(VERY GOOD) S-VIDEO (not shown): Connect the S-Video cable to the S-VIDEO jack on

the rear of the DVD player. Connect the other end to the

S-VIDEO jack on the TV.

Use these jacks to connect to a TV with progressive video

input jacks, press the HDMI/PS button to select the

compatible resolution of the TV. Progressive scan is a

video scanning system that displays all lines in a frame in

one pass, as opposed to the traditional system, interlaced

scan. This connection provides optimum quality. To ensure maximum picture quality, use three

video-grade cables for connections. Note that it is essential to match the color-coded

connectors with a compatible TV. 

NOTE: IF THE TV SCREEN IS BLANK, PRESS THE HDMI/PS BUTTON REPEATEDLY

UNTIL THE PICTURE APPEARS ON THE SCREEN AGAIN.

(BEST) HDMI (not shown): Connect an HDMI cable (Not included) to the HDMI jack on the

rear of the DVD player. Connect the other end to the HDMI IN jack on the TV. HDMI transfers

audio and video signals, so if using HDMI, there is no need to connect to audio separately.

IMPORTANT HDMI NOTE: When using HDMI as your video source, setup the HDMI in the

General Setup Menu as described later in this manual. If your TV doesn’t have Audio and Video

input jacks and only has an RF jack, you need to connect an FR modulator (not provided).

Follow these precautions when using batteries in this device:

1. Use only the size and type of batteries specified.

2. Be sure to follow the correct polarity when installing the batteries as indicated in the battery compartment. Reversed

batteries may cause damage to the device.

3. Do not mix different types of batteries together (e.g. Alkaline, Rechargeable and Carbon-zinc) or old batteries with fresh

ones.

4. If the device is not to be used for a long period of time, remove the batteries to prevent damage or injury from possible

battery leakage.

5. Do not try to recharge batteries not intended to be recharged; they can overheat and rupture. (Follow battery

manufacturer’s directions.)

Place the subwoofer, front, rear and center speakers in locations as shown/described

here. After correctly positioning the speakers, perform the Tone Test on the AV Amplifier

and adjust the volume controls until the desired sound is achieved. For best results, sit in

the viewing position and have someone adjust the volumes for you; this will enable you

to set the optimal levels.

3. Center Speaker–can be

located on top or below the

Television.

4. Sub-woofer–can be located

anywhere in the room.

Position–The best listening

position is obtained by

positioning the chair, sofa,

etc. in the middle of all the

speakers.

This DVD player is capable of playing the following types of discs: DVDs, DVD+/- R,

DVD+/- RW, Audio CDs, Video CDs, CD/CD-R/RW with MP3 files, MPEG4 and Kodak

Picture CDs. Before you insert a disc in the player, make sure it is compatible.

DVD-ROM or discs recorded using other broadcast standards (i.e. PAL or SECAM) or

CD-G discs.

NOTE: Some discs may note be compatible due to laser pickup, recording formats and

software used. Some technologies and methods used for MP3 file recording on CD-

R/RWs can prevent optimal playback of these files by degrading the sound quality and/or

the ability for the player to read the file.

Both the DVD Player and the discs are coded by region. These regional codes must

match in order for the disc to play. This player’s code is Region 1.
