• 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 connecting other equipment.

• Ensure that you observe the color coding when connecting audio and

video cables.

• Select the appropriate screen shape at the initial setting “TV Aspect ”

according to your TV set (4:3 or 16:9), see page 26.

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 separates 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 con-
necting 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 con-
nection should be used, providing the audio signal too, (see page 8).
Use separate analog audio connections to TV only if your TV is 
connected to the video or S-video output.

• When the audio signal is 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 DVD10 will
”downmix” Dolby Digital recordings to Pro Logic, available on these
connectors, all analog surround or stereo signals will be fed to them
directly.

When DVD´s encoded in Dolby Digital or DTS are played, the Dolby
Digital or DTS bitstream is output from the player’s OPTICAL or COAXIAL
digital audio output. When the player is connected to a Dolby Digital or
DTS decoder, you can enjoy theater-quality audio in your home. An opti-
cal digital audio cable or coaxial audio cable (both optional) is required
for these connections, as shown below.

• Note: With multiple video sources, your Audio/Video device can be

used for selecting the video signal and routing it to the TV. Connect the
video or S-video output of the DVD10 (whatever is provided with your
device) to the video or S-video input on your device and the video/S-
video output of this device to your TV. For more details, see  the manual
of your Audio/Video amplifier/receiver.

• Your DVD10 is equipped with two SCART connectors, one for direct

connection to the TV, the second (AUX) for throughput of VCR or any
other video source to a TV with only one SCART input. The signal from
this video source will be routed through the SCART connector of the
DVD to the TV automatically when the unit plays (composite video
only).

• Both SCART connectors provide the video signal as well as audio

(stereo L/R) signals.

• The SCART connector for the TV provides the composite video signal as

well as the direct RGB signal, delivering the best video performance
possible. To view RGB video on your TV, the RGB compatible SCART
connector must be used. Configure this connector to RGB (e.g. in the
TV’s menu), if necessary. Note that with RGB video the colour intensity
cannot be adjusted.

• When the RGB video signal is used, DVD´s recorded with the NTSC for-

mat (with regional code ”Zero” ) or 5 can be viewed on Non-NTSC
compatible TVs.

Insert the batteries while observing the correct (+) and (–) polarities.

• The batteries normally last for about one year, although this depends

on how often, and for what operations, the remote control is used.

• If the remote control unit fails to work even when it is operated near

the player, replace the batteries.

• Use size “AA” batteries.

Notes:
• Do not use rechargeable (Ni-Cd) batteries.

• Do not attempt to recharge, short-circuit, disassemble, heat or throw

the batteries into fire.

• Do not drop, step on or otherwise impact the remote control unit. This

may damage the parts or lead to malfunction.

• Do not mix old and new batteries.

• If the remote control unit is not going to be used for a long time,

remove the batteries. Otherwise, leakage may lead not only to mal-
function, but also to skin burn.

• Wipe away any leakage inside the remote control unit, and install new

batteries.

• If leakage should come into contact with parts of your body, wash it off

thoroughly with water.

Point the remote control unit from no more than about 7 m from the
remote control sensor and within about 60 degrees of the front of the
unit.

• The operating distance may vary according to the brightness of the

room.

Notes:
• Do not point bright lights at the remote control sensor.

• Do not place objects between the remote control unit and the remote

control sensor.

• Do not use this remote control unit while simultaneously operating the

remote control unit of any other equipment.
