Notes on handling  
Important cautions  
Installation of the unit  
Safety precautions  
Avoid moisture, water and dust  
Select a place which is level, dry and neither too hot  
nor too cold (between 5oC and 35oC, 41oF and 95oF).  
Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.  
Do not use the player in a place subject to vibrations.  
Do not place the unit in moist or dusty places.  
Avoid high temperatures  
Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or place it near  
a heating device.  
Power cord  
When you’re away  
When away on travel or otherwise for an extended  
period of time, remove the plug from the wall outlet.  
Do not handle the power cord with wet hands!  
A small amount of power (3.1 W) is always consumed  
while the power cord is connected to the wall outlet.  
When unplugging the player from the wall outlet,  
always pull the plug, not the power cord.  
Do not insert foreign objects into the unit  
Do not insert wires, hairpins, coins, etc. into the unit.  
To prevent malfunction of the unit

There are no user-serviceable parts inside. If anything  
goes wrong, unplug the power cord and consult your  
dealer.  
Care of the cabinet  
Do not insert any metallic object into the unit.  
Do not use any non-standard shape disc available on  
the market, because it may damage the unit.  
Do not use a disc with tape, seals, or paste on it,  
because damage to the unit may result.  
When cleaning the unit, use a soft cloth and follow the  
relevant instructions on the use of chemically-coated  
cloths. Do not use benzene, thinner or other organic  
solvents and disinfectants. These may cause  
deformation or discoloring.  
Note about copyright laws  
If water gets inside the unit  
Please check the copyright laws in your country before  
recording from DVD VIDEO, Audio CD, and Video CD  
discs. Recording of copyrighted material may infringe  
copyright laws.

wall outlet, then call the store where you made your  
purchase. Using the unit in this state may cause a fire or  
electrical shock.

The DVD VIDEO disc is protected by the copyguard  
system. When you connect the unit to your VCR  
directly, the copyguard system activates and the  
picture may not be played back correctly.

To connect to audio equipment with a digital input  
You can enhance the sound quality by connecting either of the unit's DIGITAL OUT jacks (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) to the  
digital input of an amplifier, MD, etc. by using an optional digital cable. The digital audio signal from a disc is directly  
transferred. If you connect the unit to a Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG Multichannel decoder or an amplifier with a built-in  
decoder by using an optional digital cable, you can enjoy high-quality surround sound.  
When you make the digital connection, we recommend also to make the analog connection, because, depending on  
discs, no signal may be output from the DIGITAL OUT.  
When using the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL)  
jack, remove the protection cap. Do not  
lose the removed cap. When the DIGITAL

NOTES  
The unit does not provide the DTS decoding function.  
When playing a DVD VIDEO or Audio CD disc with DTS,  
use a DTS decoder to get correct signals from your  
speakers. Never use the unit's analog output jacks,  
which output incorrect signals that may damage your  
speakers.  
If you connect the analog outputs and digital outputs  
simultaneously, be sure to select the source of the  
amplifier correctly, or set the level control of the  
amplifier connected to the analog outputs to minimum.

Care and handling of discs  
How to handle discs  
When handling a disc, do not touch the surface of the disc. Since discs are made of plastic, they are easily damaged. If a  
disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped, the images and sound will not be picked up correctly, and such a disc may  
cause the player to malfunction.  
Label side  
Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesive on its surface.  
Storage  
Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled on top of one another without their protective cases, they  
can be damaged. Do not put discs in a location where they may be exposed to direct sunlight, or in a place where the  
humidity or temperature is high. Avoid leaving discs in your car!  
Maintenance of discs  
If there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc,  
wipe with a soft dry cloth, moving from the center outwards.  
If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a cloth moistened with water.  
Never use record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any anti-static agents.  
CAUTION  
Sometimes during play noise or images may be garbled. This is sometimes due to the disc. (It may not be up to  
industry standards.)  
These symptoms are caused by the discs, not by the malfunction of the unit.
