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 originally packed at the factory.

• 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:

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.

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 ef 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, you will not be able to see any picture at all. To regain the picture, you must shut the unit off and set the PROGRESSIVE SCAN switch to the OFF position. Then, turn the unit on and the picture will appear.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

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.
