recautions
Ensure that the mains supply in your house complies with that indicated on the identification sticker
located at the back of your player. Install your player horizontally, on a suitable base (furniture), with
enough space around it for ventilation (7-10 cm). Make sure the ventilation slots are not covered. Do
not stack other, or heavy devices on top of the player. Do not place the player on amplifiers or other
equipment which may become hot. Before moving the player, ensure the disc tray is empty.
This player is designed for continuous use. Switching off the DVD player to the stand-by mode does
not disconnect the electricity supply. In order to separate the player completely from the mains, it has
to be disconnected by unplugging the mains plug, especially when left unused for a long period of time.
Condensation
If your player or a disc have been stored in a cold atmosphere, as for example during transportation
in the winter, wait for approximately 2 hours until they have reached room temperature.
Protect the player from moisture and excess heat (e.g. fireplace) or equipment creating strong magnetic
or electric fields (i. e. speakers ...). Disconnect the power cable from the mains electricity supply if the
player malfunctions. Your player is not intended for industrial use but for domestic purposes only.
Use of this product is for personal use only. Copying CDs or downloading music files for sale or other
business purposes is or may be a violation of copyright law.

1 - Setting up
Never open the player or any of its components. It can be dangerous for you or for certain fragile
components. You could receive an electric shock or touch the laser beam.
Do not place your eyes close to the opening of the disc tray or any other opening to look inside the
player.
3 - For your safety
Always handle your discs with care. Hold a disc with fingers on the border or hole.
Always place disc with the label facing upward (in case of a single-sided disc).
Always place the disc properly into the tray using the proper guide area.
Always use a soft cloth to clean discs if necessary, wipe from the centre to the border.
Always put discs back into their cases after playing and store in a vertical position.
Never try to play a Photo CD.
Never use record cleaning sprays, benzine, static electricity liquids or any other solvent, if the disc
surface is dirty. Wipe gently with a soft damp (water only) cloth, never wipe the disc in a circular
motion, since circular scratches are likely to occur and could cause noise during playback.
