Important Safety Instructions
Read these operating instructions carefully
before using the unit. Follow all the safety
instructions listed below.
Keep these operating instructions handy for
future reference.
1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.
6. Clean only with a dry cloth.
7. Do not block any ventilation openings.
Install in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat sources
such as radiators, heat registers,
stoves, or other apparatus (including AV
receivers) that produce heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of
the polarized or grounding-type plug.
A polarized plug has two blades with
one wider than the other. A grounding
type plug has two blades and a third
grounding prong. The wide blade or
the third prong are provided for your
safety. If the provided plug does not fit
into your outlet, consult an electrician for
replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from being
walked on or pinched particularly at
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the
point where it exits the apparatus.
11. Only use attachments/accessories
specified by the manufacturer.
12.
Use only with the cart,
stand, tripod, bracket,
or table specified by
the manufacturer,
or sold with the
apparatus. When
a cart is used, use
caution when moving the cart/apparatus
combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning
storms or when unused for long periods
of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel. Servicing is required when
the apparatus has been damaged in any
way, such as when the power-supply
cord or plug is damaged, liquid has
been spilled or objects have fallen into
the apparatus, the apparatus has been
exposed to rain or moisture, does not
operate normally, or has been dropped.
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.
`Keep in a clean protection jacket and
store vertically.
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 center for technical assistance. Do
not use the product. Using the product as
it is may cause a fire or an electric shock.
