Periodically examine the cord of your appliance, and if its appearance indicates damage or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of the appliance, and have the cord replaced with an exact replacement part by an authorized servicer.
Protect the power cord from physical or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted, kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall outlets, and the point where the cord exits the appli- ance.

The DVD+VCR has two separate audio playback systems, the high quality VHS
BROADCAST TYPE (STEREO / SAP / MONO)
Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) carries stereo and/or Second Audio Program (SAP) bilin- gual signals. Set this display to the desired posi- tion when both MTS stereo and SAP signals are received.

AUDIO
Each DVD disc has a variety of audio output options. Set this unit???s AUDIO options according to the type of audio system you use.
AUDIO
Dolby Digital / DTS / MPEG DVD
Bitstream: Select ???Bitstream??? if you connect the DVD+VCR???s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack to an amplifier or other equipment with a Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG decoder.

Off (for DTS): If you select ???Off???, the DTS sig- nal is not output through the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack.
Sample Freq. (Frequency) DVD
If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of handling 96 kHz signals, select 48 kHz. When this choice is made, this unit automatically converts any 96 kHz signals to 48 kHz so your system can decode them.
If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling 96 kHz signals, select 96 kHz. When this choice is made, this unit passes each type of signal through without any further processing.
Check the documentation for your amplifier to ver- ify its capabilities.
DRC (Dynamic Range Control) DVD
With the DVD format, you can hear a program???s soundtrack in the most accurate and realistic presentation possible, thanks to digital audio tech- nology. However, you may wish to compress the dynamic range of the audio output (the difference between the loudest sounds and the quietest ones). This allows you to listen to a movie at a lower volume without losing clarity of sound. Set DRC to On for this effect.
