Precautions
1. Regional Restriction Codes (Region Number)
Regional restriction codes are built into DVD players and DVD
videos for each sales region. If the regional code of the DVD Player
does not match one of the regional codes on the DVD video,
playback is not possible.
The regional number can be found on the rear panel of the DVD
Player. (e.g. 2 for Region 2)

2. About This Manual
This manual explains the basic procedures for operating the DVD
Player. Some DVD videos do not support the full potential of the
DVD technology. Your DVD Player may therefore not respond to all
operating commands. Refer to instruction notes on discs.
A“
” mark may appear on the TV screen during operation. It
means that the operation is not permitted by the DVD player or the
disc.

3. Warranty Claim
You can find the serial number on the rear panel of the unit. In case
of warranty claim, please report this number.

4. Recording Copyright
Recording of copyrighted material for other than personal use is
illegal without permission of the copyright holder.

5. Power
WARNING
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME, READ
THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.
The voltage of the available power supply differs according to
country or region. Be sure that the power supply voltage of the
area where the unit will be used meets the required voltage (e.g.,
AC100-240V, 50/60Hz) written on the rear panel.

6. Do not touch the unit with wet hands
Do not handle the unit or mains lead when your hands are wet or
damp. If water or any other liquid enters the case, take the unit to
an authorized service center for inspection.

7. Location of the unit
• Place the unit in a well-ventilated location.
Take special care to provide plenty of ventilation on all sides of
the unit especially when it is placed in an audio rack. If ventilation
is blocked, the unit may overheat and malfunction.
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or heating units as the
unit's internal temperature may rise and shorten the life of the
pickup.
• Avoid damp and dusty places and places directly affected by
vibrations from the speakers. In particular, avoid placing the unit
on or above one of the speakers.
• Be sure the unit is placed in a horizontal position. Never place it
on its side or on a slanted surface as it may malfunction.
• When you place the unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the playback
picture may become poor and the sound may be distorted. In
this case, place the unit away from the TV, radio, or VCR.

8. Care
From time to time you should wipe the front and rear panels and
the cabinet with a soft cloth. For heavier dirt, dampen a soft cloth in
a weak solution of mild detergent and water, wring it out dry, and
wipe off the dirt. Following this, dry immediately with a clean cloth.
Do not use rough material, thinners, alcohol or other chemical
solvents or cloths since these could damage the finish or remove
the panel lettering.

9. Notes on Handling
• When shipping the unit, 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 unit.
Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the unit
for a long time. They will leave marks on the finish.
• The top and rear panels of the unit may become warm after a
long period of use. This is not a malfunction.
• When the unit is not in use, be sure to remove the disc and turn
off the power.
• If you do not use the unit for a long period, the unit may not
function properly in the future. Turn on and use the unit
occasionally.

10. To Obtain a Clear Picture
The unit is a high technology, precision device. If the optical pickup 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.

11. Notes on Moisture Condensation
Moisture condensation damages the unit.
Please read the following carefully.
• What is moisture condensation?
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 the unit, one of the most crucial
internal parts of the unit.
• Moisture condensation occurs in the following cases.
– When you bring the unit directly from a cold place to a warm
place.
– When you use the unit 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 unit in a hot and humid place
just after you move the unit from an air conditioned room.
– When you use the unit in a humid place.
• Do not use the unit when moisture condensation may occur.
If you use the unit in such a situation, it may damage discs and
internal parts. Remove the disc, connect the mains lead of the
unit to the mains, turn on the unit, and leave it for two or three
hours. After a few hours, the unit will have warmed up and
evaporated any moisture. Keep the unit connected to the mains
and moisture condensation will seldom occur.

Notes

Notes
• Do not mix new batteries with old batteries or different kinds of
batteries.
• To avoid corrosion, remove the batteries if the remote controller is
not to be used for a long time.
• Remove dead batteries immediately to avoid damage from
corrosion. If the remote controller does not operate smoothly,
replace both batteries at the same time.
• The life of the batteries supplied is about six months but this will
vary depending on usage.

• Place the unit away from strong light such as direct sunlight or
inverted fluorescent light which can prevent proper operation of the
remote controller.
• Using another remote controller of the same type in the same room
or using the unit near equipment which uses infrared rays may
cause operational interference.
• Do not put any object such as a book on the remote controller. The
buttons of the remote controller may be pressed by mistake and
drain the batteries.
• Make sure the audio rack doors do not have colored glass. Placing
the unit behind such doors may prevent proper remote controller
operation.
• If there is any obstacle between the remote controller and the
remote control sensor, the remote controller will not operate.

Tip to obtain a higher quality picture
Occasionally, some picture noise not usually visible during a
normal broadcast may appear on the TV screen while playing a
DVD video because the high resolution pictures on these discs
include a lot of information. While the amount of noise depends
on the TV you use, you should generally adjust the TV to reduce
sharpness when viewing DVD videos.

(You can set this function to Off
using the menu explained in
“Customizing the Function Settings”
starting from page 28. See page 33
for direct information.)
