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

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 DVDs, VCDs, SVCDs, and CDs.
Recording of copyrighted material may infringe copyright
laws.
Note about copy guard system
