Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near

the DVD player. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the DVD player for a long time. They will leave marks on the ﬁ nish.

The top and rear panels of the DVD player may

become warm after a long period of use. This is not a malfunction.

When the DVD player is not in use, be sure to remove

the disc and turn off the power.

If you do not use the DVD player for a long period, the

unit may not function properly in the future. Turn on and use the DVD player occasionally.

Introduction

Notes on moisture condensation

Moisture condensation damages the DVD player. Please read the following carefully.

Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you pour a cold drink into a glass on a warm day. Drops of water form on the outside of the glass. In the same way, moisture may condense on the optical pick-up lens inside this unit, one of the most crucial internal parts of the DVD player.

Moisture condensation occurs during the following

cases.

When you bring the DVD player directly from a cold

place to a warm place.

When you use the DVD player in a room where you just

turned on the heater, or a place where the cold wind from the air conditioner directly hits the unit.

In summer, when you use the DVD player in a hot and

humid place just after you move the unit from an air conditioned room.

When you use the DVD player in a humid place.

Do not use the DVD player when moisture

condensation may occur.

If you use the DVD player in such a situation, it may

damage discs and internal parts. Remove the disc, connect the power cord of the DVD player to the wall outlet, turn on the DVD player, and leave it for two or three hours. After two or three hours, the DVD player will have warmed up and evaporated any moisture. Keep the DVD player connected to the wall outlet and moisture condensation will seldom occur.
