Finding a Location for Your Player

Here are some things you should consider when deciding on a proper location for your player:

The power consumption of your player is about 25W (average). o Use the included power cord.

o When an extension cord is required, use one with the correct power rating.

To take full advantage of your player, you will need an Internet connection. Your player has 802.11n wireless built-in (which is also compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g wireless networks), so you can connect your player to the Internet through your wireless home network. Or you can connect to the Internet by plugging in an Ethernet cable (not included) from your Internet connection to the Ethernet port on your player. A wired connection may provide a more consistent connection depending on the conditions in your home environment. See Connecting to your home network on page 20 for detailed information on setting up your Internet connection.

For proper ventilation, you must allow at least 4 inches (10 cm) between the back of your player and the wall.

Avoid installing your player in places with high humidity, dust, or smoke so you do not shorten the service life of the electronic components.

Read this user manual carefully before setting up your player.
