Safety Precautions
Power Sources
This unit operates on a supplied AC adaptor,
car adaptor, or a rechargeable battery pack.
• Make sure that the input voltage of the AC
adaptor is in line with the local voltage.
Otherwise, the AC adaptor and unit may be
damaged.
• Do not touch the AC adaptor with wet
hands to prevent electric shock.
• When connecting with car power (cigarette
lighter) adaptor, be sure the input voltage of
the adaptor is identical with car voltage.
• Unplug the AC adaptor from the outlet or
remove the battery pack when the unit is
not used for long periods of time.
• Hold the plug to disconnect the AC adaptor.
Do not pull the power cord.
On Placement
Avoid placing the unit in the following places.
• Under direct sunlight or near a source of
heat such as a heater.
• Never leave the unit in a closed automobile,
on a dashboard or an unstable shelf. Excess
heat may deform the cabin or cause malfunction.
• Where it is very dusty or sandy.
• Wet or humid places, such as bathroom.
• Near sources of strong magnetism, such as
a television, speaker, or magnet.
• Where there is a lot of movement or vibration, such as on a car dashboard or an
unstable shelf.
• Where it is extremely hot or cold.
• Where the unit is exposed to rain or water.
For Safety
• Do not disassemble the unit for laser rays
are dangerous to eyes.
Any service should be done by qualified
service personnel.
• Unplug the AC adaptor to cut the power if
liquid or objects get inside the unit.
• Take care not to drop the unit or subject it to
strong shocks, which may cause malfunction.
Note: When the player is in use for a long
period of time, the surface will be heated. This is normal.
Maintenance
• Do not touch the lens !
• If the player is brought directly from a cold
to a warm location, or is placed in a very
damp room, moisture may condense on the
lens inside the player. If this occurs, the
player will not operate normally. Leave the
power on for about one hour with no disc in
the disc tray until normal playback is
possible.
• Avoid dust. Keep the disc tray closed after
use. If there is dust on the lens, use a
cleaning disc to clean.
Handling discs
• Do not attach paper or tape to the disc.
• Keep the disc away from direct sunlight or
heat sources.
• Store the disc in a disc case after playback.
• To clean, wipe the disc outwards from the
center with a soft, lint-free clean cloth.
