NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE

PRECAUTIONS

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 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.
Warning: Cleaning and adjustment of lenses
and/or other components of playback mechanism
should be performed by a qualified service
technician.

NOTE 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 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.

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.

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 the wide blade. It is the user’s
responsibility to have an electrician replace the obsolete outlet.

EFFECTIVE DISTANCE OF THE REMOTE CONTROL TRANSMITTER

NOTES:

• When there is an obstacle
between the DVD and the
transmitter, the transmitter
may not operate.

• When direct sunlight,
an incandescent lamp,
fluorescent lamp or any
other strong light shines on
the REMOTE SENSOR of
the DVD, the remote
operation may be unstable.
