Now that you have connected your player to the other devices, you can begin setup. First, we recommend that you turn on your television before turning on your KiSS Player.
This way, the video channel you have chosen will appear on your television screen automatically. Turning on your KiSS Player before your television, however, has no negative
affect on the use or operation of your player. In this case, you would simply have to use your TV remote to search for the video channel you want your player set to, instead
of it appearing automatically.
6Turning your player "On" for the first time
2. Press the On/Off button located on the back of your KiSS player to turn the
player on. A red light will appear on the front display indicating that the player
is on Standby mode.
1. Turn "On" your television.
3. Press the Standby button on your remote to start the player. If you
are powering up your KiSS player for the first time, the Quick Setup
Menu will appear automatically.

Powering up your player for the first time, you will be presented with the Quick Setup wizard allowing you basic setup of your player with very few button presses and minimal
technical knowledge. The Quick Setup is simple and largely self-explanatory. Should you at a later time wish to go through it again or alter some more advanced settings,
please consult the “Advanced Setup” section of this User Guide.

KiSS Online
This menu section deals with the online capabilities and features of the DP-600. Accessing KiSS Online
or KML pages requires the player to have Internet access through either a wired or wireless network. For
more information about connecting the player to a network, see the “Connecting your player to a network”
section of this User Guide. More information about each individual online application can be obtained in the
dedicated “KiSS Online” section.
KiSS Online: This menu option gives you access to the KiSS Online portal, where you will have direct access
to a portfolio of online applications. Currently the portal features KiSS TV Guide - an electronic program
guide, WebRadio – a repository containing thousands of internet-based radio channels, weather information,
a stock viewer and a handful of interactive board games.
WebRadio: This menu item brings up WebRadio directly without the need to browse the main menu of the
KiSS Online portal. For information on how to use WebRadio3, please refer to the KiSS Online section of this
User Guide.
My KML page: This menu item brings you directly to your personally specified KML page. See next paragraph
for information on how to add one. KML stands for KiSS Media Language and is essentially a language for
presenting online content like text, images and video in a proper way on a TV screen, much like websites do

on a computer monitor. Developing KML pages require some basic programming skills but is fairly simple to
understand. Information on how to develop your own KML pages can be found in the support section of our
website at www.kiss-technology.com/support.
Customize "My KML" Page: Entering this menu item allows you to define an IP address pointing to a KML
page of your choice. KiSS Technology does not maintain or keep track of third party pages. Therefore we
do not currently provide a repository of available pages. Instead we recommend doing an Internet search.
Please note that pages are provided “as is” by third party developers and are in no shape or form affiliated
with KiSS Technology.
Reveal Player ID: Enter this menu item to reveal your Player ID. A player ID is your player’s unique name and
is used to access KiSS Online features as well as KiSS web services. The Player ID is used for authentication
and storing your unique preferences only, and you will almost never be asked to enter this anywhere. KiSS
would like to advise you NOT to give this out to anyone except when asked for login on KiSS web services or
by request from KiSS Customer Service in the resolving of specific issues.
This menu section contains options for browsing and playing files residing on an USB storage device connected to
the player. In order to use them, please connect an USB storage device (hard drive, USB memory dongle or other)
to the USB port concealed behind the removable cover in the bottom right side of your player or the port on the
back of the player. See the “Connecting a USB mass storage device” section of this User Guide for depiction.
Video files: Browse and view video files on the connected USB storage device.
Audio files: Browse and view audio files on the connected USB storage device.
Picture files: Browse and view JPG-format pictures on the connected USB storage device.
