laundry tub; in a wet basement; or near a swimming pool;
and the like.
8) Accessories - Do not place this product on an unstable
cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The product may fall,
causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the product. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod,
bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or
sold with the product. Any mounting of the product should
follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a mounting
accessory recommended by the manufacturer.
9) A product and cart combination
should be moved with care. Quick
stops, excessive force, and uneven
surfaces may cause the product and
cart combination to overturn.
10) Ventilation - Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the
product and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should
never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa,
rug, or other similar surface. This 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 adhered to.
11) Power Sources - This 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 power supply to
your home, consult your product dealer or local power
company. For products intended to operate from battery
power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.
12) Grounding or Polarization - This product may be 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.
13) 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,

surges.
15) Power lines - An outside antenna system should not be
located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other

a) When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged,
b) If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the
product,
c) If the product has been exposed to rain or water,
d) If the product does not operate normally by following
the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls
that are covered by the operating instructions as an
improper adjustment of other controls may result in
damage and will often require extensive work by a
qualified technician to restore the product to its normal
operation,
e) If the product has been dropped or damaged in any way,
and
f) When the product exhibits a distinct change in perfor-
mance - this indicates a need for service.
20) Replacement Parts - When replacement parts are required,
be sure the service technician has used replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may
result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
21) Safety Check - Upon completion of any service or repairs
to this product, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to determine that the product is in proper operating condition.

player to your TV’s 75-ohm coaxial antenna terminal using a Stereo Audio/Video RF Modulator (commercially available). Connect the audio and video outputs of the DVD player to the audio and video inputs on
the RF Modulator, and then connect the coaxial output of the RF Modulator (usually marked “TO TV”) to
the 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal on your TV. Follow the instruction supplied with the RF Modulator for
more details.

ambience with powerful and high-quality surround sound of a professional standard such as can be heard in
movie theaters.
Use audio coaxial digital cables (commercially available) for the audio connections.
Notes
¡Be sure to turn off the power to all components in
the system before connecting another component.
¡Refer to the Operation Manuals for the components
to be connected to the DVD player.
