• ... not in the immediate vicinity of water, for example in the
bath tub or in the swimming pool. Do not place containers
filled with water, for example flower vases, on the DVD
player.
Warning!
If water runs into the DVD player or if it falls into water it
can be irreparably damaged and the risk of an electric shock
exists!
• ... not in cupboards, on shelves or other enclosed furnishings
as well as not on beds and covers because the ventilation
of the DVD player will be impaired and it could overheat.
For the same reason do not place another piece of equipment
(i.e. a television) on the DVD player.
In order to guarantee sufficient ventilation the selected location
of the DVD player must provide for a clearance of at least 10 cm
at the rear, on top, and on either side from walls and any other
object.
• This device must not be placed in the immediate vicinity
of flammable materials, for example curtains, flammable
liquids etc.

Do not plug the DVD player into an electrical outlet at this
time. Wait until you have connected the DVD player to a tele-
vision set.
In the event that you wish to change the type of video or
audio connection you must first pull the power plug from
the power socket! Otherwise the DVD player and possibly
equipment connected to it could become irreparably damaged
through voltage peak strikes!
Warning!
Equipment connected to a power supply can be damaged
during a thunderstorm. You should therefore always pull the
power plug from the power socket when there is a storm.
IMPORTANT!
The main switch on the front panel is used for the ON/OFF
function. It is not used as a disconnect switch for the mains
voltage. The power plug is used for disconnecting the mains
voltage. In order to completely disconnect the equipment
