Introduction
Precautions
Installation
•Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor
too cold—between 5°C and 35°C.
•Install the System in a location with adequate ventilation to
prevent internal heat buildup inside the System.
• Leave sufficient distance between the System and the TV.
• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference
with TV.
Power sources
• When unplugging the System from the wall outlet, always
pull on the plug, not the AC power cord.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lenses inside the System in
the following cases:
• After starting to heat the room
• In a damp room
• If the System is brought directly from a cold to a warm
place.
Should this occur, the System may malfunction. In this case,
leave the System turned on for a few hours until the moisture
evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, then plug it in again.
Internal heat
• A cooling fan is mounted on the rear panel to prevent heat
buildup inside the main unit (see page G-2).
Others
• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the System,
unplug the AC power cord and consult your dealer before
operating any further.
• If you are not going to operate the System for an extended
period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall
outlet.
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and
consult your dealer.
How to Read This Manual
To make in this manual as simple and easy-to-understand as
possible, we have adapted the following methods:
• Button and control operations are explained as listed in the
table below. In this manual, the operations using the remote
control is mainly explained; however, you can use the
buttons and controls on the main unit if they have the same
(or similar) name and marks
.
• Some related tips and notes are explained later in the
sections “Learning More about This System” (on
pages 40 to 42) and “Troubleshooting” (on page 44), but
not in the same section explaining the operations.
If you
want to know more about the functions, or if you have a
doubt about the functions, go to these sections and you will
find the answers.
DO NOT install the System in a location
near heat sources, or in a place subject to
direct sunlight, excessive dust or vibration.
DO NOT handle the AC power cord with
wet hands.
For safety, observe the following carefully:
•Make sure there is good ventilation around
the main unit. Poor ventilation could
overheat and damage the System.
• DO NOT block the cooling fan and the
ventilation openings or holes. If they are
blocked by a newspaper or cloth, etc., the
heat may not be able to get out.
DO NOT disassemble the System since there
are no user serviceable parts inside.
Indicates that you press the button
briefly
.
Indicates that you press the button
briefly and repeatedly until an
option you want is selected.
Indicates that you press one of the
buttons.
Indicates that you
press and hold
the
button for a specified period.
• The number inside the arrow
indicates the period of press (in this
example, 2 seconds).
• If no number is inside the arrow,
press and hold until the entire
procedure is complete or until you
get a result you want.
Indicates that you turn the control
toward the specified direction(s).
Indicates that this operation is only
possible using the remote control.
Indicates that this operation is only
possible using the buttons and controls on
the main unit.

Step 1:Unpack the package and
check the accessories.
Step 2: Prepare the remote control.
Step 3:Hook up the components such
as AM/FM antennas, speakers,
etc. (see pages 4 to 6).

To assemble and connect the AM loop antenna
To assemble the AM loop antenna
To connect the AM loop antenna
• If the AM loop antenna wire or speaker cords are covered
with vinyl, remove the vinyl to expose the tip of the
antenna by twisting the vinyl.
• Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other
terminals, connecting cords and power cord. Also, keep the
antennas away from metallic parts of the System,
connecting cords, and the AC power cord. This could cause
poor reception.
To connect the speaker cords
Connect the right speaker to the R terminals, and the left
speaker to the L terminals.
When connecting the speaker cords, match the polarity of
the speaker terminals: gray cord (+) to red (+) and gray cord
with black stripe (–) to black (–).
To set the video output selector
You can select the video output to match it to the color
system of your TV.
Adjusting the voltage selector
Use a screwdriver to slide the voltage selector so that the
voltage marker is pointing at the same voltage as where you
are plugging in the unit. (See also the back cover page.)
Changing the Scanning Mode
This System supports progressive scanning.
If you connect a progressive TV through the COMPONENT
jacks, you can enjoy a high quality picture from the built-in
DVD player by selecting progressive mode.
• DO NOT connect more than one speaker to
each terminal.
•DO NOT allow the conductor of the speaker
cords to be in touch with the metallic parts of
the System.

Before Operating the System
Playable Disc Types
This System has been designed to play back the following
discs:
In addition to the above discs, this System can play back DVD-
ROM and audio data recorded on CD Text, CD-G (CD
Graphics), and CD-Extra.
• It is possible to play back finalized +R/+RW (DVD video
format only) discs. “DVD” appears to the display when a +R/
+RW disc is loaded.
• The following discs cannot be played back:
CD-I (CD-I Ready), CD-ROM, Photo CD, SACD, etc.
Playing back these discs will generate noise and damage the
speakers.
• DVD Video/DVD-VR comprises “
Titles/Playlists ” which
includes “
Chapters .” DVD Audio/MP3/JPEG comprises
“
Groups / Folders ” which includes “ Tracks/Files .” CD/
SVCD/VCD comprises only “
Tracks .”
•In this manual, “file” and “track” are interchangeably used for
MP3/JPEG operations.
* Note on Region Code
DVD players and DVDs have their own Region Code numbers.
This System can play back only DVDs recorded with the NTSC
or PAL color system whose Region Code numbers including “2.”
If a DVD with the improper Region Code numbers is loaded,
“RGN ERR (REGION CODE ERROR)” appears on the display
and playback will not start.
Caution for DualDisc playback:
The Non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does not comply with the
“Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard. Therefore, the use of
Non-DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be
recommended.
DVD Video—digital audio formats
The System can play back the following digital audio
formats.
•
Linear PCM:
Uncompressed digital audio, the same
format used for CDs and most studio masters.
•
Dolby Digital:
Compressed digital audio, developed by
Dolby Laboratories, which enables multi-channel encode
to create the realistic surround sound.
•
DTS (Digital Theater Systems):
Compressed digital
audio, developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc., which
enables multi-channel like Dolby Digital. As the
compression ratio is lower than for Dolby Digital, it
provides wider dynamic range and better separation.
When playing a multi-channel encoded DVD, the System
properly converts these multi-channel signals into 2
channels, and emits the downmixed sound from the
speakers.
•
To enjoy the powerful sound of these multi-channel
encoded DVDs,
connect a proper decoder or an amplifier
with a proper built-in decoder to the digital output terminal
on the rear.
