DVD copy protection
In accordance with the DVD standard, your DVD player is equipped with a Copy Protection system, which can be switched on
and off by the DVD disc itself, in order to make any recording of the relevant DVD disc onto a videotape of very poor picture
quality, or even impossible.“This product incorporates copyright protection technology that is protected by method claims of
certain U.S. patents and other intellectual property rights owned by Macrovision Corporation and other rights owners. Use of this
copyright protection technology must be authorized by Macrovision Corporation, and is intended for home use only unless
otherwise authorized by Macrovision Corporation. Reverse engineering or disassembly is prohibited.”

Chapter 1 Connections and Setup
Some points to check before you connect
• Ensure that the mains supply in your house complies with that indicated on the identification
sticker located on the back of your appliance.
• Install your appliance horizontally, away from any source of heat (fireplace) or appliances
creating strong magnetic or electric fields.The components of this appliance are sensitive to
heat.The maximum ambient temperature should not exceed 35° Celsius.
• Leave sufficient space around the appliance to allow adequate ventilation: 10 cm on either side
and at the rear, as well as 7 cm above the top are ideal.
• The humidity of the room should not exceed 75%. If you have to use the appliance outdoors,
do not expose it to rain or splashing water.The apparatus should not be exposed to dripping
or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, should be placed on the apparatus.
•Moving it from a cold environment to a warm one is likely to cause condensation on some
components inside the appliance. Let the condensation disappear of its own accord before
turning the appliance on again.
• Before moving the player, make sure the disc tray is empty.
