IMPORTANT NOTE:
Caution for optical digital audio output 
connector:
•  When connecting an amplifier (with an optical 
digital input connector) which does not contain 
the Dolby Digital or dts decoder, be sure to 
select “PCM” at “Dolby Digital” and “PCM” at “dts” 
in the Settings for DVD Operation “Selecting 
AUDIO OUTPUT” (see pages 64- 65). Other wise, 
any attempt to play DVDs may cause such a high 
level of noise that it may be harmful to your ears 
and damage your speakers.
•  Be sure to refer to pages 64- 65 regarding output 
settings of Dolby Digital, dts, and PCM.
•  CDs can be played as usual.
Notes on audio output from the optical 
digital audio output con nec tor Enjoying digital audio output from the

*1  The type of audio output from the connector can 
be selected by adjusting the Settings for DVD 
Operation. (See pages 64-65.)
*
2  When LPCM is set to OFF in the DVD Main 
Menu, only 48 kHz sampling/16 bit is output. 
When set to ON, sampling of sound quality 
greater than 48 kHz/16 bit is reduced to 
48 kHz/16 bit. (See pages 64-65.)
For your reference:
•  Dolby Digital is a digital sound compression 
technique developed by the Dolby Laboratories 
Licensing Corporation. Supporting 5.1-channel 
surround sound, as well as stereo (2-channel) 
sound, this technique enables a large quantity of 
sound data to be efficiently recorded on a disc.
•  Linear PCM is a signal recording format used in 
CDs. While CDs are recorded in 44.1 kHz/16 bit, 
DVDs are recorded in 48 kHz/16 bit up to 
96 kHz/24 bit.
•  If you have a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder, 
you will obtain the full benefit of Pro Logic from 
the same DVD movies that provide full 5.1 
channel Dolby Digital soundtracks, as well as 
from titles with the Dolby Surround mark. For 
information on Panasonic or Technics Dolby Pro 
Logic Surround Sound Decoders please contact 
your local dealer.  Turn down the volume, then turn this unit, as 
well as other equipment to be connected, off 
before pro ceed ing with connection.
  Do not block ventilation holes of any equipment 
and arrange it so that air can circulate freely.
