Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your musi-
cal enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment
offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group want
you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come
through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion—and, most importantly, without affecting
your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound.
So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting
your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
•Start your volume control at a low setting.
•Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
•Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we
want you listening for a lifetime.
We Want You Listening For A Lifetime
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing
damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic
Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to
excessive noise. This list of sound levels is included for your protection.
Decibel
Level Example
30 Quiet library, soft whispers
40 Living room, refrigerator, bedroom away from traffic
50 Light traffic, normal conversation, quiet office
60 Air conditioner at 20 feet, sewing machine
70 Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant
80 Average city traffic, garbage disposals, alarm clock at two feet.
THE FOLLOWING NOISES CAN BE DANGEROUS UNDER CONSTANT EXPOSURE
90 Subway, motorcycle, truck traffic, lawn mower
100 Garbage truck, chain saw, pneumatic drill
120 Rock band concert in front of speakers, thunderclap
140 Gunshot blast, jet plane
180 Rocket launching pad

out appropriate authorization may invalidate

About this manual
This unit features a number of sophisticated

explanatory. This operation manual will help you

ing through the manual before you begin using
this unit. It is especially important that you read

operation. However, in addition to those func-
tions related with DVD/video CD/CD operation

Disc organization
DVD
On DVD-Video discs, the contents are divided
into titles which are in turn divided into chap-
ters.
With video material, a single work (movie etc.)
usually corresponds to a single title, with differ-
ent scenes corresponding to separate chapters.
With karaoke discs, one song corresponds to
one title.
However, some discs are not organized like this,
so bear this in mind when using the search
function.
Video CD and CD
On CDs and Video CDs, the contents are divided
into tracks. One track usually corresponds to
one song. On some discs, tracks may also fea-
ture an index.
With Video CDs featuring PBC (Playback
Control), you can use a menu to perform play-
back operations. It may not be possible to use
functions such as repeat and search.
