Important Information
Disc Precautions
Be Careful of Scratches and Dust
• BD, DVD and CD discs are sensitive to dust, fingerprints
and especially scratches. A scratched disc may not
be able to be played back. Handle discs with care and
store them in a safe place.
Proper Disc Storage
Place the disc in the center
of the disc case and store the
case and disc upright.
Avoid storing discs in locations
subject to direct sunlight,
close to heating appliances or
in locations of high humidity.
Do not drop discs or subject
them to strong vibrations or
impacts.
Avoid storing discs in locations
where there are large amounts
of dust or moisture.
Handling Precautions
• If the surface is soiled, wipe gently with a soft, damp
(water only) cloth. When wiping discs, always move the
cloth from the center hole toward the outer edge.
• Do not use record cleaning sprays, benzene, thinner,
static electricity prevention liquids or any other solvent.
• Do not touch the surface.
• Do not stick paper or adhesive labels to the disc.
• If the playing surface of a disc is soiled or scratched,
the Player may decide that the disc is incompatible
and eject the disc tray, or it may fail to play the disc
correctly. Wipe any dirt off the playing surface with a
soft cloth.
Cleaning the Pick Up Lens
• Never use commercially available cleaning discs. The
use of these discs can damage the lens.
• Request the nearest service center approved by SHARP
to clean the lens.
Warnings about dew formation
• Condensation may form on pick up lens or disc in the
following conditions:
−
Immediately after a heater has been turned on.
−
In a steamy or very humid room.
−
When the Player is suddenly moved from a cold
environment to a warm one.
When condensation forms:
• It becomes difficult for the Player to read the signals
on the disc and prevents the Player from operating
properly.
To remove condensation:
• Take out the disc and leave the Player with the
power off until the condensation disappears. Using
the Player when there is condensation may cause
malfunction.
