Introduction

CAUTION!

WARNING:

Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner,

commercially available cleaners, or anti-static sprays

intended for analog discs. Since the optical unit

(laser) of the DVD system operates at a higher

power than regular DVD or CD players, cleaning

CDs intended for DVD or CD players may damage

the optical unit (laser). Therefore, refrain from using

a cleaning CD.

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!

Never attempt to service this product yourself.

Opening and removing the covers may expose you

to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Failure to

follow this WARNING may result in death or serious

injury. Refer all servicing not speciﬁed in this manual

to a Toshiba Authorized Service Center.

Moisture Condensation

Setup

Moisture condensation damages the DVD player.

Please read the following carefully. 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 this unit, one of the most crucial internal parts

of the DVD player.

Finding a suitable location

-Place the set on a ﬂat, hard and stable surface.

-Do not place the set on a carpet.

-Do not position the set on top of other equipment

that might heat it up (e.g., receiver or ampliﬁer).

-Do not put anything under the set

(e.g.CDs, magazines).

-Install this unit near the AC outlet and where the

AC power plug can be reached easily.

If you use the DVD player in such a situation, it may

damage discs and internal parts. Remove the disc,

connect the power cord of the DVD player to the wall

outlet, turn on the DVD player, and leave it for two or

three hours. After two or three hours, the DVD player

will have warmed up and evaporated any moisture.

Keep the DVD player connected to the wall outlet

and moisture condensation will seldom occur.

Space for ventilation

-Place the apparatus in a location with adequate

ventilation to prevent internal heat build up. Allow at

least 10 cm (4.0'') clearance from the rear and the

top of the set and 5 cm (2.0'') from the left and right

to prevent overheating.

Region Codes

This DVD player is designed to support the Region

Management System. Check the regional code

number on the disc package. If the number does

not match the player' s region number (see table on

page 4), the player may be unable to playback the

disc.

Avoid high temperatures, moisture, water and

dust

-Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or

splashing.

-Do not place any sources of danger on the

apparatus (e.g., liquid ﬁlled objects, lighted candles).

Tips:

-It may not be possible to play CD-R/RW , DVD⁺R/

RW , or DVD⁺R DL in all cases due to the type of

disc or condition of the recording.

-If you are having trouble playing a certain disc,

remove the disc and try a different one. Improperly

formatted disc will not play on this DVD Player.

Cleaning discs

Some problems occur because the disc inside the

system is dirty (frozen picture, sound disruptions,

picture distortions). To avoid these problems, discs

should be cleaned on a regular basis.

To clean a disc, use a micro ﬁbre cleaning cloth

and wipe the disc from the center to the edge in a

straight line. Do not touch the playback side of the

disc.
