Congratulations on Your Purchase!
Your new DVD receiver is designed to deliver maximum
enjoyment and years of trouble free service.
Please take a few moments to read this manual thoroughly. It will
explain the features and operation of your unit and help ensure a
trouble free installation.
Please unpack your unit carefully. We recommend that you save
the carton and packing material. They will be helpful if you ever
need to move your unit and may be required if you ever need to
return it for service. Your unit is designed to be placed in a
horizontal position and it is important to allow at least two inches
of space behind your unit for adequate ventilation and cabling
convenience.
To avoid damage, never place the unit near radiators, in front of
heating vents, in direct sunlight, in excessively humid, dusty
locations or near sources of strong magnetic fields. Connect your
complementary components as illustrated in the following section.

FOR U.S.A AND CANADA............................... 120 V
Units shipped to the U.S.A and Canada are
designed for operation on 120 V AC only.
Safety precaution with use of a polarized AC plug.
However, some products may be supplied with a
nonpolarized plug.
CAUTION :
To prevent electric shock, match wide
blade of plug to wide slot, fully insert.
ATTENTION :
Pour eviter les choc electriques,
introduire la lame la plug large de la borne
correspondante de la prise et poussre jusqu'au fond.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
FOR CHINA, EUROPE AND AUSTRALIA
..................................................... 220 V/230 V/240 V
Units shipped to China are designed for operation on
220 V AC only.
Units shipped to Australia are designed for operation
on 240 V AC only.
To ensure safe operation, the three-pin plug supplied
must be inserted only into a standard three-pin
power point which is effectively earthed through the
normal household wiring. Extension cords used with
the equipment must be three-core and be correctly
wired to provide connection to earth.
Improper extension cords are a major cause of
fatalities. The fact that the equipment operates
satisfactorily does not imply that the power point is
earthed and that the installation is completely safe.
For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective
earthing of the power point, consult a qualified
electrician.

· Please be certain that this unit is unplugged from the AC outlet before making any connections.
· Since different components often have different terminal names, carefully read the operating instructions of the component
connected.
· Be sure to observe the color coding when connecting audio and video cords.
· Make connections firmly and correctly. If not, poor connections can cause loss of sound, noise or damage to the unit.
1. Connecting antennas
· Change the position of the FM indoor antenna until
you get the best possible reception of your favorite
FM stations.
· A 75 outdoor FM antenna may be used to further
improve the reception.
Disconnect the indoor antenna before connecting
the outdoor one.
· Place the AM loop antenna as far as possible from
this unit, TV set, speaker cords and the AC input
cord and set it to a direction for the best reception.
· If the reception is poor with the AM loop antenna,
an AM outdoor antenna can be used in place of
the AM loop antenna.

2. Connecting audio/video components
· The AUX/TV jacks may be connected to an additional TV or audio component such as a CD player, tape deck, etc..
· Only during playback of DVD Videos on this unit, the MONITOR COMPONENT VIDEO OUTs of this unit can be
capable of outputting either conventional interlacing video signal or progressively scanned video signal (that
can reproduce high-density pictures with less flicker).
· According to the types of video signals, the excellence in picture quality is as follows :
"Progressive COMPONENT" > "Interlaced COMPONENT" > "S-VIDEO" > "COMPOSITE"
· When making COMPONENT VIDEO connections, connect "Y/PY" to "Y"(or PY), "Cb/Pb" to "Cb"(or "B-Y, "Pb")
and "Cr/Pr" to "Cr"(or "R-Y", "Pr").
· Depending on the type of the COMPONENT VIDEO INs of Monitor TV, be sure to set the COMPONENT
VIDEO OUTPUT SIGNAL to the corresponding setting.
(Refer to "CHANGING THE COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT SIGNAL" on page 39.)
· A signal input into S-VIDEO IN jack will be output in the MONITOR S-VIDEO OUT jack only.
· In case of COMPOSITE VIDEO signal, a signal input into VIDEO 1 COMPOSITE VIDEO IN jack will be output
in the MONITOR COMPOSITE VIDEO OUT jack only and a signal input into VIDEO 2 COMPOSITE VIDEO IN
jack will be output in the VIDEO 1 and MONITOR COMPOSITE VIDEO OUT jacks.
Notes :
· When the COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT SIGNAL is set to PROGRESSIVE TV, the S-VIDEO and
COMPOSITE VIDEO OUTs of this unit cannot output the video signals, meaning the picture will not be shown.
· When the progressive video signals are input into the non-progressive COMPONENT VIDEO INs of monitor
TV, the picture may not be shown normally.
Therefore, when the progressive COMPONENT VIDEO INs of monitor TV are not connected to, you should set
the COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT SIGNAL to INTERLACE TV.
· Do not connect the unit to the TV through a VCR. Otherwise the picture may be disturbed due to the copy
protection function.
