This appliance may be fitted with a non-rewireable plug. If it is necessary to change the fuse in a non-rewireable plug the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost or damaged, the plug must not be used until a replacement available from the appliance manufacturer is obtained. It is important that the colour of the replacement fuse cover corresponds with the rating marking on the base of the plug. If the plug has to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or becomes damaged, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted following the wiring instructions below. The plug removed must be disposed of safely as insertion into a 13A socket is likely to cause an electrical hazard.

Notes

¡If you use the Euro audio/video cable, it is not necessary to connect the analog audio cable. ¡Connect the DVD player directly to a TV. If the A/V cables are connected to a VCR, pictures may be

HOW TO CONNECT TO ATV WITHOUT AUDIO/VIDEO INPUT JACKS

If your TV does not have RCA type audio and video input jacks it is still possible to connect this DVD player to your TV’s 75-ohm coaxial antenna terminal using a commercially available Stereo Audio/Video RF Modulator, not included. Connect the audio and video outputs of the DVD player to the audio and video inputs on the RF Modulator, and then connect the coaxial output of the RF Modulator (usually marked “TO TV”) to the 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal on your TV. Follow the instruction supplied with the RF Modulator for more details.

If your TV’s 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal is already occupied by an antenna or cable box connection, remove that cable from your TV’s antenna terminal and reconnect it to the coaxial antenna input terminal of the RF Modulator (usually marked “ANT IN”), then connect the RF modulator to your TV’s antenna terminal as described above.

Note

¡The picture quality from DVD discs will not be as good if the DVD player is connected to the TV’s

antenna terminal through an RF Modulator.

BATTERY

Take care to fit your batteries correctly, observing the plus and minus marks on the battery and appliance. Incorrect fitting can cause leakage or in extreme cases, fire or even an explosion.

ALWAYS

Replace the whole set of batteries at one time, taking care not to mix old and new batteries or batteries of different types, since this can result in leakage or in extreme cases, fire or even an explosion.

ALWAYS

Used correctly, domestic batteries are a safe and dependable source of portable power. Problems can occur if they are misused or abused — resulting in leakage or, in extreme cases, fire or explosion. Here are some simple guidelines to safe battery use designed to eliminate any such problems.

PLEASE PHOTOCOPY AND DISPLAY

ALWAYS ALWAYS NEVER

Store unused batteries in their packaging and away from metal objects which may cause a shortcircuit resulting in leakage or, in extreme cases, fire or even an explosion.

Remove dead batteries from equipment and all batteries from equipment you know you are not going to use for a long time. Otherwise the batteries may leak and cause damage.

Never dispose of batteries in fire as this can cause them to explode. Please put dead batteries in with the normal household waste.

NEVER ALWAYS NEVER

Never attempt to recharge ordinary batteries, either in a charger or by applying heat to them. They may leak cause fire or even explode. There are special rechargeable batteries which are clearly marked as such.

Supervise children if they are replacing batteries themselves in order to ensure these guidelines are followed.

Remember that small button cell batteries such as used in some hearing aids, toys, games and other appliances, are easily swallowed by young children and this can be dangerous.

ALWAYS

ALWAYS ALWAYS

Keep loose button cells away from young children.

Make sure battery compartments are secure.

Seek medical advice if you believe a cell has been swallowed.

SOME DO’S AND DON’TS ON THE SAFE USE OF EQUIPMENT

This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet international safety standards but like any elec-

trical equipment, care must be taken if you are to obtain the best results and safety is to be assured.

★★★★★★★★★★★

DO read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the equipment. DO ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains plug, extension leads and interconnections

between pieces of equipment) are properly made and in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Switch off and withdraw the mains plug when making or changing connections. DO consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of your equipment. DO be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment.

★★★★★★★★★★★

DON’T continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about it working normally, or if it is damaged in any way switch off, withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.

DON’T remove any fixed cover as this may expose dangerous voltages. DON’T leave equipment switched on when it is unattended unless it is specifically stated that it is designed for

unattended operation or has a standby mode. Switch off using the switch on the equipment and make sure that your family know how to do this. Special arrangements may need to be made for infirm or handicapped people.

DON’T use equipment such as personal stereos or radios so that you are distracted from the requirements of traffic safety. It is illegal to watch television whilst driving.

DON’T listen to headphones at high volume, as such use can permanently damage your hearing. DON’T obstruct the ventilation of the equipment, for example with curtains or soft furnishings. Overheating will cause demage and shorten the life of the equipment. DON’T use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs with wood screws — to ensure complete safety always fix the

manufacturer’s approved stand or legs with the fixings provided according to the instructions. DON’T allow electrical equipment to be exposed to rain or moisture. ABOVE ALL
