IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

11) Only use attachments/accessories specified by the

manufacturer.

12) Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket,

or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold

with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use

caution when moving the cart/apparatus

combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

13) Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused

for long periods of time.

14) Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is

required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way,

such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been

spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the

apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not

operate normally, or has been dropped.

Read these operating instructions carefully before using the unit. Follow the safety instructions on the unit and the applicable safety instructions

listed below. Keep these operating instructions handy for future reference.

1) Read these instructions.

2) Keep these instructions.

3) Heed all warnings.

4) Follow all instructions.

5) Do not use this apparatus near water.

6) Clean only with dry cloth.

7) Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with

the manufacturer’s instructions.

8) Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat

registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that

produce heat.

9) Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-

type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than

the other. A grounding-type plug has two blades and a third

grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided

for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet,

consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10) Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched

particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point

where they exit from the apparatus.

Listening caution

Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider

how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s

Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come

through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion—and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.

We recommend that you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.

Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually

be loud and harmful to your hearing.

Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.

To establish a safe level:

¡ Start your volume control at a low setting.

¡ Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.

Once you have established a comfortable sound level:

¡ Set the dial and leave it there.

Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.

7 Connecting a television with COMPONENT VIDEO IN

terminals

COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals

These terminals can be used for either interlace or progressive

output and provide a purer picture than the S-VIDEO OUT

terminal. Connection using these terminals outputs the color

difference signals (PB/PR) and luminance signal (Y) separately in

order to achieve high fidelity in reproducing colors.

¡The description of the component video input terminals

depends on the television or monitor (e.g. Y/PB/PR, Y/B-Y/R-Y,

Y/CB/CR). Connect to terminals of the same color.

¡After making this connection, change the black level for a better

picture (A page 28, Video – Black Level Control).

To enjoy progressive video

¡Connect to the component video (480P) input terminals on a

television compatible with this unit’s copy guard system.

(Video will not be displayed correctly if connected to an

incompatible television.)

¡Press [PROGRESSIVE] on the main unit so “PROG.” appears

on the display (A page 12).

¡All televisions manufactured by Panasonic and that have

480P input connectors are compatible. Consult the

manufacturer if you have another brand of television.

7Connecting a television with a VIDEO IN terminal

Connect directly to your television.

Do not connect the unit through a video cassette recorder, because

the picture may not be played correctly due to the copy guard.

7 Connecting a television with an S-VIDEO IN terminal

S-VIDEO OUT terminal

The S-VIDEO OUT terminal achieves a more vivid picture than the

VIDEO OUT terminal by separating the chrominance (C) and

luminance (Y) signals. (Actual results depend on the television.)

Notes on speaker use

¡You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful life if

you play sound at high levels over extended periods.

¡Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid damage.

–When playing distorted sound.

–When the speakers are receiving howling from a record

player, noise from FM broadcasts, or continuous signals from

an oscillator, test disc, or electronic instrument.

–When adjusting the sound quality.

–When turning the unit on or off.

If irregular coloring occurs on your television

These speakers are designed to be used close to a television,

but the picture may be affected with some televisions and setup

combinations.

If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30 minutes.

The television’s demagnetizing function should correct the

problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away from the

television.

Caution

¡Use the speakers only with the recommended

system. Failure to do so may lead to damage

to the amplifier and/or the speakers, and may

result in the risk of fire. Consult a qualified

service person if damage has occurred or if

you experience a sudden change in

performance.

¡Do not attempt to attach these speakers to

walls using methods other than those

described in this manual.

Glossary

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.

Film and video

DVD-Videos are recorded using either film or video. Usually, film is

recorded at 24 frames per second, the rate movies are filmed at, while

video is recorded at 30 frames per second.

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.

Interlace and progressive output

NTSC, the video signal standard, has 480 interlaced (I) scan lines,

whereas progressive scanning uses twice the number of scan lines.

This is called 480P. The video signals output from this unit’s

COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals (Y, PB, PR) allow you to enjoy

higher quality pictures than if the signals were output from the VIDEO

OUT terminal or S-VIDEO OUT terminal.

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

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

adjusting the picture.

P: Predictive coded picture

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

B: Bidirectionally-predictive coded 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.

WMA, MP3, JPEG and CD text information

¡Discs must conform to ISO9660 level 1 or 2 (except for extended

formats).

¡This 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 minimum to avoid this.

¡The order in which tracks appear in the menus may differ from the

order shown on your computer.

¡Noise may occur when playing WMA files.

¡You cannot play WMA files that are copy protected.

¡This unit is not compatible with ID3 tags.

¡Compatible sampling rate: 8, 11.02, 12, 16, 22.05, 24, 32, 44.1 and

48 kHz.

¡If 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.

¡To view JPEG files on this unit:

—Take them on a digital camera that meets DCF Standard (Design

rule for Camera File System) Version 1.0. Some digital cameras

have functions that are not supported by DCF Standard Version

1.0 like automatic picture rotation which may render a picture

unviewable.

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

name.

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

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

associated sound.

Order of play

Naming folders and files

Prefix folder and file names with

3-digit numbers in the order you

want to play them.

(CD text only)

When making your own CD text discs

The unit plays the tracks in the order you record them so you do

not have to prefix the titles with numbers.
