DOLBY DIGITAL AND DOLBY SURROUND
Dolby Digital and Dolby Surround are special sound
recording procedures that were originally developed for
film. To be able to also use these spatial sound effects at
your home, video tapes, TV broadcasting, CDs and LDs
have been manufactured with this technology.
In contrast to Dolby Surround Pro Logic, stereo channels
are also used for both surround speakers in Dolby Digital.
When buying DVDs, video cassettes, LDS and music
CDs look out for the
go. These logos mark all picture and sound media that
contain recordings in Dolby-Pro-Logic Surround and Dol-
by Digital quality.
SETTING UP THE INDIVIDUAL DEVICES
Operating location of the DVD receiver
Protect the device against moisture and rain. It must not
be operated in damp rooms nor subjected to drips or
splashes. Do not place any receptacles containing liquids
e.g. flower vases, flowerpots on the device. Electrical
current can deliver life-threatening shocks when in
contact with water.
No objects should enter the device through the ventilation
openings as these objects could then touch live parts.
Open sources of fire such as, e.g. burning candles
must not be placed on top of the device.
Caution
If fluids or foreign object get inside the device then
immediately pull the mains plug. Before re-starting the
unit have it checked by an authorised dealer.
Condensed water can build up inside the device when
moved form a cold location to a warm location. Leave the
device switched off for several hours.
The device should be placed on a stable, horizontal sur-
face to ensure that it sits securely and is not subject to vi-
brations.. Vibrations can damage the sensitive electro-
nic components inside the device.
The heat generated when operating the device must be
able to escape. A build-up of heat causes failure to el-
ectronic components.
Do not place the device near other devices that generate
strong magnetic fields (e.g. motors, speakers,
transformers, etc.).

This system is for a 5.1 decoder with 5 different audible
sound channels (right forward, left forward, middle, right
rear left rear) plus 1 subwoofer.
Caution!
To protect the user's eyes, a distance of at least 2 to 3m
should be maintained when looking at the television (4x
screen diagonal).
Setting up the speakers
All speakers should normally be located at the same di-
stance to the listener (except for the subwoofer).
However, this system also allows you to place the centre
speaker and the surround speaker at a smaller distance
to listener. The drawing provides you with a suggestion
for how to set up the front, centre and surround speakers.
For the right and left channels, the front speakers (A)
are set up (A) at the same distance to the listener. For
optimal sound, these speakers should form an isosceles
triangle to the listener. The tweeters should then be at the
same level as the ears of the listener when seated.
