Precautions
Notes on Handling
When shipping the DVD player, the original shipping carton
and packing materials come in handy. 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 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 Placement
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, place the DVD player away from
the TV, radio, or VCR.
Notes on Cleaning
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 move the unit from an air
conditioned room.

Introduction
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
benzine, 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.
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.
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 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.

When connecting ONKYO products, it is necessary to attach the z cable to be able to use the remote control of the main component to control the entire system.
1.To use this DVD player with an amplifier (or receiver), cassette tape deck and tuner with the z symbol, insert the remote control
cable plugs into the REMOTE CONTROL jacks.
2.As the exact connection sequence of the z cable is unimportant, you can connect from the amplifier (or receiver) to either the tuner,
the cassette tape deck or to the compact disc player.
3.If using an z equipped ONKYO amplifier (or receiver), to operate correctly, the remote control must face towards the remote control
sensor of the amplifier (or receiver).
Notes:
• The upper and lower z remote control jacks have the same function.
• Remote control operation is not possible when only the remote control cable is connected — the audio connection cables must also be connected.
• An z remote control cable equipped with a 1/8" (3.5mm) diameter miniature two-conductor phone plug is included with the DV-S501
and with every tuner, compact disc player or cassette tape deck with the z symbol.
