AFTER USING YOUR PLAYER

•Remove the disc from the tray

•Close the player lid securely

•Unplug the adapter and coil the cables

•Store the player and accessories securely, away from sources of heat and damp - and out of the reach of children and pets.

NEVER store the player with the lid open!

CARE AND CLEANING

Occasionally wipe the player with a lint free duster. Never clean the player with liquids or solvents.

Do NOT clean the inside of the player tray with a cloth. Lightly blow out any dust. If your discs skip or don’t play properly, this is more likely to be caused by damage or dirt on the disc rather than any fault of the unit.

Clean the screen from time to time with a approved anti-static cleaner. NEVER wipe the screen with a tissue. Use a Calotherm cloth available from opticians.

CARE OF DISCS

DVD discs are fragile. Treat them with care. Always store them upright in their packing; away from direct sunlight, heat and damp.

When handling discs, hold the disc’s outer edge and/or the centre spindle hole. Do not touch the disc surface. Never bend or flex a disc.

Clean the disc surface with a soft, dry cloth. Wipe the disc surface gently, radially, from centre toward the outer edge. Never apply solvents to the surface of a disc.
