USER MANUAL XD-DV370 AIWA

(FOR USE IN THE UNITED KINGDOM)

This appliance is supplied with a fitted three pin mains plug. A 13 amp fuse is fitted in the plug.

Should the fuse need to be replaced, use a 13 amp fuse approved by ASTA or BSI to BS 1362. When replacing the fuse, you must ensure that any removable fuse covers are correctly refitted.

If you should lose the fuse cover, please contact your nearest AIWA dealer.

Do not cut off the plug from this appliance

If the plug fitted is not suitable for the power points in your home, or the cable is too short to reach a power point, obtain an appropriate safety approved extension lead or adaptor. If in any doubt please consult a qualified electrician.

If the plug is cut off, remove the fuse and dispose of the plug immediately.

There is a danger of severe electrical shock if the cut off plug is inserted into any 13 amp socket.

If a new plug is to be fitted please ensure it contains a 13 amp fuse, otherwise the circuit should be protected by a 5 amp fuse at the distribution board.

IMPORTANT

BLUE — NEUTRAL

BROWN — LIVE

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the colour markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked by the letter N or coloured BLACK.

The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal which is marked by the letter L or coloured RED.

DO NOT connect either the BLUE or BROWN wire of the mains lead to the earth terminal (marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol or coloured GREEN or GREEN/YELLOW) of a three pin plug.

Some DVD discs may not have a region code label even though their playback is prohibited by area limits.

Note on DTS-encoded CDs

When playing DTS-encoded CDs, excessive noise will be exhibited from the analogue stereo outputs. To avoid possible damage to the audio system, the consumer should turn down the volume before playing back such a disc, adjust the volume gradually, and keep the volume level low.

Operated in the same way as audio CDs, these discs allow playback of video pictures as well as sound, but they are not equipped with PBC.

BEFORE USE (CONTINUED)

Handling the unit

When shipping the DVD player

The original shipping carton and packing materials come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the unit as it was originally packed at the factory.

When setting the DVD player

The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR or radio may be distorted during DVD playback. In this case, position the player away from the TV, radio or VCR, or turn off the player after removing the disc.

To keep the surface clean

Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray, near the player. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the player for a long period of time. They will leave marks on the surface.

Handling discs

Do not touch the playback side of the disc.

Hold the disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not get on the surface.

Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

Cleaning the unit

To clean the cabinet

Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use strong solvents, such as alcohol, benzene or thinner, as these might damage the surface of the player.

To obtain a clear picture

The DVD player is a high-tech, precision device. If the optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn down, the picture quality will be poor.

Regular inspection and maintenance are recommended after every 1,000 hours of use. (This depends on the operating environment.)

For details, please contact your Aiwa dealer.

Cleaning discs

Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor picture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the center out.

PLAYING BACK AN MP3 DISC

The DVD player can play back MP3 recorded on a CD-ROM, CD-R or CD-RW discs.

Before playing back an MP3 disc, read the following notes.

Notes on MP3 disc

About MP3

  • An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using MPEG1, the audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call files which have the ".mp3" extension "MP3 files".
  • The unit cannot read an MP3 file which has a file extension other than ".mp3".
  • is displayed on the MP3 menu if a non-MP3 file was included in a directory or folder.
  • Noises may be heard if you play a non-MP3 file that has the ".mp3" extension.

The restriction of playing back MP3

  • This unit can recognize up to 256 including files and folders per disc. A disc recorded with more than 256 cannot be played, including files and folders.
  • The maximum allowable depth of nested folder is 50, including files.
  • The unit may not play MP3 files in the order that you recorded them on the disc.
  • The unit plays only the first session with a multi session disc.
  • The unit plays only audio tracks if a disc contains both audio tracks and MP3 files.
  • It may take over 30 seconds to read the MP3 files, depending on the complexity of the folder tree.

The limitation of indications

  • Up to 14 characters are displayed for the name of a folder or track.
  • Characters other than uppercase letters ("A" to "Z"), numerals ("0" to "9") and underscore ("_") may not be displayed, or may be displayed in different characters.
  • The elapsed playing time on the display window may not be correct when playing MP3 files.
  • Depending on the condition of the recording equipment or the CD-R/RW disc itself, a false folder or file which cannot be played on this unit is displayed on TV screen.

Tips on recording MP3

- Enjoying high quality sound, we recommend to convert to MP3 files with a sampling frequency of 44.1kHz and a fixed bit rate of 128 kbps.

To playback MP3 files in the order that you recorded

1 Writing software which is capable of recording MP3 files in numerical and alphabetical order is required. 2 Include a two or three digit number at the beginning of each file name. (e.g. "01", "02", ... or "001", "002", ...) 3 It's recommended that you use only the root folder (do not create child folder under the root folder).

Glossary

Extension:

An extension is the last three characters which divide a file name by period. The extension shows the attribution of the file.

The extension of the MP3 file is "mp3".

Session:

A session is one section on a disc between the beginning of written data and the end of written data.

A multi-session disc is a disc which has more than two sessions.
