Analog audio
An electrical signal that directly represents sound.
Compare this to digital audio which can be an
electrical signal, but is an indirect representation of
sound. See also

Aspect ratio
The width of a TV screen relative to its height.
Conventional TVs are 4:3 (in other words, the screen
is almost square); widescreen models are 16:9 (the
screen is almost twice as wide as it is high).
Chapter
Just as a book is split up into several chapters, a title
on a DVD disc is usually divided into chapters. See also

Digital audio
An indirect representation of sound by numbers.
During recording, the sound is measured at discrete
intervals (44,100 times a second for CD audio) by an
analog-to-digital converter, generating a stream of
numbers. On playback, a digital-to-analog converter
generates an analog signal based on these numbers.

Hints on installation
We want you to enjoy using this unit for years to
come, so please bear in mind the following points
when choosing a suitable location for it:
Do...
✓
Use in a well-ventilated room.
✓
Place on a solid, flat, level surface, such as a table,
shelf or stereo rack.
Don’t...
✗
Use in a place exposed to high temperatures or
humidity, including near radiators and other heat-
generating appliances.
✗
Place on a window sill or other place where the
player will be exposed to direct sunlight.
✗
Use in a dusty or damp environment or in a room
where it will be exposed to excessive cigarette
smoke.
✗
Place directly on top of an amplifier, or other
component in your stereo system that becomes
hot in use.
✗
Use near a television or monitor as you may
experience interference—especially if the
television uses an indoor antenna.
✗
Use in a kitchen or other room where the player
may be exposed to smoke or steam.
✗
Use on a thick rug or carpet, or cover with cloth—
this may prevent proper cooling of the unit.
✗
Place on an unstable surface, or one that is not
large enough to support all four of the unit’s feet.
Moving the player
If you need to move the player, first remove the disc,
if there’s one loaded, and close the disc tray. Next,
press
STANDBY/ON
to switch the power to
standby, checking that the
POWER OFF
indication in
the display goes off. Lastly, disconnect the power
cord. Never lift or move the unit during playback or
recording—discs rotate at a high speed and may be
damaged.
