PRECAUTIONS
AC Plug
AC Outlet
NOTES ON HANDLING:
• When shipping the DVD player, always use the
original shipping carton and packing materials. For
maximum protection, repack the unit as it was
riginally packed at the factory.
o
• Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near
the DVD player. Do not leave rubber or plastic
products in contact with the DVD player for a long
time. They will leave marks on the finish.
• The top and rear panels of the DVD player may
become warm after a long period of use. This is
normal and not a malfunction.
• When the DVD player is not in use, be sure to remove
the disc and turn off the power.
• If you do not use the DVD player for a long period, the
unit may not function properly in the future. Turn on
and use the DVD player occasionally.
NOTES ON LOCATING THE DVD PLAYER:
• When you place this DVD player near a TV, radio or
VCR, the playback picture may become poor and the
sound may be distorted. In this case, move the DVD
player away from the TV, radio or VCR.
NOTES ON CLEANING:
Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.
• For stubborn dirt, soak the cloth in a weak detergent
solution, wring well and wipe. Use a dry cloth to wipe
it dry. Do not use any type of solvent, such as thinner
and benzene, as they may damage the surface of the
DVD player.
• If you use a chemical-saturated cloth to clean the unit,
follow that product’s instructions.
arning:
W
other components of playback mechanism should be
performed by a qualified service technician.
Cleaning and adjustment of lenses and/or
TO OBTAIN A CLEAR PICTURE:
The DVD player is a high technology, precision device. If
the optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or
worn down, the picture quality becomes poor. To obtain a
clear picture, we recommend regular inspection and
maintenance (cleaning or parts replacement) every 1,000
hours of use depending on the operating environment.
For details, contact your nearest dealer.
NOTES ON MOISTURE CONDENSATION:
Moisture condensation damages the DVD player.
Please read the following carefully.
• Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you
pour a cold drink into a glass on a warm day. Drops of
water form on the outside of the glass. In the same
way, moisture may condense on the optical pick-up
lens inside this unit, one of the most crucial internal
parts of the DVD player.
Moisture condensation occurs during the following
cases:
• When you bring the DVD player directly from a cold
place to a warm place.
• When you use the DVD player in a room where you
just turned on the heater, or a place where the cold
wind from the air conditioner directly hits the unit.
• In summer, when you use the DVD player in a hot and
humid place just after you moved the unit from an air
conditioned room.
• When you use the DVD player in a humid place.
Do not use the DVD player when moisture
condensation may occur.
• If you use the DVD player in such a situation, it may
damage discs and internal parts. Remove the disc,
connect the power cord of the DVD player to the wall
outlet, turn on the DVD player and leave it “ON” for
two or three hours. After two or three hours, the DVD
player will have warmed up and evaporated any
moisture. Keep the DVD player connected to the wall
outlet and moisture condensation will seldom occur.
POWER SOURCE
Insert the AC plug (with the 2 blades) into a conveniently located AC outlet having 120V,
60Hz.
NOTE: The AC plug supplied with the unit is polarized to help minimize the possibility of
electric shock. If the AC plug does not fit into a nonpolarized AC outlet, do not file or cut

CONNECTING THE DVD TO A TV USING THE Y/PB/PR JACKS
NOTES FOR CONNECTING TO A TV:
• TV must have Y, PB and PR input jacks.
• Set the TV’s TV/VIDEO button or switch to the VIDEO setting.
• When connecting the DVD, refer to the owner’s manual of the TV, as well as this manual.
• When connecting the DVD to the TV, make sure the power is off and both units are unplugged before making any
connections.
• Connect the DVD player to your TV directly. If you connect the DVD player through a VCR, the playback picture will be
distorted because DVD video discs are copy protected.
• If using a TV with a blue screen option, turn the option off, on the TV for best results.
PROGRESSIVE (Y, PB, PR) VIDEO OUT:
Use these jacks to connect to a TV with progressive video input jacks, set the PROGRESSIVE SCAN switch to ON.
Progressive scan is a video scanning system that displays all lines in a frame in one pass, as opposed to the traditional
system, interlaced scan. This connection provides optimum quality. To ensure maximum picture quality, use three videograde cables for connections. Note that it is essential to match the color-coded connectors with a compatible TV.
525 LINE DIGITAL PROGRESSIVE-SCAN COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT
Compared to standard interlaced video, progressive scan effectively doubles the amount of video information fed to your TV
or monitor. The result is a stable, flicker-free image. (Check your TV/monitor for compatibility with this feature.)
For the very highest picture quality, try watching a movie on DVD-Video on a progressive-scan compatible TV.
NOTES:
• If you connect a TV that is not compatible with a progressive scan signal and the PROGRESSIVE SCAN switch is in
the ON position, “PSCAN” will appear on the screen. Set the PROGRESSIVE SCAN switch to the OFF position,
“PSCAN” will disappear from the screen.
• CONSUMERS SHOULD NOTE THAT NOT ALL HIGH DEFINITION TELEVISION SETS ARE FULLY COMPATIBLE
WITH THIS PRODUCT AND MAY CAUSE ARTIFACTS TO BE DISPLAYED IN THE PICTURE. IN CASE OF 525
PROGRESSIVE SCAN PICTURE PROBLEMS, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE USER SET THE PROGRESSIVE
SCAN SWITCH TO “OFF”.

Caring for Discs
• Treat the disc carefully. Handle the disc only by its edges. Never allow your fingers to come in contact with the shiny, unprinted
side of the disc.
• Do not attach adhesive tape, stickers, etc. to the disc label.
• Clean the disc periodically with a soft, lint-free, dry cloth. Never use detergents or abrasive cleaners to clean the disc. If
necessary, use a CD cleaning kit.
• If a disc skips or gets stuck on a section of the disc, it is probably dirty or damaged (scratched).
• When cleaning the disc, wipe in straight lines from the center of the disc to the outer edge of the disc. Never wipe in circular
motions.
• Discs should be stored in their cases after each use to avoid damage.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, high temperatures or dust, etc. Prolonged exposure or extreme
temperatures can warp the disc.
• Do not stick or write anything on either side of the disc. Sharp writing instruments, or the ink, may damage the surface.
Cleaning the Unit
• To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect your unit from the AC power source when cleaning.
• The finish on your unit may be cleaned with a dust cloth and cared for as other furniture. Use caution when cleaning and
wiping the plastic parts.
• Mild soap and a damp cloth may be used on the front panel.
