result in potential electrical shock or fire hazards. This product has been
engineered and manufactured to assure your personal safety. In order not to
defeat the built-in safeguards, observe the following basic rules for its
installation, use and servicing.
ATTENTION
Follow and obey all warnings and instructions marked on your product and its
operating instructions. For your safety, please read all the safety and
operating instructions before you operate this product and keep this booklet
for future reference.
INSTALLATION
1. Grounding or Polarization (A) Your product may be equipped with a
polarized alternating-
current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug
will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you
are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug.
If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your
obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug. (B)
Your product may be equipped with a 3-wire grounding-type plug, a plug having
a third (grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding-type power
outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into
the outlet, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.
2. Power Sources Operate your product only from the type of power source
indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power
supply to your home, consult your product dealer or local power company. If
your product is intended to operate from battery power, or other sources,

EN 9
Care and Handling of Discs
How to handle discs
When handling a disc, do not touch the surface of the disc. Since discs are
made of plastic, they are easily damaged. If a disc gets dirty, dusty,
scratched or warped, the images and sound will not be picked up correctly, and
such a disc may cause the unit to malfunction.
Label side
Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesive on its
surface.
Storage
Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled on top of one
another without their protective cases, they can be damaged. Do not put discs
in a location where they may be exposed to direct sunlight, or in a place
where the humidity or temperature is high. Avoid leaving discs in your car!
Maintenance of discs
If there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc, wipe with a soft
dry cloth, moving from the center outwards. If a disc is difficult to clean,
wipe with a cloth moistened with water. Never use record cleaners, petrol,
alcohol or any anti-static agents.
CAUTION
Sometimes during playback, noise or images may be garbled. This is sometimes
due to the disc. (It may not be up to industry standards.) These symptoms are
caused by the discs, not by the malfunction of the unit.

considerable amount of time, it may be necessary to perform the Semiauto or
Manual Clock Set procedure.
EN 17
This unit sets the clock and tuner channels automatically when AC power cord
is first connected to an AC outlet. The antenna cable must be connected for
the Plug & Play setting. The time and date can be set automatically by the
clock setting data transmitted from one of the regular TV broadcast channels.
We call this TV channel the “host channel” and it is a PBS channel in your
area.
A Perform Plug & Play setup.
Connect the antenna cable to the unit. ( pg. 14) Then connect the AC power
cord to an AC outlet. Do not turn on the unit. The clock and tuner channels
will be set automatically.
NOTES:
Auto Clock Set is performed first. “AUTO” blinks on the front display panel
during Auto Clock Set.
Auto Channel Set is performed next. Auto Channel Set scans all the channels
that are receivable by your unit. During Auto Channel Set, the channel numbers
are displayed as they are scanned and set.
When Plug & Play setting has been complete successfully, the correct clock
time is displayed. If you perform Plug & Play setting successfully, there is
no need to perform “Clock Set”
( pg. 24) and “Tuner Set” ( pg. 26). If, however, you want
to add or delete channels, refer to “Manual Channel Set”
( pg. 27).
During Initial Auto Clock Set “AUTO” blinks.
During Auto Channel Set The channel numbers are displayed as they are scanned and set.
Plug&Play Completed The current time is displayed.
- If an incorrect clock time or “ : ” appears on the front display panel, see “What to do if Plug & Play setting failed” below.
INFORMATION
If “AUTO CLOCK” is set to “ON” ( pg. 25), the clock will be adjusted automatically by the host channel every hour (except
11:00 PM, midnight, 1:00 AM and 2:00 AM) using the incoming PBS channel clock setting data. (This automatic clock adjustment can only be performed when the unit is turned off. The clock will be adjusted just on these hours — on the time
displayed on the front display panel, not on the actual real time.) The default setting of “AUTO CLOCK” is “ON”. ( pg. 25)
If the memory backup fails, because a power outage occurs or because the AC power cord is unplugged, Plug & Play will be performed when power is restored to the unit.
What to do if Plug & Play setting failed
If an incorrect time is displayed on the front display panel, you may be receiving the clock setting data of a PBS channel from an
adjacent time zone, or an incorrect PBS channel from a cable TV system. In this case, perform “Semiauto Clock Set” ( pg. 25) or “Manual Clock Set” ( pg. 25).
If “ : ” appears on the front display panel, your antenna cable may not be connected to the unit or there may not be a Host PBS signal available in your area. Ensure that the antenna cable is connected correctly. Then turn on and off the unit; the Plug & Play setting will be automatically reactivated. If Plug & Play setting is not performed though the antenna cable is connected
correctly, perform “Manual Clock Set” ( pg. 25) and “Auto Channel Set” ( pg.
- or “Manual Channel Set” ( pg. 27).

About MP3 Disc
This unit can playback CD discs recorded by the MP3 format (we refer to those
discs as MP3 discs in this manual). Operations for MP3 discs are similar to
those for Audio CD discs, though there are some restrictions and differences.
What is MP3?
MP3 is the abbreviation of “MPEG1 Audio Layer 3.” MPEG Audio is a compression
specification that compresses the audio portion only. This image compression
method is used in DVD or Video CD, etc. The audio data has been compressed
into about 1/10. On an MP3 disc, each material (song) is recorded on each
Track (file), which usually belongs to a Group (folder).
MP3 disc
Track A.mp3 Track B.mp3 Track C.mp3
Group 1
Group 2 Group 4
Track D.mp3 Track E.mp3 Track F.mp3
OPERATIONS ON DVD DECK (cont.)
NOTES:
Because of the disc characteristics or recording condition, some discs may not
be played back or it takes time to start playback.
The unit does not support “packet writing” discs. If there are any Tracks
(files) which are stored on a disc directly
and do not belong to any Group (directory), the unit recognized them as
belonging to an independent Group. The unit does not output a digital audio
signal from DIGITAL AUDIO OUT connector when playing back an MP3 disc. The
unit plays back Groups/Tracks on an MP3 disc in the alphabetical order. For
example, if there are three title Groups [one], [two] and [three] on a disc,
the playback order is [one], [three] then [two]. Tracks in a Group are played
back in the same way. Therefore, an MP3 disc on the market may be played back
in the different order from the order printed on its sleeve.
MP3 control display
The MP3 control display appears on the TV screen and playback starts when an MP3 disc is loaded.

Group 3
This unit can recognize up to 99 Groups and up to 150 Tracks per Group. If a
disc includes more than the Tracks above limit, the unit stops detecting
Tracks when the number of detected Tracks reaches the limit and ignores the
subsequent Tracks. The unit also ignores any non-MP3 file in the disc.
NOTES for making a private MP3 disc using a CD-R/ CD-RW disc:
Select “ISO9660” as the disc format. Finalize the disc.

About JPEG Disc
This unit can playback CD discs recorded by the JPEG format (we refer to those
discs as JPEG discs in this manual). Operations for JPEG discs are similar to
those for Audio CD discs, though there are some restrictions and differences.
What is JPEG?
JPEG is the abbreviation of “Joint Photographic Expert Group.” JPEG is a
still-picture data compression system.
On a JPEG disc, each still picture is recorded as a file, which usually
belongs to a Group (folder).
JPEG disc
File A.jpg File B.jpg File C.jpg
Group 1
Group 2 Group 4
File D.jpg File E.jpg File F.jpg
Group 3
This unit can recognize up to 99 Groups and up to 150 Files per Group. If a
disc includes more than the Files above limit, the unit stops detecting Files
when the number of detected Files reaches the limit and ignores the subsequent
Files. The unit also ignores any non-JPEG file in the disc.
NOTES for making a private JPEG disc using a CD-R/ CD-RW disc:
Select “ISO9660” as the disc format. Finalize the disc.
EN 65
NOTES:
We recommend to record a file at 640 x 480 resolution. (If a file has been
recorded at a resolution of more than 640 x 480, it will take a longer time to
be displayed.)
This unit can only play back baseline JPEG files. Progressive JPEG files or
lossless JPEG files* cannot be played back.
- Baseline JPEG format: Used for digital cameras, web, etc. Progressive JPEG format: Used for web. Lossless JPEG format: An old type and rarely used now.
Some files on a JPEG disc may be played back distortedly. Because of the disc characteristics or recording condition,
some discs may not be played back or it takes time to start playback. The unit does not support “packet writing” discs. If there are any Files which are stored on a disc directly and do not belong to any Group (directory), the unit recognized them as belonging to an independent Group. The unit plays back Groups/Files on an JPEG disc in the alphabetical order. For example, if there are three title Groups [one], [two] and [three] on a disc, the playback order is [one], [three] then [two]. Files in a Group are played back in the same way. Therefore, an JPEG disc on the market may be played back in the different order from the order printed on its sleeve.
