Additional Information
Learning More about This System
Connections (see pages 3 to 5)
Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other
terminals, connecting cords or the power cord. Also, keep
the antennas away from metallic parts of the System,
connecting cords, and the power cord. These could cause
poor reception.
Use only speakers with the same speaker impedance as
indicated by the speaker terminals on the rear of the
System.
The speakers are magnetically shielded to avoid color
distortions on TVs. However, if not installed properly, it
may cause color distortions. So, pay attention to the
following when installing the speakers.
When placing the speakers near a TV set, turn off the
TVs main power switch or unplug it before installing the
speakers.
Then wait at least 30 minutes before turning on the TVs
main power switch again.
Some TVs may still be affected even though you have
followed the above instructions. If this happens, move
the speakers away from the TV.
Daily OperationsPlayback (see pages 7 to 12)
Listening to the Radio:
If you store a new station into an occupied preset number,
the previously stored station in that number will be erased.

When the sound signal from the LINE IN jack stops or is
too weak for about 30 seconds after the System is turned
off.
When you turn on the power again.
QP Link may start working when you just connect the
component to the LINE IN jack or disconnect it. This is not
a malfunction.

Adjusting the Sound:
This function also affects the sound through the
headphones.

Changing the Color System and Scanning Mode:


If you play back an NTSC disc/file with the color system
set to PAL (PRG), the disc/file will be reproduced using
PAL 60 format; however, if the TV does not support this
format, the screen may not display properly.
If you play back a PAL disc/file with the color system set
to NTSC (PRG), you can watch the playback pictures,
but the following symptoms may occur:
The items on the menu will be blurred, and be shown
slightly shifted when highlighted.
The aspect ratio of the picture may differ from the
original aspect ratio.
The picture movement is not smooth.
You cannot change the scanning mode to progressive in the
following cases:
When your TV does not support the progressive video
input.
When you have not connected your TV to the unit using
a component video cord.
When you play back an NTSC disc/file in progressive
scanning mode either NTSC PRG or PAL PRG, the System
outputs the NTSC signal regardless of the color system
settings.

Handling discs

Setting the Daily Timer:


If you do not specify the preset station or track number
correctly while setting a timer, the currently selected
station or the first track will be played when the timer is
activated.
When you unplug the power cord or if a power failure
occurs, the timer will be canceled. You need to set the
clock first, then the timer again.
If you set DVD Video as the source, Daily Timer will not
work correctly.
If you set the Sleep Timer after Daily Timer starts playing
the selected source, Daily Timer is canceled.

Remove the disc from its case by holding it at the edge


while pressing the center hole lightly.
Do not touch the shiny surface of the disc, or bend the disc.
Put the disc back in its case after use to prevent warping.
Be careful not to scratch the surface of the disc when
placing it back in its case.
Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, extreme temperature,
and moisture.
To clean the disc:
Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from center
to edge.

Setup Menu Operations (see pages 30 and 31)

Stains should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the System


is heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in waterdiluted neutral detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean
with a dry cloth.
Since the System may deteriorate in quality, become
damaged or get its paint peeled off, be careful about the
following:
DO NOT wipe it with a hard cloth.
DO NOT wipe it forcefully.
DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.
DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as
insecticides to it.
DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in contact
