Important Safeguards and Precautions

Copy protection

This DVD player supports Macrovision copy protection.

On DVD discs that include a copy protection code, if the contents of the DVD disc are copied using a VCR, the copy protection code prevents the videotape copy from playing normally.

Recommended Measures for Optimum Picture Excellence

This unit is a precision device that is constructed using extremely 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 depending on the environment (temperature, humidity, dust, etc..) in which the player is used.

Do not attempt to clean the pickup lens yourself.
