Safety Information

Before operating the DVD player, check that the operating voltage indicated on the typeplate (or the voltage indication beside the voltage selector) is identical with the voltage of your local power supply. If not, please consult your dealer.

Place the DVD player on a flat, hard and stable surface.

There must be sufficient room in front of the player for the disc tray to be opened.

In cabinet, allow about 2.5cm (1 inch) of free space all around the player for adequate ventilation.

Do not expose your player to extreme of temperature or humidity.

If the DVD player is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense on the lens of the disc unit inside the DVD player. Should this occur, the DVD player would not operate normally. Leave the power on for about one hour with no disc in the DVD player until normal playback is possible.

The mechanical parts of the set contain self- lubricating bearings and must not be oiled or lubricated.

When the DVD player is switched to Standby mode, it is still consuming some power. To disconnect the system from the power supply completely, remove the AC power plug from the wall socket.
