Precautions

Notes on handling

When shipping the DVD video player, the original
shipping carton and packing materials come in handy.

For maximum protection, repack the unit as it was

originally packed at the factory. Take care not to give

it a shock or shake when carrying.

Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near

the DVD video piayer. Do not ieave rubber or plastic

products in contact with the DVD video piayer for a
long time. They will leave marks on the finish.

The top and rear panels of the DVD video player may

become warm after a long period of use. This is not a
malfunction.

When the DVD video player is not in use, be sure to

remove the disc and turn off the power.

If you do not use the DVD video player for a long

period, the unit may not function properly in the

future. Turn on and use the DVD video player
occasionally.

Notes on locating

Place the DVD video player on a level surface. Do not

use it on a shaky or unstable surface such as a

wobbling table or inclined stand. The loaded disc may

come off the proper position and cause damage to

the DVD video player.
When you place this DVD video player near a TV,

radio, or VCR, the playback picture may become poor
and the sound may be distorted. In this case, place

the DVD video player away from the TV, radio, or
VCR.

Notes on cleaning

Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.

• For stubborn dirt, soak the cloth in a weak detergent

solution, wring well and wipe. Use a dry cloth to wipe
it dry.

Do not use any type of solvent, such as thinner and

benzine, as they may damage the surface of the DVD

video player,

• If you use a chemical saturated cloth to clean the

unit, follow that product’s instructions.

The DVD video player is a high technology, precision
device. If the optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts
are dirty or worn down, the picture quality becomes
poor. To obtain a clear picture, we recommend regular
inspection and maintenance (cleaning or parts
replacement) every 1,000 hours of use depending on

the operating environment. For details, contact your

nearest dealer.

Notes on moisture condensation

Moisture condensation damages the DVD video piayer.

Please read the following carefully.

Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you
pour a cold drink into a glass on a warm day. Drops of

water form on the outside of the glass. In the same way,

moisture may condense on the optical pick-up lens
inside this unit, one of the most crucial internal parts of
the DVD video player.

Moisture condensation occurs during the foliowing

cases.

When you bring the DVD video player directly from a
cold place to a warm place.
When you use the DVD video player in a room where
you just turned on the heater, or a place where the
cold wind from the air conditioner directly hits the
unit.

In summer, when you use the DVD video player in a

hot and humid place just after you move the unit from
an air conditioned room.

Do not use the DVD video piayer when moisture
condensation may occur.

If you use the DVD video player in such a situation, it
may damage discs and internal parts. Remove the
disc, connect the power cord of the DVD video player

to the wall outlet, turn on the DVD video player, and
leave it for two or three hours. After two or three
hours, the DVD video player will have warmed up and
evaporated any moisture. Keep the DVD video player
connected to the wall outlet and moisture
condensation will seldom occur.
