Finding a suitable location Place the set on a flat, hard and stable surface. Do not place the set on a carpet. Do not position the set on top of other equipment that might heat it up (e.g., receiver or amplifier). Do not put anything under the set (e.g., CDs, magazines). Space for ventilation Place the apparatus in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat build up. Allow at least 10 cm (4.5) clearance from the rear and the top of the set and 5cm (2.3) from the left and right to prevent overheating.

Cleaning discs

To clean a disc, use a micro fibre cleaning cloth and wipe the disc from the center to the edge in a straight line. CAUTION! Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static sprays intended for discs. Since the optical unit (laser) of the DVD system operates at a higher power than regular DVD or CD players, cleaning CDs intended for DVD or CD players may damage the optical unit (laser). Therefore, refrain from using a cleaning CD. 8

Glossary

Analogue: Sound that has not been turned into numbers. Analogue sound varies, while digital sound has specific numerical values. These sockets send audio through two channels, the left and right. Aspect ratio: The ratio of vertical and horizontal sizes of a displayed image. The horizontal vs. vertical ratio of conventional TVs. is 4:3, and that of wide-screens is 16:9. AUDIO OUT Sockets: Red and white sockets on the back of the DVD System that send audio to another system (TV, Stereo, etc.). Bit Rate: The amount of data used to hold a given length of music; measured in kilobits per second, or kbps. Or, the speed at which you record. Generally, the higher the bit rate, or the higher the recording speed, the better the sound quality. However, higher bit rates use more space on a Disc. Chapter: Sections of a picture or a music piece on a DVD that are smaller than titles. A title is composed of several chapters. Each chapter is assigned a chapter number enabling you to locate the chapter you want. Component Video Out Sockets: Sockets on the back of the DVD System that send high-quality video to a TV that has Component Video In sockets (R/G/B, Y/Pb/Pr, etc.). Disc menu: A screen display prepared for allowing selection of images, sounds, subtitles, multi-angles, etc recorded on a DVD. DivX 3.11/4.x/5.x: The DivX code is a patentpending, MPEG-4 based video compression technology, developed by DivXNetworks, Inc., that can shrink digital video to sizes small enough to be transported over the internet, while maintaining high visual quality. Dolby Digital: A surround sound system developed by Dolby Laboratories containing up to six channels of digital audio (front left and right, surround left and right, centre and subwoofer). Dolby Surround Pro Logic II: It is an improved matrix decoding technology that provides better spatiality and directionality on Dolby Surround programme material; provides a convincing threedimensional soundfield on convertional stereo music recordings; and is ideally suited to bring the surround experience to automotive sound. While conventional surround programming is fully campatible with Dolby Surround Pro Logic II decoders, soundtracks will be able to be encoded specifically to take full advantage of Pro Logic II playback, including separate left and right surround channels. (Such material also compatible with conventional Pro Logic decoders). DTS: Digital Theatre Systems. This is a surround sound system, but it is different from Dolby Digital. The formats were developed by different companies. JPEG: A very common digital still picture format. A still-picture data compression system proposed by the Joint Photographic Expert Group, which features small decrease in image quality in spite of its high compression ratio. MP3: A file format with a sound data compression system. MP3 is the abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group 1 (or MPEG-1) Audio Layer 3. By using the MP3 format. One CD-R or CD-RW can contain about 10 times more data then a regular CD. Multichannel: DVDs are formatted to have each sound track constitute one sound field. Multichannel refers to a structure of sound tracks having three or more channels. Parental control: Limits Disc play according to the age of the users or the limitation level in each country. The limitation varies from disc to disc; when it is activated, playback will be prohibited if the softwares level is higher than the user-set level.

Product highlights
PAL & NTSC Progressive Scan Progressive Scan doubles the vertical resolution of the image resulting in a noticeably sharper picture. Instead of sending fields with the odd lines to the screen first, followed by the fields with the even lines, both fields are written at one time. A flicker free high resolution image is created giving you the best viewing experience. Conical Dome Tweeters Conical Dome Tweeters enhance SACD sound at the highest frequencies by capturing every nuance and inflection of sound by using an extremely light and stiff membrane created of LEXAR, which allows the tweeters to deliver a higher range of audio frequency. The special cone shape of the reflector dish ensures a wider sound distribution of the higher frequencies. This results in stunningly clear and crisp highs and an overall more balanced sound perception. Multi-format Movies-DivX, MP4 Multi format playability allows you to play most disc formats for maximum compatibility and viewing pleasure. Music:SACDWindows Media Audio Multi format playability allows you to play most disc formats for maximum disc compatibility and listening pleasure. Picture CD with MP3 Playback Picture CD is a CD-R or CD-RW disc on which you can store your MP3 and digital pictures.
