On placement
• Do not place the player in a confined
space such as a bookshelf or similar unit.
• Do not cover the ventilation of the player
with newspapers, tablecloths, curtains,
etc. And do not place the player on a soft
surface, such as a rug.
• Do not place the player and adaptors in a
location near heat sources, or in a place
subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust,
sand, moisture, rain, or mechanical
shock, or in a car with its windows
closed.
• Do not place the player in an inclined
position. It is designed to be operated in
a horizontal position only.
• Keep the player and discs away from
equipment with strong magnet, such as
microwave ovens, or large loudspeakers.
• Do not drop or apply strong shock.
Do not place heavy objects on the player
and accessories.
On operation
• If the player is brought directly from a
cold to a warm location, or is placed in a
very damp room, moisture may condense
on the lenses inside the player. Should
this occur, the player may not operate
properly. In this case, remove the disc
and leave the player for about half an
hour until the moisture evaporates. Wipe
off moisture attached to the LCD surface
with tissue etc. Turn on the power again
later.
• Keep the lens on the player clean and do
not touch it. Touching the lens may
damage the lens and cause the player to
malfunction. Leave the disc lid closed
except when you insert or remove discs.
• Turn off the power before disconnecting
the AC power adaptor, the car battery
adaptor. Failure to do so may cause a
malfunction.
On Liquid Crystal Display
• Although manufactured with high
precision technology, the LCD may
occasionally display dots of various
colours. That is not a malfunction.
• Do not place or drop any object onto the
LCD surface. Also, do not apply pressure
from hands or elbows.
• Do not damage the LCD surface with a
sharp edged tool.
On rechargeable battery
• Certain countries may regulate disposal
of the battery used to power this product.
Please consult with your local authority.
• Because of the battery's limited life, its
capacity gradually deteriorates over time
and repeated use. Exchange a new one
when the battery holds about only half
the normal period.
• The battery may not be charged to its
fullest capacity when charged for the first
time, or when it has not been used for a
long time. The capacity recovers after
being charged and discharged several
times.
On AC power adaptor and car battery
adaptor
• Use the supplied adaptors for the player,
as other adaptors may cause a
malfunction.
• Do not disassemble or reverse-engineer.
• Do not touch the metal parts, as it may
cause a short and damage the adaptors,
especially if touched by other metal
objects.
