Before Use (Cont’d)
Precautions
Handling the unit
When shipping the unit
The original shipping carton and packing materials come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the unit as it was originally packed at the factory.
When setting the unit
The picture and sound of a nearby TV or radio may be distorted during playback. In this case, position the unit away from the TV or radio, or turn off the unit after removing the disc.
To keep the surface clean
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray, near the unit. Do not leave rubber of plastic products in contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will leave marks on the surface.
Cleaning the unit
To clean the cabinet
Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use strong solvents, such as alcohol, benzine, or thinner, as these might damage the surface of the unit.
To obtain a clear picture
The DVD player is a high-tech, precision device. If the optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn down, the picture quality will be poor.
Regular inspection and maintenance are recommended after every 1,000 hours of use. (This depends on the operating environment.)
For details, please contact your nearest dealer.
Notes on Discs
Handling discs
Do not touch the playback side of the disc.
Hold the disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not get on the surface.
Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.
Storing discs
After playing, store the disc in its case.
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct sunlight, as there may be a considerable temperature increase inside the car.
Cleaning discs
Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor picture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the center out.
Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for older vinyl records.

Tuning in a video channel on your TV
Notes
The output frequency of this video recorder (VCR) is set at UHF channel 22. If channel 22 is already used by another TV station, or if the picture is distorted, you can change the transmitter channel of your VCR. Stages 5 ~ 8 will show you how to change the output frequency of your VCR.
Your TV receives signals from the video recorder (VCR) like another TV station. You have to select a channel number on your TV and tune it in so that you may watch video tapes. If you have used a SCART cable then your TV should already have a dedicated video channel built into it, usually called AV.
1 Make sure that you have correctly installed your VCR as described earlier in this book.
Press POWER to turn on your VCR. Turn on your TV.
2Insert a pre-recorded video tape into your VCR and press PALY G on the remote control.
Select a TV channel number on which you wish to watch video’s.
Don’t worry if you don’t have a video-tape to play at this stage! If you switch your VCR on and continue stages 3 ~ 4, instead of seeing video playback tune your TV until you see a bright blue screen.
3Tune this channel until the video picture is sharp and the sound is clear.
If you have used a SCART cable you will not have to tune your TV, simply select the AV channel. The AV channel is already pre-tuned for optimum video playback on your TV.
4Store this channel on your TV.
You will need to look at the TV instruction book if you do not know how to do this.
5Only carry out stages 5 ~ 8 if you cannot obtain clear video playback as described in stages 1 ~ 4.
Select a TV channel number on which you wish to watch video’s.
Make sure that your VCR is in standby pressing POWER on the remote control (only the clock will be displayed).
