Important notes for users in the

U.K.

Mains plug

This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13

Amp plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug

proceed as follows:

1Remove fuse cover and fuse.

2Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5 Amp,

A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.

3Refit the fuse cover.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for your jack

outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate

plug fitted in its place.

If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should

have a value of 5 Amp. If a plug without a fuse

is used, the fuse at the distribution board

should not be greater than 5 Amp.

Note: The severed plug must be disposed to

avoid a possible shock hazard should it be

inserted into a 13 Amp jack elsewhere.

How to connect a plug

The wires in the mains lead are coloured with

the following code: blue = neutral (N),

brown = live (L).

¶As these colours may not correspond with the

colour markings identifying the terminals in

your plug, proceed as follows:

– Connect the blue wire to the terminal

marked N or coloured black.

– Connect the brown wire to the terminal

marked L or coloured red.

– Do not connect either wire to the earth

terminal in the plug, marked E (or e) or

coloured green (or green and yellow).

Before replacing the plug cover, make certain

that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath

of the lead - not simply over the two wires.

Advarsel: Usynlig laserstråling ved

åbning når sikkerhedsafbrydere er ude

af funktion. Undgå utsættelse for

stråling.

Bemærk: Netafbryderen er sekundært

indkoblet og ofbryder ikke strømmen

fra nettet. Den indbyggede netdel er

derfor tilsluttet til lysnettet så længe

netstikket sidder i stikkontakten.

Klass 1 laseraparat

Varning! Om apparaten används på

annat sätt än i denna bruksanvisning

specificerats, kan användaren utsättas

för osynlig laserstrålning, som

överskrider gränsen för laserklass 1.

Observera! Stömbrytaren är sekundärt

kopplad och bryter inte strömmen från

nätet. Den inbyggda nätdelen är

därför ansluten till elnätet så länge

stickproppen sitter i vägguttaget.

Luokan 1 laserlaite

Varoitus! Laitteen käyttäminen muulla

kuin tässä käyttöohjeessa mainitulla

tavalla saattaa altistaa käyttäjän

turvallisuusluokan 1 ylittävälle

näkymättömälle lasersäteilylle.

Oikeus muutoksiin varataan. Laite ei

saa olla alttiina tippu-ja roiskevedelle.

Huom. Toiminnanvalitsin on kytketty

toisiopuolelle, eikä se kytke laitetta irti

sähköverkosta. Sisäänrakennettu

verkko-osa on kytkettynä

sähköverkkoon aina silloin, kun pistoke

on pistorasiassa.

Care and safety information

●Power consumption

– When the system is switched to

Standby mode, it is still consuming power.

To disconnect the system from the power

supply completely, remove the AC power

plug from the wall jack.

●Avoid high temperatures, moisture,

water and dust

– Do not expose the player, batteries or

discs to humidity, rain, sand or excessive

heat (caused by heating equipment or

direct sunlight.)

●Avoid condensation problem

– The lens may cloud over when the

player is suddenly moved from cold to

warm surroundings, making it impossible

to play a disc. Leave the player in the

warm environment until the moisture

evaporates.

Analog: Sound that has not been turned into

numbers. Analog sound varies, while digital sound has

specific numerical values. These jacks send audio

through two channels, the left and right.

Aspect ratio: The ratio of vertical and horizontal

sizes of a displayed image. The horizontal vs. vertical

ratio of conventional TVs. is 4:3, and that of wide-

screens is 16:9.

AUDIO OUT Jacks: Jacks on the back of the DVD

System that send audio to another system (TV, Stereo,

etc.).

Bit Rate: The amount of data used to hold a given

length of music; measured in kilobits per seconds, or

kbps. Or, the speed at which you record. Generally,

the higher the bit rate, or the higher the recording

speed, the better the sound quality. However, higher

bit rates use more space on a Disc.

Chapter: Sections of a picture or a music piece on a

DVD that are smaller than titles. A title is composed

of several chapters. Each chapter is assigned a chapter

number enabling you to locate the chapter you want.

Component Video Out Jacks: Jacks on the back of

the DVD System that send high-quality video to a TV

that has Component Video In jacks (R/G/B, Y/Pb/Pr,

etc.).

Disc menu: A screen display prepared for allowing

selection of images, sounds, subtitles, multi-angles, etc

recorded on a DVD.

Digital: Sound that has been converted into

numerical values. Digital sound is available when you

use the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT COAXIAL or

OPTICAL jacks. These jacks send audio through

multiple channels, instead of just two channels as

analog does.

DivX 3.11/4.x/5.x: The DivX codec is a patent-

pending, MPEG-4 based video compression

technology, developed by DivXNetworks, Inc., that can

shrink digital video to sizes small enough to be

transported over the internet, while maintaining high

visual quality.

Dolby Digital: A surround sound system developed

by Dolby Laboratories containing up to six channels

right, center and subwoofer).

DTS: Digital Theatre Systems. This is a surround

JPEG: A very common digital still picture format. A

still-picture data compression system proposed by the

Joint Photographic Expert Group, which features small

decrease in image quality in spite of its high

compression ratio.

MP3: A file format with a sound data compression

system. “MP3” is the abbreviation of Motion Picture

Experts Group 1 (or MPEG-1) Audio Layer 3. By using

MP3 format. one CD-R or CD-RW can contain about

10 times as much data volume as a regular CD can.

Multichannel: DVD is specified to have each sound

track constitute one sound field. Multichannel refers

to a structure of sound tracks having three or more

channels.

Parental Control: A function of the DVD to limit

playback of the disc by the age of the users according

to the limitation level in each country. The limitation

varies from disc to disc; when it is activated, playback

will be prohibited if the software’s level is higher than

the user-set level.

PCM (Pulse Code Modulation): A system for

converting analog sound signal to digital signal for

later processing, with no data compression used in

conversion.

Playback control (PBC): Refers to the signal

recorded on video CDs or SVCDs for controlling

reproduction. By using menu screens recorded on a

Video CD or SVCD that supports PBC, you can enjoy

interactive-type software as well as software having a

search function.

Progressive Scan: It displays all the horizontal lines

of a picture at one time, as a signal frame. This system

can convert the interlaced video from DVD into

progressive format for connection to a progressive

display. It dramatically increases the vertical

resolution.

Region code: A system for allowing discs to be

played back only in the region designated beforehand.

This unit will only play discs that have compatible

region codes. You can find the region code of your
