SAFETY INFORMATION

This service manual is intended for qualified service technicians ; it is not meant for the casual doit-yourselfer. Qualified technicians have the necessary test equipment and tools, and have been trainedto properly and safely repair complex products such as those covered by this manual.Improperly performed repairs can adversely affect the safety and reliability of the product and mayvoid the warranty. If you are not qualified to perform the repair of this product properly and safely, youshould not risk trying to do so and refer the repair to a qualified service technician.

WARNING !

THE AEL (ACCESSIBLE EMISSION LEVEL) OF THE LASER POWER OUTPUT IS LESS THAN CLASS 1 BUT THE LASER COMPONENT IS CAPABLE OF EMITTING RADIATION EXCEEDING THE LIMIT FOR CLASS 1. A SPECIALLY INSTRUCTED PERSON SHOULD DO SERVICING OPERATION OF THE APPARATUS.
LASER DIODE CHARACTERISTICS FOR DVD : MAXIMUM OUTPUT POWER : 5 mW WAVELENGTH : 650 nm FOR CD : MAXIMUM OUTPUT POWER : 5 mW WAVELENGTH : 780 nm

VRW1872

Additional Laser Caution 1. Laser Interlock Mechanism Loading switch (S101 on the LOAB Assy) is used for interlock mechanism of the laser. When this switch turned ON in SW2 (XCLOSE) side (OPEN signal is 0V and XCLOSE signal is 3.5V), a laser becomes the status which can completely oscillate. Furthermore, the laser completely oscillates in the disc judgment and disc playback. When player is power ON state and laser diode is not completely oscillating, 780nm laser diode is always oscillating by half power. Laser diode is driving with Q101 (650nm LD) and Q102 (780nm LD) on the DVDM Assy. Therefore, when short-circuit between the emitter and collector of these transistors or the base voltage is supplied for transistors turn on, the laser oscillates. (failure mode) In the test mode , there is the mode that the laser oscillates except for the disc judgment and playback. LD ON mode in the test mode oscillates with the laser forcibly. The interlock mechanism mentioned above becomes invalid in this mode. 2. When the cover is open, close viewing through the objective lens with the naked eye will cause exposure to the laser beam. : See page 78.

[How to return from the protection circuit operating]
XV-DV303 operates the protection circuit under the following conditions and makes the set Power OFF. 1. When major voltage becomes down to low level because of short-circuit or without connection. 2. When detecting abnormal thermal rise by the thermistor. 3. When being disconnected Fan connector or blocked of the Fan rotation 4. When making the Speaker connector short-circuited. At this time the timer LED of the front panel blinks and informs the abnormal state. When operating the protection circuit, if it works by above condition 4, it is possible to return immediately by the Power ON button. If it operates by other conditions as above condition 1 to 3, it is possible to return by turning the Power ON 1 minute after starting protection circuit operation. When it is necessary to turn the Power ON without waiting 1 minute, pull out the AC plug and discharge the both terminal of the backup capacitor (C5575) of U-com board. By doing so, as the U-com is reset to the initial state, it is possible to set the Power ON again immediately.

General disc compatibility
This player was designed and engineered to be compatible with software bearing one or more of the following logos.

DVD-Video

Audio CD

Video CD

Other formats, including but not limited to the following, are not playable in this player: DVD-Audio, SACD, Photo CD, DVDRAM, DVD-ROM, CD-ROM* (*except those that contain MP3 files formatted as specified in the MP3 audio compatibility section)
DVD-R/RW and CD-R/RW discs (Audio CDs and Video CDs) recorded using a DVD recorder, CD recorder or personal computer may not be playable on this machine. This may be caused by a number of possibilities, including but not limited to: the type of disc used; the type of recording; damage, dirt or condensation on either the disc or the players pick-up lens.

CD-R/RW compatibility

This unit will play CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded in CD Audio or Video CD format, or as a CD-ROM containing MP3 audio files. However, any other content may cause the disc not to play, or create noise/distortion in the output.
This unit cannot record CD-R or CD-RW discs. Unfinalized CD-R/RW discs recorded as CD Audio can be played, but the full Table of Contents (playing time, etc.) will not be displayed.

MP3 audio compatibility

This unit will play CD-ROM discs containing files saved in the MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3 format (MP3) with a sampling rate of 32, 44.1 or 48kHz. Incompatible files will not play and UNPLAYABLE will show in the display. Fixed bit-rate files are recommended. Variable bit-rate (VBR) files are playable, but playing time may not be shown correctly. The CD-ROM used to compile your MP3 files must be ISO 9660 Level 2 compliant. CD physical format: Mode1, Mode2 XA Form1. This player only plays tracks that are named with the file extension.mp3 or.MP3. This player is not compatible with multisession discs. If you try and play a multisession disc, only the first session will be played. Use CD-R or CD-RW media for recording your MP3 files. The disc must be finalized in order to play in this unit. This player can recognize a maximum of 250 folders and 250 tracks. Discs containing more than 250 folders or 250 tracks will play, but only the first 250 folders / tracks. Folder and track names (excluding the.mp3 extension) are displayed.

4 Press 3 (6) to start playback. If youre playing a DVD or Video CD, a menu may appear. See pages 2021 for how to navigate these. If youre playing an MP3 disc, it may take a few seconds before playback starts, depending on the complexity of the file structure on the disc.
I have a widescreen TV so why are there black bars at the top and bottom of the screen when I play some discs? Some movie formats are such that even when played on a widescreen TV, black bars are necessary at the top and bottom of the screen. This is not a malfunction. I have a standard (4:3) TV and set the player to show widescreen DVDs in pan & scan format, so why do I still get black bars top and bottom with some discs? Some discs override the display preferences of the player, so even if you have 4:3 (Pan & Scan) selected, those discs will still be shown in letterbox format. This is not a malfunction.
After I load a DVD disc, it ejects automatically after a few seconds! Most likely, the disc is the wrong region for your player. The region number should be printed on the disc; check it against the region number of the player (which you can find on the rear panel). See also page 8. If the region number is OK, it may be that the disc is damaged or dirty. Clean the disc and look for signs of damage. See also page 59. Why wont the disc I loaded play? First check that you loaded the disc the right way up (label side up), and that its clean and not damaged. See page 59 for information on cleaning discs. If a disc loaded correctly wont play, its probably an incompatible format or disc type, such as DVD-Audio or DVD-ROM. See page 6 for more on disc compatibility.

An introduction to RDS

European model only Radio Data System, or RDS as its usually known, is a system used by FM radio stations to provide listeners with various kinds of informationthe name of the station and the kind of show theyre broadcasting, for example. This information shows up as text on the display, and you can switch between the kind of information shown. Although you dont get RDS information from all FM radio stations, you do with most. Probably the best feature of RDS is that you can search automatically by type of program. So, if you felt like listening to jazz, you could search for a station thats broadcasting a show with the program type, JAZZ. There are around 30 such program types, including various genres of music, news, sport, talk shows, financial information, and so on. This system lets you display three different kinds of RDS information: Radio Text, Program Service Name, and Program Type. Radio Text (RT) is messages sent by the radio station. These can be anything the broadcaster choosesa talk radio station might give out it telephone number as RT, for example. Program Service Name (PS) is the name of the radio station. Program Type (PTY) indicates the kind of program currently being broadcast. This unit can search for and display the following program types:
SPORT EDUCATE DRAMA CULTURE SCIENCE VARIED
POP M ROCK M EASY M LIGHT M CLASSICS OTHER M WEATHER FINANCE CHILDREN SOCIAL RELIGION PHONE IN TRAVEL LEISURE JAZZ COUNTRY NATION M

OLDIES FOLK M DOCUMENT Documentaries
Sports Educational material Radio drama Arts and culture Science and technology Usually talk-based material, such as quiz shows or interviews. Pop music Rock music Easy listening music Light classical music Serious classical music Other music not fitting any of the above categories Weather reports Finance and business Childrens entertainment Social affairs Religious programming Phone-in talk shows Travel Leisure interests and hobbies Jazz music Country music Popular music in a language other than English Popular music from the 50s

NEWS AFFAIRS INFO

News Current affairs General information
In addition, there is a program type, ALARM!, used for exceptional emergency announcements. You cant search for this, but the tuner will switch automatically to this RDS broadcast signal.

Using the RDS display

European model only To display the different types of RDS information available (RT, PS and PTY as explained on the previous page), press SYSTEM DISP on the remote control to cycle through the types of RDS information. Each press changes the display as follows:
Searching for RDS programs
European model only One of the most useful features of RDS is the ability to search for a particular kind of radio program. You can search for any of the program types (listed on the previous page). 1 Use the BAND button to select the FM band. RDS is only broadcast on FM. 2 Press SYSTEM DISP repeatedly until PTY SEARCH appears in the display. 3 Use the / (cursor up/down) buttons to select the program type you want to hear. 4 Press ENTER to search for the program type. The system starts searching through the station presets for a match. When it finds one, the search stops and the station plays for five seconds. 5 If you want to keep listening to the station, press ENTER within the 5 seconds. If you dont press ENTER, searching resumes.

RT Frequency Clock

PS PTY PTY SEARCH
If any noise is picked up while displaying the RT scroll, some characters may be displayed incorrectly. If you see NO DATA in the RT display, it means no RT data is being transmitted from the broadcast station. The display will automatically switch to the PS data display. If no PS data is transmitted from the station, the frequency will be displayed. In the PTY display, there are cases where NO DATA or NO TYPE is shown. If this happens, the PS display is shown after a few seconds. This unit converts lower case characters transmitted by broadcast stations to upper case characters.
RDS searches station presets only.
Setting up for surround sound

When the volume level is increased, set to OFF. When listening at low volumes, set to HIGH for maximum dynamic range compression. Dynamic range control is effective only when a Dolby Digital signal is being played back.

Dual mono setting

Default setting: L-CH1 R-CH 2 The dual mono setting can only be used when listening to Dolby Digital discs with dual mono encoding. These discs are not widely used, but are sometimes used to seperate the backing track from the vocals on karaoke discs. With this setting you can choose which channel in the dual mono setting you want to listen to. You will hear the channel you have selected (either CH1 or CH2) through your center speaker. If surround sound is switched off, you will hear the channel you have selected through both front speakers. In the L-CH1 RCH 2 setting, the left front speaker will play channel 1 and the right front speaker will play channel 2. Use / to cycle through the possible dual mono settings.
Setting the relative volume level of each channel
Default setting (European model only): RS/LS: +2dB SW: +1dB All other channels: 0dB Default setting (all other models): All channels: 0db For best surround sound playback, you should set the relative channel levels from the main listening position. You can set seperate levels for each surround mode. 1 Press SURROUND repeatedly to select a multi-channel listening mode. The Surround mode can be set to anything but AUTO or STEREO. 2 Press TEST TONE (SHIFT+4) to hear the test tone. The test tone is output in the following order:
L-CH1 R-CH2 CH2 MONO CH1 MONO

LFE attenuator setting

Default setting: 0 dB Dolby Digital and DTS audio sources include ultra-low bass tones. Set the LFE attenuator as necessary to prevent the ultra-low bass tones from distorting the sound from the speakers. Use / to set the attenuation level (0 dB, 10 dB or OFF).
3 Press VOLUME +/ to adjust the volume to an appropriate level. 4 Use the / (cursor up/down) buttons to adjust the speaker levels in turn. You should hear the test tone at the same volume from each speaker when seated in the main listening position.
