The rating plate is located at the rear panel of the unit.

NOTES ON HANDLING:

•

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.

•

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.

•

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.

NOTES ON MOISTURE CONDENSATION:

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 optical pick-up lens inside this unit, one of the most crucial

internal parts of the DVD player. Moisture condensation occurs

during the following cases:

•

When you bring the DVD player directly from a cold place to a

warm place.

•

When you use the DVD player in a room where you just turned on

the heater, or a place where the cold wind 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 moved the unit from an air conditioned room.

•

When you use the DVD player in a humid place. Do not use the

DVD player when moisture condensation may occur.

•

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 “ON” for two or three hours. After two or three hours, the

DVD player will have warmed up and evaporated any moisture.

Keep the DVD player connected to the wall outlet and moisture

condensation will seldom occur.

10. POWER SOURCES

This product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label.

If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local

power company. For products intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the

operating instructions.

11. GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION

This product is equipped with a polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade

wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If

you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail

to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of

the polarized plug.

12. POWER-CORD PROTECTION

Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items

placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles,

and the point where they exit from the appliance.

13. LIGHTNING

To protect your product from a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long

periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will

prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.

14. POWER LINES

An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other

electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing

an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines

or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

15. OVERLOADING

Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

16. OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY

Never push objects of any kind into this product through openings as they may touch dangerous

voltage points or short out parts that could result in fire or electric shock. Never spill or spray any

type of liquid on the product.

17. OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING

If an outside antenna is connected to the product, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as

to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the

National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the

mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge product, size

of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge product, connection to grounding electrodes

and requirements for grounding electrodes.

18. SERVICING

Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to

dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

19. REPLACEMENT PARTS

When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses replacement parts

specified by the manufacturer or those that have the same characteristics as the original part.

Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.

20. SAFETY CHECK

Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product, ask the service technician to perform

safety checks to determine that the product is in proper operating condition.

21. WALL OR CEILING MOUNTING

The product should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.

22. DAMAGE REQUIRING SERVICE

Unplug the product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the

following conditions:

a. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.

b. If liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the product.

c.

If the product has been exposed to rain or water.

d. If the product does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those

controls that are covered by the operating instructions, as an adjustment of other controls may

result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the

product to its normal operation.

e. If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.

f.

When the product exhibits a distinct change in performance-this

indicates a need for service.

23. HEAT

The product should be situated away from heat sources

such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other

products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

24. NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system

installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC

that provides guidelines for proper grounding and,

in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall

be connected to the grounding system of the building,

as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
