near the DVD player . Do not leave rubber
or plastic products in contact with the DVD player
for a long time. They will leave marks on the finish.
The top and rear panels of the DVD player
may become warm after a long period of use.
This is normal and not a malfunction.
When the DVD player is not in use, be sure
to remove the disc and turn off the power.
If you do not use the DVD player for a long period,
the unit may not function properly in the future.
Turn on and use the DVD player occasionally.
NOTES ON LOCATING THE DVD PLAYER:

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 benzene, as they
may damage the surface of the DVD player.

the unit, follow that product's instructions.
Warning: Cleaning and adjustment of lenses and /or
other components of playback mechanism should be
performed by a qualified service technician.
TO OBTAIN A CLEAR PICTURE:
The DVD player is a high technology, precision device,

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 depend ing on the opera ting
environment. For details, contact your nearest dealer.
NOTES ON MOISTURE CONDENSATION:
Moisture condensation damages the DVD 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
way, moisture may condense on the optical pick-up
lens inside this unit, one of the most crucial internal
parts of the DVD player.
Moisture condensation occurs during the
following cases:
When you bring the DVD player directly from a cold
place to a warm place.
When you use the DVD 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 player in a hot
and humid place just after you moved the unit from
an air conditioned room.
When you use the DVD player in a humid place.
Do not use the DVD player when moisture
condensation may occur.
If you use the DVD player in such a situation,
it may damage discs and internal parts. Remove
the disc, connect the power cord of the DVD
player to the wall outlet, turn on the DVD player and
leave it ON for two or three hours. After two or
three hours, the DVD player will have warmed up
and evaporated any moisture. Keep the DVD player
connected to the wall outlet and moisture
condensation will seldom occur.
