Connections and Setup
Things to Consider Before You Connect
Protect Against Power Surges
•
•
•
Connect all components before you plug any of their power cords into the wall outlet.
Turn off the TV and/or components before you connect or disconnect any cables.
Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded. Refer to the Important Safeguards sheet
packed with your DVD player.
Protect Components from Overheating
•
Don’t block ventilation holes on any of the components. Arrange the components so that air can
circulate freely.
•
•
•
Don’t stack components.
When you place components in a stand, make sure you allow adequate ventilation.
If you connect an audio receiver or amplifier, place it on the top shelf so the heated air from it won’t flow
around other components.
Position Cables Properly to Avoid Audio Interference
•
Insert each cable firmly into the designated jack.
•
If you place components above the TV, route all cables down the side of the back of the TV instead of
straight down the middle of the back of the TV.
•
If your antenna uses 300-ohm twin lead cables, do not coil the cables. Also, keep the twin lead cables
away from audio/video cables.
Connection Pictures
Audio/video cables are usually bundled together. For better visibility, the connection pictures in this book
show each cable separately (audio left, audio right, and video).
Note: The illustrations in this book are representational, and in some instances may not exactly match the
item represented.
Types of Discs Your DVD Player will Play
•
•
•
DVD video discs – DVD video discs contain high quality picture and sound content.
Audio discs – Audio CDs contain musical or sound content only.
Video CDs – Like DVD discs, VCDs contain picture and sound content. VCDs hold less content that
DVD discs.
•
CD-R (MP3 files) – CD-R discs with MP3 files recorded or downloaded onto them.

Dolby Digital® and DTS®
Both Dolby Digital and DTS are audio formats used to record 5.1-channel audio signals onto the digital track
of film (while the film is being made). Both of these formats provide up to six separate channels: left, right,
center, left rear, right rear, and common subwoofer.
The disc will play 5.1-channel sound only if you’ve connected a DTS or Dolby Digital receiver or decoder and if
the original movie the disc was recorded from was encoded in the Dolby Digital or DTS format.
Please Read This Before Using the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT Jack!
This player’s digital output jack is designed for a connection to a Dolby Digital or DTS receiver or decoder.
Older digital equipment may not be compatible with the Dolby Digital bitstream. Such a connection can
create a high level of noise that may be harmful to your ears, and could damage headphones or speakers.
It is important to choose the correct Digital Output setting in the DVD Player’s Sound menu, especially when
you use the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack. For more information, see chapter 5.

Important Battery Information
•
•
•
If you’re not going to use the remote for a month or more, be sure to remove
the batteries because they can leak and cause damage.
Dispose of batteries in the proper manner, according to federal, state, and
local regulations.
insert batteries
Any battery may leak electrolyte if mixed with a different battery type, if
inserted incorrectly, if all batteries are not replaced at the same time, if
disposed of in fire, or if an attempt is made to charge a battery not intended
to be recharged.
•
Discard leaky batteries immediately. Leaking batteries can cause skin burns or
other personal injury.
Point the Remote in the Right Direction
When you want the remote to operate the DVD Player, point the remote at the
DVD Player, not the TV. The remote has to be pointed in the correct direction
and toward the correct component in order for the remote control’s signal to
communicate with the sensor on the component. Make sure there is a clear path
between the remote control and the component you want to operate so the signal
isn’t blocked.
Turn on the TV and DVD Player
1. Turn on your TV and tune to the correct video input channel (see following
page).
2. Press the POWER button on the remote or the ON•OFF button on the
DVD player.

Regional Coding
Both the DVD player and the discs are coded by region. These regional codes must match in order for the disc
to play. If the codes don’t match, the disc won’t play. This player’s code is region 1.
Using Different Menus
Each disc is programmed with different features. There are three separate ways to access features:
•
The Disc menu – The Disc menu is part of each disc and is separate from the DVD player’s menu. The
contents of each disc menu varies according to how the disc was authored and what features are included.

Using a Disc Menu
A disc is capable of having an on-screen menu that is separate from the DVD player’s menu system and on-

Note: “Default settings” are the settings that the player will default to each time it is turned on.
Any settings you change with the disc menu only temporarily override the default settings.
Use the Setup Menu of the DVD player to change the default settings (See chapter 5).
Many discs skip the disc
menu and start playing
automatically. To access
the disc menu when
you’re playing a disc,
press MENU on the

Playing Video CDs
What is a Video CD?
Like DVD video discs, Video CDs contain picture and sound content. Video CDs (VCDs) are encoded in a
different format. VCDs don’t hold as much information as DVD discs and the picture quality is not as high.
VCDs can have more than one title. Each title is divided into tracks (similar to chapters on a DVD disc).
The Video CD Disc Menu
A Video CD disc is capable of having an on-screen menu that is separate from the DVD player’s menu system
and on-screen information banners. If the disc has a menu, the menu will appear after the disc is loaded into
the player.
The content and operation of disc menus varies from disc to disc. Check the instructions that accompany the
Video CD for more information on how to use the playback control functions for that specific disc.
If a disc menu appears:
1. Use the number buttons on the remote to select a track (similar to a chapter).
2. Press OK on the remote to begin playback of the selected track.
3. Press CH+ or CH- on the remote to scroll through the tracks.
4. Press the STOP button on the remote to stop playback and return to the disc menu.
To bring up the disc menu during disc play, press the MENU button on the remote.
If the Video CD Has Playback Control
If a disc is encoded with the playback control function, a menu screen appears after the disc is loaded into the
player.
1. Use the number buttons on the remote to select a track.
2. Press OK to begin playback of the selected track.
3. Press CH+ or CH- on the remote to scroll through the tracks.
4. Press STOP to stop playback and return to the menu or press STOP twice to stop playback and remove
the menu from the screen.
Bypassing Playback Control
If a Video CD has playback control, you can bypass the disc’s menu by following these steps when you first
load the discs.
1. Press STOP to put the player in the stop mode.
2. Use the number buttons on the remote to enter the desired track number, and then press OK. When
playback begins, the disc will respond as if it is not in the Playback Control mode.

the movie, you can go directly to that point in the title.
1. With the disc playing, press the INFO button on the remote twice (the time search prompt will be

available titles or chapters. Up to nine thumbnails are displayed per screen.
Each thumbnail has a number in the corner. You can select and play a chapter
by pressing that number on the remote.
5. To view the next nine thumbnails, press the CH+ button to go forward and
the CH- button to go to the previous page.
6. To exit the digest without making a selection, press the STOP button.

Setting the Ratings Limit
The Ratings feature is a rating limit system, like movie ratings. It works with DVD discs that have been
assigned a rating. This helps you control the types of DVDs that your family watches.
This option lets you determine how your player will react to discs that contain movies that are rated (in the
U.S.A., the Motion Pictures Association of America rates movies as G, PG, PG-13, etc.).
You decide which ratings require a password and which ones don’t. This system ranks the ratings 1 through 8
in order to accommodate different countries’ ratings systems (1 is considered a movie title with the least
offensive material).
In order for the Ratings feature to work, the disc must be encoded with rating information and the Password
mode must be turned on.
