Notes on handling

7Important cautions

Installation of the system

Select a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too cold; between 5°C and 35°C (23°F and 95°F).

Leave sufficient distance between the system and the TV.

Do not use the system in a place subject to vibration.

Power cord

Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.

A small amount of power is always consumed while the power cord is connected to the wall outlet (center unit only).

When unplugging the power cord from the wall outlet, always pull on the plug, not the power cord.

To prevent malfunctions of the system

There are no user-serviceable parts inside. If anything goes wrong, unplug the power cord and consult your dealer.

Do not insert any metallic object into the system.

Do not use any non-standard shape disc (like a heart, flower or credit card, etc.) available on the market, because it may damage the system.

Do not use a disc with tape, stickers, or paste on it, because it may damage the system.

Note about copyright laws

Check the copyright laws in your country before recording from the discs. Recording of copyrighted material may infringe copyright laws.

Note about copyguard system

The discs are protected by copyguard system. When you connect the system to your VCR directly, the copyguard system activates and the picture may not be played back correctly.

7Safety precautions

Avoid moisture, water and dust

Do not place the system in moist or dusty places.

Avoid high temperatures

Do not expose the system to direct sunlight and do not place it near a heating device.

When you are away

When away on travel or for other reasons for an extended period of time, disconnect the power cord plugs from the wall outlet.

Do not block the vents

Blocking the vents may damage the system.

Care of the cabinet

When cleaning the system, use a soft cloth and follow the relevant instructions on the use of chemically-coated cloths. Do not use benzene, thinner or other organic solvents including disinfectants. These may cause deformation or discoloring.

If water gets inside the system

Turn the system off and disconnect the power cord plug from the wall outlet, then call the store where you made your purchase. Using the system in this condition may cause a fire or electrical shock.
