SAFETY INFORMATION
Verify Line Voltage Before Use
Your DVD280 has been designed for
use with 230-volt AC current and the
plugs are specifically designed for
230-volt applications. Connection to a
line voltage other than that for which
it is intended can create a safety and
fire hazard and may damage the unit.
Depending on the electrical require-
ments in your area or the wiring in
your home, the power cords included
with your DVD280 may not be the cor-
rect ones, and you may need to con-
tact your local JBL distributor to
obtain the correct power cord.
If you have any questions about
the voltage requirements for your
specific model, or about the line
voltage in your area, contact your
selling dealer before plugging the
unit into a wall outlet.
Do Not Use Extension Cords
We do not recommend that extension
cords be used with this product. As
with all electrical devices, do not run
power cords under rugs or carpets
or place heavy objects on them.
Damaged power cords should be
replaced immediately by an author-
ized service center with cords meet-
ing factory specifications.
Handle the AC Power Cord Gently
When disconnecting the power cord
from an AC outlet, always pull the
plug; never pull the cord. If you do not
intend to use the unit for any consid-
erable length of time, disconnect the
plug from the AC outlet.
Do Not Open the Cabinet
There are no user-serviceable com-
ponents inside this product. Opening
the cabinet may present a shock haz-
ard, and any modification to the prod-
uct will void your guarantee. If water
or any metal object such as a paper
clip, wire or a staple accidentally falls
inside the unit, disconnect it from the
AC power source immediately, and
consult an authorized service center.
Installation Location
■ To ensure proper operation, and to
avoid the potential for safety haz-
ards, place the unit on a firm and
level surface. When placing the
unit on a shelf, be certain that the
shelf and any mounting hardware
can support the weight of the
product.
■ Make certain that proper space is
provided both above and below
the unit for ventilation. If this prod-
uct will be installed in a cabinet or
other enclosed area, make certain
that there is sufficient air move-
ment within the cabinet.
■ Do not place the unit directly on a
carpeted surface.
■ Avoid moist or humid locations.
■ Avoid installation in extremely hot
or cold locations, or an area that is
exposed to direct sunlight or heat-
ing equipment.
■ Do not obstruct the ventilation
slots on the sides of the unit, or
place objects directly over them.
Cleaning
When the unit gets dirty, wipe it with
a clean, soft, dry cloth. If necessary,
and only after unplugging the AC
power cord, wipe the unit with a soft
cloth dampened with mild soapy
water, then a fresh cloth with clean
water. Wipe immediately with a dry
cloth. NEVER use benzene, aerosol
cleaners, thinner, alcohol or any
volatile cleaning agent. Do not use
abrasive cleaners, as they may dam-
age the finish of metal parts. Avoid
spraying insecticide near the unit.
Unpacking
The carton and shipping materials
used to protect your new DVD player
during shipment were specially
designed to cushion it from shock
and vibration. We suggest that you
save the carton and packing materi-
als for use in shipping if you move,
or should the unit ever need repair.
To minimize the size of the carton in
storage, you may wish to flatten it.
This is done by carefully slitting the
tape seams on the bottom, and col-
lapsing the carton down to a more
two-dimensional appearance. Other
cardboard inserts may be stored in
the same manner. Packing materials
that cannot be collapsed should be
saved along with the carton in a
plastic bag.
If you do not wish to save the pack-
aging materials, please note that the
carton and other sections of the ship-
ping protection are recyclable.
Please respect the environment and
discard those materials at a local
recycling center.
Remove Front-Panel Protective Film
In order to protect the lens covering
the front panel of your new DVD280, it
is shipped from the factory covered
by a protective plastic film. Before
using the unit, remove this film by
grabbing one corner and gently peel-
ing back the plastic sheet. Note that
the film must be removed for proper
operation of the remote control.
