WARNING:

Warns against dangers to your health and indicates potential risks of injury.

ATTENTION:

Indicates potential hazards for the player or other objects.

i NOTE:

Highlights tips and information for you.

Manufacturer address

ETV

We reserve the right to make technical and design-related changes in the course of ongoing product improvements.

Read the complete operating manual before using the player.

Keep the manual in a safe place. If you pass the player on to a third party, pass on the operating manual as well.

Non-compliance with this manual can lead to severe injuries or damage to the machine.

We assume no liability for damage caused as a result of non-compliance with this operating manual.

The player may only be used in households for private use. It is not suitable for commercial use.

Children

Do not leave the machine unattended, and do not use it if children or persons who cannot assess the risk are nearby.

Children or persons who cannot assess the risks are not allowed to use the player. Keep the player out of reach.

Packaging material must not be used to play with. There is a risk of suffocation.

Power supply

The machine is operated with electrical current, which means there is in principle a risk of electric shock. For this reason, pay particular attention to the following:

■ Never touch the plug with wet hands.

If you want to pull the plug out of the plug socket, always pull directly on the plug. Never pull on the cable as it could tear.

Make sure that the power cable is not bent, caught or run over and that it does not come into contact with heat sources.

Never place the machine on the power cable while it is being operated.

Only use extension cables that are designed for the power consumption level of the machine.

- Keep the appliance away from rain and any moisture.

Only operate the machine if the electrical voltage stated on the type plate beneath the machine agrees with the voltage on your plug socket. The wrong voltage can destroy the machine.

Do not stand vases etc. on the appliance. Water could seep into the appliance.

Do not open the appliance.

Pull out the mains plug if the appliance is not to be used over a longer period of time.

Take care that nobody can trip over the power supply cable.

AEG DVD 4517 - Laser - 2

Transport

Where to position the appliance

In order to avoid damage to the DVD, you should remove it before transporting the appliance.
Never move the machine when it is in operation.

Safe operation of the appliance presupposes that it is positioned in an appropriate place. Therefore observe the following:

  • Protect the appliance against the influence of weather. Never use it in the open-air.
  • Protect the appliance against moisture.
    Never place the appliance on or in direct vicinity of heat sources, such as e.g. hobs, ovens, etc.
    Do not expose the appliance to direct sunlight.
    Place the appliance so that a sufficient air supply is assured. This is to avoid a build up of heat inside the appliance. Make sure that the ventilation slots are not blocked.
  • Protect the appliance against the mechanical vibrations.
    Stand the appliance on a solid base so that it cannot drop down.
  • Protect the remote control against weather influences, moisture and high temperatures (e.g. by direct sunlight).

Operation

The player is able to show a still image on the TV-screen/monitor over an unlimited period of time. This can cause damage to the screen. It is therefore advisable to activate the screen saver Page 60, "System settings".
Do not increase the volume when the player is just playing very quiet sections. This could damage the speaker if very loud passages start all of a sudden after the quiet section.
Do not move the player with a DVD inserted. This could damage the DVD.
Do not put your hands into the DVD-slot. You could be injured.
Place only DVDs or CDs on the DVD-tray, as otherwise the player may be damaged.
Switch the player off by the On/Off-switch if it is not going to be used for a longer period of time.

Setting up and connecting

Intended use

The DVD-Player is solely intended for the following tasks:

Playing of Video DVD/Video CD.
Playing of Audio-CD.

Any other use is considered non-intended use and is prohibited.

Defect

If the machine should become defective at some point:

If the power supply cable for this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or his customer services, in order to avoid hazards.
Should fluid have seeped into the player or if the player has been dropped down or damaged in any other way, the player must be examined by an authorized dealer. Disconnect the player from the power supply and consult an authorized dealer.

Setting up and connecting

Unpacking

Unpack the appliance and all accessories and check that the contents are complete. You will find information about the scope of delivery on Page 39, "Device parts/Scope of delivery".

ATTENTION:

Always transport/send the player in its original packaging to prevent it from being damaged. Keep the packaging for this purpose. Dispose of unnecessary packaging material in accordance with the regulations applicable in your country.

i NOTE:

Get in touch with your dealer immediately if you notice damage caused by transport.

Setting up

  1. Place the player on a stable, heat resistant, horizontal and level surface. Keep a distance of at least 10 cm from walls and objects.
  2. Connect the machine to an earthed socket.

Starting up

Remote control battery installation

WARNING:

Leaking out battery acid can damage your health. Remove the battery from the battery compartment as soon as it is exhausted or if the remote control is not going to be used for a longer period of time. Wipe up leaked out battery acid with a cloth. In case of skin contact immediately wash the affected area. Seek medical advice if battery acid has been swallowed. In case of contact with your eyes wash out the eyes and seek medical advice.

ATTENTION:

Mismatching battery types or new and used batteries must never be used together. Different battery types have different properties. Do not use old and new batteries together. The mutual use of old and new batteries can shorten the lifetime of the new batteries and possibly result in leakage of the old batteries. When disposing of old batteries you should strictly comply with the legal and environmental regulations applicable in your country. Do not throw batteries into fire!

i NOTE:

The lifetime of the enclosed batteries may be shortened because of storage.

  1. Open and remove the battery compartment cover.
  2. Insert two batteries of type AAA/R03 (1.5 V), ensure correct polarity (+ and -). Start with the negative pole (-).
  3. Attach and close the battery compartment cover.

i NOTE:

The signals from the remote control are transmitted to the DVD-Player by infrared light. You should therefore take care that the DVD-Player is not exposed to the direct sunlight. This could make the transmission of signals from the remote control to the DVD-Player impossible.

Effective range of the remote control

When using the remote control direct it towards the remote control sensor in the display at the left hand front side of the player. The distance between remote control and sensor should not exceed 7m. The angle of the remote control to the remote control sensor to right, left, top and bottom should not exceed 30°.

AEG DVD 4517 - Effective range of the remote control - 1

Starting up

Connecting the Video cable

The video cable transmits the video data from your DVD-Player to the TV or the Video-Projector.

There are four different ways of connecting the DVD-Player with your TV/Video-Projector. Select one of these possibilities to suit your replay unit.

i NOTE:

If you do not use a SCART-or Composite-Video-Connection, you must set up an additional Audio-Connection to transmit Audio data (i.e. from the audio track). See section → Page 49, „Connecting the Audio cable“.

The Audio cable must then be connected to the TV or an amplifier accordingly.

AEG DVD 4517 - Connecting the Audio cable - 1

NOTE:

If your amplifi er is equipped with a digital output, you should use the amplifi er. You will experience a much better audio quality, and the installation is much easier.

5.1-Audio signal

If you would like to achieve a replay of almost original quality you should use an Audio output by means of a 5.1-Audio signal.

This method uses 6 speakers. Four of these speakers are placed in the four corners of the room. One speaker is positioned close to the replay device. The sixth speaker serves the output of very low tones.

With this arrangement of speakers a very natural stereophonic sound is achieved.

If your amplifier has no digital input you need six cables to transmit the analogue 5.1-Audio signal.

Proceed as follows:

  1. Plug the Audio jacks into the sockets on the back of the player. Make sure that the jacks are correctly arranged:

  2. (1) Connection for Subwoofer: Bass

  3. (2) Connection for Center speaker
  4. (3) Speaker rear right
  5. (4) Speaker rear left
  6. (5) Speaker front right
  7. (6) Speaker front left

  8. Plug the Audio jacks into the corresponding sockets on your replay device or your amplifier.

About the DVD-Player

With this DVD-Player you can play a vast variety of DVD-formats Page 40, "Technical data".

However, you must be aware that in many cases DVDs are encrypted with a so-called "Regional Code". This specifies for which region in the world the DVD is intended. As an example, the DVDs marked with regional code "1" are intended for the USA and Canada. DVDs with regional code "2" are for use in Europe.

i NOTE:

With your DVD-Player you can only play DVDs with regional code "2". There are both lots of burning and compressing methods as well as high quality differences in (burned) CDs/DVDs. Moreover, the music industry has not yet agreed on a fixed standard for copy protection. This may, in very isolated cases, result in problems when relaying CDs, DVDs and MP3 CDs. This is no malfunction of the player.

Furthermore, there may be isolated problems when playing CDs or DVDs which were created on a PC (e.g. holiday photographs). In case of problems check the settings of the DVD writing program on your computer. You should in particular make sure that the DVD has been finalized. For further information on this matter please refer to the operating manual of your recorder.

Handling CD/DVD

CDs and DVDs are highly sensitive media. Please observe the following points in order to avoid damage or contamination.

  • Hold CDs or DVDs only by their edges.
    Do not expose CDs or DVDs to heat sources (e.g. direct sunlight).
  • Keep CDs or DVDs always in their jewel cases.
    If necessary clean CDs or DVDs with a soft cleaning cloth. Wipe from inside to outside. Do not use any detergents or solvents.
    If you want to write on DVDs: use only a suitable pen. Write only on the upper side!

Terminology

Track: "Track" is the designation for sections on an Audio-CD. This may be a song, the set of a symphony, etc.
Title/Chapter: Video-DVDs are divided into "Title" and „Chapters". A „Title" may be e.g. a particular fi Im, the „Chapters" may be subsections of this fi Im.
MPEG-4: Your DVD-Player is still capable of playing files compressed in MPEG-4 (short for Moving Picture Experts Group-4). MPEG-4 is a compression method able to reduce high amounts of data without a noticeable loss in the quality of pictures and sound.

AEG DVD 4517 - Terminology - 1

Video output

With the option „Video Output“ you determine the signal format to be transmitted to your replay device. Choosing the right signal format depends on the type of connection and the replay device (see also the operating manual of the replay unit).

Older replay units normally only support the so-called interlaced scanning method („INTERLACE“). With this method the image is composed by means of two successively built up fi elds. The fi rst fi eld thereby consists of the even screen lines, the second one of the odd ones. With the „progressive“ Video signal, in contrast, the complete image is build up in a single process. The thus achieved image quality is normally much higher.

The following options are available:

INTERLACE-YUV: Choose this option if your replay device does not support progressive signals and is connected to the DVD-Player by means of a Component-Video cable.
P-SCAN YPBPR: Choose this option if your replay device supports progressive signals and is connected to the DVD-Player by means of a Component-Video cable.
S-VIDEO: Choose this option if your replay device supports progressive signals and is connected to the DVD-Player by means of an S-Video cable.
TV-RGB: Choose this option if your replay device supports progressive signals and is connected to the DVD-Player by means of an S-Video cable or a Composite-Video cable.

i NOTE:

If the DVD-Player is connected to the replay device by means of a Composite-Video cable or a SCART-cable, you may choose any setting from this menu.

TV Type

Here you can adapt the output of the DVD-Player to the TV-aspect.

Concerning the background: If you do not have a wide screen TV the TV-aspect will be 4:3. However, most feature films have an aspect of 16:9, the image is therefore too wide for the TV-screen.

Here you can specify how the replay of the film is to be adapted to the replay device:

4:3 PS: You will only see the middle section of the film. The borders will be cut off ("Pan-Scan").
4:3 LB: You will see the complete width of the film. The film is thus reduced in size, whereby black bars appear below and above the film („Letter-Box“).
16:9: Select this option if you use a wide screen TV for replay. Please note that fi lms, that have been recorded with TV-aspect 4:3 can still be replayed using aspect 4:3. This means, that replaying this fi lm will not require the complete wide screen area of the television.

Center delay/Rear delay

If you use a 5.1-Audio system, you may experience a distortion of the sound impression caused by the distance differences between speaker groups and listener. Sounds that should be heard by the listener at the same time arrive successively.

Here you can delay the output from the central or the rear speakers, in order to achieve a well balanced sound impression for the listener. The setting is made in milli-seconds, the maximum delay for the center speaker („Center Delay“) is approx. 4 milli-seconds and for the rear speakers („Rear Delay“) approx. 12 milli-seconds. Consequently this settings allows to compensate a distance of 1.2 m to the center speaker and of approx. 4.8 m to the rear speakers.

Dynamic Range

The term „Dynamic Range“ describes the ratio of quietest and loudest sound. If the dynamic range is very large, you will experience very quiet and very loud sounds.

This may cause replay problems. Let us assume that you are watching a DVD in a relatively loud environment. You can now increase the volume to be able to hear also the very quiet passages, however with the disadvantage that loud passages will be unacceptably loud. In this case it would make sense to compress the dynamic range (i.e. reduce) and increase the output volume at the same time.

FULL -2/8: The dynamic range is compressed slightly (2/8) to full (FULL).
OFF: The dynamic range is not compressed at all (default).
