the AC adapter. Continued use in this state might cause fire, electric shock, or burns.
30. Built-in battery
A lithium ion battery is built inside this player. Before disposing of this player, be sure to remove the
battery, then dispose of it in accordance with community regulations that apply to the disposal of
batteries. For details on removing the battery, see “Important – Disposal of this player”.
31. Coin-shaped Battery
a) Keep coin-shaped batteries out of children’s reach. Be careful not to ingest internally,
especially by children, as doing so may cause poisoning.
b) Do not load a battery into the remote control with the wrong side out.
c) Do not charge, heat, open, or short-circuit the batteries. Do not throw the batteries into a fire.
d) Do not leave a dead or exhausted battery in the remote control.
e) If you do not use the remote control for a long period of time, remove the battery to avoid
possible damage from battery corrosion.
32. After unpacking coin-shaped batteries, store them in poly bags, etc. separately one by one when
unused. If you leave them unwrapped, they may be short-circuited by contact with metal objects,
resulting in battery leakage, heat or bursting. This may cause burns or injury. The batteries must be
completely discharged when they are deposited in collection containers for old batteries. If a charge
remains, countermeasures to prevent short circuits must be taken.
33. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture.
34. Following mark means “CAUTION - RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK - DO NOT OPEN”.
35. Vehicle adapter and operation in a car
a) NEVER operate the apparatus or view a DVD Video while operating an automobile or other
vehicle. Note: doing so is illegal in many jurisdictions. NEVER place an apparatus within the
eyesight of a driver while he/she is driving an automobile/vehicle. Note: an apparatus located in
the front seating section of a vehicle is illegal in many jurisdictions. Failure to observe the above
instructions could result in the driver’s inattention to and/or distraction from road hazards.
b) NEVER place an apparatus in a location where it could interfere with the proper deployment and/or
performance of an air bag. Failure to observe this instruction could result in the prevention of an air
bag to properly and/or effectively deploy.
c) Do not use a vehicle adapter other than the model supplied, to power the apparatus. Do not use
the supplied vehicle adapter to power an apparatus other than this apparatus. Neglecting these
may cause smoke, fire or electrical shock to human body.
d) This adapter is intended for exclusive use in automobiles/vehicles with a DC 12V negative
ground electrical system. NEVER use this adapter with a DC 24V configured or a DC 12V
positive ground electrical system automobile/vehicle. Consult your vehicle owner’s manual
before using this adapter.
e) When handling, using or storing the adapter power cord NEVER:
- Place or locate near any apparatus that produces heat.

adapter, lighter socket and power port may become heated after prolonged use.
i) ALWAYS remove the adapter from the cigarette lighter socket or power port when not in use.
j) Do not leave the adapter connected when you do not use the player. Even though the player
is off, a current will flow through the adapter from the car battery to the battery of the player,
resulting in unexpected troubles with both the player and car battery, including smoke, fire or
electric shock. Disconnect the adapter immediately after powering off the player. Neglecting
this may cause smoke, fire or electric shock.
k) Some cars may not have a compatible socket. NEVER modify this adapter to fit an incompatible cigarette
lighter socket and/or power port. NEVER modify an incompatible cigarette lighter socket and/or power
port to accept this adapter. Failure to observe the above warnings could cause smoke, fire, burns and/or
electric shock.

port fully.
The incomplete insertion may cause smoke or fire.
n) Do not touch the adapter with wet hands. Do not expose the adapter to water of liquid.
36. The mains plug of the AC adapter is used as the disconnect device. Therefore use the AC adapter near the
wall outlet so that the mains plug can be access easily at all times.
