To prevent this, make sure to take the following precau-  
tions when connecting the speakers.  
Keep the antenna as far away as possible from the TV,  
VCR or any radiation source to prevent unwanted noise.  
Make sure the stripped end of each speaker cord does  
not touch another speaker terminal or the stripped end  
of another speaker cord.  
If you have poor FM reception  
For better FM reception, use a 75 ohm coaxial cable (not  
supplied) to connect the system to an outdoor FM antenna  
as shown.  
Note  
Be sure to match the speaker cord correctly.  
For optimal sound performance, use the supplied speakers.  
Do not connect speakers with an impendence lower than  
the speakers supplied.  
Examples of poor conditions of the speaker cord  
Stripped speaker cord is touching another speaker  
terminal.

S-video provides a better connection for the video portion of the signal  
than composite video (yellow color terminal). When connecting S-video  
cable, a Composite video cable (yellow RCA connector) must also be  
used. S-video provides video output for DVD playback only.  
SAT  
SCART video output  
SCART video terminal provides the best quality for video signal. If there is no SCART socket is available on your TV set,  
check whether your TV has another Video socket (Composite, S-Video) that you can use to connect your player.

Audio Setup  
• This function is available to DVD mode only.  
• When setting TEST TONE on, the unit will give signals  
to each speaker respectively, so you can decide if any  
fine-tuning is needed for that speaker.  
• The test tone function can be activated even when  
there is no disc in the tray.  
Dynamic range setting  
In many listening situations, it is not recommended to set  
the volume too high, and thus the loudest sound must  
be compressed downwards in level. Likewise, the very  
quiet sounds would be inaudible and must be brought  
upwards in level to be heard. Dolby Digital satisfies these  
needs through the dynamic range controlling.  
Selects the dynamic range compression to fit the indi-  
vidual listening situation of the audience. The variable  
range is Softer, Soft and OFF.  
Softer: Audio with highly compressed dynamic range.  
Soft: Audio with partially compressed dynamic range.  
OFF: Audio without compressed dynamic range.  
Downmix  
This function can process a multi-channel audio source to  
a two channel stereo signal. The options are Stereo and  
Off.  
Note: Dynamic range is only applicable on Dolby  
Digital soundtrack.  
Speaker setup  
1 Distance setup  
In order to make the surround sound more effective and suit the  
accoustic conditions in your listening room, you may need to delay  
the signal coming from some of the speaker by setting the distance  
between the speakers and the listening position.  
• This function is to set the distance of the front  
speaker, center speaker and rear speaker.

countries use a different rating system.

modate the ratings systems used in other countries (1 is  
considered material that is least offensive and 8 is consid-  
ered the most offensive).

contain a movie (or a title) that is rated.
