Cautions on use
When moving the player
When moving the player, check first that there is no
disc loaded and that the disc tray is closed. Then press
STANDBY/ON
on the player (or
STANDBY/ON
on
the remote control), wait for the
OFF
indicator on the
front panel display to turn off, then unplug the power
cord. Moving the player with a disc inside it could result
in damage.
Place of installation
Choose a stable place near the TV or stereo system
being used with the player.
Do not place the player on top of a TV or color moni-
tor. Also install it away from cassette decks and
other devices easily affected by magnetic forces.
Avoid the following types of places:
Places exposed to direct sunlight
Humid or poorly ventilated places
Extremely hot places
Places exposed to vibrations
Places in which there is much dust or cigarette
smoke
Places exposed to soot, steam or heat (kitchens,
etc.)
Do not place objects on the player.
Do not place any objects on top of the player.
Do not obstruct the ventilation holes.
Do not use the player on shaggy rugs, beds, sofas, etc.,
or wrapped in cloth, etc. Doing so will prevent the heat
from dispersing, leading to damage.
Do not expose to heat.
Do not place the player on top of an amplifier or other
component that generates heat. When placing it in
a rack, to avoid the heat given off by the amplifier or
other audio component, place it on a shelf below the
amplifier.
Turn off the player’s power
when not using it.
Depending on signal conditions, striped patterns may
appear on a TV screen and noise may enter the sound of
radio broadcasts when the player’s power is on. If this
happens, turn the player’s power off.
