Safety information
CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

is intended to alert you to the presence of uninsulated
dangerous voltage within your player's enclosure that may
be of sufficient magnitude to constitute risk of electric shock
to persons.

The exclamation point within a triangle is intended to alert
you to the presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature
accompanying your player.
Warning
Replace the remote control battery only with the same or
equivalent type. Replacing the battery incorrectly can be
hazardous. In order to protect the environment, dispose of
the battery as hazardous waste.
Warning
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose
this player to rain or moisture. Dangerous high voltage is
present inside the enclosure. Do not open the case.
Warning
To prevent electric shock, match the wide blade on the plug
to the wide slot and fully insert the plug.
Warning
Your player employs a laser system. To ensure the proper
use of your player, read this manual carefully and keep it for
future reference. If your player requires servicing, contact
the seller or our service center.
To prevent direct exposure to the laser radiation, do not
open the case. Invisible laser radiation is present when the
case is opened or the interlocks are defeated. Do not stare
into the laser beams.
Use of any controls, adjustments, or procedures other than
those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation
exposure.

• Cleaning—Unplug this player from the power outlet before
cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a
damp cloth for cleaning.
• Handling
—Take care not to drop your player or subject it to
strong shocks, which may cause damage or malfunction.
• Attachments
—Use of attachments not recommended by your
player manufacturer may cause hazards.
• Using headphones:
• To avoid hearing damage caused by a sudden increase in
volume, keep the volume at the lowest level before
playback, then adjust it to a comfortable level.
• Keep the volume at a moderate level to protect your ears.
• To avoid traffic accidents, never wear headphones when
driving a car or riding a bicycle.
• Maintenance—If you move your player from a cold place to a
warm one or use your player in a humid area, your player may
experience condensation. If this occurs, remove the disc and
leave your player on for about one hour to let the condensation
evaporate.
• Placement—Avoid placing your player in the following places:
• Under direct sunlight or near a source of heat, such as a
heater or header duct.
• In a closed automobile, on a dashboard or a parcel shelf.
Excess heat may deform the cabinet or cause malfunction.
• Where it is very dusty or sandy.
• In wet or humid places, such as a bathroom.
• Near sources of strong magnetism, such as a television or a
magnet.
• Where there is a lot of movement or vibration, such as on a
car dashboard or on an unstable shelf.
• Where it is extremely hot or cold.
• Where your player is exposed to rain or water.
• Power sources
—Your player operates on an AC adapter or
vehicle adapter.
• The main plug is the disconnecting device. The plug must
remain readily operable.
• Make sure that the input voltage of the AC adapter is
compatible with the local voltage. Otherwise, the AC
adapter and your player may be damaged.
Warning
To avoid electric shock, do not touch the AC adapter with
wet hands.
• When connecting with a vehicle (cigarette lighter) adapter,
be sure the input voltage of the adapter is identical with
vehicle voltage.

• Unplug the AC adapter from the outlet when your player will
not be used for an extended period of time.
• Hold the plug while unplugging the AC adapter. Do not pull
on the power cord.
• Grounding or polarization
—This player may be equipped
with a polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one
blade wider than the other). This plug will only fit into the power
outlet one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to
insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the
plug still fails to fit, contact your electrician to replace your
obsolete outlet. Do not defeat this safety feature of the
polarized plug.
• Power cord protection
—Power supply cords should be routed
so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items
placed on or against them. Pay particular attention to cords at
plugs, receptacles, and the point where they exit from your
player.
• Lightning
—For added protection during a lightning storm, or
when your player is left unattended and unused for long
periods of time, unplug it from the power outlet. This will
prevent damage to your player due to lightning and power-line
surges.
• Overloading
—Do not overload power outlets, extension cords,
or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk
of fire or electric shock.
• Object and liquid entry
—Never push objects of any kind into
this player. That could cause a fire or electric shock. Never spill
liquid of any kind on your player.
• Servicing
—Do not try to service this player yourself. Your
player uses a laser that can damage your eyes. Service must
be done by qualified service personnel only.
• Damages requiring service
—Unplug this player from the
power outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel
under the following conditions:
• When the power supply cord or plug is damaged.
• If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into your
player.
• If your player has been exposed to rain or water.
• If your player does not operate normally by following the
operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are
covered by the operating instructions. The improper
adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will
often require extensive work by a qualified technician to
restore your player to its normal operation.
• If your player has been dropped or damaged in any way.
• When your player exhibits a distinct change in performance
which may indicate a need for service.
