PrecautionsSafety Warnings

1
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 (3~4inches). 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 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
atmosphere. If transporting the player during the winter, wait approximately 2 hours until
the unit has reached room temperature before using.

Do not use this video product near water­forexample, near a bathtub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, and the like.
OVERLOADING
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in the risk of fire or electric shock.
VENTILATION
Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the video product and to protect it from overheating these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the video product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This video product should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This video product should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer's instructions have been followed.
POWER CORD PROTECTION
Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.
CLEANING
Unplug this video product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
LIGHTNING
For added protection of this video product receiver during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the video product due to lightning and power-line surges.
OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY
Never push objects of any kind into this product through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the video product.
ACCESSORIES
Do not place this video product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The video product may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the video product. Any mounting of the appliance should follow the manufacturer's instructions and should use a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer.
CART
An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.
POWER SOURCES
This video product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power company. For video products intended to be operated from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.
POWER LINES
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
POLARIZATION
This video product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other.) This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing
the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING
If an outside antenna is connected to the
antenna terminal, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.
In the U.S.A section 810 of the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. See the figure below.

A cooling fan is mounted on the rear panel of the center unit to prevent abnormal temperature inside the center unit, thus assuring normal operation. The cooling fan automatically starts rotating to supply external cool air to the inside of the center unit when the internal temperature exceeds the specified limit.
For safety, observe the following carefully.
Make sure there is good ventilation around the center unit. Poor ventilation could overheat and damage the canter unit.
DO NOT block the cooling fan and the ventilation openings or holes. (If they are blocked by a newspaper or cloth, etc., the heat may not be able to escape.)
