Cautions on use
Moving the player
If you need to move this unit, first remove the disc
if there's one loaded, and close the disc tray. Next,
press ^ STANDBY/ON to switch the power to
standby, checking that the POWER OFF indication
on the front panel display goes off. Wait at least 10
seconds. Lastly, disconnect the power cord.
Never lift or move the unit during playback — discs
rotate at a high speed and may be damaged.
Place of installation
Select a stable place near the TV and AV system to
which the unit is connected.
Do not place the player on top of a TV or color
monitor. Keep it away from cassette decks or
other components easily affected by magnetism.
Avoid the following types of places:
• Places exposed to direct sunlight
• Humid or poorly ventilated places
• Extremely hot or cold places
• Places subject to vibration
• Places in which there is much dust or cigarette
smoke
• Places exposed to soot, steam or heat (in
kitchens, etc.)
❖ Do not place objects on top
Do not place objects on top of the player.
❖ Do not obstruct the ventilation
holes
Do not use the player on a shaggy rug, bed, or
sofa, and do not cover the player with a cloth, etc.
Doing so will prevent heat dissipation and could
lead to damage.
❖ Keep away from heat
Do not place the player on top of an amplifier or
other device generating heat. When installing in a
rack, to avoid the heat generated by the amplifier
and other devices, place it on a shelf below the
amplifier whenever possible.
Turn the power off when
not using the player
Depending on the conditions of the TV broadcast
signals, striped patterns may appear on the screen
when the TV is turned on while the player's power
is turned on. This is not a malfunction with the
player or TV. If this happens, turn the player's
power off. In the same way, noise may be heard in
the sound of a radio.
Condensation
If the player is moved suddenly from a cold place
into a warm room (in winter, for example) or if the
temperature in the room in which the player is
installed rises suddenly due to a heater, etc., water
droplets (condensation) may form inside (on
operating parts and the lens). When condensation
is present, the player will not operate properly and
playback is not possible. Let the player stand at
room temperature for 1 or 2 hours with the power
turned on (the time depends on the extent of
condensation). The water droplets will dissipate
and playback will become possible.
Condensation can also occur in the summer if the
player is exposed to the direct wind from an air-
conditioner. If this happens, move the player to a
different place.
Cleaning the player
Normally, wipe the player with a soft cloth. For
tough dirt, apply some neutral detergent diluted in
5 to 6 parts water to a soft cloth, wring out
thoroughly, wipe off the dirt, then wipe again with
a dry cloth.
Note that getting alcohol, thinner, benzene or
insecticide on the player could cause the print and
coating to peel off. Also, avoid leaving rubber or
vinyl products in contact with the player for long
periods of time, as this could damage the cabinet.
When using chemical-impregnated wipes, etc.,
read the wipe's cautions carefully.
Unplug the power cord from the power outlet
when cleaning the player.
Caution for when the unit is
installed in a rack with a
glass door
Do not press the ; OPEN/CLOSE on the remote
control to open the disc tray while the glass door
is closed. The door will hamper the movement of
the disc tray, and the unit could be damaged.
