GENERAL INFORMATION  
Care and handling of  
compact discs  
How to handle CDs  
Which compact discs can be used?  
When handling a compact disc, do not touch the surface of the disc  
(reflective silver side –– the side without the label).  
Since compact discs are made of plastic, they are easily damaged. If  
a disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped, the sound will not be  
picked up correctly and, in addition, such a disc may cause the CD  
player to malfunction.  
Many types of compact discs are sold for a variety of uses. The Video  
CD Player can play the following compact discs:  
COMPACT  
Video CD  
for audio and video (moving picture) reproduction,  
including multiplex sound.  
DIGITAL VIDEO  
PlayBack  
Control  
Video CD with Playback Control function  
featuring menu-type operation and super-fine still  
pictures for audio and video (moving picture) re-  
production, including multiplex sound.  
CD Graphics (CD-G)  
for audio and video (still picture) reproduction,  
including multiplex sound.  
'
GRAPHICS  
Digital Audio CD  
Care of the label side  
including single discs  
for audio reproduction.  
Do not damage the label side, stick paper or use any adhesive on its  
surface.  
'
CDs you can't play back  
Storage  
Do not play back CD-ROMs, DVDs, or CD-Is on this equipment. Doing  
so may generate a noise which can damage your speakers.  
Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled one on  
topofanotherwithouttheirprotectivecases,theycanbedamaged. Do  
notputdiscsinalocationwheretheymaybeexposedtodirectsunlight,  
or in a place where the humidity or temperature is high. Avoid leaving  
discs in your car!  
Using the remote control  
The remote control is ready to use when its batteries are installed  
properly.  
Maintenance of discs  
If there are fingerprints or dirt adhering to a disc, wipe it 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.  
To use it, point its infrared light-emitting window toward the display  
window of the player and press a button. The operating range of the  
remote control is up to about seven meters in front of the player and  
within about 30 degrees to each side –– with nothing between the  
remote control and the player interrupting the beam path.  
If pressing a button on the remote control does not produce any  
response, check to make sure it is pointed correctly and try again. If it  
still does not function, check the batteries.  
CAUTION  
Sometimes during play noise or images may be garbled. This is  
sometimes due to the disc. (It may not be up to industry standards.)  
These symptom are caused by the discs, not by the malfunction of  
the Player.  
Page 1  
 
BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME  
Basic connections  
The Video CD Player must be connected directly to a television set or  
an amplifier that is connected to a television or monitor. The television  
set or the amplifier must have audio input jacks for right and left  
channels and a video input jack.  
Select a level, dry location free of dust and vibration, having a  
temperature maintained between 5 and 35°C (41 and 95°F).  
Video out select  
Set the VIDEO OUT SELECT switch on the rear panel to NTSC, PAL,  
or PAL AUTO mode according to your television system.  
NTSC .................... for NTSC exclusive TV  
PAL ....................... for PAL exclusive TV  
PAL AUTO ............ for Multisystem TV  
PALAUTOdetectstheformulaofthedisc(NTSC/  
PAL) automatically and plays the image on the  
screen correctly.  
Connecting the player to a TV or amplifier  
using the Audio Video cord  
First connect the Audio Video cord — before connecting the AC power  
cord.  
Firmly insert the yellow pin plug of the Audio Video cord in the yellow  
VIDEO OUT jack on the rear panel of the player; the red pin plug in the  
red AUDIO OUT (RIGHT) jack; and the white pin plug in the white  
AUDIO OUT (LEFT) jack. (The RIGHT and LEFT output jacks are for  
the right and left audio channels.)  
Then make sure that the television, amplifier or receiver is turned off,  
disconnect the AC power cord, and firmly insert the pin plugs at the  
other end of the Audio Video cord into the matching video and audio  
INPUT jacks.

Notes  
VIDEO OUT  
When you play an NTSC disc in PAL AUTO mode on a PAL  
exclusive TV, the image may be distorted.  
If the signal doesn’t synchronize, change the mode to “PAL”.  
Select the mode before you play the disc. If you change the mode  
during play, images may get distorted. In this situation stop the  
player and reset the mode.  
WhenyouplayanNTSCdiscinPALAUTOmodeonaMultisystem  
TV, the image may blink for a moment. This symptom is caused by  
the Player detecting the formula of the disc, not by a malfunction of  
the Player.

Check the setting of the *LINE VOLTS switch on the rear panel of  
the player.  
1. Press down on the triangular mark of the compartment cover,  
and slide the cover off to open the compartment.  
Change the setting if the switch is not set for the main voltage  
supplied to your home.  
After the audio-video connectors had been connected, insert the  
female end of the power cord firmly into the AC POWER CORD  
socket loceted on the rear panel of the player. Then insert the male  
end of the power cord into the wall outlet.  
When the power cord is connected, the STANDBY indicator on the  
left-hand side of the player’s front panel comes on. [See “overview  
of Controls” for a description of the controls on the player.]  
2. Place the two accessory R6P(SUM-3)/AA(15F) batteries in the  
remote control unit according to the polarity markings (“+”  
and “–”) inside the compartment and on the batteries.

Precautions for the safe use of batteries  
Observe the following precautions for the safe use of batteries. Their  
life will be shortened, they may burst or their contents may leak if they  
are used improperly.  
Removebatteriesfromtheremotecontrolifitisnotgoingtobeused  
for a long period of time.  
Remove dead batteries and dispose of them properly.  
Never leave dead batteries lying around, take them apart, mix them  
with other refuse, or throw them into an incinerator.  
Never touch liquid that has leaked out of a battery.  
Do not mix new and old batteries, or batteries of different types,  
when replacing them.
