Precautions

Things to consider...

Protect components from overheating

Don’t block ventilation holes on any of the components. Arrange the components so that air can circulate freely.

Don’t stack components.

DVD+Rewritable

DVD-R, DVD-RW - Most DVD-R

DVD+RW discs (rewritable). Compatibility is dependent on the burner and discs you use.

When you place components in a stand, make sure you allow adequate ventilation.

If you connect an audio receiver or amplifier, place it on the top shelf.

Position cables properly to avoid audio interference

Insert each cable firmly into the designated jack.

If you place components above the TV, route all cables down the side of the back of the TV instead of straight down the middle of the back of the TV.

If your antenna uses 300-ohm twin lead cables, do not coil the cables. Also, keep the twin lead cables away from audio/video cables.

Installation in a car

When installing the player in a car, make sure it is firmly secured to stop it being flung about if the car brakes or pulls away sharply. A badly fitted player can endanger the life of the driver and passengers.

Your DVD player responds to the region management information recorded on a DVD disc. If the Region Code on the disc and the Region Code on the player don’t match, the disc won’t play. The region code for your player is region 1.

So, if you are going to buy a DVD disc, pay attention to the logo: it has to be the right one. ALL means all regions.

Region Codes - 1: USA, Canada - 2: Europe, the Middle East, Rep. of South Africa, Japan - 3: Southeast Asia, Taiwan - 4: Central America, South America, Australia, Mexico, New Zealand - 5: Russian federation, Africa (except Egypt and Rep. of South Africa), India, Pakistan - 6: China.
