Precautions
When carrying the unit
Perform the following procedure to
protect the disc mechanism.
Use the buttons on the unit to perform
this operation.
1
Press
to turn on the system.
2
Press FUNCTION repeatedly to select
“DVD/CD”.
3
Remove the disc.
Press
to open and close the disc
tray.
Wait until “NO DISC” appears in the
display panel.
4
Unplug the AC power cord (mains
lead).
Notes on discs
Before playing, wipe the disc with a
cleaning cloth from the center outward
to the edge.
Do not clean discs with solvents, such as
benzine, thinner, or commercially
available cleaners or anti-static spray
intended for vinyl LPs.
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or
heat sources such as hot air ducts, nor
leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight.
On safety
Completely disconnect the AC power
cord (mains lead) from the wall outlet
(mains) if it is not going to be used for an
extended period of time. When
unplugging the system, always grip the
plug. Never pull the cord itself.
Should any solid object or liquid get into
the system, unplug the system, and
have it checked by qualified personnel
before operating it again.
AC power cord (mains lead) must be
changed only at the qualified service
shop.
On handling the unit
This system is not drip-proof or
waterproof. Make sure not to splash
water on the system or clean it with
water.
On placement
Do not place the system in an inclined
position or in locations that are
extremely hot, cold, dusty, dirty, or
humid or lacking adequate ventilation,
or subject to vibration, direct sunlight or
a bright light.
Be careful when placing the system on
surfaces that have been specially
treated (for example, wax, oil, polish) as
staining or discoloration of the surface
may result.
If the system is brought directly from a
cold to a warm location or is placed in a
very damp room, moisture may
condense on the lens inside the unit,
and cause the system to malfunction. In
this situation, remove the disc, and
leave the system turned on for about an
hour until the moisture evaporates.
On heat buildup
Heat buildup on the unit during
operation is normal and is not a cause
for alarm.
Do not touch the cabinet if it has been
used continuously at a high volume
because the cabinet may have become
hot.
Do not obstruct the ventilation holes.
On the speaker system
The built-in speaker system is not
magnetically shielded, and the picture on
nearby TV sets may become magnetically
distorted. In this situation, turn off the TV,
wait 15 to 30 minutes, and turn it back on.
If there is no improvement, move the
system far away from the TV.
Cleaning the cabinet
Clean this system with a soft cloth slightly
moistened with a mild detergent
solution.
Do not use any type of abrasive pad,
scouring powder, or solvent, such as
thinner, benzine, or alcohol.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Caution:
If you leave a still video
image or on-screen display image
displayed on your TV for an extended
period of time via this system, you risk
permanent damage to your TV screen.
Projection TVs are especially
susceptible to this.
