Setting up your DVD shelf
system
Unpacking and setting up
Your carton should contain:
•
DVD shelf system
•
User Guide
•
Remote control with 2 batteries
•
AV cable
•
FM and AM antennas
•
Speakers (2) with speaker wire
If you need to replace any of these items, call
our help line mentioned in the Warranty section
of this guide.
Carefully remove all the components from the
carton and make sure that you have all the
necessary components before you dispose of
the carton.
•
Remove all packing materials from the
individual components.
•
Do not remove any labels or stickers on the
back panel of your shelf system.
•
Place your shelf system in the location you
want. Your shelf system is designed to be
used on a level, stable, flat surface, such as a
table, desk, shelf, or stand convenient to a
power outlet, out of direct sunlight, and away
from sources of excess heat, dust, moisture,
or vibration.
•
Unwind the AC power cord and extend the
cord to its full length, then plug it into the back
of your shelf system.
Power source
Use the polarized AC line cord provided for
operation on AC power. Insert the AC cord plug
into a standard 120 V 60 Hz polarized AC outlet.
If you cause a static discharge when touching
your shelf system and your shelf system fails to
function, unplug it from the AC outlet and plug it
back in. Your shelf system should return to
normal operation.
Making connections
Connecting a TV
If your television is a high-definition or “digital
ready” television, you can take advantage of
your shelf system’s component/progressive scan
output for the highest quality video possible. You
only need to make one of the following
connections.
To connect to your TV with component or
composite video cable:
•
Connect the
COMPONENT/PROGRESSIVE
OUT
jacks (for best picture), or the
VIDEO
OUT
jack (for good picture) on your shelf
system to the corresponding in jacks on the
TV using the included cables.
Audio connection
To connect to your TV with audio source:
•
Connect the left and right
AUDIO OUT
jacks
on the back of your shelf system to the audio
left and right in jacks on the TV using the
supplied audio cables.
Warnings
•
The system uses a polarized AC plug with one
wide blade and one narrow blade. The plug will
only fit into matching polarized power outlets.
This is a safety feature to reduce the possibility
of electric shock. If the plug will not fit in your
power outlets, you probably have outdated,
non-polarized outlets which should be changed
by a qualified, licensed electrician. Do not file
the wide blade on the plug or use an adapter to
make the plug fit into your outlet.
•
Never connect the AC cord plug to other than
the specified voltage (120 V 60 Hz). Use the
attached power cord only.
Notes
•
Make sure that your shelf system is connected
directly to the TV, then tune the TV to the
correct video input channel.
•
Do not connect your shelf system’s AUDIO
OUTPUT jack to the PHONO IN jack (record
deck) of your audio system.
•
Do not connect your shelf system through
another VCR. The DVD image could be
distorted by the copy protection system.
•
The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR, or
radio may be distorted during playback.
Position the units away from each other or turn
off your shelf system after removing the disc.
Caution
Do not plug in the AC power plug until you have
finished making the system connections.
Notes
•
Progressive scan video quality requires a
progressive scan TV and is possible only when
using Y Pb Pr connections.
•
Once connected, select Progressive Scan as
Video Output in the Setup menu to activate the
feature.
•
Your TV may need adjustment to accept
progressive scan feeds.
