Warning
When playing DTS-encoded discs (DVD video discs and audio CDs), excessive noise may be output from the analog stereo
jacks. To avoid possible damage to the audio system, you should take proper precautions when the ANALOG AUDIO OUT
(L/R) jacks of the DVD video player are connected to an amplification system. To enjoy DTS Digital Surround™ playback, an
external 5.1 channel DTS Digital Surround™ decoder system must be connected to the BITSTREAM/PCM AUDIO OUT
jack of the DVD video player.
2 channel digital stereo
You can enjoy the dynamic sound of 2 channel digital stereo by connecting an amplifier equipped with a digital audio input and
speaker system (right and left front speakers).
Notes:
• DO NOT connect the BITSTREAM/PCM AUDIO OUT jack of the DVD video player to the AC-3 RF input of a Dolby Digital
Receiver. This input on your A/V Receiver is reserved for Laserdisc use only and is incompatible with the BITSTREAM/PCM
AUDIO OUT jack of the DVD video player.
• Connect the BITSTREAM/PCM AUDIO OUT jack of the DVD video player to the “COAXIAL” input of a Receiver or
Processor.
• Refer to the owner’s manual of the connected equipment as well.
• When you connect the DVD video player to other equipment, be sure to turn off the power and unplug all of the equipment
from the wall outlet before making any connections.
• The output sound of the DVD video player has a wide dynamic range. Be sure to adjust the receiver’s volume to a moderate
listening level. Otherwise, the speakers may be damaged by a sudden high volume sound.
• Turn off the amplifier before you connect or disconnect the DVD video player’s power cord. If you leave the amplifier power
on, the speakers may be damaged.
