INTRODUCTION

Your DVD player

Your DVD player plays digital video discs conforming to the universal DVD Video
standard. With it, you will be able to enjoy full-length movies with true cinema
picture quality, and stereo or multichannel sound (depending on the disc and on
your playback set-up).

The unique features of DVD-Video, such as selection of soundtrack and subtitle
languages, and of different camera angles (again depending on the disc), are all
included.

What’s more, parental lock lets you decide which discs your children will be able
to see. You will find your player remarkably easy to use with the On-Screen
Display and player display in combination with the remote control.

Unpacking

First check and identify the contents of your package, as listed below:
• DVD player 

• Remote Control

• Audio / Video cable

• User Manual 

• Quick Start Guide

• Plastic frame

• Aluminium frame
• AC power adaptor

Placement

• Place the player on a firm, flat surface.
• Keep away from domestic heating equipment and direct sunlight.
• If the player cannot read CDs/DVDs correctly, try using a commonly 

available cleaning CD/DVD to clean the lens before taking the player to be
repaired. Other cleaning methods may destroy the lens.

• Always keep the disc door closed to avoid dust on the lens.
• The lens may cloud over when the player is suddenly moved from cold to warm

surroundings. It is then not possible to play a CD/DVD. Leave the player in a
warm environment until the moisture evaporates.
