THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING A JBL®
PRODUCT!
This quick-start guide contains all the information you need to connect
and set up your new JBL Cinema BD300 home theater system.
To conserve our natural resources, your home theater system does
not include a printed owner’s manual. An owner’s manual containing
complete information about operating all of your new home theater
system’s features is available at our Web site. Go to www.jbl.com and
download the Cinema BD300 Home Theater System Owner’s Manual.
Your Cinema BD300 system is designed to be compatible with
region management information that is encoded on most Blu-ray
Disc and DVD recordings. Your system will only play discs that
contain region coding for the area where your system was shipped
and intended for sale:

REGION CODE DVD REGION
CODE
USA, Canada
Europe, Middle
East
Japan
Korea, S.E. Asia
Mexico, Latin
America
Australia, New
Zeland
Russia, India
China
For example, Cinema BD300 systems shipped to and sold in the
USA will only play Blu-ray Discs that contain region code A and
DVD discs that contain region code 1.

SET THE SPEAKER DISTANCES
Before you use your Cinema BD300 system you need to enter the
distance from each speaker to your listening position. When you
installed your Cinema BD300 system, you may have had to place some
speakers a little farther away from the listening position than others.
Sounds that are supposed to arrive simultaneously from different
speakers may blur, due to different arrival times. The BD300 receiver
provides an adjustment that compensates for these real-world speaker
placement differences, so your Cinema BD300 system can deliver a
superior surround-sound experience. (Even if all your speakers are the
same distance from the listening position you still need to enter their
distances.)
1. Measure the distance from each speaker (except the subwoofer) to
your main listening position. Write the distances down.
2. Press the remote’s Setup button.The General Settings menu will
appear.
