They could get hurt if a speaker falls.  
When connecting the speaker wires to the speakers,  
make sure that the polarity (+/) is correct.  
Never touch the speaker terminal while the power is on.  
Doing so may result in a risk of electric shock.

- If your television is equipped with Component Video inputs, connect a component video cable  
(not supplied) from the Pr, Pb and Y jacks on the back panel of the system to the corresponding  
jacks on your TV.  
If the TV only supports a resolution of 576i(480i), the screen may be divided into 2 screens,

What is HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)?  
This device transmits DVD video and audio signals digitally without the process of  
converting to analog. You can get sharper digital pictures by connecting the video to the  
TV using an HDMI connection cable.  
Note  
If you connect the HDMI and Component outputs (PR, PB, Y) at the same time, the Component output resolution  
changes automatically to the designated HDMI resolution.  
Example: If the TV connected to HDMI can only support up to 480p, the HDMI and Component outputs are all  
converted to 480p, even if you select the resolution switch to 1080i.  
Since this product has an embedded Video Upscaler function with Faroudja DCDi technology, it can enhance a  
576i(480i) DVD resolution output to 480p/720p/1080i.  
You do not have to make separate adjustments, since the Home Theater and TV will be automatically adjust  
themselves to the optimal resolution and aspect ratio if connected to HDMI. (If the TV is an HDTV and has an  
HDMI Input jack, output is automatically converted to 1080i resolution.)  
Audio will not be output if decoder is not embedded in TV during 5.1 channel disc playback.  
Component output will give video in ‘480p’ mode only during DVD disc playback applied with Macrovision.  
Macrovision processes scramble on analog output to prevent illegal recording. Accordingly, if you are using  
HDMI only, it can output 480p/720P/1080i, but is limited to 480p only if you are using component.  
When both HDMI and COMPONENT jacks are connected, COMPONENT video is not displayed.  
See your TV owner's manual for more information on how to select the TV's Video Input source.  
TV Broadcast System  
This device is designed to work with the NTSC video format.  
For normal playback, the video format used to record a DVD disc must be compatible with  
your TV's video format.

Adjusting the TV Aspect Ratio (Screen Size)  
The horizontal to vertical screen size ratio of conventional TVs is 4:3, while that of wide screen and high  
definition TVs is 16:9. This ratio is called the aspect ratio. When playing DVDs recorded in different  
screen sizes, you should adjust the aspect ratio to fit your TV or monitor.  
For a standard TV, select either "4:3LB" or "4:3PS" option according to  
personal preference. Select "16:9" if you have a wide screen TV.  
: Select this to view a 16:9 picture in the full-screen  
mode on your wide screen TV.  
• You can enjoy the wide screen aspect.  
WIDE  
: Select this to play a 16:9 picture in the letter box  
mode on a conventional TV.  
4:3LB  
(4:3 Letterbox)  
• Black bars will appear at the top and bottom of the screen.  
4:3PS  
: Select this to play a 16:9 picture in the pan & scan  
mode on a conventional TV.  
(4:3 Pan&Scan)  
• You can see the central portion of the screen only (with the  
sides of the 16:9 picture cut off).  
• If a DVD is in the 4:3 ratio, you cannot view it in wide screen.  
• Since DVD discs are recorded in various image formats, they will look different depending on  
the software, the type of TV, and the TV aspect ratio setting.
