Care and Safety Information

DANGER!
High voltage! Do not open the
device. You run the risk of getting
an electric shock.

The machine does not contain any
user-serviceable parts. Please leave
all maintenance work to quali ed
personnel.

Setup

Finding a suitable location

– Place the set on a  at, hard and stable

surface. Do not place the set on a
carpet.

– Do not put any equipment or heavy

objects on top of the set.

– Do not position the set on top of

other equipment that might heat it up
(such as receiver or ampli er).

–

Do not put anything under the set
(such as CDs, magazines).

– Install this unit near the AC outlet and

where the AC power plug can be
reached easily.

Space for ventilation

– Place the apparatus in a location with

adequate ventilation to prevent
internal heat build up. Allow at least
10 cm (4.0”) clearance from the rear
and the top of the set and 5cm (2.0”)
from the left and right to prevent
overheating.

10cm (4.0")

10cm (4.0")

5cm (2.0")

5cm (2.0")

Avoid high temperatures, moisture,

water and dust

– Apparatus shall not be exposed to

dripping or splashing.

– Do not place any sources of danger

on the apparatus (such as liquid  lled
objects, lighted candles).

Cleaning discs

Some problems occur because the disc
inside the player is dirty (frozen picture,
sound disruptions, picture distortions).
To avoid these problems, discs should be
cleaned on a regular basis.

To clean a disc, use a micro  bre cleaning
cloth and wipe the disc from the center
to the edge in a straight line.

CAUTION!

Do not use solvents such as benzene,
thinner, commercially available cleaners,
or anti-static sprays intended for analog
discs. Since the optical unit (laser) of the
DVD player operates at a higher power
than regular DVD or CD players,
cleaning CDs intended for DVD or CD
players may damage the optical unit
(laser). Therefore, refrain from using a
cleaning CD.
