Please note the following points when setting up the DVD player:
This DVD player set is designed to play video and audio signals from compact
discs (DVD and CD).
Any other use is expressly prohibited.
If the DVD player is subject to a sudden change in temperature, for example if
brought in from the cold to a warm room, connect it to the mains supply and let
it stand for at least two hours before you insert a DVD.
The DVD player is designed for use in dry rooms. If you do use it in the open,
please ensure that it is protected from moisture, such as rain or water splashes.
Place the DVD player on a hard, level surface. Do not place any objects such as
newspapers on the DVD player or any cloth or similar articles underneath it.
Do not place the DVD player close to heating units or in direct sunlight, as this
will impair cooling.
Do not insert foreign objects in the air vents or the disc compartment.
Never open the DVD player casing under any circumstances. The manufacturer
accepts no liability for damage resulting from improper handling.
Do not place any vessels such as vases on the DVD player, as they may spill
liquid, thus presenting a safety risk.
Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical devices. Even if the DVD player is
switched off, it can be damaged by a lightning strike to the mains. Always
remove the mains plug during an electrical storm.
If the DVD player is unable to scan DVDs or CDs perfectly, use a standard commercial cleaning CD to clean the laser optics. Other cleaning methods may
damage the laser optics.
Always keep the disc compartment closed to prevent dust from collecting on the
laser optics.
This DVD player is designed to the highest technological and environmental
standards. Only ecologically compatible, high quality materials have been
used. The batteries included are free of mercury and cadmium.
The range of materials used has been deliberately restricted and all the larger
plastic parts have been labelled. This DVD player is easily disassembled to
make servicing easier and optimise recycling.

DVD and video CD features
You can recognise DVDs, s-video CDs and video CDs by the logo on the label.
Depending on the contents of the DVD, s-video CD or video CD (films, video
clips etc.), they may carry one or more titles.
Each title may contain one or more chapters. Titles and chapters can be selected
easily and conveniently.
You can control and direct playback of a DVD, s-video CD or video CD using
the menu of the DVD player on the television screen.
Some of the DVD player’s functions, such as video strobe or slow motion, can
not be selected when playing back a video CD. This depends on the video CD.
Special DVD features
DVDs have a title menu which provides an overview of the titles available and
the passages they contain.
Some of the DVD player’s functions, such as slow motion, freeze-frame and
auto-play, can also be controlled by the DVD itself. It is therefore possible that
the freeze-frame function, for example, cannot be selected during certain scenes.
Many DVDs have audio tracks recorded in up to eight languages.
This enables you to select the language you prefer.
Many DVDs are recorded by the manufacturer with subtitles in several languages.
You can select subtitle superimposition from up to 32 different languages.
Since films are released in different parts of the world at different times, all DVD
players world-wide are given a regional code. Your DVD player has been given
region code 2.
DVDs can also be given a supplementary regional code. If you insert a DVD
with different code to that of the DVD player, a reference to the regional code
appears on the television screen. The DVD player will not be able to play back
the DVD.
