NTSC/PAL Viewing Area Standards

This player was configured to meet the

broadcastingstandard used in your coun-

try or area while in the factory. Under nor-

mal conditions, you need not adjust the

PAL / NTSC setting. Most of Asia (exclud-

ing China) and the Americas use the

NTSCbroadcastingstandard. Europe,Ja-

pan, and China / Hong Kong use the PAL

broadcasting standard. If you use this

product in an area using a standard dif-

ferent from your own, simply turn off the

power, select the appropriate NTSC/PAL

settingon the back of theplayer,then turn

backon the power. Viewingdiscprograms

on hook up TVs with different broadcast-

ing standard will yield

poor image quality.

NOTE

Copy Guard Protection:

When the DVD player audio/video output is plugged into

the A/V input jacks of a Video Cassette Recorder (VCR)

using the audio/video cables, (red, white and yellow

RCA jacks) poor picture quality may result (i.e. screen

on TV getting brighter and dimmer) due to Macrovision

copy guard protection contained on some DVD discs.

NOTE

When the DVD player is used with the battery as a

power source, ensure that the battery has been charged

for at least eight hours prior to connecting it to the DVD

player. In certain situations connecting a low charged

battery to the DVD player can result in a lock up of the

DVD player Controls. If this occurs, unplug the battery

from the DVD player and let the unit sit for 10 minutes

before plugging into the AC Adapter or connecting a

fully charged battery.
