Notes
• DO NOT connect the COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack of the DVD 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 COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack
of the DVD player.
• Connect the COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack of the DVD player to the “DIGITAL (COAXIAL)” input of a Receiver or Processor.
• Refer to the owner’s manual of the connected equipment as well.
• When you connect the DVD 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 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 player’s power cord. If you leave the amplifier power on, the
speakers may be damaged.

Warning
• When you are connecting (via the COAXIAL DIGITAL
AUDIO OUT jack) an AV decoder that does not have Dolby
Digital, Digital Theater Systems (DTS) or MPEG2 decoding
function, be sure to set “Digital Output” to “PCM” from the
on-screen displays. Otherwise, high volume sound may
damage your hearing as well as the speakers.
• When playing DTS-encoded discs (DVDs and audio CDs),
excessive noise may be output from the analog audio output
jacks. To avoid possible damage to the audio system, you
should take proper precautions when the analog audio output
jacks of the DVD 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 COAXIAL DIGITAL
AUDIO OUT jack of the DVD player.
