02 Safety Information

Disc Storage

Be careful not to damage the disc because the data on these discs is highly vulnerable to the environment.

Do not keep under direct sunlight. Keep in a cool ventilated area. Store vertically. Keep in a clean protection jacket. If you move your player suddenly from a cold

place to a warm place, condensation may generate on the operating parts and lens and cause abnormal disc playback. If this occurs, wait for two hours before connecting the plug to the power outlet. Then insert the disc and try to play back again.

Handling Cautions

Do not write on the printed side with a ball-point pen or pencil.

Do not use record cleaning sprays or antistatic. Also, do not use volatile chemicals, such as benzene or thinner.

Do not apply labels or stickers to discs. (Do not use discs fixed with exposed tape adhesive or leftover peeled-off stickers.)

Do not use scratch-proof protectors or covers. Do not use discs printed with label printers

available on the market. Do not load warped or cracked discs. Before connecting other components to this

player, be sure to turn them all off. Do not move the player while a disc is being

played as the disc may be scratched or broken, or the player’s internal parts may be damaged.

Do not put a flower vase filled with water or any small metal objects on the player.

Be careful not to put your hand into the disc tray.

Do not place anything other than the disc in the disc tray.

Exterior interferences such as lightning and static electricity can affect the normal operation of this player. If this occurs, turn the player off and on again with the POWER button, or disconnect and then reconnect the AC power cord to the AC power outlet. The player will operate normally.

•

Be sure to remove the disc and turn off the player after use.

Disconnect the AC power cord from the AC outlet when you don’t intend to use the player for long periods of time.

To clean a disc, wipe it in a straight line from the inside to the outside of the disc.

Do not expose the player to any liquid.

When the AC plug is connected to a wall outlet, the player will still draw power (standby mode) when it is turned off.

Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.

The main plug is used as a disconnect device and shall stay readily operable at any time.

Maintenance of Cabinet

For safety reasons, be sure to disconnect the AC power cord from the AC outlet.

Do not use benzene, thinner, or other solvents for cleaning.

Wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth.

Restrictions on Playback

This player may not respond to all operating commands because some Blu-ray, DVD and CD discs allow specific or limited operation and features during playback. Please note that this is not a defect in the player.

Samsung cannot assure that this player will play every disc bearing the Blu-ray Disc, DVD or CD logo because disc formats evolve, and problems and errors may occur during the creation of Blu-ray Disc, DVD, CD software and/or the manufacture of discs. Please contact the SAMSUNG customer care center if you have questions or encounter difficulty in playing Blu-ray, DVD, or CD discs in this player. Also, refer to rest of this user manual for additional information on playback restrictions.

Case 1 : Connecting to a TV with an HDMI Cable - Best Quality (Recommended)

Using an HDMI cable, connect the HDMI OUT terminal on the rear of the player to the HDMI IN terminal of your TV.

Turn on the player and TV.

Press the input selector on your TV remote control until the HDMI signal from the player appears on your TV screen.

If you have set the remote control to operate your TV (See page 19), press the TV SOURCE button on the remote control and select HDMI as the external source of the TV.

NOTE

An HDMI cable outputs digital video/audio, so you don’t need to connect an audio cable.

If the player is connected to your TV in HDMI 720p, 1080i, 1080p output mode, you must use a High speed(category2) HDMI cable.

HDMI outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV. If your TV does not support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), random noise appears on the screen.

Depending on your TV, certain HDMI output resolutions may not work. Please refer to the user manual of your TV.

When you connect the player to the TV using the HDMI cable for the first time or to a new TV, the HDMI output resolution will be automatically set to the highest supported by the TV.

You must have an HDMI connection to enjoy videos with 3D technology.

A long HDMI cable may cause a screen noise. If this is the case, set Deep Color to Off in the menu.
