(About the cooling fan)
For safety, observe the following carefully.
Press AUX on the remote control to select DIGITAL IN, AUX1, or AUX2.
• Make sure there is good ventilation around the center unit.
Poor ventilation could overheat and cause damage.
• DO NOT block the cooling fan and the ventilation openings or

may not be able to escape.)
A cooling fan is mounted on the rear panel of the center unit to
prevent abnormal temperature inside the center unit, thus assuring
normal operation. The cooling fan automatically starts rotating to
supply external cool air to the inside of the center unit when the
internal temperature exceeds the specified limit.
Press Function on the main unit to select DIGITAL IN, AUX1, or AUX2.
Each time the button is pressed the mode switches as follows: FM ↔ AM ↔ DVD ↔

MP3-CD Playback
This system has a built-in MP3 decoder.
You can play back MP3 tracks (files)recorded on CD-Rs, CD-RWs, and CD-ROMs.
Operations Using the On-Screen Display
Turn on your TV when playing back an MP3 disc.
What is MP3? MP3 is an abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group (or MPEG) Audio Layer 3.
MP3 is simply a file format with a data compression ratio of 1:10 (128 Kbps*). That means,by using MP3
format, one CD-R or CD-RW can contain 10 times as much data volume as a regular CD can.
When the loaded MP3 disc is recognized, the following
on-screen display appears on the TV screen.
(The contents of this on-screen display vary according to
the disc — the way MP3 tracks were recorded on the
disc.)

CD-RW discs recorded in digital audio format.
When recording your own CD-R or CD-RW
discs, make sure that the recording session is
properly terminated, or they will not be
playable. (Depending on disc properties and
recording quality, some CD-R/RWs may not be
playable.)
CD-RW has a lower reflection rate than CD-R
media and consequently it will take a longer to
read CD-R discs.

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
size, you should adjust the aspect ratio to fit your TV or monitor.
You can use the DVD player's Setup function to select the TV screen ratio,
rating limit, or digital output mode.

Dolby Pro Logic II
• Dolby Pro-Logic II is a new multi-channel playback format developed by Dolby Laboratories using feedback logic
steering technology and offering improvements over conventional Dolby Pro Logic circuits.
• Dolby Pro Logic II can be used to decode not only sources recorded in Dolby Surround (
) but also
regular stereo sources into five channels (front left, front right, center, surround left and surround right) to achieve
surround sound.
• Whereas with conventional Dolby Pro Logic the surround channel playback frequency band was limited, Dolby Pro
Logic II offers a wider band range.
The display changes depending on the current audio output
mode (DSP, PRO LOGIC, 3-STEREO, STEREO, etc.).
In addition, the surround channels were monaural (the surround left and right channels were the same) with previous
Dolby Pro Logic, but with Dolby Pro Logic II they are stereo.
Test Tone
Speaker Setting Methods
Press the Test Tone button.
* Sources recorded in Dolby Surround
These are sources in which three or more channels of surround have been recorded as two channels of signals
using Dolby Surround encoding technology.
Dolby Surround is used for the sound tracks of movies recorded on DVDs, LDs and video cassettes to be played on
stereo VCRs, as well as for the stereo broadcast signals of FM radio, TV, satellite broadcasts and cable TV.
Decoding these signals with Dolby Pro Logic makes it possible to achieve multi-channel surround playback.
The signals can also be played on ordinary stereo equipment, in which case they provide normal stereo sound.

DSP(Digital Signal Processor)
Modes
To increase Effect level
DSP modes have been designed to simulate different acoustic environments.
The sound heard in a hall, theater, pavilion, dance club, or live club consists of direct
and indirect sound —early reflections and reflections from behind.
Direct sounds reach the listener directly without any reflection.
Indirect sounds are delayed by the distance of the ceiling and walls.
These indirect sounds are an important element of the acoustic surround effect.

RDS allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with their regular program signals.
For example,the stations send their station names,as well as information about what type of program
they broadcast, such as sports or music,etc.
One of the advantages of the RDS service is that you can locate a particular kind of program from the
preset channels by specifying the PTY codes.
