as a phantom
image; or from all three front speakers to varying degrees.
It’s recommended to set the control to use the position 3
values for the Music mode. This will also help distinguish the
Music mode from the Movie mode, which automatically
presets the Center-width control to position 0.
