Precautions (Cont’d)

Introductions
Moisture condensation damages the DVD player. Please read the fol-
lowing 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 move 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 con-
nected to the wall outlet and moisture condensation will seldom occur.
