[. . . ] HANDBOOK DV89 Arcam DV89 DVD player Safety guidelines Safety instructions This product is designed and manufactured to meet strict quality and safety standards. However, you should be aware of the following installation and operation precautions: 9. Power sources Only connect the appliance to a power supply of the type described in the operating instructions or as marked on the appliance. 1. Take heed of warnings and instructions You should read all the safety and operating instructions before operating this appliance. [. . . ] To change this setting the parental control must be unlocked. The term `Parental level' refers to a standard defined for DVDs. DVD movies may have a parental level between 1 and 8. Note that this only applies to DVD video discs that have the parental level correctly implemented. Some DVD video titles do not respond to parental control settings, and Video CDs have no mechanism for parental control. View All Titles of all parental levels will be played No Adult Only material of parental level 4 or less may be played. This corresponds to the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) rating of PG-13 Kids Only Only material of parental level 1 may be played. Once the rating level has been set, DVD titles with parental level higher than the setting will not play. Sometimes DVD video titles may be produced that have the parental level set for specific scenes, so a disc will play but skip or substitute certain scenes. The relative sensitivity (volume) of different speakers can lead to some speakers sounding disproportionately loud or quiet, relative to others in the system. The trims setting of your DV89 can help to address this inbalance. Test Noise Setting this item to `On' causes pink noise to be generated from the speaker indicated by the on-screen highlight. The noise is at the volume indicated by the slider for the speaker. Setting this to `On' may be useful in ensuring that the relative volume for each speaker is the same. Note that this setting is set automatically to `Off' on exit from this menu page. Trims Trims for all the speakers can be set using the associated sliders. These settings are useful if the speakers have different sensitivities (and so have different volumes for the same input levels). Completing the set-up Complete the setup procedure by pressing SETUP on the remote control. This saves all the data and closes the setup menu. You can press SETUP at any time while in a menu to quit from it. To return to the setup menu at any time, ensure that there is no disc playing and press the SETUP button. Subwoofer/Stereo+Sub trims Both the `Subwoofer' and the `Stereo+Sub' trims control the subwoofer trim setting. `Subwoofer' is the trim used when multi-channel material is being played; `Stereo+Sub' is the subwoofer trim used with 2-channel material. Access setting Access 7/7 Password Rating ­­­­ View all films Password The password setting works in conjunction with the rating setting (the next menu item) to provide a means of limiting content playback by children (parental control). You will see there are four dashes and a padlock symbol. Normally the padlock symbol will be open and this means the parental control is unlocked. Under this condition the rating setting may be freely changed. To lock the parental control, choose a suitable four digit number. [. . . ] Naturally, we aim to support all discs; from time-to-time we issue software upgrades for the player that fixes new problems of which we are aware. Please contact ARCAM customer support for further details. DVD discs are designed to be played only in the region that they are sold in (for example, discs from the USA are `Region 1' and discs from Europe are `Region 2'). Your player is factory-configured to play discs from the region it is to be sold in, and may not play discs from other regions. [. . . ]
