Care and Maintenance

Cleaning the DVD Player

Wipe the front panel and other exterior surfaces of the Player with a soft, slightly damp cloth.

Never use a solvent, thinner, benzene, or alcohol to clean the Player. Do not spray insecticide liquid near the Player. Such chemicals may discolor the surface or damage the Player.

Cleaning a Disc

Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the Disc.

Wipe the Disc in a straight line from the center to the edge. Never wipe the Disc in a circular motion.

Do not use detergent or abrasive cleaning agents.

Handle the Discs by the edges so fingerprints and dust do not adhere to the surfaces of the Discs.

Always store the Disc in its protective case when it is not in use.

Checking the Laser

If the DVD Player does not operate as described in this owner’s manual, the laser may be dirty. Consult an Authorized Service Center for inspec- tion and cleaning of the laser.

Don’t use cleaners.

Wipe Discs from the center to the edge.

Handle Discs by the edges.

AUDIO OUT Jacks: Red and white jacks on the back of the DVD Player that send audio to another system (TV or stereo).

COAXIAL jack: Sends digital audio to a stereo, allowing you to adjust the volume at the stereo. The stereo must have a Coaxial In jack. This connection provides the 5.1 channel surround sound as heard in movie theaters. The Player’s Coaxial jack is black.

COMPONENT VIDEO OUT (Y Pr/Cr Pb/Cb) Jacks: Green, red, and blue jacks on the back of the DVD Player that send high-quality video to a TV that has Component Video In jacks.

Dolby Digital: A surround sound system that provides 5.1 channel sound as used in movie theaters.

Letterbox: A TV Aspect setting (4:3). Displays the DVD picture in full- width, with black bars at the top and bottom of the TV screen. This format is used often when you see a movie in a theater. If the DVD is not recorded in letterbox format, selecting Letterbox will have no effect. (For example, some DVDs are two-sided, with one side playing in Letterbox and the other side playing in a normal format.)

Pan & Scan: A TV Aspect setting (4:3). Displays the video with full-height picture, with one or both sides of the picture trimmed to fit your TV screen. Remote Control: The small electronic unit that came with your DVD Player; allows you to operate your DVD Player from a distance.

S-Video: Produces a clearer picture by sending separate signals for the lumi- nance and the color. If you connect an optional S-Video cable, you will not need to use the supplied yellow video cable. You can use S-Video only if your TV has an S-Video In jack.

VIDEO OUT Jack: Yellow jack on the rear of the DVD Player that sends video to a TV. Use the supplied yellow video cable to make this connection. Wide: A TV Aspect setting (16:9). Displays the video appropriately when you connect the DVD Player to a widescreen TV.
