Recommended measures for optimum picture excellence
This unit is a precision device that is constructed using extremely
accurate technology.
•
Soiling or friction affecting the pickup lens or disc drive can
impair the image quality. At the worst, neither video nor
audio will be played back. To obtain optimum picture quality,
the player should be checked (cleaning and replacement of
some parts) every 1,000 hours. Note that this period varies
depending on the environment (temperature, humidity, dust,
etc..) in which the player is used.
•
Do not attempt to clean the pickup lens yourself.
To avoid interference while watching television
•
When not in use, we recommend that you leave the power for
your unit turned off. If you experience interference during
normal television viewing, simply turn the DVD player deck
off. This is not a malfunction of the unit or the television.
