Disc Storage & Management

Disc Handling

Disc Shape

Use discs with • regular shapes. If you use an irregular disc (a disc with a special shape), you can damage the player.

Holding discs

Avoid touching the surface • of a disc where data has been recorded.

Blu-ray Discs

Do not leave a Blu-ray Disc in the player for • long periods of time. Remove the Blu-ray Disc from the player and store it in its case. Be careful not to scratch or leave • fingerprints on the surface of the Blu-ray Disc.

DVD-VIDEO, Audio CD (CD-DA)

Wipe off dirt or contamination on the disc • with a soft cloth.

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, protective jacket.• If you move your player suddenly from a • cold place to a warm place, condensation may occur on the operating parts and lens and cause abnormal disc playback. If this occurs, unplug the player, wait for two hours, and then connect 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 sprays to clean discs. 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 on by 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 off. Do not move the player while it is playing • a disc. The disc can be scratched or damaged and the player’s internal parts can 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. Interference from exterior sources such as • lightening 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. Do not touch the power plug with a wet hand. • Otherwise, it can cause an electric shock.

Do not share one power socket with • multiple electric devices. Otherwise, it may cause an overheat, resulting in a fire. If you encounter an abnormal noise, burning • smell or smoke, turn off the power switch immediately and disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet. Then, contact the nearest customer centre for technical assistance. If you still use the product as it is, this may cause an electric shock or fire.

Maintenance of Cabinet

Before you clean the Blu-ray Disc’s cabinet, 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 Disc, DVD, and CD discs allow specific or limited operation and provide only certain features during playback. Please note that this is not a defect in the player.

Samsung cannot • guarantee 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, and CD software and/or the manufacture of discs.
