DOLBY DIGITAL AND DOLBY SURROUND
Dolby Digital and Dolby Surround are special sound recording procedures that were originally developed for film. To be able to also use these spatial sound effects at your home, video tapes, TV broadcasting, CDs and LDs have been manufactured with this technology. In contrast to Dolby Surround Pro Logic, stereo channels are also used for both surround speakers in Dolby Digital.
When buying DVDs, video cassettes, LDS and music CDs look out for the DOLBY SURROUND logo and the DOLBY DIGITAL logo. These logos mark all picture and sound media that contain recordings in Dolby-Pro-Logic Surround and Dolby Digital quality.
VHS video cassettes that are only marked by the DOLBY B NK logo do not contain the required information.


Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation. DOLBY, the Double-D symbol and PRO LOGIC are registered trademarks of the Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation.
This system is for a 5.1 decoder with 5 different audible sound channels (right forward, left forward, middle, right rear left rear) plus 1 subwoofer.
SETTING UP THE INDIVIDUAL DEVICES
Operating location of the DVD receiver
Protect the device against moisture and rain. It must not be operated in damp rooms nor subjected to drips or splashes. Do not place any receptacles containing liquids e.g. flower vases, flowerpots on the device. Electrical current can deliver life-threatening shocks when in contact with water.
No objects should enter the device through the ventilation openings as these objects could then touch live parts.
Open sources of fire such as, e.g. burning candles must not be placed on top of the device.
Caution
If fluids or foreign object get inside the device then immediately pull the mains plug. Before re-starting the unit have it checked by an authorised dealer.
Condensed water can build up inside the device when moved form a cold location to a warm location. Leave the device switched off for several hours.
The device should be placed on a stable, horizontal surface to ensure that it sits securely and is not subject to vibrations.. Vibrations can damage the sensitive electronic components inside the device.

The heat generated when operating the device must be able to escape. A build-up of heat causes failure to electronic components.
Do not place the device near other devices that generate strong magnetic fields (e.g. motors, speakers, transformers, etc.).
Caution!
To protect the user's eyes, a distance of at least 2 to 3m should be maintained when looking at the television (4x screen diagonal).
Setting up the speakers
All speakers should normally be located at the same distance to the listener (except for the subwoofer). However, this system also allows you to place the centre speaker and the surround speaker at a smaller distance to listener. The drawing provides you with a suggestion for how to set up the front, centre and surround speakers.

For the right and left channels, the front speakers (A) are set up (A) at the same distance to the listener. For optimal sound, these speakers should form an isosceles triangle to the listener. The tweeters should then be at the same level as the ears of the listener when seated.
For the middle channel, the centre speaker is placed central to the listening position (B) e.g. under the television. The main task of the middle channel is to play back events that come from the centre (e.g. speech) exactly from this location.
The surround speakers should be at a sufficient distance to the left and right of the listener or behind the listener in area (C). They must not be located below the ears of the listener when seated.
The Subwoofoers can be placed anywhere as the base frequencies can not be localised by the human ear. However, sufficient distance form the television must be observed as the magnetic speaker may otherwise cause disturbances to the picture.
Notes:
- The distance between the centre speaker and the surround speakers must not be greater than the distance between the front speakers and the listener.
- The subwoofer should be placed in a corner when possible in order to achieve maximal playback of back frequencies. The other speakers should not be placed in a corner.
- The main direction of the sound from the speakers should not be impinged by furniture, curtains, etc. The listener should be able to see the speakers.
Depending on whether you place the speakers on a flat surface or on the wall, you should stick the adhesive film supplied with the device on the base or the rear of the speakers.
Note on disposal
Make a contribution to the environment!
Packaging and packing aids are recyclable and should always be disposed of accordingly.
Caution!
Keep packing material such as, e.g. packing bags away from children (Danger of suffocation)!
Remove the batteries before disposing of the unit. Old batteries and rechargeable batteries do not belong in the normal household waste.
The device and the batteries must be handed in to a special station for special refuse or to your centre for special resources.
Specialist dealers, specialist markets or sales partners will also accept your dead batteries.

Speaker connection (54)
When connecting the speakers, always observe the speaker connection plan on page 4.
When plugging in the speaker cable at the device (terminal 54) also only plug the black wire into the black socket and the coloured wires into the corresponding coloured socket. Make sure that when connecting the front and surround speakers (red and green), that for the right speaker you connect F/S R and for the left speaker you connect F/S L.
Warning!
Both rear speakers must always be connected. Confusing the connections can ruin the speakers.
After connecting the loudspeakers it is possible to test the sound. The way to do this is explained in the following section.
Tuning of the speaker system
In such multi channel systems, the system must be tuned to the listening position (e.g. sofa) after positioning the speakers. This is termed »noise focusing the system «. The basic setting, once found, must only be changed when the listening position or the position of the speakers has been changed.
Switch on the DVD receiver with the STANDBY switch POWER 6. Using ADJ/VOL + / - 5/40, set the volume to a middle value, about 10-15 dB, (see display unit 10). Take a seat on your sofa.
After the function »TEST TONE« has been set on the screen, the test signal generator transmits the noise (the technical term is "pink noise") for approximately 3-4 seconds to each of the connected loudspeakers in turn. The procedure can be observed in display unit 10.

The following abbreviations are used for each of the sound channels (speakers).
TEST FL
TEST C
TEST FR
TEST SURR
TEST SURL
Front speakers Left
Centerbox (speaker middle)
Front speaker Right
Surround speaker Right
Surround speaker Left
The volume of the respective speaker is to be set with ADJ/VOL +/-40 in such a way that the noise level sounds the same from the position of the listener.
Aerial connection
FM reception:
To connect to the house aerial or to a satellite system, plug this cable in as the connection to the aerial socket FM 50
If a reception is too weak and there is interference from noise on the received station, you are advised to turn to FM Mono (remote control, button 39).
AM reception:
It is also possible to improve reception using the supplied aerial. This aerial should be fixed in place in as high a position as possible. Connect the supplied frame aerial to the AM 49 socket. To plug in the cable, flip the claming lever to the side and re-close it. Then align the frame aerial to achieve the best reception. If reception is too weak and there is interference from noise on the station being received, it may be possible to improve reception by turning and unwinding or winding up the aerial.

Connection to the television set
There are various connection possibilities depending on the connections available at the television and any additional devices. Additional instructions are contained in the respective manuals for the television and the additional devices.
Connection to a television using SCART (46):
This connection possibility offers the best picture and sound quality. Connect the «SCART OUT« 46 scart socket at the rear of the device with the television' scart socket. The required scart cable is contained in the enclosed package.

Note:
Connect the DVD receiver directly to the television and not through the video recorder. The picture quality could be seriously degraded due to copy-protection systems.
Connecting to a television viaVIDEO-(48) or via the S-VIDEO SOCKET (47):

Use the yellow cinch cable to connect the video socket «VIDEO OUT« 48 to the corresponding Video IN socket of the television set, or connect your television set via an S-VHS input. To do this, connect the S-VHS video socket «S-VIDEO-OUT« 47 to the S-VHS input on the television set. You can purchase the cable required at your local store.
If you also want to hear the sound from the DVD receiver over the speakers on your television then an AUDIO connection is also required when connecting the video sockets. To do this, connect the «AUDIO OUT« 51 sockets with the red/white cinch cable to the corresponding AUDIO IN sockets of your television. When doing so, make sure that you maintain the correct polarity (red = right R, white = left L).
Connecting additional units
The DVD receiver is equipped with digital and analog outputs and inputs. This means that you have many possibilities for connecting external devices.

Connecting to the digital outputs:
Warning: A digital audio signal is only available at these sockets when the CD being played contains the appropriate digital information.
Connecting to a digital multi channel A/V receiver or to a digital 5.1 amplifier:
This connection type offers the best sound quality. A digital multi-channel A/V receiver (e.g., MPEG 2 multi channel, Dolby Digital etc.) is required. To do this, connect the COAXIAL OUT « 53 digital output socket at the rear of the device to the corresponding DIGITAL AUDIO IN digital input then connect this to the OPTICAL OUT « 53 socket. The required connection cable can be obtained from your local shop.
Connecting a Digital Audio Recorder (DAT):
Via the digital outputs 53, you can copy CDs to DAT cassettes or to a CD recorder without any loss of quality. To do this, connect the COAXIAL OUT 53 digital audio socket to the DIGITAL IN input socket at the digital recorder. If the digital recorder has an optical input then connect this to the OPTICAL OUT 53 socket. The required connection cable is available form your local store.
Connecting analog playback devices:
You can also listen to the sound from other playback appliances such as a stereo television, stereo video recorder, CD placer, DVD placer or satellite receiver over the speakers of the surround systems by connecting these to the «AUDIO IN« 52 sockets. To do this, connect the sound output sockets (AUDIO OUT) or SCART) of the appropriate device to the sound inputs AUDIO IN « AUX1 « or « AUX 2 « 52. These inputs are identical and can be used as required. Their designations are only used in order for easier differentiation when switching on the sound source. The required connection cable and adapters are available from your local store.
Warning:
- Make sure that you maintain the correct polarity (red = right R, white = left L)..
- To playback, the corresponding source «SOURCE« 13 or «AUX« 28 must be switched to the respective sound source using «AUX 1« or «AUX 2«.
Headphone connection
The socket «PHONES« 11 is for all commercially available headphones equipped with a 6.3 mm jack. For other jacks, use an adapter (available from specialised dealers).
Notes:
- The connected speakers are switched off when using the headphones.
- When plugging in the jack, the system automatically switches over to STEREO.
- The following message appears for a short time when plugging in the headphone jack:

Caution!

Notes about compact disc (DVD, video CD, audio CD, MP3 CD)
Always keep the CD in its cover and touch the edges only. The surface shimmering in rainbow colours must not be touched and should always be kept clean. Do not stick paper or adhesive tape onto the labelled side of the CD. Keep the CD away from direct sunlight and heat sources such as heating.

A CD must also never be left in a car parked in direct sunlight as the temperature inside the car gets very high. Clean the CD with a cloth before playing it. Do not use any solvents such as petrol, dilutions or other detergents.
Clean the CD in a straight line from the centre outwards. Never clean the CD using circular cleaning movements.


Notes about the CD player
If the CD player is not being used, the CD tray should always remain closed to protect the mechanism against dust. However, it is still possible that the lens becomes dirty from dust or is covered by a thin, hardly visible, film. The CD system is then no longer able to scan the inserted CD. In this case you need to have the lens cleaned by a technician.

Caution!
The device is powered by dangerous voltage. The set may therefore be opened by authorised specialists only. All maintenance and service work must be carried out by authorised companies only. Inexpert repair work may endanger the operator's life. Any work on the set done by non-authorised persons on their own account causes the guarantee to expire.
