This product satisfies CE regulations when shielded cables and connectors are used to connect the unit to other equipment.

To prevent electromagnetic interference with electric appliances, such as radios and televisions, use shielded cables and connectors for connections.

IMPORTANT NOTE

The mains lead on this equipment is supplied with a moulded plug incorporating a fuse. The value of the fuse is indicated on the pin face of the plug.

If it requires replacing, a fuse approved to BS1362 of the same rating must be used. Never use the plug with the fuse cover omitted if the cover is detachable. If a replacement fuse cover is required, it must be of the same colour as the pin face of the plug. Replacement covers are available from your dealer.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for the power points in your house or the cable is not long enough to reach a power point, you should obtain a suitable safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer for assistance.

However, if there is no alternative to cutting off the plug, remove the fuse and then safely dispose of the plug. Do not connect the plug to a mains jack, as there is a risk of shock hazard from the bared flexible cord.

To disconnect the apparatus from the mains, the plug must be pulled out from the mains socket, therefore the mains plug shall be readily operable.

Disc Storage & Management

Disc HandlingDisc Shape

•• Use discs with regular shapes. If you use an irregular disc (a disc with a special

shape), you can damage the player.

Holding discs

•• Avoid touching the surface of a disc where data has been recorded.

Blu-ray Discs

•• Do not keep under direct sunlight.

•• Keep in a cool ventilated area.

•• Store vertically.

•• Keep in a clean, protective jacket.

•• If you move your player suddenly from a cold place to a warm place, condensation may occur on the operating parts and lens and cause abnormal disc playback. If this occurs, unplug the player, wait for two hours, and then connect the plug to the power outlet. Then, insert the disc, and try to play back again.

Handling Cautions

•• Do not write on the printed side with a ball- point pen or pencil.

•• Do not use record cleaning sprays or antistatic sprays to clean discs. Also, do not use volatile chemicals, such as benzene or thinner.
