● Avoid high temperatures, moisture,

water and dust

– Do not expose the player, batteries or
discs to humidity, rain, sand or excessive
heat (caused by heating equipment or
direct sunlight.)

● 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.

● Finding a suitable location

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

● Disc handling

–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 felt­tipped pen.
– Handle the disc by its edge, do not
touch the surface.
