I M P O R T A N T I N F O R M A T I O N

13)When smoke, abnormal smell or sound appears from the product, please cut off power immediately and contact your dealer or service center.

16)The main plug is used as the device for cutting off power, so make sure the main plug easy to unplug.

17)When replacing accessories, please ensure the maintenance person use the accessories and tools appointed by manufacturer.

Cautions

•Ensure that all audio/video cables are properly connected before plugging in the power plug. The player is not disconnected from the AC power source as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the player itself has been turned off.

•The acceptable power input range is AC ~ 100V-240V, 50/60Hz

•Before turning on the power of the player, please adjust the volume level of TVs, audio system speakers and amplifiers to the minimum. Adjust the volume as necessary only after normal playback has started to avoid damage to your hearing and equipments.

•Do not put the player near any high power loudspeakers so as to avoid any interference due to vibration or magnetic fields.

•Before moving the player, take out any discs. Otherwise the disc may be damaged.

•When moving the player from a cold place to a warm one, or vice versa, moisture may condense on the laser pickup unit inside the player. Should this occur, the player may not operate properly. In such a case please turn the power on for 1-2 hours (without disc) until the moisture evaporates.

•Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls only with a soft cloth slightly moistened with water or a mild detergent solution. Never use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent such as alcohol or benzene for cleaning.

Method 2 – DVI Connection to TV

•If your TV has a DVI input, you can purchase an HDMI-DVI adapter cable to connect the DVD player to the TV. This connection method delivers digital video to the TV without any signal degradation. The HDMI video output of the OPPO DVD player presents the highest possible resolutions and video quality.

•Please use the Red/White audio cables to connect the FRONT/MIXED audio output of the DVD player to the TV. Make sure the audio cables are connected to the same input terminal group on the TV as the DVI input. Usually the input terminals are marked as “DVI Audio” or “PC Audio”. On some TVs you may need to use an RCA-3.5mm Mini-Jack adapter cable to connect the audio.

•You may connect the composite video or S-Video cable to the TV for trouble-shooting purpose, just in case there is a problem with DVI. However it is not recommended to use the composite video or S-Video as the primary method of video delivery to the TV, because using it will lose the advantage of video up-conversion and you will only get standard definition video.

Method 3 – Component Video Connection to TV

•If your TV has no digital video input but has component video inputs, please use a set of component video cable to connect the component video output of the DVD player to the TV. The connectors are color coded, so please make sure the cable connections match on both ends. The component video connection will produce a very clear picture with high color accuracy.

•Please use the Red/White audio cables to connect the FRONT/MIXED audio output of the DVD player to the TV. Make sure the audio cables are connected to the same input terminal group on the TV as the component video input.

•You may connect the composite video or S-Video cable to the TV for trouble-shooting purpose, just in case there is a problem with component video. However it is not recommended to use the composite video or S-Video as the primary method of video delivery to the TV, because using it will lose the advantage of video up-conversion and you will only get standard definition video.

•Video up-conversion over the component output is only available for unencrypted discs such as home video and consumer-created contents. Most commercially pressed DVD discs are CSSencrypted and will be limited to 480i/480p resolution. This restriction applies to the component output only. The HDMI output is protected with HDCP and has no such restriction.
