Audio Out L / R
Analogue sound of a disc being played is permanently available on the two L
and R sockets on your player.If you do not use the recommended Scart-
Peritel connection to the TV set (paragraph 1 on page 3),you must,in
addition to one of the video connections (CVBS ;S-VIDEO ;Y, Pr, Pb)
described on page 4, connect the Audio Out L / R sockets on your DVD
player of your TV set (or amplifier) to the Audio In L / R sockets.
Note: audio sockets and cables are usually identified by a colour code (white for the
left channel and red for the right channel).
To play an Audio DVD on 2 loudspeakers in very high quality stereo, if the Audio DVD
provides a 192 KHz/24 bits signal you should use the 2 stereo channels, L and R
(marked (4) on page 6).

Audio Outputs FRONT,SURROUND,CENTER,SUBWOOFER
The analogue 5.1 Surround sound from an Audio DVD in playback is
permanently available from these 6 sockets for connection to a 5.1 amplifier.
If your amplifier does not have these 6 sockets, use one of the optical
(OPTICAL) or coaxial (COAXIAL) digital audio out sockets according to the
type of cable and plug available. In such case, you will not obtain multi-channel
sound.
Note : for optimum results, use high quality cables and ensure the right and left
channels are connected accordingly.

Optical and coaxial Out sockets
The digital sound from a Video DVD in playback is permanently available at
the optical and coaxial sockets on your player.Use one of these sockets by
connecting it to a decoder or a DTS or Dolby Digital amplifier.Some of these
appliances are equipped with a coaxial In socket (COAXIAL) or an optical In
socket (OPTICAL), while others are equipped with both sockets. Choose one
of the two connections.
Note: In most cases these two types of connection give similar results; the only
difference lies in the type of cable used and the cost of these cables, the coaxial
cable being the least expensive one to buy.However it sometimes happens that
some coaxial cables are parasitised by high frequency interference caused by
household electrical appliances, high voltage electric cables or radio transmitters.
Note : when connecting the optical audio digital cable:
1. Remove the protection cap from the connector and connect it firmly as shown on
the drawing.
2. Keep the protection cap and always reattach the cap when the connector is not in
use, to keep it dustfree.
