Recommended Measures for Optimum Picture Ex-
cellence
This unit is a precision device that is constructed using ex-
tremely accurate technology.
Soiling or friction affecting the pickup lens or disc drive can
impair the image quality. At the worst, neither video nor audio
will be played back. To obtain optimum picture quality, the
player should be checked (cleaning and replacement of some
parts) every 1,000 hours. Note that this period varies de-
pending on the environment (temperature, humidity, dust,
ect.) in which the player is used.
Do not attempt to clean the pickup lens yourself.
Condensation
Moisture may form on the pickup lens in the following condi-
tions:
• Immediately after a heater has been turned on.
• In a steamy or very humid room.
• When the unit is suddenly moved from a cold environment
to a warm one.
If moisture forms inside this unit, it may not operate properly. In
this case, turn on the power and wait about one hour for the
moisture to evaporate.
