The STANDBY/ON A button does not completely shut off
mains power from the unit, but switches operating current on and
off. ABB shows electrical power standby and ACB shows ON.
Moisture in the air will condense on the unit when you move it from
a cold place to a warm place, or under extremely humid
conditions^just as water droplets form on the surface of a glass
filled with cold liquid. In conditions where condensation may occur,
disconnect the unit’s power plug from the wall and keep it
disconnected for a few hours to let the moisture dry, then turn on
the unit.
When the equipment is installed in a cabinet or a shelf, make sure
that it has sufficient space on all sides to allow for ventilation
(10 cm or more on both sides, on top and at the rear).
When discarding batteries, environmental problems must be
considered and the local rules or laws governing the disposal of
these batteries must be followed strictly.

DISC INFORMATION
Care And Handling Of Discs
How to handle discs
When handling a disc, do not
touch the surface of the disc.
Since discs are made of
plastic, they are easily
damaged. If a disc gets dirty,
dusty, scratched or warped, the
images and sound will not be
picked up correctly, and such a
disc may cause the unit to malfunction.
Label side:
Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesives
on its surface.
Recording side:
Make sure that discs are not scratched and dirty on the recording
side before use. Scratches and dirt on the recording side of a disc
may hinder proper playback and recording. Also be careful that a
DVD-RAM disc may get scratched or dirty when removed from
cartridge then put back in after use.
Storage
Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled on
top of one another without their protective cases, they can be
damaged. Do not put discs in a location where they may be
exposed to direct sunlight, or in a place where the humidity or
temperature is high. Avoid leaving discs in your car!
Maintenance of discs:
If there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering
to a disc, wipe with a soft dry cloth, moving
from the center outwards.
If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a cloth
moistened with water. Never use record
cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any anti-static
agents.
CAUTION:
Sometimes during playback, noise may appear or images may
be garbled. This is sometimes due to the disc. (It may not be up
to industry standards.)
These symptoms are caused by the discs, not by the malfunction
of the unit.

● Place the satellite speakers on a flat and level surface.
● The front and center speakers are magnetically shielded to avoid
colour distortions on TVs. However, if not installed properly, they
may cause colour distortions. So, pay attention to the following
when installing the speakers.
^ When placing the speakers near a TV set, turn off the TV’s
main power switch or unplug it before installing the speakers.
Then wait at least 30 minutes before turning on the TV’s main
power switch again.

Some TV’s may still be affected even though you have followed
the above. If this happens, move the speakers away from the TV.
● The surround speakers are not magnetically shielded.
If it is located near the TV or monitor, it will probably cause colour
distortion on the screen. To avoid this, do not place the speaker
near the TV or monitor.
NOTE:
When connecting a video component such as a satellite receiver,
operate this system to listen to the sound.
● Be sure to place the powered subwoofer to the TV’s right. If you
place the powered subwoofer to the TV’s left, keep sufficient
distance between them to prevent the TV screen from appearing
mottled.
Connecting The Power Cord
Connect the AC plug only after all connections have been
completed.
● When installing the satellite speakers on the wall;
^ Be sure to have them installed on the wall by a qualified
personnel.
DO NOT install the satellite speakers on the wall by yourself to
avoid unexpected damage from their falling off the wall due to
incorrect installation or weakness in wall structure.
^ Care must be taken in selecting a location for speaker
installation on a wall. Injury to personnel or damage to
equipment may result if the speakers installed interfere with
daily activities.

NOTES:
● You can programme this unit to timer record, regardless of the
disc remaining time. When the disc remaining time is not enough,
it is not possible to record until the end of the timer programme.
Check the disc remaining time before performing timer
programming.
(Example) If you programmed to timer-record for 60 minutes in
SP mode on a 120 minutes disc, the disc remaining time would
be 30 minutes in XP mode, 60 minutes in SP mode, 120 minutes
in LP mode, 180 minutes in EP mode, and 240 minutes in FR480
mode. Timer recording will not complete beyond these remaining
times.
● The maximum recording time of FR (JUST) mode is the same as
the recording time of FR480 mode. When timer programming a
long programme in FR (JUST) mode on a disc whose remaining
time is short, it is recommended to check the disc remaining time
in FR480 mode to see if the remaining time is enough for the
programme.
● Even if more than one programme are timer programmed in FR
(JUST) mode, only the first one is recorded.
● In order to ensure that the recording fits on the disc, this feature
may leave a slight non-recorded section at the end of the disc.
● There may be some noise and sound disturbance at the point on
the disc where the unit switches the mode.

● DTS Digital Surround
DTS Digital Surround is used for CDs, LDs, DVDs etc. (This kind
of software bears the K mark.)
It is another discrete 5.1-channel digital audio format with lower
audio compression rate which enables it to add breadth and
depth to the sounds reproduced.
This system with its built-in DTS surround decoder enables
playing back of DTS digital surround video software.
Surround Mode
Reproducing Theatrical Atmosphere
In movie theatres, a number of speakers are located on the wall to
reproduce realistic sensation by means of calculated sound
effects, enabling sounds to be heard from all directions.
By locating a number of speakers encircling the audience seats,
localisation of sound and dynamism are remarkably improved.
This system, which makes use of 5 speakers and subwoofer can
reproduce the realistic sensation experienced in the movie
theatres at home.
● A
B lights when DTS signal is detected.
Digital Theater Systems, Inc. greatly improves the 360 degree
surround and spatial effects through DTS-ES with an additional
surround back channel.
DTS-ES includes two signal formats with different surround
signal recording methods^DTS-ES Discrete 6.1ch and DTS-ES
Matrix 6.1ch.
Surround Mode
● You can use Virtual Surround Back when playing back DTS-ES
software.
This function creates great surround effects from behind as if
Surround Back speakers are connected.
Dolby Surround
● Dolby Digital*
A multi-channel audio compression format used for DVDs. (This
kind of software bears the G mark.)
For Dolby Digital 5.1CH, the front left channel, front right channel,
center channel, rear left channel, rear right channel and
subwoofer channel, a total of 5.1 channels (subwoofer is counted
as 0.1 channel) each produces sound independently, thus
minimising interference between the channels and enabling
reproduction of stereo surround with better sound quality.
● DTS96/24
In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in higher
sampling rates for both recording and playback at home. Higher
sampling rates allow wider frequency range and greater bit
depths providing extended dynamic range.
DTS96/24 is a multi-channel digital signal format (fs 96 kHz/24
bits) adopted by Digital Theater Systems, Inc. to deliver Abetter-
than-CD sound qualityB into the home.
This system with its built-in Dolby Digital decoder allows you to
enjoy the Dolby Digital realistic sensation comparable to the
movie theatres and stage theatres.

Dolby Digital EX, which adds a surround back channel to the
conventional Dolby Digital 5.1CH, further enhances the realistic
sensation.
Linear PCM
Uncompressed digital audio data used for DVDs, CDs, and
Video CDs.
DVDs support 2 channels with sampling rates of 48/96 kHz, at
quantization of 16/20/24 bits.
On the other hand, CDs and Video CDs are limited to 2 channels
with 44.1 kHz at 16 bits.

8 How The Enhanced Other Network Function Actually
Works
Case 1
If there is no station broadcasting the programme you have
selected
The system continues tuning in to the current station.
E
When a station starts broadcasting the programme you have
selected, the system automatically switches to the station. The
indicator of received programme type code starts blinking.
E
When the programme is over, the system goes back to the
previously tuned station, but the Enhanced Other Network function
still remains activated.
Case 2
If the FM station you are listening to is broadcasting the
programme you have selected
The system continues to receive the station but the indicator of
received programme type code starts blinking.
E
When the programme is over, the indicator of received programme
type code stops blinking and remains lit, but the Enhanced Other
Network function still remains activated.
To stop listening to the programme selected by Enhanced
Other Network
Press TA/NEWS/INFO repeatedly again so that the programme
type indicator (TA/NEWS/INFO) goes off from the front display
panel. The system exits from Enhanced Other Network standby
mode and goes back to the previously selected station.

BASIC OPERATIONS ON DVD DECK
When an emergency broadcast (ALARM signal) is sent from
an FM station
The system automatically tunes in to the station and AALARMB
appears on the front display panel while the system is receiving the
emergency broadcast.
Note that an emergency broadcast cannot be received in the
following cases;
● When you are listening to non-radio data system stations (all AM
- MW stations, some FM stations and other sources).
● When the system is in standby mode.
The TEST signal is used to test whether the equipment can
receive the ALARM signal correctly
The TEST signal makes the system work in the same way as the
ALARM signal does. If the TEST signal is received, the system
automatically switches to the station broadcasting the TEST signal.
While receiving the TEST signal, ATESTB appears on the front
display panel.
NOTES:
● In Enhanced Other Network standby mode, if you change the
source to play, Enhanced Other Network standby mode is
cancelled temporarily.
If you change the source to FM again, the system returns to
Enhanced Other Network standby mode.
● Enhanced Other Network data sent from some stations may not
be compatible with this system.
● Enhanced Other Network does not function for some FM stations
with radio data system service.
● While listening to a programme tuned in by the Enhanced Other
Network function, the station does not change even if another
network station starts broadcasting a programme of the same
Enhanced Other Network data.
● While listening to a programme tuned in by the Enhanced Other
Network function, you can only use TA/NEWS/INFO and RDS
DISPLAY as the tuner operation buttons.

VPS/PDC Recording
Now available from some TV stations, PDC (Programme Delivery
Control) and VPS (Video Programme System) are services
designed to assure safe, accurate timer recording. With this
system, special code signals are transmitted together with the
audio/video signals. These code signals control your unit and have
precedence over the advertised times you may have preset into
the timer. This means that your unit will start and stop recording
when the preset TV programmes actually start and end^even if
the broadcast time of a preset TV programme is changed from
what has been advertised. PDC is currently available nationally on
BBC1, BBC2, Ch.4 and Ch.5, except from a few small relay
transmitters. Ch.3 operates a PDC service in some areas. All
channels intend to offer this service in due course. Check your TV
programme listing guide for latest information. If the channel you
intend to record does not offer a PDC service your unit will not start
recording if PDC has been selected. Be sure to set PDC to AOFFB if
PDC is not available on your selected channel. (See step 6 on
page 48.).

Recording
1 Set AL-2 SELECTB to ASAT VIDEO/RGBB or ASAT S-VIDEO/
RGBB. (A pg. 69)
● Also refer to AIMPORTANTB on page 70.
This function allows you to automatically record a satellite
programme which is timer programmed on your external satellite
receiver. Connect a satellite receiver to the unit’s [L-2 INPUT/
DECODER] connector and programme the timer on the satellite
receiver. The unit starts or stops recording by the signals input
from the satellite receiver. After recording, the unit’s power shuts
off automatically.
2 Press REC MODE repeatedly to set the recording mode.
3 Press and hold SATj for about 2 seconds to engage the
Automatic Satellite Programme Recording mode. AjB and AVB
appear on the front display panel and the unit turns off
automatically.

terrestrial receiver (Freeview receiver or similar), perform the
same steps as AAutomatic Satellite Programme RecordingB
(A pg. 53).
● To disengage the Automatic Satellite Programme Recording
mode, press SATj.
● If the unit’s power is off, it is not possible to engage the Automatic
Satellite Programme Recording mode.
● Be sure not to turn on the satellite receiver before the
programme is executed. Otherwise, the unit will start recording
when the satellite receiver’s power is turned on.
● If you have connected another appliance other than a satellite
receiver to the [L-2 INPUT/DECODER] connector, be sure not
to engage the Automatic Satellite Programme Recording
mode. Otherwise, the unit will start recording when the
connected appliance’s power is turned on.
● In step 3, if AVB blinks quickly on the front display panel even
though your satellite receiver’s power is off, Automatic Satellite
Programme Recording will not work properly with that satellite
receiver*. If this is the case, perform AManual Timer
ProgrammingB (A pg. 49) to timer record a satellite programme.
* Some satellite receivers output signals even if the power is off. Automatic
Satellite Programme Recording is not possible with those satellite
receivers.
● Automatic Satellite Programme Recording and timer recording
cannot be done at the same time.
● AVB blinks on the front display panel while Automatic Satellite
Programme Recording is in progress.
● For timer programming of the satellite receiver, refer to the
instruction manual of the satellite receiver.
● Automatic Satellite Programme Recording is not possible if your
satellite receiver does not have a timer.
● Pressing the unit’s A button while Automatic Satellite
Programme Recording is in progress turns off the unit’s power
