Precautions
To Obtain a Clear Picture
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.
Beware of Moisture Condensation
Moisture condensation damages the DVD video player. 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 day, moisture may condense on the optical pick-up lens inside this unit, one of the most crucial internal parts of the D VD video pla y­er.
Moisture condensation occurs during the following cases:
• When you bring the DVD video player directly from a cold place to a warm place.
• 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.
• When you use the DVD video player in a humid place.
Do not use the DVD video player when moisture conden­sation may occur.

WHAT IS MP3?
MP3 is an audio compression technology. The name MP3 stands for Mpeg1 Audio layer 3 and its compression algorithm is based on a com­plicated psycho-acoustic model. This model is based on the fact that the human ear can not hear all the audio frequencies. The human hearing range is between 20Hz and 20kHz and is most sensitive between 2kHz and 4 kHz. As a result, the MP3 compression form is destructive, which means that the compression algorithm causes the file to lose some infor­mation so that it cannot be restored to its original content. When compressing an audio file (encoding) using the MP3 algorithm, you can set the desired encoding level to obtain any compression level you want. The larger the compressed file, the better the audio playback qual­ity. The major ity of the files available on the internet are encoded in 128 Kbits stereo 44kHz which results in a high-quality file that is 12 times smaller than the original!
WHAT IS VCD?
A VCD is the same size and shape of any regular music CD, and pos­sesses the same digital audio, plus good video capability. It is a new video format that offers exceptional high-end digital picture quality and smoothness, over an hour of playing time, full CD-quality, stereo sound, and more. Using MPEG (Motion Picture Expert Group) compression (1:30), VCD’s offer picture quality that is far superior to the Quicktime movies you see on standard VHS tape.
NOTE: When you play back a video CD, you must turn PBC OFF in order to stop the chapter/scene
.
