3 Heed all warnings.
4 Follow all instructions.
5 Do not use your DVD player near water.

your DVD player on a cushion, sofa, or other similar surface.

8 Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or

other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

outlets, and the point where they exit from your DVD player.

11 Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12 Do not place your DVD player on an unstable cart, stand, tripod,

13 Never place heavy or sharp objects on the LCD panel or frame.
14 Unplug your DVD player during lightning storms or when unused

for long periods of time.

15 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when

fallen into your player, your player has been exposed to rain or moisture, does
not operate normally, or has been dropped.

16 Remote control batteries should not be exposed to excessive heat such as

WARNINGS

Electric shock hazard

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not remove the cover or back. Do not
expose your DVD player to rain or moisture. There are no user-serviceable parts
inside. Refer servicing to qualified service technicians.

Handling the LCD panel

• Never place heavy or sharp objects on the LCD panel or frame.

• Your DVD player’s screen is made of glass. Do not drop your player or hit, jolt,
or press hard against the LCD panel. If the screen breaks, be careful of broken
glass.

• If the LCD panel is broken, make absolutely sure that you do not touch the
liquid in the panel. This may cause skin inflammation.

• If the liquid gets in your mouth, immediately gargle, rinse, and consult with
your doctor. Also, if the liquid gets in your eyes or touches your skin, consult
with your doctor after rinsing for at least 15 minutes or longer in clean water.

Replacement parts

When replacement parts are required, make sure that the service technician uses
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer that have the same
characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire,
electric shock, personal injury, or other hazards.

Safety check

After completing any service or repair to your DVD player, ask the service
technician to perform routine safety checks to determine that your player is in
correct operating condition.

Servicing

These servicing instructions are for use by qualified service personnel only. To
reduce the risk of electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than that
contained in the operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so.

End of life directives

Your DVD player may contain materials that are regulated for environmental
reasons. Your player also contains materials that can be recycled and reused. To
help protect the environment, contact your local authorities for information about
disposal or recycling and about finding a recycler in your area before you dispose
of your player.

WARNING: Your DVD player uses a low-level laser system. Use of controls,

adjustments, or performance of procedures other than those specified in this User

CAUTION: Do not install your player in a confined space such as a book case or

similar unit.

WARNING: Chemical Burn Hazard. Do not ingest the battery.

• The remote control supplied with your DVD player contains a coin/button cell
battery. If the battery is swallowed, it can cause severe internal burns in just
two hours and can lead to death.

• If you think batteries might have been swallowed or placed inside any part of
the body, seek immediate medical attention.

• Your DVD player can play DVDs and Audio CDs (including CD-R and CD-RW).

• Your player is designed and manufactured to respond to the Region

it cannot play that disc. The region number of your player is 1.

• If the DVD is a region 1 disc, it may have the logo on the packaging.

• Do not use irregularly shaped discs, such as heart-shaped or star-shaped discs,
because they may cause your player to malfunction.

• Do not stick paper, tape, or glue on a disc.

• Do not expose a disc to direct sunlight or heat sources.

• Do not touch the surface of a disc. Handle a disc by its edge.

• Clean a disc by wiping the disc from the center out with a cleaning cloth.

• Remove a disc from your player and store it in its case after playing.

Some playback operations may be intentionally limited by software producers.
Because your player plays discs according to the disc contents the software
producers designed, some playback features may not be available. Refer to the
instructions supplied with the discs.

Remote control

Your players come with two remote controls, labeled A and B. Your players are also
labeled A and B on the fronts. Make sure that you use the correct remote control
for the player you are using.

Notes:

• When you connect your players, you plug the AV connecting cable into the

AV OUT jack on one player and the AV IN jack on the other player. See

Connecting your DVD players on page 15. The player with the AV OUT

connection is the master player, and the player with the AV IN connection is
the secondary player.

player, but changing settings on your master player does not change
settings on your secondary player.

work for your secondary player are VOL–, VOL+, MUTE, SOURCE, MODE,
