• In a position subject to high humidity or considerable dust
• On an uneven or unstable surface
• Near a heat source
• Near a computer, fluorescent light or other electric appliance
• In a small room with insufficient ventilation
• In a position exposed to direct sunlight
• In a position exposed to excessive cold
• In a position exposed to strong vibration
• Near a TV, amplifier, or tuner
• Near a magnetic source
CAUTION
• The operating temperature of this product is 5°C to
35°C. Use in temperatures outside this range may
cause a malfunction or damage the product.
Condensation
Under the following conditions, you may not be
able to operate this product properly due to condensation formed on the lens of the main unit:
• When you have just started an air conditioner to
warm your room
• When you have placed the main unit at an area
with high humidity
• When you have moved the main unit from a cold
place to a warm place
When condensation forms, leave the main unit
turned on, wait for approximately 1 or 2 hours, and
then operate the main unit.
Cleaning the Main Unit
When the operation panel becomes dirty, dust it
with a soft dry cloth. When the operation panel is
very dirty, wipe it with a cloth dampened with a
small amount of a neutral detergent, and then wipe
it with a soft dry cloth.
CAUTION
• Do not wipe the operation panel with thinners, benzenes or other chemical agents. Do not spray
insecticides onto the operation panel. These may
cause discoloration and damage to the surface.

adjust the volume to a suitable level to
avoid disturbing your neighbors.
Even low-volume sound carries a long way,
especially at night. Show consideration to
your neighbors by closing windows or using
headphones.

Notes on Handling
■ Important cautions
Installation of the system
• Select a place which is level, dry and neither too
hot nor too cold; between 5°C and 35°C.
• Leave sufficient distance between the system
and the TV.
• Do not use the system in a place subject to
vibration.
Power cord
• Do not handle the power cord with wet hands!
• A small amount of power is always consumed
while the power cord is connected to the wall
outlet.
• When unplugging the power cord from the wall
outlet, always pull on the plug, not the power
cord.
To prevent malfunctions of the system
• There are no user-serviceable parts inside. If
anything goes wrong, unplug the power cord and
consult your dealer.
• Do not insert any metallic object into the system.
• Do not use any non-standard shape disc (like a
heart, flower or credit card, etc.) available on the
market, because it may damage the system.
• Do not use a disc with tape, stickers, or paste on
it, because it may damage the system.
Label sticker
Sticker
Avoid high temperatures

not place it near a heating device.
When you are away
When away on travel or for other reasons for an
extended period of time, disconnect the power

other organic solvents including disinfectants.
These may cause deformation or discoloring.
If water gets inside the system
Turn the system off and disconnect the power cord
plug from the wall outlet, then call the store where
you made your purchase. Using the system in this
condition may cause fire or electrical shock.
■ When condensation or water drops adhere
to the lens
In any of the following cases, condensation or
water drops may adhere to the lens to prevent the
system from working properly:
• Immediately after roomheating starts
• When the system is installed in a steamy or
damp space
