Now it's time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion-and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing. Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds "normal" can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts. To establish a safe level: · Start your volume control at a low setting. · Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion. Once you have established a comfortable sound level: · Set the dial and leave it there. Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.

A DVD which contains a movie may have only one title with many or no chapter divisions. Karaoke DVDs may have many titles, assigning a title to each song on the disc. Menu screens do not belong to any title. DVD player functions generally apply to titles on a disc or chapters within a selected title. The player functions available may also vary from title to title, depending on the disc. When discs have a unique title division, it should be noted that search and program functions may be affected. Chapter 1 Title 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 1 Title 2 Chapter 2 How to Proceed in This Manual DVD is an incredible format that presents the highest quality digital audio and video available today. The amount of information that can be recorded onto a DVD disc is remarkable, allowing it to offer numerous functions and features available with no other format. Because using the DVD player and DVDs may be confusing at first, following the order below should help you get through the important stages of getting set up so you can start using your player as soon as possible. Get familiar with the player. Refer to the section "Before Using" on page 9 to confirm that all the accessories were included with the player. If you are new to DVD, it might be beneficial for you to go through the "Names and Functions" section starting on page 10 to get familiar with the parts and buttons on the main unit and remote control as they will be referred to throughout this manual. There is also a list of terms that can be found on page 66 if you are having trouble understanding some of the terminology associated with DVD. DVD-Video Make the necessary connections. No entertainment system seems to be set up exactly the same way. The "Making Connections" section starting on page 15 shows how video and audio connections may be made to suit your home entertainment system. DVD-Audio discs are divided up into units known as groups, and each group is further divided into tracks. Generally speaking, a single song corresponds to a single track, however, tracks may also be divided into indexes. Menu screens and video material common to DVD-Video discs may also be included on some discs. Group 1 Track 1 Track 2 Track 3 Group 2 Track 1 Track 2 Set up the necessary player menus. Before you can begin to enjoy the benefits of the DVD format, it is first necessary to set up the player to output the video and audio information that corresponds to your system. The section "Setting Up the Player" starting on page 20 explains how to use the Setup Navigator, a function that automatically sets up the player corresponding to the answers given in a multiple-choice on-screen procedure. The Setup screen menus, described in the section starting on page 29, are also used in a number of other functions. Learning the procedure for operating these menus will make using this player much easier and more enjoyable. DVD-Audio Video CD/CD Video CDs and CDs are divided into units referred to as tracks (Video CD tracks may also be referred to as scenes). One song generally corresponds to one track. Some tracks are further divided into units referred to as indexes. Video CDs with PBC (Playback Control) also contain menus recorded on the disc which enable easy access to the contents of the disc. When played back on a DVD player, both Video CDs and CDs are considered to be a single title, regardless of the number of tracks. Track 1 Track 2 Track 3 Track 4 Play a disc. When all the connections and setups have been made, you are ready to play a DVD, Video CD, or CD with the player. The section "Getting Started Using Your DVD Player" starting on page 25 outlines the basic player operations. Enjoy the many features available. Once you are comfortable using the basic player functions, you are ready to take advantage of the various options DVD and this player have to offer. The section "Advanced Functions" starting on page 45 describes how to use the features available on many DVDs.

They have identified many key areas of importance that are necessary to ensure the highest quality possible for video and audio playback. The Home THX DVD specification was created to realize the full potential of the format. The THX DVD program is a number of technical and performance specifications developed to make certain that the audio and video quality of every DVD recording is reproduced as accurately as possible. Thus exploiting the medium's maximum potential. MARANTZ and THX have engineered this product to give maximum performance and quality. "At the time of THX Certification of the DV-12S1, widely accepted industry performance standards for the features "Progressive Scan Video" and "DVD Audio' did not exist. While THX sees that these features are present in the MARANTZ DV-12S1, THX engineers did not certify their technical performance." Manufactured under license from Lucasfilm Ltd.
