Maintenance
Servicing
• Please refer to relevant topics on “TROUBLESHOOTING”
on pages 97-100 before returning the product.
• If this unit becomes inoperative, do not try to correct
the problem by yourself. There are no user-serviceable
parts inside. Turn the unit to the standby mode, unplug
the power plug and please call our help line mentioned

detergent solution. Do not use a solution containing
alcohol, spirits, ammonia or abrasive.
Note
• Remember to read the instructions along with the
video head cleaner before use.
• Clean video heads only when problems occur.
IR signal check
If the remote control does not work properly, you can test
if the remote control sends out the infrared signal with AM
radio or a digital camera (including built-in camera of cellular
phone). It will help to define the cause of malfunction.
• With an AM radio:
Tune an AM radio to a station with no
broadcasting. Press a button on remote
control toward the radio. Sound will be
fluttering when you press any key and the
radio receives the signal. This means the
remote control is working.
• With a digital camera (including built-in
camera of cellular phone):
Direct a digital camera to remote control,
press and hold a button on remote control. If
infrared light appears through digital camera,
the remote control is working.

Copyright protection system
To play back the digital video images of a DVD via an HDMI
connection, it is necessary that both the player and the
display device (or an AV amplifier) support a copyright
protection system called HDCP (high-bandwidth digital
content protection system). HDCP is copy protection
technology that comprises data encryption and
authentication of the connected AV device. This unit
supports HDCP. Please read the operating instructions of
your display device (or AV amplifier) for more information.
*HDMI: High Definition Multimedia Interface
Note
• Some devices with an HDMI input may not operate properly with this unit.
• When using an HDCP-incompatible display device, the image will not be viewed properly.
• Among the devices that support HDMI, some devices can control other devices via the HDMI connector; this unit cannot be
controlled by another device via the HDMI connector.
• The audio signals from the HDMI connector (including the sampling frequency, the number of channels and bit length) may be
limited by the device that is connected.
• Among the monitors that support HDMI, some do not support audio output (for example, projectors). In connections with device
such as this unit, audio signals are not output from the HDMI output connector.
• When this unit’s HDMI connector is connected to a DVI-D compatible monitor (HDCP compatible) with an HDMI-DVI converter cable,
the signals are output in digital RGB.
• When the power failure occurs, or when you unplug the unit, some problems in the HDMI setting might occur. Please check and set
the HDMI setting again.
• HDMI video resolution cannot be changed when the unit is in VCR mode.
