3. Heed all warnings.

4. Follow all instructions.

5. Do not use this apparatus near water.

6. Clean only with 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 amplifiers) 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 they exit from 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 and disconnect the antenna or

cable system 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 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.

15. Do not overload wall outlets; extension cords, or integral

convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

16. Never expose the apparatus to dripping or splashing or

place items such as vases, aquariums, any other item filled with liquid, or candles on top of the unit.

17.

Keep your fingers well clear of the disc tray as it is closing. Neglecting to do so may cause serious personal injury.

18. Do not place anything on top of this unit.

19. Do not place the apparatus on amplifiers or equipment that may produce heat.

20. Never block or cover the slots or openings in the unit. Never place the unit:

• too close to drapes, curtains, or walls; or

• in a confined space such as a bookcase, built-in cabinet,

or any other place with poor ventilation. The slots and openings are provided to protect the unit from overheating and to help maintain reliable operation.

21. Do not use a cracked, deformed, or repaired disc. These discs are easily broken and may cause serious personal injury and apparatus malfunction.

22. If the apparatus should emit smoke or an unusual odor, immediately disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet. Wait until the smoke or smell stops, then ask your dealer for a check and repair. Neglecting to do so may cause fire.

23. During thunderstorms, do not touch the connecting cables or the apparatus.

24.

DANGER: RISK OF SERIOUS

PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH!

• Use extreme care to make sure you are never in a

position where your body (or any item you are in contact with, such as a ladder or screwdriver) can accidentally touch overhead power lines. Never locate the antenna near overhead power lines or other electrical circuits.

• Never attempt to install any of the following during

lightning activity: a) an antenna system; or b) cables, wires, or any home theater component connected to an antenna or phone system.

25. Always make sure the antenna system is properly grounded to provide adequate protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges (see Section 810 of the National Electric Code).

PRECAUTIONS

Servicing

• Please refer to relevant topics on “TROUBLESHOOTING” on pages 108-111 before returning the product.

• If you need to call a customer service representative, please know the model number and serial number of your product before you call. This information is displayed on the back of the product. Also, please take a moment to identify the problem you are having, and be prepared to explain this to the representative. If you believe the representative will need to help you with operations, please stay near the product. Our representatives will be happy to assist you.

Cleaning The Cabinet

• Wipe the front panel and other exterior surfaces of the unit with a soft, slightly damp cloth.

• Never use a solvent, thinner, benzene or alcohol to clean the unit. Do not spray insecticide liquid near the unit. Such chemicals may discolor the surface or damage the unit.

Cleaning Discs

• When a disc becomes dirty, clean it with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the center to out. Do not wipe in a circular motion.

• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, detergent, abrasive cleaning agents or antistatic spray intended for analog records.

Cleaning The Disc Lens

• If this unit still does not perform properly although you refer to the relevant sections and to “TROUBLESHOOTING” in this owner’s manual, the laser optical pickup unit may be dirty. Consult your dealer or an Authorized Service Center for inspection and cleaning of the laser optical pickup unit.

Disc Handling

• Handle the discs so that fingerprints and dust do not adhere to the surfaces of the discs.

• Always store the disc in its protective case when it is not used.

Maintenance

If the remote control does not work properly, you can test if the remote control sends out the infrared signal with AM radio or a digital camera (including built-in camera of cellular phone). It will help to define the cause of malfunction.

• With an AM radio:

Tune an AM radio to a station with no broadcasting. Press a button on remote control toward the radio. Sound will be fluttering when you press any key and the radio receives the signal. This means the remote control is working.

• With a digital camera (including built-in camera of

cellular phone):

Direct a digital camera to remote control, press and hold a button on remote control. If infrared light appears through digital camera, the remote control is working.

IR Signal Check

Dolby Digital Recording

“Dolby® Digital Recording enables consumers to record high-quality video with stereo sound on recordable DVD discs. The technology, when utilized instead of PCM recording, also saves recordable disc space, allowing for higher video resolution or extended recording time on each DVD. DVDs created using Dolby Digital Recording will play back on all DVD-video players.” Note: This is true when the players are compatible with actual recordable DVD discs.

“WMA” (Windows Media Audio) is a new audio codec developed by Microsoft® in the United States of America.

*HDMI: High Definition Multimedia Interface

To play back the digital video images of a DVD via an HDMI connection, it is necessary that both the player and the display device (or an AV amplifier) support a copyright protection system called HDCP (high-bandwidth digital content protection system). HDCP is copy protection technology that comprises data encryption and authentication of the connected AV device. This unit supports HDCP. Please read the operating instructions of your display device (or AV amplifier) for more information.

Note

• Because HDMI is an evolving technology, it is possible that some devices with an HDMI input may not operate properly with this unit.

• When using an HDCP-incompatible display device, the image will not be viewed properly.

• Among the devices that support HDMI, some devices can control other devices via the HDMI connector; however, this unit cannot be controlled by another device vice the HDMI connector.

• The audio signals from the HDMI connector (including the sampling frequency, the number of channels and bit length) maybe limited by the device that is connected.

• Among the monitors that support HDMI, some do not support audio output (for example, projectors). In connections with device such as this unit, audio signals are not output from the HDMI output connector.

• When this unit’s HDMI connector is connected to a DVI-D compatible monitor (HDCP compatible) with an HDMIDVI converter cable, the signals are output in digital RGB.

• If the connected equipment is not compatible with HDMI BITSTREAM, DTS sound will not be output.

• When the power failure occurs, or when you unplug the unit, some problems in the HDMI setting might occur. Please check and set the HDMI setting again.
