CONDENSATION
Moisture will form in the operating section of the player if the player is brought from cool surroundings into
a warm room or if the temperature of the room rises
suddenly. When this happens, the player’s performance
will be impaired.
To prevent this, let the player stand in its new surroundings for about an hour before switching it on, or
make sure that the room temperature rises gradually.
Condensation may also form during the summer if the player is
exposed to the breeze from an air conditioner. In such cases,
change the location of the player.
POWER-CORD CAUTION
Handle the power cord by the plug. Do not pull out the plug by
tugging the cord and never touch the power cord when your hands
are wet as this could cause a short circuit or electric shock. Do not
place the unit, a piece of furniture, etc., on the power cord, or
pinch the cord. Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with other

GLOSSARY
LD terms
Chapter number
Just like the numbers assigned to chapters of a book, the
LD disc is divided into several chapters and each of them is
assigned a chapter number. If the chapter numbers are
recorded on the disc, it is possible to perform operations
such as the chapter search which quickly searches the desired chapter.
÷ Some LD discs do not contain recorded chapter num-
bers.
Frame number
A frame number is assigned to every frame on a CAV disc.
This makes possible operations such as the frame search
which searches desired images based on their frame numbers.
Time number
This refers to the elapsed playing time from the beginning
of the disc that is recorded on CLV discs as well as on CAV
discs with a TOC*1. This allows operations such as the
time number search which searches desired images based
on their time numbers.
CDV/CD terms
Track number
The CDV or CD disc is divided into several tracks and each
of them is assigned a track number. With the CDV disc, the
track numbers are recorded across the audio and video
parts. This allows operations such as the track search which
quickly searches the desired track.
TOC (*1)
CD and CDV discs contain non-audio information called TOC
the (Table Of Contents) at the beginning of the disc. As this
name implies, the TOC contains information on the number
of tracks and their playing time just like the table of contents of a book.
÷ Some LD discs are not provided with a TOC section.
÷ The LD with TOC and the CDV belong to the same
category of "optical video disc systems with digital audio".
LD (LaserDisc)
LaserDiscs include a standard play disc (CAV) and an extended play disc (CLV) depending on the signal recording
formats.
CAV
[Standard Play/CAV] or simply [Standard Play] is indicated
