SETUP AND CONNECTIONS  11

■ Ensure that the power switch of this unit and

other equipment to be connected is set to off
before commencing connection.

■ Do not block ventilation holes of any of the

equipment and arrange them so that air can
circulate freely.

■ Read through the instructions before connect-

ing other equipment.

■ Ensure that you observe the color coding

when connecting audio and video cables.

■ Select the appropriate screen shape at the ini-

tial setting “TV Aspect” according to your TV
set (4:3 or 16:9), see page 22.

Note:
■ If the DVD/CD player is connected to the TV

through a video cassette recorder, the picture
may not be played back normally with some
DVDs. If this is the case, do not connect the
player via the VCR.

■ The S (separate) video output connector sepa-

rates the color (C) and luminance (Y) signals
before transmitting them to the TV set in
order to achieve a sharper picture. Use the S-
video cable (optional) when connecting the

player to a TV set equipped with an S-video
input for improved picture clarity.

■ Most European TV´s are equipped with SCART

connectors rather than with a normal video
input (yellow cinch). In that case the SCART
connection should be used, providing the
audio signal too, (see page 13). Use separate
analog audio connections to TV only if your
TV is connected to the video or S-video out-
put.

■ When the audio signal should be fed to

stereo or Pro Logic amplifiers/decoders or
receivers rather than to the TV, connect the
Audio Out jacks to any normal audio input on
your amplifier/decoder/receiver. The DVD5 will
”downmix” Dolby Digital recordings to Pro
Logic, available on these connectors, all ana-
log surround or stereo signals will be fed to
them directly.
