How to Proceed in This
Manual
DVD is an incredible format that presents the highest
quality digital audio and video available today.
Because using the DVD player and DVDs may be
confusing at first, following the order below should
help you get through the important stages of getting
set up so you can start using your player as soon as
possible.
Get familiar with the player.
Refer to the section
‘Before Using’
on page 8 to
confirm that all the accessories were included with the
player. If you are new to DVD, it might be beneficial for
you to go through the
‘Names and Functions’
section
starting on page 9 to get familiar with the parts and
buttons on the main unit and remote control as they
will be referred to throughout this manual.
There is also a list of terms that can be found on page
61 if you are having trouble understanding some of the
terminology associated with DVD.
Make the necessary connections.
No entertainment system seems to be set up exactly
the same way. The
‘Making Connections’
section
starting on page 14 shows how video and audio
connections may be made to suit your home
entertainment system.
Set up the necessary player
menus.
Before you can begin to enjoy the benefits of the DVD
format, it is first necessary to set up the player to
output the video and audio information that
corresponds to your system. The section
‘Setting Up
the Player’
starting on page 17 explains how to use the
Setup Navigator, a function that automatically sets up
the player corresponding to the answers given in a
multiple-choice on-screen procedure. The Setup screen
menus, described in the section starting on page 24,
are also used in a number of other functions. Learning
the procedure for operating these menus will make
using this player much easier and more enjoyable.
Play a disc.
When all the connections and setups have been made,
you are ready to play a DVD, Super VCD/Video CD, CD,
or MP3 with the player. The section
‘Getting Started
Using Your DVD Player’
starting on page 20 outlines
the basic player operations.
Enjoy the many features available.
Once you are comfortable using the basic player
functions, you are ready to take advantage of the
various options DVD and this player have to offer. The
section
‘Advanced Functions’
starting on page 39
describes how to use the features available on many
DVDs.
Differences in Disc

All discs are divided up into smaller, more manageable
sections so that you can find specific content more
easily.
DVD discs are divided into one or more titles. Each title
may be further divided into several chapters.
Occassionally, a chapter may contain index points,
effectively dividing the chapter up into several parts, too.
