Before Use (Continued)
Precautions
Handling the unit
When shipping the unit
The original shipping carton and packing materials
come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the
unit as it was originally packaged at the factory.
When setting up the unit
The picture and sound of a nearby T , CR, or radio
may be distorted during playback. In this case, position
the unit away from the T , CR, or radio, or turn off the
unit after removing the disc.
To keep the surface clean
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray,
near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in
contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will
leave marks on the surface.
Cleaning the unit
To clean the cabinet
Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty,
use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent
solution. Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol,
benzine, or thinner, as these might damage the surface
of the unit.
To obtain a clear picture
The D D+ CR is a high-tech, precision device. If the
optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or
worn, the picture quality will be poor.
Regular inspection and maintenance are recommended
after every 1,000 hours of use. (This depends on the
operating environment.)
For details, please contact your nearest dealer.
Notes on Discs
Handling discs
Do not touch the playback side of the disc.
Hold the disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not
get on the surface.
Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.
Storing discs
After playing, store the disc in its case.
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of
heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct sun-
light, as there may be a considerable temperature
increase inside the car.
Cleaning discs
Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor pic-
ture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean
the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the cen-
ter out.
Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine,
thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static
spray intended for older vinyl records.

LANGUAGE SELECT can be switched among ENGLISH,
SPANISH and FRENCH by using b/B.
AUDIO MODE
The D D+ CR has two separate audio playback systems, the
high quality HS Hi-Fi system and standard NORMAL mono
system. The same audio is generally recorded on both
systems. The HS Hi-Fi system plays on separate (left and
right) channels, and the NORMAL system plays monaural
sound. The normal track is always played so the cassette can
be played on a D D+ CR that does not have HS Hi-Fi.
AUDIO MODE can be switched between HI-FI and
NORMAL by using b/B.
BROADCAST TYPE (STEREO/SAP/MONO)
Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) carries stereo and/or
Second Audio Program (SAP) bilingual signals. Set this display to
the desired position when both MTS stereo and SAP signals are
received. When only one of the MTS signal is received, the
D D+ CR automatically selects the corresponding receiving
mode (Stereo or SAP) regardless of the selected position. For
normal operation, the display should be in the STEREO position.
The D D+ CR will then record a STEREO program when available,
and record a mono program IF the program is NOT IN STEREO.
For weak STEREO and/or SAP broadcasts, changing the dis-
play to mono may give clearer sound.
BROADCAST TYPE can be switched among STEREO, SAP,
and MONO by using b/B.
AUDIO OUTPUT (STEREO/LEFT/RIGHT)
Used during playback [when AUDIO MODE (HI-FI/NORMAL) is
in HI-FI position] for selecting the audio output signals from the
AUDIO OUT terminals (L ch and R ch), and RF.OUT.
This display setting should normally be left in the stereo posi-
tion, so that when a stereo tape is played, the stereo sound will
be heard through the left and right channels. If a mono tape is
played and the audio output is set to stereo, the same mono
sound will be heard from both left and right channels.
AUDIO OUTPUT can be switched among STEREO, LEFT,

Digital Audio Output
Each D D disc has a variety of audio output options.
Set the D D+ CR’s Digital Audio Output according to
the type of audio system you use.
DOLBY DIGITAL/PCM: Select DOLBY DIGITAL/PCM if
you have connected the D D+ CR’s DIGITAL AUDIO
OUT jack to a Dolby Digital decoder (or an amplifier or
other equipment with a Dolby Digital decoder).
Stream/PCM: Select Stream/PCM if you have
connected the D D+ CR’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack
to an amplifier or other equipment with a DTS decoder,
Dolby Digital decoder or MPEG decoder.
PCM: Select when connected to a 2 channel digital
stereo amplifier. The D D+ CR outputs sounds in the
PCM 2ch format when you play a D D video disc
recorded with a Dolby Digital, MPEG1, or MPEG2
recording system.
Sample Frequency
To change the Sample Frequency setting, first select
the desired Digital Audio Output as indicated above.
If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of handling
96KHz signals, select 48KHz. When this choice is
made, this unit will automatically convert any 96KHz
signals to 48KHz so your system can decode them.
If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling
96KHz signals, select 96KHz. When this choice is
made, this unit will pass each type of signal through
without any further processing.
Others
The DRC, ocal and Auto Play settings can be
changed.
Use v/Vto select the desired option and press
SELECT/ENTER. The options can be turned On or
Off.
Dynamic Range Control (DRC)
With the D D format, you can hear a program’s sound-
track in the most accurate and realistic presentation
possible, thanks to digital audio technology. However,
you may wish to compress the dynamic range of the
audio output (the difference between the loudest sounds
and the quietest ones). Then, you may listen to a movie
at a lower volume without losing clarity of sound. Set
DRC to On for this effect.
Vocal
Set ocal to On only when a multi-channel karaoke
D D is playing. The karaoke channels on the disc will
mix into normal stereo sound.
Auto Play
You can set up the D D Player so a D D disc automat-
ically starts playing whenever the D D is inserted.
If Auto Play mode is set to On, this D D player will
search a title that playback time is long most and then
play back the title automatically.
On: Auto Play function is activated.
Off: Auto Play function is not activated.

Rating
Movies on D Ds may contain scenes not suitable for
children. Therefore, discs may contain Parental Control
information that applies to the complete disc or to
certain scenes on the disc. These scenes are rated
from 1 to 8, and alternatively, more suitable scenes are
available for selection on some discs. Ratings are
country dependent. The Parental Control feature allows
