Before Use (Continued)

Precautions

Handling the Unit

When shipping the unit

The original shipping carton and packing materials
come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the
unit as it was originally packaged at the factory.

When setting up the unit

The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR, or radio
may be distorted during playback. In this case,
position the unit away from the TV, VCR, or radio, or
turn off the unit after removing the disc.

To keep the surface clean

Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray,
near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products
in contact with the unit for a long period of time. They
will leave marks on the surface.

Cleaning the Unit

To clean the cabinet

Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely
dirty, use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild
detergent solution. Do not use strong solvents such
as alcohol, benzine, or thinner, as these might
damage the surface of the unit.

To obtain a clear picture

This unit is a high-tech, precision device. If the optical
pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn,
the picture quality will be poor.
Regular inspection and maintenance are
recommended after every 1,000 hours of use. (This
depends on the operating environment.)
For details, please contact your nearest dealer.

Notes on Discs

Handling Discs

Do not touch the playback side of the disc.
Hold the disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not
get on the surface.
Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

Storing Discs

After playing, store the disc in its case.
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of
heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct
sunlight, as there may be a considerable temperature
increase inside the car.

Cleaning Discs

Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor
picture quality and sound distortion. Before playing,
clean the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from
the center outward.

Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine,
thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static
spray intended for older vinyl records.

Notes

• The remote control may not operate when there is any
obstruction between the remote control and the remote
sensor.

• Strong ambient light sources such as a fluorescent lamp
or direct sunlight may cause unreliable operation.

• Using a TV with the same type of infrared remote control
facing the same direction may cause incorrect operation.

• The maximum distance for effective control between the
remote control and the remote sensor is 7 meters.

• Although you can use the remote control within an angle
of up to 30 degrees in any direction from directly in front
of the remote sensor, we recommend a narrower angle for
stable operation.
