IMPORTANT NOTE

The mains lead on this equipment is supplied with
a molded plug incorporating a fuse. The value of
the fuse is indicated on the pin face of the plug.
If it requires replacing, a fuse approved to BS1362
of the same rating must be used.

Never use the plug with the fuse cover omitted
if the cover is detachable. If a replacement fuse
cover is required, it must be of the same colour as
the pin face of 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 mains jack,
as there is a risk of shock hazard from the bared
flexible cord.

To disconnect the apparatus from the mains, the
plug must be pulled out from the mains socket,
therefore the mains plug shall be readily operable.

Disc Storage & Management

• Holding Discs

- Fingerprints or scratches on
a disc may reduce sound and
picture quality or cause skipping.

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

- Hold the disc by the edges so that fingerprints
will not get on the surface.

- Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

• Cleaning Discs

- If you get fingerprints or dirt on a
disc, clean it with a mild detergent
diluted in water and wipe with a
soft cloth.

- When cleaning, wipe gently from the inside to
the outside of the disc.

• Disc Storage
`Do not keep in direct sunlight.
`Keep in a cool ventilated area.

Handling Cautions

• Do not expose this apparatus to dripping or

splashing. Do not put objects filled with liquids,
such as vases on the apparatus.

• To turn this apparatus off completely, you must

pull the power plug out of the wall socket.
Consequently, the power plug must be easily
and readily accessible at all times.

• Do not plug multiple electric devices into the

same wall socket. Overloading a socket can
cause it to overheat, resulting in a fire.

• Before connecting other components to this
player, be sure to turn them off.

• 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.

• If the product makes an abnormal noise or
produces a burning smell or smoke, turn off
the power switch immediately and disconnect
the power plug from the wall outlet. Then,
contact the nearest customer service centre for
technical assistance. Do not use the product.
Using the product as it is may cause a fire or an
electric shock.

headaches.
If you experience any such symptom, stop
viewing 3D TV, remove the 3D Active Glasses,
and rest.

• Watching 3D images for an extended period of
time may cause eye strain. If you feel eye strain,
stop viewing 3D TV, remove your 3D Active
Glasses, and rest.

• A responsible adult should frequently check on
children who are using the 3D function.
If there are any reports of tired eyes, headaches,
dizziness, or nausea, have the child stop viewing
3D TV and rest.

• Do not use the 3D Active Glasses for other

|

4 English

01 Safety Information

• Do not use the 3D function or 3D Active Glasses
while walking or moving around. Using the 3D
function or 3D Active Glasses while moving
around may cause you to bump into objects,
trip, and/or fall, and cause serious injury.

• If you want to enjoy 3D content, connect a 3D
device (3D compliant AV receiver or TV) to the
player's HDMI OUT port using a high-speed
HDMI cable. Put on 3D glasses before playing
the 3D content.

• The player outputs 3D signals only through
HDMI cable connected to the HDMI OUT port.

• As the video resolution in 3D play mode is fixed
according to the resolution of the original 3D
video, you can not change the resolution to your
preference.

• Some functions such as BD Wise, screen size
adjustment, and resolution adjustment may not
operate properly in 3D play mode.

• You must use a high-speed HDMI cable for
proper output of the 3D signal.

• Stay at least three times the width of the screen
from the TV when watching 3D images. For
example, if you have a 46-inch screen, stay 138
inches (11.5 feet) from the screen.

• Place the 3D video screen at eye level for the
best 3D picture.

• When the player is connected to some 3D
devices, the 3D effect may not function properly.

• This player does not convert 2D content into
3D.

• "Blu-ray 3D" and "Blu-ray 3D" logo are

Networks and the Internet

When you connect this player to a network,
you can use network based applications and
functions such as Smart Hub and BD-LIVE,
and upgrade the player's software through the
network connection. For more information about
accessing and using Internet services, see the
Network Services chapter of this manual on pages
48~59. Instructions for configuring the network
connection start below.

Configuring Your Network Connection

Before you begin, contact your ISP to find out
if your IP address is static or dynamic. If it is
dynamic, and you have a wired or wireless
network, we recommend using the Automatic
configuration procedures described below.

If you are connecting to a wired network, connect
the player to your router using a LAN cable before
you start the configuration procedure.
If you are connecting to a wireless network,
disconnect any wired network connection before
you begin.
To begin configuring your network connection,
follow these steps:

example), and then press the v button.
Use the number keypad on your remote
control to enter the numbers for the value.
You can also enter numbers using the ▲▼
buttons. Use the ◄► buttons on the remote
control to move from entry field to entry field
within a value. When done with one value,
press the v button.

6. Press the ▲ or ▼ button to move to another
value, and then enter the numbers for that
value following the instructions in Step 5.

7. Repeat Steps 5 and 6 until you have filled in
all values.
