Notes on handling
Important cautions
Installation of the unit
Safety precautions
Avoid moisture, water and dust
• Select a place which is level, dry and neither too hot
nor too cold (between 5oC and 35oC, 41oF and 95oF).
• Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.
• Do not use the player in a place subject to vibrations.
Do not place the unit in moist or dusty places.
Avoid high temperatures
Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or place it near
a heating device.
Power cord
When you’re away
When away on travel or otherwise for an extended
period of time, remove the plug from the wall outlet.
• Do not handle the power cord with wet hands!
• A small amount of power is always consumed while
the power cord is connected to the wall outlet.
• When unplugging the player from the wall outlet,
always pull the plug, not the power cord.
*
Do not insert foreign objects into the unit
Do not insert wires, hairpins, coins, etc. into the unit.
* : For power consumption in standby mode, see “Specifications”
on page 48
Do not block the vents
Blocking the vents may damage the unit.
To prevent malfunction of the unit
• There are no user-serviceable parts inside. If anything
goes wrong, unplug the power cord and consult your
dealer.
• Do not insert any metallic object into the unit.
• Do not use any non-standard shape disc available on
the market, because it may damage the unit.
• Do not use a disc with tape, seals, or paste on it,
because damage to the unit may result.
Care of the cabinet
When cleaning the unit, use a soft cloth and follow the
relevant instructions on the use of chemically-coated
cloths. Do not use benzene, thinner or other organic
solvents and disinfectants. These may cause
deformation or discoloring.
If water gets inside the unit
Turn off the power switch and remove the plug from the
wall outlet, then call the store where you made your
purchase. Using the unit in this state may cause a fire or
electrical shock.

About discs
Playable disc types
Playable and non-playable disc types are as follows:
Playable discs
DVD VIDEO
SVCD
Video CD
Audio CD
The DVD VIDEO Logo is a trademark.
• CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded with SVCD, Video CD, Audio CD or MP3 format can be played back, though some may
not be played back because of the disc characteristics or recording condition.
• DVD VIDEO players and DVD discs have their own Region Code numbers. This unit only can play back DVD VIDEO
discs whose Region Code numbers include “1.”
Examples of playable DVD VIDEO discs:

This unit accommodates the NTSC television system and can playback discs recorded with the NTSC system. Note that
the unit cannot playback the disc recorded with the PAL system.
Non-playable discs
DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, DVD AUDIO, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+RW, CD-ROM, PHOTO CD, CD-EXTRA, CD-G, CD-TEXT,
SACD
• Playing back discs listed as “Non-playable discs” above may generate noise and damage speakers.
• This unit can play back audio recorded in CD-G, CD-EXTRA and CD-TEXT discs.
Disc structure
A DVD VIDEO disc is comprised of “titles,” while an Audio CD, Video CD or SVCD is comprised of “tracks”. Each title may
be divided into some “chapters”. For example, if a DVD VIDEO disc contains some movies, each movie may have its own
title number, and each movie may be divided into some chapters. In a DVD VIDEO karaoke disc, each song usually has its
own title number and does not have chapters. In general, each title has independent content, while each chapter in the
same title has continuity.
For the MP3 CD disc structure, see page 35.

MP3 CD playback
This unit can palyback CD discs recorded by the MP3 format
(we refer to those discs as MP3 CD discs in this manual).
Operations for MP3 CD discs are similar to those for
Audio CD discs, though there are some restrictions and
differences.
Unavailable functions
As described earlier, there are some restriction for
playback of MP3 CD discs. Following functions are not
available with MP3 CD discs.
What is MP3?
MP3 is the abbreviation of “MPEG1 Audio Layer 3”.
MPEG Audio is a compression specification that
compresses the audio portion only. This image
compression method is used in DVD or Video CD, etc.
The audio data has been compressed into about 1/10.

This unit can recognize up to 99 Groups and up to 254
Tracks per Group, however, the number of Tracks to be
played back on a disc is limited to 1023.
If a disc includes more than 1023 Tracks, the unit stops
detecting Tracks when the number of detected Tracks
reaches 1023 and ignores the subsequent Tracks. The

unit also ignores any non-MP3 file in the disc.

Care and handling of discs
How to handle discs
When handling a disc, do not touch the surface of the disc. Since discs are made of plastic, they are easily damaged. If a
disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped, the images and sound will not be picked up correctly, and such a disc may
cause the player to malfunction.
Label side
Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesive on its surface.
Storage
Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled on top of one another without their protective cases, they
can be damaged. Do not put discs in a location where they may be exposed to direct sunlight, or in a place where the
humidity or temperature is high. Avoid leaving discs in your car!
Maintenance of discs
If there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc, wipe with a soft dry cloth, moving from the center outwards.
If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a cloth moistened with water. Never use record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any
anti-static agents.
CAUTION
Sometimes during play noise or images may be garbled. This is sometimes due to the disc. (It may not be up to
industry standards.)
These symptoms are caused by the discs, not by the malfunction of the unit.
