Additional information

Screen sizes and disc formats

DVD-Video discs come in different screen

aspects, ranging from TV programs, which are

generally 4:3, to CinemaScope widescreen

movies

, with an aspect ratio of up to about 7:3.

Televisions also come in different aspect

ratios; 'standard' 4:3 and widescreen 16:9.

Set to 4:3 (Letter Box), widescreen

discs are shown with black bars top

and bottom.

Set to 4:3 (Pan&Scan), widescreen

discs are shown with the left and right

sides cropped. Although the picture

looks larger, you don't actually see

the whole picture.

TV system setting

The default setting of this system is AUTO, and

unless you notice that the picture is distorted

when playing some discs, you should leave it

set to AUTO. If you find picture distortion with

some discs, set the TV system to match your

country or region's system. However, this may

restrict the kinds of disc you can watch. See

the table for the kinds of discs compatible with

each setting (AUTO, PAL and NTSC).

Switch the unit into standby, then press

SHIFT+SYSTEM SETUP .

Press ENTER .

The display briefly shows WELCOME and then

the new TV system setting, AUTO, NTSC or

PAL. The player then switches on.

Note

1 Many widescreen discs override the system's settings so that the disc is shown in letterbox format regardless of the setting.

2 • Using the 16:9 (Wide) setting with a standard 4:3 TV, or one of the 4:3 settings with a widescreen TV, will result in distortion.

• When you watch discs recorded in 4:3 format, you can use the TV controls to select how the picture is presented. Your TV

may offer various zoom and stretch options; see the instructions that came with your TV for details.

• Some movie aspect ratios are wider than 16:9, so even with a widescreen TV, these discs will still play in a 'letterbox' style.

3 Most models of the newly developed countdown PAL TV system detect 50 Hz (PAL)/60 Hz (NTSC) and automatically switch

vertical amplitude, resulting in a display without vertical shrinkage. However, in some cases, the image may appear without col-

or. If your PAL TV does not have a V-Hold control, you may not be able to watch NTSC discs because of picture roll. If the TV has

a V-Hold control, adjust it until the picture stops rolling. On some TVs, the picture may shrink vertically, leaving black bands at

the top and bottom of the screen.

If you need to switch the TV system setting

again, switch the player into standby and

repeat the process.

maintenance and precautions

Cleaning the exterior

• Use a polishing cloth or dry cloth to wipe

off dust and dirt. If the surfaces are very

dirty, wipe with a soft cloth dipped in some

neutral cleanser diluted five or six times

with water and wrung out well, then wipe

again with a dry cloth.

• Do not use furniture wax or cleaners. Never

use thinners, benzine or insecticide sprays

or other chemicals on or near this unit

since they will corrode the surface.

• If you use a chemical-impregnated

cleaning cloth, read the instructions

carefully before use. These cloths may

leave smear marks on half-mirror finish

surfaces; if this happens, finish with a dry

cloth.

• Make sure to unplug the unit when

cleaning.
