preCaUtiOnS

Ensure that the AC power supply in your house complies with the identification sticker located on the back of your player. Install your player horizontally, on a suitable base (furniture), with enough space around it for ventilation (3~4inches). Make sure the ventilation slots are not covered. Do not stack anything on top of the amplifier. In order to disconnect the player completely from the power supply, remove the mains plug from the wall outlet, especially when left unused for a long period of time.

Protect the player from moisture(i.e. vases) , and excess heat(e.g.fireplace) or equipment creating strong magnetic or electric fields (i.e.speakers...). Disconnect the power cable from the AC supply if the player malfunctions. Your player is not intended for industrial use. Use of this product is for personal use only. Condensation may occur if your player or disc have been stored in cold temperatures. If transporting the player during the winter, wait approximately 2 hours until the unit has reached room temperature before using.

During thunderstorms, disconnect AC main plug from the wall outlet. Voltage peaks due to lightning could damage the unit.

Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or other heat sources. This could lead to overheating and malfunction of the unit.

The batteries used with this product contain chemicals that are harmful to the environment. Do not dispose of batteries in the general household trash.

DTS (Digital Theater Systems) DTS provides a discrete 5.1 CH digital audio signal for both music and movie contents and uses less compression than Dolby Digital for richer sound.

iPod You can enjoy music files by connecting your iPod to the AV Receiver with the supplied iPod dock.

DTS Provides a full range of 6 channels by converting a digital PCM or analog stereo signal using DTS digital matrix decoding.

SFE (Sound Field Effect) Using 32bit Audio Digital Signal Processing Provides more realistic surround sound with normal stereo audio sources.

Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) Function Anynet+ is a function that can be used to operate this AV Receiver with a Samsung TV remote control, by connecting the receiver to a SAMSUNG TV using an HDMI Cable. (This function is available only in connection with Samsung TV and DVD player supporting Anynet+(HDMI-CEC).)

DTS-ES (Extended Surround) The DTS-ES (Extended Surround) system is a new multi digital signal format that was developed by Digital Theater Systems Inc.

You can also install it directly over or under the TV.

Surround Speakers SBL SBR SBL SBR

Place these speakers behind your listening position.

If there isn't enough room, place these speakers so they face each other.

Place them about 2 to 3 feet (60 to 90cm) above your ears, facing slightly downward.

Unlike the front and center speakers, the surround speakers are used to handle mainly sound effects and sound will not come from them all the time.

Surround Back Speakers SBL SBRSBL SBR

If you are using two rear center speakers, place them facing forward from behind the listening position.

Place the surround back speaker about 2.3-3.3feet (70 cm to 1 m).

When you attach the speakers to a wall, make sure to fasten them tightly so they do not fall off.

Speaker Configuration

For the best surround-sound experience, you should connect seven speakers and a powered subwoofer.

Connecting Speaker Wire

Loosen the knob by turning counterclockwise.

Insert the bare part of the wire into the hole in the side of each terminal.

Tighten the knob by turning clockwise to secure the wire.

Keep the subwoofer speaker out of reach of children to prevent them from inserting their hands or objects into the duct (hole). Never touch speaker terminals while the power is on. Doing so could result in electric shock. Make sure the polarities (+ and -) are correct.

Connecting the Speakers

Press down the terminal tab on the back of the speaker.

Insert the black wire into the black terminal () and the red wire into the red (+) terminal, and then release the tab.

COnneCting eXternaL DeViCeS/yOUr tV Via HDmi HDMI is a digital standard interface for connection to such devices as a TV, projector, DVD player, Blu-ray player, settop box and more.

HDMI removes any loss of signal from analog conversion, enabling you to enjoy video and audio sound quality as it was originally created in the digital source.

By connecting through the HDMI(High-Definition Multimedia Interface) interface, you can play back digital video and audio.

High-bandwidth Digital Content protection System (HDCp) support To play digital contents through the HDMI connection, both of the connected external device and TV must support High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection System (HDCP). This product supports HDCP.

Compatibility with a TV Supporting HDMI

A TV with an HDMI jack. Video/Audio

A TV with a DVI-D jack (TV supporting HDCP) Video

A TV with a DVI-D jack (TV not supporting HDCP) -

Audio from SACD discs will not be heard. To play a DVD disc whose copyright is protected by CPPM, use a player supporting CPPM.

The quality of the audio output through the HDMI jack (sampling frequency and bit rate) may be limited by the performance of the connected device.

Since HDMI connection supports both video and audio, you dont have to connect an additional audio cable.
