Precautions
Ensure that the AC power supply in your house complies with the identification sticker located on the back of your player. Install
your player horizontally, on a suitable base (furniture), with enough space around it for ventilation (7.5~10cm). Make sure the
ventilation slots are not covered. Do not stack anything on top of the player. Do not place the player on amplifiers or other
equipment which may become hot. Before moving the player, ensure the disc tray is empty. This player is designed for
continuous use. Switching off the DVD player to the stand-by mode does not disconnect the electrical supply. In order to
disconnect the player completely from the power supply, remove the main plug from the wall outlet, especially when left unused
for a long period of time.
Protect the player from moisture(i.e. vases) , and excess
heat(e.g.fireplace) or equipment creating strong magnetic or
electric fields (i.e.speakers...). Disconnect the power cable from
the AC supply if the player malfunctions. Your player is not
intended for industrial use.
Use of this product is for personal use only.
Condensation may occur if your player or disc have been
stored in cold temperatures.
If transporting the player during the winter, wait approximately
2 hours until the unit has reached room temperature before using.
During thunderstorms, disconnect AC main plug from
the wall outlet.
Voltage peaks due to lightning could damage the unit.
Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or other heat
sources.
This could lead to overheating and malfunction of the
unit.
The battery used with this product contain chemicals
that are harmful to the environment.
Do not dispose of batteries in the general household
trash.

Wiring the Main Power Supply Plug(UK Only)
IMPORTANT NOTICE
The main lead on this equipment is supplied with a moulded plug incorporating a fuse. The value of the fuse is indicated on the pin face of the plug
and if it requires replacing, a fuse approved to BS1362 of the same rating must be used.
Never use the plug with the fuse cover removed. If the cover is detachable and a replacement is required, it must be of the same colour as the fuse
fitted in the plug. Replacement covers are available from your dealer.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for the power points in your house or the cable is not long enough to reach a power point, you should obtain a suitable
safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer for assistance.
However, if there is no alternative to cutting off the plug, remove the fuse and then safely dispose of the plug. Do not connect the plug to a main
socket as there is a risk of shock hazard from the bared flexible cord.
Never attempt to insert bare wires directly into a main socket. A plug and fuse must be used at all times.
IMPORTANT
The wires in the main lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:–
BLUE = NEUTRAL BROWN = LIVE
As these colours may not correspond to the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:–
The wire coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter N or coloured BLUE or BLACK. The wire coloured
BROWN must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter L or coloured BROWN or RED.

If there isn't enough room, place these speakers so they
face each other.
•
Place them about 60 to 90cm (2 to 3feet) above your ear,
facing slightly downward.

speakers are used to handle mainly sound effects and
sound will not come from them all the time.

•
Place these speakers in front of your listening
position, facing inwards (about 45°) toward you.
•
Place the speakers so that their tweeters will be at
the same height as your ear.
•
Align the front face of the front speakers with the
front face of the center speaker or place them
slightly in front of the center speakers.

When you attach the speakers to a wall, make sure to
fasten them tightly so they do not fall off.
•
If more bass is desired, you can
connect an additional active
subwoofer (not supplied) to the
Subwoofer 1or 2 port. Since the
signal on the Subwoofer 1and 2 ports
is not stereo, you will hear the same
mono bass sound regardless of the
port you connect to.
•
