cause leakage of alkaline solution or other
electrolytic substance.

b) Never disassemble the battery pack, as that

could cause leakage of alkaline solution or
other electrolytic substance.

d) Never drive a nail into the battery pack.

Never strike the battery pack with a hammer.
Never step or tread on the battery pack.

e) If you ever smell an unusual odor, excessive

heat, discoloration, or deformation of the
battery pack, remove it from the player after
confirming safety and discontinue use of it.
Take the battery pack to an authorized
Toshiba service provider.

f) Keep the battery pack away from heat or fire.

g) Never dispose of used battery packs with

other ordinary solid wastes, since they

resulted, when attaching the battery pack to
the player. This sound confirms that the
battery pack has been properly attached.

29.Coin-shaped Battery

reach. Be careful not to ingest internally,
especially by children, as doing so may cause
poisoning.

b) Do not load a battery into the remote control

period of time, remove the battery to avoid
possible damage from battery corrosion.

30.After unpacking coin-shaped batteries, store them
in poly bags, etc. separately one by one when
unused. If you leave them unwrapped, they may
be short-circuited by contact with metal objects,
resulting in battery leakage, heat or bursting. This
may cause burns or injury.
The batteries must be completely discharged when
they are deposited in collection containers for old
batteries. If a charge remains, countermeasures to
prevent short circuits must be taken.

31.To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do
not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture.

To obtain a higher quality picture (When connected to a TV)

Occasionally, some picture noise not usually visible during a normal broadcast may
appear on the TV screen while playing a DVD video disc because the high
resolution pictures on these discs include a lot of information. While the amount of
noise depends on the TV you use with this player, you should generally reduce the
sharpness adjustment on the connected TV when viewing DVD video discs.

About the LCD

• The LCD panel contained in this product is
manufactured using an extremely high level of
precision technology; however, there may be an
occasional pixel (dot of light) that does not operate
properly (does not light, remains constantly lit, etc.).
This is a structural property of LCD technology, is not
a sign of malfunction, and is not covered under your
warranty. Such pixels are not visible when the picture
is viewed from a normal viewing distance.

• The cold cathode fluorescent lamp in the LCD panel
of this product, which illuminates the LCD panel from
the inside, will deteriorate with use (standard length
of life is approximately 10,000 hours of continuous
use at normal temperature). When the LCD panel
becomes dim, flickers, or does not illuminate, contact
your consumer electronics dealer for replacement.
The length of LCD panel life mentioned above is for
reference purposes only; actual length of life of the
LCD panel may vary.

• The brightness of the LCD monitor differs slightly
depending on the viewing angles. Adjust the LCD
monitor angle to obtain the best viewing. (The
recommended viewing angle is 90 degrees to the
monitor.)
