Safety precautions

Placement

Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct sunlight, high tem-

peratures, high humidity, and excessive vibration. These conditions can

damage the cabinet and other components, thereby shortening the unit’s

service life.

Do not place heavy items on the unit.

Voltage

Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload the unit and

cause a fire.

Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully when setting

the unit up on a ship or other place where DC is used.

AC mains lead protection

Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not damaged. Poor

connection and lead damage can cause fire or electric shock. Do not pull,

bend, or place heavy items on the lead.

Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the AC mains

lead can cause electric shock.

Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause electric shock.

Foreign matter

Do not let metal objects fall inside the unit. This can cause electric shock

or malfunction.

Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric shock or mal-

function. If this occurs, immediately disconnect the unit from the power sup-

ply and contact your dealer.

Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They contain flammable

gases which can ignite if sprayed into the unit.

Service

Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is interrupted, indi-

cators fail to light, smoke appears, or any other problem that is not covered

in these instructions occurs, disconnect the AC mains lead and contact your

dealer or an authorized service center. Electric shock or damage to the unit

can occur if the unit is repaired, disassembled or reconstructed by unquali-

fied persons.

Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the power source if it

is not to be used for a long time.

Glossary

WMA/MP3/JPEG information

pDiscs must conform to ISO9660 level 1 or 2 (except for extended formats).

pThis unit is compatible with multi-session but if there are a lot of sessions it

takes more time for play to start. Keep the number of sessions to a mini-

mum to avoid this.

[WMA]

pNoise may occur when playing WMA files.

pYou cannot play WMA files that are copy protected.

pWMA files must have the extension “.WMA” or “.wma”.

[MP3]

pThis unit is not compatible with ID3 tags.

pIf you play an MP3 track that includes still picture data, it will take some

time before the music itself starts playing and the elapsed time will not be

displayed during this time. Even after the track starts, the correct play time

will not be displayed.

pMP3 files must have the extension “.MP3” or “.mp3”.

[JPEG]

To view JPEG files on this unit:

—Take them on a digital camera that meets the DCF (Design rule for

Camera File system) standard. Some digital cameras have functions that

are not supported by the DCF standard like automatic picture rotation

which may render a picture un-viewable.

—Do not alter the files in any way or save them under a different name.

—Ensure they have the extension “.JPG” or “.jpg”, “.JPEG” or “.jpeg”.

This unit cannot display moving pictures, MOTION JPEG and other such

formats, still pictures other than JPEG (i.e. TIFF) or play associated sound.

Naming folders and files

At the time of recording, give folders and file

names 3-digit prefixes in the order you want to

play them (this may not work at times).

Decoder

A decoder restores the coded audio signals on DVDs to normal. This is

called decoding.

Dolby Digital

This is a method of coding digital signals developed by Dolby Laboratories.

Apart from stereo (2-channel) audio, these signals can also be multi-

channel audio. A large amount of audio information can be recorded on one

disc using this method.

DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

This surround system is used in many movie theaters around the world.

There is good separation between the channels, so realistic sound effects

are possible.

Dynamic range

Dynamic range is the difference between the lowest level of sound that can

be heard above the noise of the equipment and the highest level of sound

before distortion occurs.

Frame still and field still

Frames are the still pictures that go together to make a moving picture.

There are about 30 frames shown each second.

One frame is made up of two fields. A regular television shows these fields

one after the other to create frames.

A still is shown when you pause a moving picture. A frame still is made up of

two alternating fields, so the picture may appear blurred, but overall quality

is high.

A field still is not blurred, but it has only half the information of a frame still so

picture quality is lower.

I/P/B

MPEG 2, the video compression standard adopted for use with DVD-Video,

codes frames using these 3 picture types.

I: Intra coded picture (I-picture)

This picture has the best quality and is the best to use when adjusting

the picture.

P: Predictive coded picture (P-picture)

This picture is calculated based on past I or P-pictures.

B: Bidirectionally-predictive coded picture (B-picture)

This picture is calculated by comparing past and future I and

P-pictures so it has the lowest volume of information.

Linear PCM (pulse code modulation)

These are uncompressed digital signals, similar to those found on CDs.

Playback control (PBC)

If a Video CD has playback control, you can select scenes and information

with menus.
