IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read Instructions: All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the product is operated.
1.
Retain Instructions: The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference.
2.
Heed Warnings: All warnings on the product and in the operating instructions should be adhered to.
3.
Follow Instructions: All operating and usage instructions should be followed.
4.
Cleaning: Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol
5. cleaner s. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
Attachments: Use only attachments recommended by the manufacturer. Use of other attachments may
6.
be hazardous.
Water and Moisture: Do not use this product near water (e.g., near a bath tub, wash-
7.
bowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in wet basements, or near a swimming pool and the like).
Accessories: Do not place this product on an unstable c art, stand, tripod, bracket,
8. or table. Use only with car ts, stands, tripods, brackets, or tables recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the produc t. Any mounting of the product should follow the manufacturer’s instructions and should use a mounting accessory recom­mended by the manufacturer.
A product and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven
9.
surfaces may cause the product and cart combination to overturn.
Ventilation: Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation to ensure reliable operation of
10. the product and to protect it from overheating. These openings should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surfac e. This product should not be placed in a built-in instal­lation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer instructions
have been adhered to.
Power Sources: This product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the rating label.
11.
If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your product dealer or local power company. For products intended to operate from battery power or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.
Grounding or Polarization: This product may be equipped with a polarized alternating- current line plug
12.
that has one blade wider than the other. This plug will only t into the power outlet in one direction. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, tr y reversing the direction of the plug. If the plug should still fail to t, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
Power-Cord Protection: Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or
13.
pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and at the point which they exit from the product.
Protective Attachment Plug: The product may be equipped with an attachment plug with overload pro-
14.
tection. This is a safety feature. See the operating instr uctions for replacement or directions to reset the protective device. If replacement of the plug is required, be sure the service technician has used a
replacement plug that has the same overload protection as
the original plug as specied by the manufacturer.
Outdoor Antenna Grounding:
15. If an outside antenna is con-
nected to the product, be sure the antenna system is grounded
so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-
up static charges. Ar ticle 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANS/NFPA 70 provides informa-
Page 4

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
tion with regard to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna-discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode (see gure).
Lightning: For added protection for this product, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna
16.
or cable system during a lightning storm or when it is left unat tended and unused for long periods of time.
This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning or power-line surges.
Power Lines: An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or
17.
other electr ic light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits,
as contact with them might be fatal.
Overloading: Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this
18. can result in a risk of re or electric shock.
Object and Liquid Entry: Never push objects of any kind into this product through openings as they may
19.
touch dangerous voltage points or shout-out parts that could result in a re or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.
Servicing: Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you
20. to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualied service personnel.
Damage Requiring Service: Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualied ser-
21.
vice personnel under the following conditions: a) when the power-supply or plug is damaged; b) if liquid has been spilled or if objects have fallen into the product; c) if the product has been exposed to rain or water; d) if the product does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions as improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualied technician to restore the product to its normal operation; e) if the product has been dropped or damaged in any way; f) when the product
exhibits a distinct change in performance—this indicates a need for ser vice.
Replacement Parts: When replacement parts are required, be sure that your service technician has used
22.
replacement parts specied by the manufacturer or have the same characteristic s as the original par t. Unauthorized substitutions may result in re, electric shock, or other hazards.
Safety Check: Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product, ask the service technician to
23.
perform safety checks to ensure that the product is in proper operating condition.
Wall or Ceiling Mounting: The product should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by
24. the manufacturer.
Heat: The product should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves,
25.
or other products (including ampliers) that produce heat. Read these instructions carefully. Keep these
instructions for future reference.

Disc Care and Maintenance

Optical discs (DVDs, CDs) contain high-density compressed data and need proper handling.

Handling a Disc

Hold a DVD/CD by its edges. Avoid touching the
recorded side of the disc. To remove a DVD/CD from its storage case, press down on the center
retention mechanism of the case and lift the disc out.
Do not subject discs to prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, high humidity, or high tem-
• peratures.
Do not bend or press discs.
To reduce the risk of scratches, always put discs back in their case after use. Store discs
vertically in a cabinet.
Do not place stickers or labels on either side of a disc.
242 min (SS- DL)
266 min (DS-SL)
484 min (DS-DL)

Cleaning a Disc

Use a dry, soft cloth to wipe off any ngerprints and dusts from the playing surface of the disc. Wipe in a straight line radially from the center to the outside edge of the disc. Small dust particles and light stains will not affect playback quality.
Never use chemicals such as record sprays, anti-static sprays, benzene, or thinners to clean a disc. Doing so will damage the surface of the disc permanently.

The remote control transmits a directional infrared beam. Be sure to aim the remote con­trol directly at the infrared remote sensor during operation. The sensor may not be able to receive signals properly if the sensor is covered, if there is a large object between the remote control and the sensor, or if it is exposed to direct sunlight or a strong articial light (e.g., uorescent or strobe lights). In this case, change the direction of the light or reposi-
tion the unit to avoid direct lighting.
