Important cautions

Installation of the unit

Select a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too cold (between 5oC and 35oC).

Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.

Do not use the player in a place subject to vibrations.

Power cord

Do not handle the power cord with wet hands!

A small amount of power (3.1 W) is always consumed while the power cord is connected to the wall outlet.

When unplugging the player from the wall outlet, always pull the plug, not the power cord.

To prevent malfunction of the unit

There are no user-serviceable parts inside. If anything goes wrong, unplug the power cord and consult your dealer.

Do not insert any metallic object into the unit.

Do not use any non-standard shape disc available on the market, because it may damage the unit.

Do not use a disc with tape, seals, or paste on it, because damage to the unit may result.

Note about the copyguard system

The DVD VIDEO disc is protected by the copyguard system. When you connect the unit to your VCR directly, the copyguard system activates and the picture may not be played back correctly.
