Getting started
Connections
Do not connect the AC power cord until all other connections have been made.
Since different components often have different terminal names, carefully read the instructions supplied with the component
you are going to connect.
Connecting a TV
To view pictures and on-screen displays, connect a TV to the center unit.
Distortion of picture may occur when connecting to a TV through a VCR, or to a TV with a built-in VCR.
You need to set “MONITOR TYPE” on the PICTURE menu correctly according to the aspect ratio of your TV. See page 53.
7 Selecting the color system
This system is compatible with the PAL and NTSC systems. Set the VIDEO OUT SELECT switch on
the rear panel in standby mode to match the color system of your TV. Also make sure that the color
system of a DVD, VCD, or SVCD disc labeled on the package matches your TV.
If you use a multi-system TV, by setting “MONITOR TYPE” on the PICTURE menu to an appropriate
“MULTI” option, the system outputs a video signal by the same format recorded on the disc (i.e. if you
play an NTSC disc, the system outputs a signal by the NTSC format) regardless of the VIDEO OUT
SELECT switch setting. See page 53.
7 Connecting a TV
Connect a TV using one of the following.
You can get a better picture quality in the order—Component video > S-video > Composite video.

scanning mode active. See page 19.
