Precautions  
Notes on handling  
Notes on Moisture Condensation  
When shipping the DVD player, always use the  
original shipping carton and packing materials.  
For maximum protection, repack the unit as it was  
originally packed at the factory.  
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near  
the DVD player. Do not leave rubber or plastic  
products in contact with the DVD player for a long  
time. They will leave marks on the finish.  
Moisture condensation damages the DVD player.  
Please read the following carefully.  
Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when  
you pour a cold drink into a glass on a warm day.  
Drops of water form on the outside of the glass. In  
the same way, moisture may condense on the opti-  
cal pick-up lens inside this unit, one of the most cru-  
cial internal parts of the DVD player.  
The top and rear panels of the DVD player may  
become warm after a long period of use. This is  
normal and not a malfunction.  
n
When the DVD player is not in use, be sure to  
remove the disc and turn off the power.  
If you do not use the DVD player for a long period, the  
unit may not function properly in the future. Turn on  
and use the DVD player occasionally.  
Moisture condensation occurs during the following  
cases.  
When you bring the DVD player directly from a cold  
place to a warm place.  
Notes on Locating  
When you use the DVD player in a room where you  
just turned on the heater, or a place where the cold  
air from the air conditioner directly hits the unit.  
In summer, when you use the DVD player in a hot  
and humid place just after you move the unit from  
an air conditioned room.  
When you place this DVD player near a TV, radio, or  
VCR, the playback picture may become poor and the  
sound may be distorted. In this case, move the DVD  
player away from the TV, radio, or VCR.  
When you use the DVD player in a humid place.  
Notes on Cleaning  
Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.  
For stubborn dirt, soak the cloth in a weak detergent  
solution, wring well and wipe. Use a dry cloth to wipe  
it dry. Do not use any type of solvent, such as thinner  
and benzine, as they may damage the surface of the  
DVD player.  
Do not use the DVD player when moisture con-  
densation may occur.  
If you use a chemical saturated cloth to clean the  
If you use the DVD player in such a situation, it may  
damage discs and internal parts. Remove the disc,  
connect the power cord of the DVD player to the wall  
outlet, turn on the DVD player and leave it ONfor

unit, follow that products instructions.  
Warning: Cleaning and adjustment of lenses  
and/or other components of playback mechanism  
should be performed by a qualified service  
technician.  
To Obtain a Clear Picture  
The DVD player is a high technology, precision device. If  
the optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or  
worn down, the picture quality becomes poor. To obtain  
a clear picture, we recommend regular inspection and  
maintenance (cleaning or parts replacement) every  
1,000 hours of use depending on the operating  
environment. For details, contact your nearest dealer.

About DRC (Dynamic Range Compression)  
With the DVD format you have the opportunity to listen to  
programs soundtrack in the most accurate and realistic  
presentation possible, thanks to the use of digital audio  
technology. However, in certain instances you may wish to  
slightly compress the dynamic range of the audio output  
(the difference between the loudest sounds and the  
quietest ones) so that you may listen to a movie at a lower  
volume and still retain dialogue intelligibility.  
Notes  
The DRC function works only during playback of Dolby Digital  
recorded discs.  
The level of Dynamic Range Compression may vary depending  
on the DVD disc.  
When playing karaoke, connect appropriate audio equipment  
(such as an amplifier) to the DVD video player.
