Speaker connection (54)
When connecting the speakers, always observe the
speaker connection plan on page 4.
When plugging in the speaker cable at the device (termi-
nal 54) also only plug the black wire into the black socket
and the coloured wires into the corresponding coloured
socket. Make sure that when connecting the front and
surround speakers (red and green), that for the right
speaker you connect F/S R and for the left speaker you
connect F/S L.
Warning!
Both rear speakers must always be connected. Confu-
sing the connections can ruin the speakers.
After connecting the loudspeakers it is possible to test the
sound. The way to do this is explained in the following
section.
Tuning of the speaker system
In such multi channel systems, the system must be tuned
to the listening position (e.g. sofa) after positioning the
speakers. This is termed »noise focusing the system«.
The basicsetting, once found, must only be changed
when the listening position or the position of the speakers
has been changed.
Switch on the DVD receiver with the STANDBY switch
»POWER« 6. Using »ADJ/VOL +/-« 5/40, set the volume
to a middle value, about 10-15 dB, (see display unit 10).
Take a seat on your sofa.
After the function »TEST TONE« has been set on the
screen, the test signal generator transmits the noise (the
technical term is "pink noise") for approximately 3-4
seconds to each of the connected loudspeakers in turn.
The procedure can be observed in display unit 10.

Aerial connection
FM reception:
To connect to the house aerial or to a satellite system,
plug this cable in as the connection to the aerial socket
»FM« 50.
If a reception is too weak and there is interference from
noise on the received station, you are advised to turn to
FM Mono (remote control, button 39).
AM reception:
It is also possible to improve reception using the supplied
aerial. This aerial should be fixed in place in as high a po-
sition as possible. Connect the supplied frame aerial to
the »AM« 49 socket. To plug in the cable, flip the claming
lever to the side and re-close it. Then align the frame aeri-
al to achieve the best reception. If reception is too weak
and there is interference from noise on the station being
received, it may be possible to improve reception by tur-
ning and unwinding or winding up the aerial.
Connection to the television set
There are various connection possibilities depending on
the connections available at the television and any addi-
tional devices. Additional instructions are contained in the
respective manuals for the television and the additional
devices.
Connection to a television using SCART (46):
This connection possibility offers the best picture and so-
und quality. Connect the »SCART OUT« 46 scart socket
at the rear of the device with the television' scart socket.
The required scart cable is contained in the enclosed
package.
Note:
Connect the DVD receiver directly to the television and
not through the video recorder. The picture quality could
be seriously degraded due to copy-protection systems.
