1. PRECAUTIONS

1. The DVH920 can easily be damaged by moisture, high temperatures or high humidity. Keep the inside of the car clean and well ventilated. 2. Never subject the DVH920 to strong shocks or open its case. Doing so may result in damage. 3. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe dirt off the DVH920. Never use a hard cloth or thinner, alcohol, etc. For tough dirt, apply some cold or lukewarm water to a soft cloth and wipe off the dirt gently. 4. When the main unit is switched to the traffic announcement or PTY interrupt reception while using the DVH920, the effect from DVH920 doesnt work. 5. Some tracks may sound distored when adjustment; this is normal and not a cause for concern.

CAUTION

CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS NOT EXPRESSLY APPROVED BY THE MANUFACTURER FOR COMPLIANCE COULD VOID THE USERS AUTHORITY TO OPERATE THE EQUIPMENT. INFORMATION FOR USERS: CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS PRODUCT NOT APPROVED BY THE MANUFACTURER WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.

I DVD Video

When playing a DTS-compatible DVD video or music CD, some noise may be heard for the short interval required for this unit to detect the DTS signal. During playback of Dolby digital or DTS source, some sound interruption may be heard if the search/skip/pause modes are operated before playback.

I Digital Inputs (When Optical Digital Cable is Connected)
When optical digital cable is used to connect components like a DVD changer, the digital signals are given precedence in processing. When Dolby Digital (other than 2ch), DTS, Linear PCM (96 kHz) or other digital signals are input, the Dolby Pro Logic II mode can be selected, but the mode will not perform ordinary audio processing. When MP3 (32 kHz) and Linear PCM (96 kHz) digital signals are input, the Parametric Equalizer (P.EQ) function can be operated, but it will not perform audio processing.

I Thin-line chassis can be installed beneath seat. I DTS
DTS is an abbreviation for Digital Theater System; while this system possesses the same 5.1ch format as Dolby Digital, its higher quantity of recorded data results in higher quality sound. Manufactured under license from Digital Theater Systems, Inc. US Pat. No. 5,451,942, 5,956,674, 5,974,380, 5,978,762 and other world-wide patents issued and pending.

I Dolby Pro Logic II

Using the newest in digital matrix technology, Dolby Pro Logic II is a matrix decoder technology which further improves earlier Dolby Pro Logic. This new technology produces superb 5.1ch sound even with CDs and other stereo sources. The surround channel is converted to full-band (20 Hz-20 kHz) stereo, thus allowing stereo sources to be enjoyed with the impact of 5.1ch sound. Four modes can be set in accordance with the playback source, including MUSIC mode, MATRIX mode, MOVIE mode, and VIRTUAL mode. Dolby Digital is a totally discrete digital 5.1 channel format. Signals for the front 3 channels, 2 surround channels, and the low-frequency 0.1 channel are recorded discretely, so no crosstalk occurs between channels, and the sense of placement and depth of the sounds is reproduced faithfully. Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories. Dolby, Pro Logic and duble-D symbol are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories.
