to directions.
The player
CAUTION! This system operates with a laser. It must be
opened by only a qualified technician.
• Never move the player during playback.
• Never put more than one discs on a tray or put a disc
slipping out of the guide area.
• Discs rotate at high speed inside the player. Do not use
damaged, warped, or cracked discs.
Handling discs
• Do not touch the pick-up lens which is located inside the

the pick-up lens do not leave the compartment door open
for an extended period of time. If the lens becomes dirty,
clean it with a soft brush, or use an air blower brush
designed for camera lenses.

• Do not play your headset at a high volume. Hearing
experts warn against extended high-volume play.
• If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or
discontinue use.
sound and visual quality. Always
keep discs clean by wiping them
gently with a soft cloth from
the inner edge toward the outer perimeter. Never wipe the
disc in a circular motion since circular scratches are likely to
occur and could cause noise during playback.
• If a disc becomes dirty, wet a soft cloth in water, wring it
out well, wipe the dirt away gently, and then remove any
water drops with a dry cloth.
• You should use extreme caution or temporarily
discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.
• Even if your headset is an open-air type designed to let
you hear outside sounds, don’t turn up the volume so high
that you are unable to hear what is around you.
• Do not use record cleaning sprays or antistatic agents on
discs. Also, never clean discs with benzene, thinner, or other
volatile solvents which may cause damage to disc surface
Don’t infringe
This product should only be used for the purposes for
which it is sold, that is, entertainment, violating no copy-
right law. Any attempts to use this product for which it is
not intended is unlawful and therefore not condoned by
Thomson multimedia.
Disc lens care
• When your disc lens gets dirty it can also cause the system
to output poor sound and visual quality. To clean the lens
you will need to purchase a disc lens cleaner which can
maintain the output sound and visual quality of your
system. For instructions on cleaning the disc lens, refer to
the ones accompanying the lens cleaner.
Important battery information
• Remove the batteries to avoid leakage if you do not use
your remote control for more than one month.
• Discard leaky batteries immediately as leaking batteries
may cause skin burns or other personal injuries.
• Dispose of batteries in the proper manner, according to
provincial and local regulations.
• Any battery may leak electrolyte if mixed with a different
battery type, if inserted incorrectly, if all batteries are not
replaced at the same time, if disposed of in fire, or if an
attempt is made to charge a battery not intended to be
recharged.
