Notes on moisture condensation
Moisture condensation damages the unit. Please
read the following carefully.
Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you
pour a cold drink into a glass on a warm day. Drops of
water form on the outside of the glass. In the same way,
moisture may condense on the optical pick-up lens
inside this unit, one of the most crucial internal parts of
the unit.
Moisture condensation occurs during the
following cases.
When you transport the unit directly from a cold place
to a warm place.
When you use the unit in a room where you just
turned on the heater, or a place where the cold air
from the air conditioner directly hits the unit.
In summer, when you use the unit in a hot and humid
place just after you move the unit from an air
conditioned room.
When you use the unit in a humid place.
Do not use the unit when moisture condensation
may occur.
If you use the unit in such a situation, it may damage
discs and internal parts. Remove the disc, connect
the AC adapter, turn on the unit, and leave it for two
or three hours. After two or three hours, the unit will
have warmed up and evaporated any moisture.

Do not shock the LCD monitor. It may cause unit
damage and malfunction.
Do not use the unit in a place subject to vibration.
Neglecting this may cause malfunction of the unit or
damage to the disc.
Do not leave the unit in a vehicle. Rise or drop in
temperature may result in malfunction of the unit.
When transporting the unit, the original shipping
carton and packing materials come in handy. For
maximum protection, repack the unit as it was
originally packaged at the factory.
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near
the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in
contact with the unit for a long time. They will leave
marks on the finish.
The unit may become warm after a long period of
use. This is not a malfunction.
When the unit is not in use, be sure to remove the
disc and turn off the power.
If you do not use the unit for a long period, the unit
may not function properly in the future. Turn on and
use the unit occasionally.

When you place this unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the
playback picture may become poor and the sound
may be distorted. In this case, move the unit away
from the TV, radio, or VCR.
Notes on cleaning
Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.
For stubborn dirt, soak the cloth in a weak detergent
solution, wring well and wipe. Use a dry cloth to wipe
it dry.
Do not use any type of solvent, such as thinner and
benzine, as they may damage the surface of the unit.
If you use a chemical saturated cloth to clean the unit,
follow that product’s instructions.
