• Use the correct type of batteries. Batteries that look similar may differ in voltage.
  • Always replace both batteries at the same time.
• Do not expose batteries to heat or flame.

Range of Operation of the Remote Control

The remote control can be used up to approximately 23 feet/7 meters in a straight line. It can also be operated at a horizontal angle of up to 30° from the remote control sensor.

Connecting the Speakers

Before moving or installing the product, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power cord.

Connect the connecting jacks (4) to the back of mini-compact system.

Make sure the colors of the speaker terminals match the colors of the connecting jacks. Blue(subwoofer speakers)/Red(Main speakers).
◆ Make sure the polarities (+and —) are correct.

Position of the DVD Player

- Place it on a stand or cabinet shelf, or under the TV stand.

Selecting the Listening Position

The listening position should be located about 2.5 to 3 times the distance of the TV's screen size away from the TV. Example: For 32" TVs 2\~2.4m (6\~8feet) For 55" TVs 3.5\~4m (11\~13feet)

Speakers L R

• Place these speakers in front of your listening position, facing inwards (about 45°) toward you.
• Place the speakers so that their tweeters will be at the same height as your ear.
• Align the front face of the front speakers with the front face of the center speaker or place them slightly in front of the center speakers.

Directions in Installing Speaker

• Installation in a place near heating apparatus, under direct lay of light or with high humidity may cause performance degradation of the speaker.
- Do not install on the wall or on a high place of pole or other unstable place to prevent any safety accident caused by falling of the speaker.
- Do not take the speaker near from TV or computer monitor. The speaker near the TV or computer monitor may influence the quality of the screen display.

P.SCAN (Progressive Scan) Function

Unlike regular Interlace Scan, in which two fields of picture information alternate to create the entire picture (odd scan lines, then even scan lines), Progressive Scan uses one field of information (all lines displayed in one pass) to create a clear and detailed picture without visible scan lines.

Press and hold P.SCAN button on the remote controller for over 5 seconds in stop mode.

- Pressing and holding the button for over 5 seconds will select "Progressive Scan" and "Interlace Scan" repetitively.

What is Progressive (or Non-Interlaced) Scanning?

Interlaced Scan (1 FRAME = 2 FIELDS)

Progressive Scan (FULL FRAME)

In interlaced-scan video, a frame consists of two interlaced fields (odd and even), where each field contains every other horizontal line in the frame. The odd field of alternating lines is displayed first, and then the even field is displayed to fill in the alternating gaps left by the odd field to form a single frame. One frame, displayed every 1/25th of a second, contains two interfaced fields, thus a total of 50 fields are displayed every 1/50th of a second. The interlaced scanning method is intended for capturing a still object.

The progressive scanning method scans one full frame of video consecutively down the screen, line by line.An entire image is drawn at one time, as opposed to the interlaced scanning process by which a video image is drawn in a series of passes.The progressive scanning method is desirable for dealing with moving objects.

Note

• This function works only on TVs equipped with component video inputs (Y, Pr, Pb) that support Progressive Video. (It does not work on TVs with conventional component inputs, i.e., non-progressive scan TVs.)
• Depending on the brand and model of your TV, this function may not work.

Selecting the Video Format

Turn off the power and then press REC/PAUSE on the Main Unit.

• By default, the video format is set to "PAL".
  • Each time the button is pressed, the video format switches between "NTSC" and "PAL".
  • Each country has a different video format standard.
• For normal playback, the video format of the disc must be the same as the video format of your TV.

2. Slowly move the antenna wire around until you find a location where reception is good, then fasten it to a wall or other rigid surface.

Cooling Fan

Technical diagram of a mechanical component with a circular fan-like pattern and mounting brackets (no text or symbols)

AM antenna connection

1. Connect the AM loop antenna supplied to the AM and terminals.
2. If reception is poor, connect an outdoor single vinyl-covered wire to the AM terminal. (Keep the AM loop antenna connected).

The cooling fan dissipates the heat generated inside the unit so that the unit can be operated normally. The cooling fan is activated automatically to supply cool air to the unit.

Please observe the following cautions for your safety.

• Make sure the unit is well-ventilated. If the unit has poor ventilation, the temperature inside the unit could rise and may damage it.
• Do not obstruct the cooling fan or ventilation holes. (If the cooling fan or ventilation holes are covered with a newspaper or cloth, heat may build up inside the unit and fire may result.)

Handling and Storing Discs

When you get fingerprints or dirt on the disc, clean it with a mild detergent diluted in water and wipe with a soft cloth.

- When cleaning, wipe gently from the inside to the outside of the disc.

- Condensation may form if warm air comes into contact with cold parts inside the player. When condensation forms inside the player, the player may not operate correctly. If this occurs, remove the disc and let the player stand for 1 or 2 hours with the power on.

Precautions When Using Audio Cassettes

• Check that the tape in the cassette is sufficiently taut.
  • To prevent erasing a cassette that you wish to keep, remove the safety tab on the upper edge of the cassette. To record a cassette, where the tab has been broken, simply cover the opening with adhesive tape.
• When you have finished playing a cassette, always put it back in its case.
• Store your cassettes in a clean place, out of direct sunlight, where they will not be exposed to high temperatures.
• Avoid using 120-minute cassettes as they place unnecessary strain on the tape mechanism.
