Power cord protection

To avoid any malfunctions of the unit, and to protect against electric shock, fire or personal injury, please observe the followingÿ

• This system has been designed to work with 120-

volt AC current. Connection to a line voltage other than that may create a safety and fire hazard and may damage the system. If you are unsure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your local dealer or power company.

• Hold the plug firmly when connecting or

disconnecting the power cord to the wall outlet.

• Do not run power cords under rugs or carpets or

place heavy objects on them.

• Damaged or deformed power cords are hazardous

and should be replaced immediately by a qualified service technician.

Location and handing

• Air vents are provided in the cabinet to prevent excessive temperatures inside the unit. Do not place this unit in closed spaces, cover it, or otherwise block the vents.

• Do not place this unit in direct sunlight, or near heat sources.

• Keep this unit away from strong magnetic objects.

• Do not insert or drop anything into this unit through

the air vents as this could cause serious damage, possibly resulting in fire.

• Do not place any objects containing water or other liquids on this unit. In the event that liquid should enter the cabinet, unplug this unit immediately and contact the dealer or authorized service center immediately.

• Do not remove the cabinet. Touching parts inside the cabinet could result in electric shock and / or damage to the unit.

• The safety and operation of this appliance in a vehicle can not be guaranteed.

Foreign objects

• Do not put fingers or other foreign objects on the disc tray.

• Do not insert any foreign objects through any of the unit’ s openings.

Stacking

• Place the unit in a horizontal position, and do not place anything heavy on it.

Recommended measures for optimum picture excellence

This unit is a precision device that is constructed using extremely accurate technology. Soiling or friction affecting the pickup lens or disc drive can impair the image quality. At the worst, neither video nor audio will be played back. To obtain optimum picture quality, the player should be checked (cleaning and replacement of some parts) every 1,000 hours. Note that this period varies depending on the environment (temperature, humidity, dust, ect.) in which the player is used.

Do not attempt to clean the pickup lens yourself.

Condensation

Moisture may form on the pickup lens in the following conditions.

• Immediately after a heater has been turned on.

• In a steamy or very humid room.

• When the unit is suddenly moved from a cold envi-

ronment to a warm one.

If you suspect this to be the case, turn the power off and wait at least one hour for the moisture to evaporate.

To avoid interference while watching television

When not in use, we recommend that you leave the power for your unit turned off. If you experience interference during normal television viewing, simply turn the DVD player deck off. This is not a malfunction of the unit or the television.

Cautions on adjusting volume

• Do not turn up the volume while listening to a portion with very low level inputs or no audio signals. If you do, the speakes may be damaged when a peak level portion is played.

Nonuse periods

• When the unit is not being used, turn the power off.

• When left unused for a long period of time, the unit

should be unplugged from the household AC outlet.

Service

• Do not attempt to service the unit yourself.

• Please refer any service to an authorized service

center.

sion, select this option. The unit automatically sets and outputs a recorded signal in correct aspect ratio. Be sure to set the screen mode on your wide-screen TV to FULL.

Selecting the dynamic rangeSelecting the dynamic range

In many listening situations, it is objectionable to allow the sound to become very loud, and thus the loudest sounds must be compressed downwards in level. Likewise, the very quiet sounds would be inaudible and must be brought upwards in level to be heard. Dolby Digital satisfies these needs with dynamic range compression.

To select one of the following settings, use the SETUP menu, select AUDIO SETUP to access the COMPRESSION menu: OFF, 1/8, 2/8, 3/8, 4/8, 5/8, 6/8, 7/8, FULL.
