Connections and Setup  
Things to consider before you connect  
Ensure that the mains supply in your house complies with that indicated on the identification  
sticker located on the back of your unit.  
Install your unit horizontally, away from any source of heat (fireplace) or appliances creating  
strong magnetic or electric fields. The components of this unit are sensitive to heat. The  
maximum ambient temperature should not exceed 95° fahrenheit.  
EN  
Leave enough space around the unit to allow adequate ventilation: 10 cm on either side and  
above the top, and 5 cm at the rear.  
The humidity of the room should not exceed 75%. If you have to use the unit outdoors, do not  
expose it to rain or splashing water. The apparatus should not be exposed to dripping or  
splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, should be placed on the apparatus.  
Moving the unit from a cold place to a warm one can cause condensation on some components  
inside the unit. Let the condensation disappear on its own before turning the unit on again.  
Before moving the player, make sure the disc tray is empty.  
Where the mains plug or an appliance coupler is used as a disconnect device, the disconnect  
device shall remain readily operable.

The video jacks are OUT jacks, which need to be  
connected to IN jacks on the TV or monitor  
you’re connecting to (so the video content goes  
from the receiver to the screen). The audio jacks  
are IN jacks, which need to be connected to OUT  
jacks on the component you’re connecting to, so  
the sound from the component comes into the  
receiver (and out through the speakers).

The basic Video jack (usually color-coded yellow) is also referred to as composite  
video.  
Composite  
video cable  
S-VIDEO cable (not included)  
The S-VIDEO (separate video) jack provides better picture quality than composite  
video (the VIDEO jack) because the color is kept separate from the brightness  
and chroma part of the video signal.  
S-VIDEO cable  
Component video cables (Pr, Pb, Y) (not included)  
The Y, Pb, Pr jacks provide optimum picture quality by separating the video  
signal into three parts. To ensure maximum picture quality, use three video-  
grade cables for the connection. You can also buy bundled component video  
cables that are color-coded to match the Y, Pb, Pr inputs (green, blue and red).  
Note: If your television is a high definition television, use the DVD player’s progressive scan output  
to get the highest possible video resolution. Set the Progressive Scan option in the Video menu  
to on.  
Note: If one of the devices is not working, check that all the cables have been inserted  
properly into the jacks.

Coaxial digital cable (not included)  
This jack provides Dolby Digital/DTS sound quality by carrying the audio portion  
of the signal. Use a coaxial digital cable to connect to the digital output of a  
SAT receiver or DVD player.

Audio cables (not included)  
AUDIO IN L (left) and AUDIO IN R (right)  
These jacks and cables are often color-coded (red for right audio, and white for

Note: If your component has only one input for audio (mono), connect it to the left (white  
L/Mono) audio jack on the TV and don’t connect the right audio part of the cable.  
Audio cables  
(red and white)  
HDMI connector and cable (not included)  
HDMI  
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) provides optimum digital video  
and audio quality. Use an HDMI cable to connect to an HDMI-supported monitor  
to allow transfer of the digital images of DVD video and the stereo sound. If  
your television is a high definition television, use the DVD player’s HDMI output  
to get the highest possible video resolution. Set the HDMI option in the Video  
menu to on. (See page 27)

Connections and Setup  
Connecting the Sirius ConnectTM Home Tuner  
To use Sirius Satellite Radio, you need to connect a Sirius ConnectTM Home Tuner (purchased  
separately) to the unit and subscribe to the Sirius Satellite Radio. To learn more about Sirius  
Satellite Radio, see page 23-24.

turn off the unit.  
2. Connect the tuner to the Sirius socket at the rear panel of the unit.  
3. Connect the supplied antenna from the tuner package. Follow the instruction on the User’s  
Manual of the Tuner. Make sure the tuner is powered by its AC adapter.  
4. Press ON/STANDBY on the front panel to turn on the unit.

/DISPLAY on the front panel once or TUNER/SIRIUS on the remote three times to switch  
Connecting the speakers  
Six speakers are provided with the unit (2 front,  
1 center, 2 rear, 1 subwoofer). To achieve good  
surround effects, all six speakers need to be  
connected to the receiver.  
One speaker wire is provided with each  
speaker. Speaker wires are color-coded to  
match the terminals.  
Note: When connecting the speakers, make sure  
the polarities (“+” speaker wire to “+” on the  
receiver. For example, red wire to red terminal  
on the receiver) of speaker wires and terminals  
match. If the cords are reversed, the sound will  
be distorted. Do not ground the output line, it  
will damage the speaker.  
Note: When connecting subwoofer, connect subwoofer  
control cable to the unit’s rear panel first, then press the  
power switch on the subwoofer speaker to switch it on.

Subwoofer  
Courtesy Dolby Laboratories  
A subwoofer is designed to reproduce powerful  
low bass effects (explosions, the rumble of  
spaceships, etc.) which dramatically heighten  
the action on the screen.  
Magnetic shielding  
Speakers placed less than two feet from the TV set must be magnetically shielded in order to  
prevent picture distortion. Front, Center and Rear speakers provided with this unit are magnetically  
shielded to protect your TV set.  
Note: Place the subwoofer a foot or more away from TV when using the Front Surround sound Effect. (FSsE).  
Front speaker placement  
Follow the suggestions for speaker placement  
below to get the best results.  
Alignment  
Align the center speaker evenly with (A) or  
slightly behind (B) (the left and right speakers),  
but not ahead of them.  
Angle  
Place the left and right speakers to form a 45-  
degree angle with your favorite viewing  
Courtesy Dolby Laboratories  
position to duplicate the soundtrack mixer’s  
perspective.

Height  
The mid- and high-frequency drivers of the  
three front speakers should be as close as  
possible to the same height. This often requires  
placing the center speaker directly on top (A)  
or beneath (B) the TV set.

Preferred surround placement  
Location  
If possible, place surround speakers to either  
side of the listening area, not behind it.  
EN  
Height  
If space permits, install surround speakers 2-3  
feet above viewers. This helps to minimize  
localization effects.  
Aiming  
Aim surround speakers straight across the  
room, not down at viewers, to help create a  
more open, spacious surround sound field.  
Courtesy Dolby Laboratories  
Alternative Surround Placement  
Rear wall  
If rear wall mounting is the only choice, aim  
the speakers at each other (A), towards the  
front (B) or towards the sidewalls (C, D).  
Experiment with placement until sounds seem  
to surround you, rather than come from behind  
you.  
Courtesy Dolby Laboratories  
No adjacent walls  
Surround speakers can go on stands facing each  
other to approximate sidewall mounting (A), or  
to the sides or rear of the viewing area, aimed  
upwards; they can go right on the floor, or  
preferably, a few feet off the floor such as on  
end tables (B).

according to your room size. See page 28 section “Front Surround” for setting the setup menu of  
the Player.  
Test tone/Channel balance  
Channel balance  
Your receiver is equipped with a test signal generator for balancing the channels. As the signal  
“travels” from channel to channel, adjust the level controls until each channel plays at the same  
loudness level (see page 28).  
Level adjustment and surround channel level expectation  
Even though you adjust the surround channel to be as loud as the others on the test signal, on  
actual program material the surround channel is usually much lower than the front. Don’t re-adjust  
the surround level; program producers use surround for subtle atmospherics and ambience, and  
only rarely for special effects.

Precautions  
Use  
If your unit has been stored in a cool place for any length of time, during a journey for example,  
wait for about 2 hours before using it.  
EN  
The openings located on the top and bottom are for ventilation and must not be obstructed.  
During thunderstorms, we recommend that you isolate the unit from the electrical supply so that  
it is not damaged by electrical or electromagnetic surges.  
This unit is designed for continuous use. Switching off the DVD player to standby mode does not  
disconnect it from the mains supply. To completely isolate the equipment, remove the plug from  
the mains jack as some components remain connected to the electrical supply.  
If you notice any burning or smoke, disconnect the unit immediately to avoid any risk of  
electrocution.  
Do not attempt to look inside the unit through the disk tray opening or any other opening. You  
may be electrocuted or exposed to laser radiation.  
This unit is for domestic use only and must not be used for industrial purposes.  
Total or partial copying of recordings protected by copyright legislation, without the explicit  
permission of the holder of the rights, contravenes current legislation. Copying or downloading  
music files for sale or any other business purpose constitutes or could constitute a violation of  
copyright law.  
Cleaning  
Use a soft, dry, clean cloth. Regularly dust the vents at the back or sides.  
Using solvents, abrasive or alcohol-based products risks damaging the unit.  
If an object or liquid enters inside the unit, unplug it immediately and have it checked by an  
authorized servicer or service center.

Additional Information  
Disc Formats you can play  
In order to ensure playback, discs must conform with DVD, CD, VCD or SVCD standards. This  
unit may not play some recordings or files due to differences in recording formats, software  
used & Disc types.  
EN  
• CD-Rs should be preferably used  
DVD-Video  
instead of CD-RWs (rewritable CDs) as,  
in certain cases, CD-RW playback may  
be faulty.  
Digital video discs - 12 cm, single or  
double sided, single or dual layer. DVDs  
are highdensity optical discs on which  
high quality picture and audio are  
recorded by means of digital signals.  
• Use reliable, good-quality CD write  
software.  
• Close all other applications on the  
computer to ensure reliable CD-R disc  
recording.  
DVD-R,DVD-RW, DVD+R,  
DVD+RW  
Most DVD-R and DVD+R (one recording  
only), DVD-RW and DVD+RW discs  
(rewritable), depending on the DVD  
writer and discs used. Recordings using  
DVD-R and DVD-RW discs must be made  
in Video DVD mode. Recordings using  
DVD+RW discs must be made in  
accordance with the specifications for  
DVD+RW discs with a 4.7 GB capacity.  
Mp3 files  
DVD+Rewritable  
CD-R and CD-RW discs containing audio  
files in mp3 format. For CD-R mp3 discs,  
please follow all the recommendations  
for CD-R, along with the comments  
below:  
Your mp3 files should be ISO 9660 or  
JOLIET format. ISO 9660 format and  
Joliet mp3 files are compatible with  
Microsoft’s DOS and Windows, as well  
as with Apple Mac.  
• Mp3 filenames should not exceed 8  
characters, and should end with the  
“.mp3” extension. General name  
format: Title.mp3. When composing  
your title, use 10 characters or less, no  
spaces, and avoid the use of special  
characters including (. , / , \ , = ,+).  
• The total number of files on a disc  
should be less than 400.  
VCD - Video Compact Disc  
CD on which you can record up to 74  
min. of VHS quality video associated  
with still images, audio tracks and  
interactive menus.  
SVCD - Super Video Compact  
Disc  
Most SVCDs comply with the IEC62107  
standard. SVCDs can be used to record  
up to 70 minutes of digital sound and  
images in accordance with MPEG-2  
standards for video and MPEG-1  
standards for audio.  
• Use a decompression transfer rate of at  
least 128 kB/sec (kilobytes/second)  
when recording mp3 files. Sound  
quality with mp3 files basically depends  
on the rate of compression/  
Audio CDs  
Audio CDs (12 cm).  
decompression you choose. Obtaining  
audio CD quality sound requires an  
analog/digital sampling rate, that is  
conversion to mp3 format, of at least  
128 kB/sec and up to 160 kB/sec.  
Choosing higher rates, such as 192  
kB/sec or more, only rarely produces  
even better sound quality. Conversely,  
files with sampling rates below 128  
kB/sec will not play properly.  
• Do not record copyright-protected mp3  
files. “Securized” files are encrypted  
and code protected to prevent illegal  
copying.  
Important: The above recommendations do  
not guarantee that the DVD player will play  
mp3 recordings, or as an assurance of sound  
quality. Certain technologies and methods for  
mp3 file recording on CD-Rs prevent optimal  
playback of these files on your DVD player  
(i.e. degraded sound quality and in some cases,  
inability of the player to read the file).  
CD-R, CD-RW  
Most CD-R (one recording only) and CD-  
RW discs (rewritable).  
CD-Rs written during a multisession  
recording can be played, provided that  
the session has ended before the disc is  
played (depending on the write  
software). However, depending on the  
condition of the CD-writer, computer  
and the disc used, you may find that  
not all discs will play. When playing a  
CD-R disc, it is normal for the unit to  
take up to 20 seconds to recognize  
the disc before starting to play.  
If the disc is not recognized after a  
period of 20 seconds, remove the disc,  
and insert it again.  
Do not use its full capacity.
