Introduction

Your DVD player is equipped with some special features. The following information summarizes

some of these features.

The On-Screen Information Display

The Info Display is a menu bar that you can bring up to access certain features while discs are

playing. Icons represent the different features supported by your DVD player. By selecting

different Info Display icons, you can access features including Scene Snip, Repeat, Audio, Subtitles,

Bookmarks and Camera Angle.

Time Search

The Time Search feature lets you go to a point on a disc by entering the elapsed time in the ot"l-

screen time display. For example, if your favorite scene in a movie is one hour and twelve minutes

after the beginning of the movie, you can enter 01:12:00 into the time display and go right to that

point in the movie.

The Bookmarks Feature

You can bookmark a point on a disc that you can go to quickly with the bookmark feature. You

can store up to six bookmarks. For example, if you have a favorite scene in a movie, you can

bookmark it so you can return to it without having to fast forward or reverse to find the exact

scene.

Ratings Limits and Scene Snip

Your DVD player allows you to set ratings limits and passwords. For example, you can set the

DVD player so that any movie with a PG-13 rating or above requires a password to be entered.

You can use Scene Snip to edit out sections of a disc. When this disc is played, you must have the

password to view the original version.

Since not all discs contain ratings, you can also decide if you want to allow free access or require

a password to view unrated discs.

Scene Again TM

When you are watching a DVD disc, by pressing the GO BACK-AGAIN button on the remote'you

can replay ascene instantly. The Scene Again TM feature goes back approximately ten seconds and

replays both video and audio while turning on the subtitles.

(e)lPruSurround

The TmSurround ®option can be used to simulate a six-speaker listening experience through two

speakers.

Connections &Setup

Things to Consider Before You Connect

Protect Against Power Surges

• Connect all components before you plug any of their power cords into the wall outlet.

• Turn off the TV and/or components before you connect or disconnect any cables.

• Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded. Refer to the Important Safeguards

sheet packed with your DVD player.

Protect Components from Overheating

• Don't block ventilation holes on any of the components. Arrange the components so that air

can circulate freely.

• Don't stack components.

• When you place components in a stand, make sure you allow adequate ventilation.

• If you connect an audio receiver or amplifier, place it on the top shelf so the heated air from

it won't flow around other components.

Position Cables Properly to Avoid Audio Interference

• Insert each cable firmly into the designated jack.

• If you place components above the TV, route all cables down the side of the back of the TV

instead of straight down the middle of the back of the TV.

• If your antenna uses 300-ohm twin lead cables, do not coil the cables. Also, keep the twin

lead cables away from audio/video cables.

Connection Pictures

Audio/video cables are usually bundled together. For better visibility, the connection pictures in

this book show each cable separately (audio left, audio right, and video).

Types of Discs Your DVD Player will Play

• DVD video discs - DVD video discs contain high quality picture and sound content.

• Audio discs - Audio CDs contain musical or sound content only.

Video CD discs - Like DVD video discs, Video CDs contain picture and sound content. The

difference is the amount of information that can be stored on the disc.

1. Remove the battery compartment cover on the back of the remote.

2. Insert new batteries. Match the polarities (+ and -) on the batteries

with the diagram on the remote.

3. Put the battery compartment cover back on the remote.

Important Battery Information

If you're not going to use the remote for a month or more, be sure

to remove the batteries because they can leak and cause damage.

• Dispose of batteries in the proper manner, according to federal,

state, and local regulations.

Any battery may leak electrolyte if mixed with a different battery

type, if inserted incorrectly, if all batteries are not replaced at the

same time, if disposed of in fire, or if an attempt is made to charge a

battery not intended to be recharged.

• Discard leaky batteries immediately. Leaking batteries can cause skin

burns or other personal injury.

Point the Remote in the Right Direction

When you want the remote to operate the DVD Player, point the remote

at the DVD Player, not the TV. The remote has to be pointed in the

correct direction and toward the correct component in order for the

remote's signal to communicate with the sensor on the component.

Make sure there is a clear path between the remote and the component

you want to operate so the signal isn't blocked.

Turn on the TV and DVD Player

1. Turn on your TV and tune to the correct video input channel (see

following page).

2. Press the DVD button on the DVD remote or the ON,OFF button on

the DVD player.

Chapter I 17

How to Find Your TV's Video Input Channel

You need to tune your TV to the Video Input Channel (or S-Video Channel if you connected the

S-Video cable to your TV and to your DVD Player) to see the DVD Player's menu and to see the

content that's on a disc. The video channel on TVs varies for different brands and different models.

In order for your DVD remote to work, your TV must be set on the correct video input channel.

Below are some things to try.

• If your TV brand is RCA, GE, or PROSCAN, press the TV button on the remote that came with

your TV (not the DVD remote). Then press the INPUT button on the remote.

What is a Video CD?

Like DVD video discs, Video CDs contain picture and sound content. Video CDs (VCDs) are

encoded in a different format. VCDs don't hold as much information as DVD discs and the

picture quality is not as high.

VCDs are divided into tracks, and each track is divided into indexes. A track is similar to a title

and an index is similar to a chapter.

The Video CD Disc Menu

A Video CD disc is capable of having an on-screen menu that is separate from the DVD player's

menu system and on-screen Info Display. If the disc has a menu, the menu will appear after the

disc is loaded into the player.

The content and operation of disc menus varies from disc to disc. Check the instructions that

accompany the Video CD for more information on how to use the playback control function for

that specific disc.

If a disc menu appears:

1. Use the number buttons on the remote to select a track (similar to a title).

2. Press OK or PLAY on the remote to begin playback of the selected track.

3. Press CH + _ or CH - _ on the remote (SKIP FWD or SKIP BACK on the player) to scroll

through the tracks.

4. Press MENU to 'stop playback and return to the disc menu or press STOP to stop playback

and return to the DVD player menu.

Maintenance of Cabinet

For safety reasons, when'cleaning the cabinet be sure to disconnect the AC power cord from the AC outlet.

• Do not use benzene, thinner, or other solvents for cleaning.

• Wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth.

Formation of Condensation

Due to sharp changes in temperature and humidity, condensation may form if warm air comes in contact with any cold

parts inside the player.

When condensation forms inside the player, the player may not operate correctly. If this occurs, leave the player at

room temperature until the inside of the player becomes dry and operational.

If condensation forms on a disc, wipe the disc with a soft, dry cloth by moving the cloth from the center hole toward

the outer edge.

Handling Discs

• Don't touch the disc's signal surfaces. Hold by the edges or by one edge and the hole in the center.

• Don't affix labels or adhesive tape to label surfaces. Don't scratch or damage the label.

• Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.

Cleaning Discs

• Dirty discs can cause reduced video and audio performance. Always keep discs clean by wiping them gently with a soft

cloth from the inner edge toward the outer perimeter.

• If a disc becomes very dirty, wet a soft doth in water, wring it out well. Wipe the dirt away gently, and remove any

water drops with a dry cloth.

• Do not use record-cleaning sprays or anti-static agents on discs. Also, never clean the discs with benzene, thinner, or

other volatile solvents which may cause damage to the disc surface.
