Notes on playing DTS sound tracks on a CD
• When playing DTS-encoded CDs,
excessive noise will be heard from the
analog stereo jacks. To avoid possible
damage to the audio system, the consumer
should take proper precautions when the
analog stereo jacks of the player are
connected to an amplification system. To
enjoy DTS Digital Surround TM playback, an
external 5.l-channel decoder system must
be connected to the digital jack of the
player.
• Set the sound to "STEREO" using the
AUDIO button when you play DTS sound
tracks on a CD (page 40).
• Do not play DTS sound tracks without first
connecting the player to an audio
component having a built-in DTS decoder.
The player outputs the DTS signal via the
DIGITAL OUT (COAXIAL) jack even if
"DTS" in "AUDIO SETUP" is set to "OFF"
in the Setup Display (page 58), and may
affect your ears or cause your speakers to be
damaged.

Notes on playing DVDs with a DTS sound
track
• DTS audio signals are output only through
the DIGITAL OUT (COAXIAL) jack.
• When you play a DVD with DTS sound
tracks, set "DTS" to "ON" in "AUDIO
SETUP" (page 58).
• If you connect the player to audio
equipment without a DTS decoder, do not
set "DTS" m "ON" in "AUDIO SETUP"
(page 58). A loud noise may come out from
the speakers, affecting your ears or causing
the speakers to be damaged.
