Care and safety information

¶ Power supply voltage

– Check that the operating voltage indicated on the typeplate (or beside the voltage selector) is identical to the voltage of your local power supply. If not, please consult your dealer. – During Standby mode, the DVD player is still consuming some power. To disconnect the system from the power supply completely, remove the AC power plug from the wall socket.

¶ Avoid high temperatures, moisture,

water and dust

– Do not expose the system, batteries or discs to humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat (caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight.) Always keep the disc tray closed to avoid dust on the lens.

¶ Avoid condensation problem

– The lens may cloud over when the player is suddenly moved from cold to warm surroundings, making it impossible to play a disc. Leave the player in the warm environment until the moisture evaporates.

¶ Do not block the vents

– Do not operate the DVD Player in an enclosed cabinet, allow about 10 cm (4 inches) of free space all around the player for adequate ventilation.

¶ Care of the cabinet

– Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use a solution containing alcohol, spirits, ammonia or abrasives.

¶ Finding a suitable location

– Place the player on a flat, hard, and stable surface.

¶ Care of disc

– To clean a CD, wipe it in a straight line from the center towards the edge using a soft, lint-free cloth. A cleaning agent may damage the disc! – Write only on the printed side of a CDR(W) and only with a soft felt-tipped pen. – Handle the disc by its edge, do not touch the surface.

Connections

Basic Connections

● Please refer to the instruction books of

your TV, VCR, Stereo or other devices as necessary to make the best connections.

The following guidelines are options for the best picture and sound quality available on your DVD player.

Picture

* Use CVBS Video Output for good

picture quality.

** Use S-Video Output for better

picture quality.

*** Use Component Video Output for

best picture quality.

Use Component Video Out with Progressive Scan enabled for excellent flicker-free picture quality (to enable this you need a Progressive Scan TV).

Your TV may have only an RF-style input, usually labeled Antenna In, 75 ohm or RF In and you will need an RF modulator to operate. See your retailer on RF modulator availability and operations.

Sound

1 Digital audio connections provide the

clearest sound with a digital amplifier or receiver. Connect the DVD player’s COAXIAL or OPTICAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT to your amplifier or receiver.

2 If the above connection is not possible,

use the audio cables (white/red) to connect AUDIO IN (L/R) jacks to your amplifier, receiver, stereo or TV.

Warning! – Never make or change connections with the power switched on. – Connect the DVD Player directly to the TV. – Do not connect the DVD player AUDIO OUT to the PHONO IN of your amplifier or receiver.
