Precautions
On safety
Caution – The use of optical instruments with this
product will increase eye hazard.
Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet,
unplug the system and have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it any further.
On power sources
The system is not disconnected from the AC power
source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall
outlet, even if the system itself has been turned off.
If you are not going to use the system for a long time, be
sure to disconnect the system from the wall outlet. To
disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead), grasp the
plug itself; never pull the cord.
Should the AC power cord (mains lead) need to be
changed, have it done at a qualified service shop only.
On placement
Place the system in a location with adequate ventilation
to prevent heat build-up in the system.
Do not place the system on a soft surface such as a rug
that might block the ventilation holes on the bottom.
Do not place the system in a location near heat sources,
or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or
mechanical shock.
Do not place anything on top of the cabinet that might
block the ventilation holes and cause malfunctions.
On operation
If the system is brought directly from a cold to a warm
location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture
may condense on the lenses inside the system. Should
this occur, the system may not operate properly. In this
case, remove the disc and leave the system turned on
for about half an hour until the moisture evaporates.
On adjusting volume
Do not turn up the volume while listening to a portion
with very low level inputs or no audio signals. If you
do, the speakers may be damaged when a peak level
portion is played.
On cleaning
Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth
slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do
not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or
solvent such as alcohol or benzine.
On your TV’s color
If the speakers should cause the TV screen to have color
irregularity, turn off the TV at once then turn it on after
15 to 30 minutes. If color irregularity should persist,
place the speakers further away from the set.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Caution: The enclosed system is capable of holding a
still video image or On screen display image on your
television screen indefinitely. If you leave the still
video image or On screen display image displayed on
your TV for an extended period of time you risk
permanent damage to your television screen.
Projection televisions are very susceptible.
Notes on Discs
On handling discs
To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its edge. Do
not touch the surface.
Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.
If there is glue (or a similar substance) on the disc,
remove the glue completely before using the disc.
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or heat sources
such as hot air ducts, or leave it in a car parked in direct
sunlight as there can be considerable rise in temperature
inside the car.
After playing, store the disc in its case.
On cleaning
Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth.
Wipe the disc from the center out.
Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,
commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray
intended for vinyl LPs.
If you have any questions or problems concerning your
system, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

z
You can control TVs using the supplied remote
See page 51.
Notes
• Do not leave the remote in an extremely hot or humid place.
• Do not use a new battery with an old one.
• Do not drop any foreign object into the remote casing,
particularly when replacing the batteries.
• Do not expose the remote sensor to direct sunlight or lighting
apparatuses. Doing so may cause a malfunction.
• If you will not use the remote for an extended period of time,
remove the batteries to avoid possible damage from battery
leakage and corrosion.
Getting
Started
This section describes how to hook up
the system to the speakers, a TV
monitor with audio/video input jacks
and other video component. You
cannot connect this system to a TV
monitor which does not have a video
input connector. Be sure to turn off
the power of each component before
making the connections.

Notes on speaker system hookup
Be sure to match the speaker cord to the appropriate
terminal on the components: + to + and – to –. If the
cords are reversed, the sound will be distorted and will
lack bass.
If you use front speakers with low maximum input
rating, adjust the volume carefully to avoid excessive
output on the speakers.
If you feel lack of bass frequency
Connect an active subwoofer (not supplied) to the
WOOFER OUT jack using a monaural audio cord (not
supplied).
When you connect an active subwoofer, disconnect the
supplied woofer from the SPEAKER WOOFER terminal.
Black Black
To avoid short-circuiting the speakers
Short-circuiting of the speakers may damage the system.
To prevent this, make sure to take the following
precautions when connecting the speakers.
Make sure the stripped end of each speaker cord
does not touch another speaker terminal or the
stripped end of another speaker cord.
Examples of poor conditions of the speaker cord
Stripped speaker cord is touching another speaker terminal.
Stripped cords are touching each other due to excessive
removal of insulation.
After connecting all the components, speakers,
and AC power cord, output a test tone to check
that all the speakers are connected correctly. For
details on outputting a test tone, see page 14.
If no sound is heard from a speaker while outputting a
test tone or a test tone is output from a speaker other than
the one whose name is currently displayed on the front
panel display, the speaker may be short-circuited. If this
happens, check the speaker connection again.

When using the S-video jack instead of the video jacks
Your TV monitor must also be connected via an S-video jack. S-
video signals are on a separate bus from the video signals and
will not be output through the video jacks.
Note
The VIDEO 1 AUDIO OUT L/R jacks output the same signal as
the front L/R speakers. When you select VIDEO 1 using the
FUNCTION button, the signal is output from the front L/R
speakers, but not from the VIDEO 1 VIDEO OUT and AUDIO
OUT L/R jacks.
If you connect a digital satellite receiver with the
OPTICAL jack
The digital satellite receiver can be connected to the
OPTICAL jack besides the VIDEO IN and AUDIO IN L/R
jacks of the system.
The system can input both the digital and analog signals.
The digital signal has priority to be input. If the digital
signal ceases, the analog signal will be input after two
seconds.
If you connect a digital satellite receiver without
the OPTICAL jack
Connect the digital satellite receiver to the VIDEO IN and
