Safety precautions/Accessories/Table of contents

Placement

Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct sunlight, high

temperatures, high humidity, and excessive vibration. These conditions

can damage the cabinet and other components, thereby shortening

the unit’s service life.

Do not place heavy items on the unit.

Voltage

Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload the unit

and cause a fire.

Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully when

setting the unit up on a ship or other place where DC is used.

Power cord protection

Ensure the AC power cord is connected correctly and not damaged.

Poor connection and lead damage can cause fire or electric shock. Do

not pull, bend, or place heavy items on the lead.

Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the AC

power cord can cause electric shock.

Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause electric

shock.

Foreign matter

Do not let metal objects fall inside the unit. This can cause electric

shock or malfunction.

Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric shock or

malfunction. If this occurs, immediately disconnect the unit from the

power supply and contact your dealer.

Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They contain flammable

gases which can ignite if sprayed into the unit.

Service

Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is interrupted,

indicators fail to light, smoke appears, or any other problem that is not

covered in these instructions occurs, disconnect the AC power cord

and contact your dealer or an authorized service center. Electric shock

or damage to the unit can occur if the unit is repaired, disassembled or

reconstructed by unqualified persons.

Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the power source

if it is not to be used for a long time.

prevention liquids or any other solvent.

•

Do not use scratch-proof protectors or covers.

•

Do not use the following discs:

– Discs with exposed adhesive from removed stickers or labels (rented

discs, etc).

– Discs that are badly warped or cracked.

– Irregularly shaped discs, such as heart shapes.

7 Video systems

– This unit can play PAL and NTSC, but your television must match the

system used on the disc.

– PAL discs cannot be correctly viewed on an NTSC television.

– This unit can convert NTSC signals to PAL 60 for viewing on a PAL

television (A page 21, “Video” tab — NTSC Disc Output).

Positioning

ENGLISH

Simple setup

Positioning

Front speakers

Speakers are designed identically so that no left or right channel

orientation is necessary.

Center speaker

•

Vibration caused by the center speaker can disrupt the picture if it

is placed directly on the television. Put the center speaker on a rack

or shelf.

•

To prevent the speakers from falling, do not place directly on top of

the television.

Subwoofer(s)

VK825D

VK925D

Place to the right (

VK825D

) or right and left (

VK925D

) of the

television, on the floor or a sturdy shelf so that it won’t cause

vibration.

Leave 10 cm at the rear for ventilation.

Use only supplied speakers

•

Using other speakers can damage the unit and sound quality will

be negatively affected.

•

Set the speakers up on an even surface to prevent them from

falling. Take proper precautions to prevent the speakers from

falling if you cannot set them up on an even surface.

Notes on speaker use

•

You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful life if you

play sound at high levels over extended periods.

•

Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid damage.

–

When playing distorted sound.

–

When the speakers are reverberating due to a record player,

microphone(s), noise from FM broadcasts, continuous signals

from an oscillator, test disc, or electronic instrument.

–

When adjusting the sound quality.

–

When turning the unit on or off.

If irregular coloring occurs on your television

The front and center speakers and subwoofer(s) are designed to

be used close to a television, but the picture may be affected

with some televisions and set-up combinations.

If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30 minutes.

The television’s demagnetizing function should correct the

problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away from the

television.

Note

•

Keep your speakers at least 10 mm away from the system for

proper ventilation.

•

You cannot take the front net off the speakers.

STEP1

7 Attaching to a wall

Surround and center speakers can be attached to a wall.

Drive a screw (not included) into the wall.

Fit the speaker securely onto the screw(s) with the

hole(s).

30 35 mm

7.5 9.4 mm

4.0 7.0 mm

Wall or pillar

3.0 4.0 mm

•

The wall or pillar on which the speakers are to be attached

should be capable of supporting 10 kg per screw. Consult a

qualified building contractor when attaching the speakers

to a wall. Improper attachment may result in damage to the

wall and speakers.

Caution

•

Use the speakers only with the recommended system.

Failure to do so may lead to damage to the amplifier and/

or the speakers, and may result in the risk of fire. Consult

a qualified service person if damage has occurred or if

you experience a sudden change in performance.

•

Do not attempt to attach these speakers to walls using

methods other than those described in this manual.

Optimum location

Distance: A=B=C=D=E

Positioning for best effect

How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the sound

field. Note the following points:

•

Place speakers on flat secure bases.

•

Placing speakers too close to floors, walls, and corners can result

in excessive bass. Cover walls and windows with a thick curtain.

•

The angles in the diagram are approximate.

These terminals can be used for either interlace or progressive output

and provide a purer picture than the S VIDEO OUT terminal.

Connection using these terminals outputs the color difference signals

Tips for making data discs

• When there are more than 8 groups, the eighth group onwards will

be displayed on one vertical line in the menu screen.

• There may be differences in the display order on the menu screen

and computer screen.

• This unit cannot play files recorded using packet write.

DVD-RAM

• Discs must conform to UDF 2.0.

CD-R/RW

• Discs must conform to ISO9660 level 1 or 2 (except for extended

formats).

• This unit supports multi-session but if there are a lot of sessions it

takes more time for play to start. Keep the number of sessions to a

minimum to avoid this.

DVD-R/RW

• Discs must conform to UDF bridge (UDF 1.02/ISO9660).

• This unit does not support multi-session. The default session only is

played.

Naming folders and files (Files are treated

as contents and folders are treated as

groups on this unit.)

At the time of recording, prefix folder and file

names. This should be with numbers that

have an equal number of digits, and should

be done in the order you want to play them

(this may not work at times). Files must have

the extension (A see below).

WMA

(Extension: “.WMA” or “.wma”)

• Compatible compression rate: between 48

kbps and 320 kbps

• You cannot play WMA files that are copy

protected.

• This unit does not support Multiple Bit Rate (MBR).

MP3

(Extension: “.MP3” or “.mp3”)
