Welcome

Thank you

for choosing a Loewe product. We are happy to welcome you as our customer.

At Loewe we combine the highest standards of technology, design and user friendliness. This is equally true of TV, DVD, video, audio and acces- sories.

Neither technology nor design is an end in itself, but both are intended to provide our customers with the best possible audio and visual experience.

Our design is not influenced by short-term, fashionable trends. You have, after all, purchased a high-quality piece of equipment which you do not want to get tired of looking at tomorrow or the day after.

Set up

•Place the DVD recorder on a firm, level base.

•Do not place the DVD recorder in the vicinity of sources of intense heat or in direct sunlight.

•When installing in a cabinet or enclosed shelf: Leave about 2.5cm free space around the DVD player for unhindered air circulation to prevent build-up of heat.

•There can be interference to the images and sound of any nearby television, video recorder or radio. If this occurs, do not place the unit near to a television, video recorder or radio, or switch the unit off after removing the disc.

•Install the DVD recorder where there is nothing to obstruct the remote control‘s infrared signal from reaching the DVD recorder display.

•Do not place strong artificial light sources in front of the device. This may affect infrared reception.

•If there is an electrical storm, disconnect the antenna and mains plug. Power surges caused by lightning strikes can damage the unit through the antenna system or the mains.

•The antenna and mains should also be discon- nected if the unit is to remain unsupervised for a long period of time.

•The mains plug must be easily accessible so that the unit can be disconnected at any time.

•Lay the cable in such a way that it cannot get damaged. The power cable should not be kinked or laid over sharp edges, not stood upon or exposed to chemicals - the latter also applies to the device as a whole. A mains cable with dam- aged insulation can cause electric shocks and is a fire hazard.

•When removing the power plug, pull the body of the plug, and not the cable. Otherwise, the wires in the plug could get damaged and cause a short circuit the next time it is plugged in.

You should also read and follow the safety advice on the following pages.

Disposal

Cardboard box and packaging

You have opted for a durable and techni-

cally sophisticated product. In line with national regulations regarding the disposal of packaging materials, we pay a fee to authorised recyclers who collect packaging from dealers. However, we recommend that you keep the original cardboard box and the rest of the packaging materials so that the unit can, if necessary, be transported in the safest possible conditions.

The unit

Important: The EU Directive

2002/96/EG governs the proper

re-acceptance, handling and recycling of used electronic ap-

pliances.

Old electronic appliances must therefore be disposed of separately. Never throw this set in the normal domestic waste. You can hand in your old set free of charge at identified collection points or at your dealer if you buy a similar new set. Other details about re-acceptance (also for non-EU coun- tries) are available from your local administration.

Remote control batteries

The batteries provided contain no harmful materi- als such as cadmium, lead or mercury. Regulations concerning used batteries mean that batteries may no longer be thrown out with the household rubbish. You can dispose of used batteries free of charge at the collection points in commercial outlets. Your dealer will also have a collection point for used batteries.
