Precautions

On safety

On operation

• Caution - The optical instruments with

this product will increase eye hazard.

• Should any solid object or liquid fall into

the cabinet, unplug the player and have it

checked by qualified personnel before

operating it any further.

• 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 turned on for about 30 minutes

until the moisture evaporates. If the player

doesn’t operate properly after hours,

please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

• While operating, do not move, shake, or

otherwise allow any shock to the player. It

may cause a malfunction.

Road safety

Do not use headphones/earphones while

driving, cycling, or operating any motorized

vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is

illegal in some areas. It can also be

potentially dangerous to play your headsets

at high volume while walking, especially at

pedestrian crossings. You should exercise

extreme caution or discontinue use in

potentially hazardous situations.

• Use this player in a stable, horizontal

position where it is not subject to

vibration.

On power sources

On adjusting the volume

• Disconnect the DC IN 10V jack first, then

disconnect from the mains, even if the

player itself has been turned off.

• If you are not going to use the player for a

long time, be sure to disconnect the player

from the mains and/or detach the battery

pack. To disconnect the AC power

adapter, grasp the plug itself; never pull

the cord.

Do not turn up the volume while listening to

a portion with very low level inputs or no

audio signals. If you do, the speakers may be

damaged when a peak level portion is

played.

Turn the volume down before you start

playback.

On the rechargeable lithium-ion battery

On placement

Do not place the player in a location where it

is;

• Keep the battery away from fire.

• Keep the battery dry.

• On pedestal or unstable place

• On the rug or carpet

• Do not expose the battery to any

mechanical shock.

• On unleveled surface

• Do not open nor convert the battery.

On cleaning the cabinet

Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a

soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild

detergent solution. Do not use any type of

abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent

such as alcohol or benzine.

• Near a tuner, TV, or VCR.

(Sound noise or picture noise may occur

when another TV, tuner, VCR, or other

electrical appliance is near by. Indoor

aerials may also adversely effect picture

and sound quality. In this case, use an

outdoor aerial instead.)

On cleaning the lens and turn table

IMPORTANT NOTICE

• Do not touch the lens or surrounding area

and be sure to keep the disc cover closed

except when inserting or removing discs

to protect against dust.

• If you accidentally touch the lens with

dirty fingers or if dust on the lens prevents

the player from operating properly, clean

the lens with the KK-DM1 lens cleaning

kit (not supplied).

Caution: The enclosed DVD Player is

capable of holding a still video image or

Menu image on your television screen

indefinitely. If you leave the still video

image or Menu image displayed on your

TV for an extended period of time, you

risk permanent damage to your television

screen. Projection televisions are very

susceptible.

Turn

table

Lens

• If the turn table does not work properly,

check for dust or dirt on the turntable and

clean using a soft cloth.

• Never remove the printed “Warranty void

if removed.” seal attached around the lens.

On transportation

Notes on discs

On handling discs

• To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by

its edge. Do not touch the surface.

• Do not write on or stick paper or tape to

the surface of the disc.

• Do not use a disc with tape, seals, or paste

on it as this may damage the player.

• Use only a disc with a circle shape. Do not

use a disc with any other shape (star type,

heart type, etc.), as this may damage the

player.

On safekeeping

• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight

or heat sources such as hot air ducts, or

leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight

as there can be considerable rise in

temperature inside the car.

• After playing, store the disc in its case.

Piling up discs without cases or leaving

the disc exposed may cause the disc shape

to warp.

On cleaning

• Dirt from a fingerprint or dust causes

picture noise or declining sound quality.

Always keep the disc clean.

• Clean the disc with a cleaning cloth. Wipe

the disc from the center out.

• For dirt, clean the disc with a soft cloth

slightly moistened with water, then

remove the moisture with a soft dry cloth.

• Do not use solvents such as benzine,

thinner, commercially available cleaners,

or antistatic spray intended for vinyl LPs.

Glossary

Chapter

DVD VIDEO

Sections of a picture or a music piece on

a DVD VIDEO that are smaller than

titles. A title is composed of several

chapters. Each chapter is assigned a

chapter number enabling you to locate

the chapter you want.

A DVD recorded with moving pictures.

On a DVD VIDEO, the picture data uses

the MPEG 2 format, one of the

worldwide standards of digital

compression technology. The picture

data is compressed to about 1/40 of its

original size. The DVD also uses the

variable rate coding technology that

changes the data to be allocated

according to the status of the picture.

The audio data is recorded in Dolby

Digital (AC-3) as well as in PCM,

allowing you to enjoy more real audio

presence.

Dolby Digital (AC-3)

Digital audio compression technology

that the Dolby Laboratories

Corporation developed. This

technology conforms to 5.1-channel

surround. When connecting a

component with a built-in Dolby

Digital decoder, you can enjoy more

real audio presence.

Furthermore, various advanced

functions such as the multi-angle,

multilingual, and Parental Control

functions are provided with DVD

VIDEOs.

DVD

A disc that contains up to 8 hours of

moving pictures even though its

diameter is the same as a CD.

MPEG Audio

International standard coding system to

compress audio digital signals

authorized by ISO/IEC. MPEG 1

compatible up to 2-channel stereo.

MPEG 2 used on DVDs compatible up

to 7.1-channel surround. It realises the

backward compatibility – you can play

the MPEG 2 sound track with a player

which conforms to MPEG 1.

The data capacity of a single-layer and

single-sided DVD, at 4.7 GB (Giga

Byte), is 7 times that of a CD.

Furthermore, the data capacity of a

dual-layer and single-sided DVD is 8.5

GB, a single-layer and double-sided

DVD 9.4 GB, and a dual-layer and

double-sided DVD 17 GB.

Multi-angle function

Various angles, or viewpoints of the

video camera, for a scene are recorded

on some DVD VIDEOs.

(continued)

Multilingual function

VIDEO CD

Several languages for the sound or sub-

titles in a picture are recorded on some

DVD VIDEOs.

A compact disc that contains moving

pictures.

The picture data uses the MPEG 1

format, one of the worldwide standards

of digital compression technology. The

picture data is compressed to about 1/

140 of its original size. Consequently, a

12 cm VIDEO CD can contain up to 74

minutes of moving pictures.

Parental Control

A function of the DVD VIDEO for

playback limitation of the disc by the

age of the users according to the

limitation level in each country. The

limitation varies from disc to disc; when

it is activated, playback is completely

prohibited, or violent scenes are

skipped or replaced with other scenes

etc.

VIDEO CDs also contain compact audio

data. Sounds outside the range of

human hearing are compressed while

the sounds we can hear are not

compressed. VIDEO CDs can hold 6

times the audio information of

conventional audio CDs.

Playback Control (PBC)

Signals encoded on VIDEO CDs

(Version 2.0) to control playback.

There are 2 versions of VIDEO CDs.

• Version 1.1: You can play only

moving pictures and sounds.

By using menu screens recorded on

VIDEO CDs with PBC functions, you

can enjoy playing simple interactive

programs, programs with search

functions, and so on.

• Version 2.0: You can play high-

resolution still pictures and enjoy

PBC functions.

This player conforms to both versions.

Title

The longer sections of a picture or a

music piece on a DVD VIDEO; a movie,

etc., or a picture piece on a video

software or an album, etc., or a music

piece on an audio software. Each title is

assigned a title number enabling you to

locate the title you want.

Track

Sections of a picture or a music piece on

a CD or VIDEO CD. Each track is

assigned a track number enabling you

to locate the track you want.
