Notes on playback operations of 
DVDs and VIDEO CDs

• Some playback operations of DVDs and 

VIDEO CDs may be intentionally set by 
software producers. Since this player plays 
DVDs and VIDEO CDs according to the 
disc contents the software producers 
designed, some playback features may not 
be available. Also, refer to the instructions 
supplied with the DVDs or VIDEO CDs.

• CDs and VIDEO CDs may be heard louder 

than DVDs even at the same volume 
setting. This is due to the recorded volume 
level intended by the producers. Set the 
volume lower in advance.

Notes about the Discs

On handling discs

• To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its 

edge. Do not touch the surface.

• Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

On storing

• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or 

heat sources such as hot air ducts, or leave

• After playing, store the disc in its case.

On cleaning

• Fingerprints or dust on a disc may cause 

deteriorated image or sound quality. Leave

• Wipe the disc with a soft cloth from the 

center out.

• If the disc is very dirty, first wipe it with a 

damp cloth, then wipe it again with a dry 
cloth.

• Do not use solvents such as benzine, 

thinner, commercially available cleaners, or 
anti-static spray intended for vinyl LPs.
