GENERAL INFORMATION
Please familiarise yourself with these installation and operating instructions prior to using
the portable DVD player for the first time. Read and adhere closely to following safety
information. Non-compliance with the safety information can cause personal injury and/or
damage to the player and will nullify any guarantee claims!
Keep these operating instructions in a safe place for later reference.
Safety information
DANGER! There are dangerous electrical voltages present within the player! Do
not open the casing under any circumstances! Contact a
qualified specialist workshop for any necessary repairs!
The player is to be safeguarded from moisture! Use a soft,
dry cloth for cleaning the casing surfaces!
When setting up the player, make sure there is enough space is
available for air to circulate around it! The player should not be
operated directly adjacent to heat sources!
ATTENTION! Connect the player to the power supply using only the
connecting cable supplied! Make sure that the cable is not
damaged and that the plugs are seated firmly!
Ensure that the supply voltage corresponds to the
operating voltage of the player. The operating voltage is stated
on the mains voltage adapter.
Isolate the player from the power supply during thunderstorms
or longer periods of absence!
Replace the batteries only with identical or equivalent items!
CLASS 1
LASER PRODUCT This equipment contains a laser unit in the DVD drive. The laser unit is
designed in such a way that no health hazards arise when used
correctly.
Do not open the laser unit under any circumstances!
Laser radiation can cause permanent damage to the eyesight!

Precautions to be taken when using the portable DVD player
DANGER! Only use the player in the car on the mount provided. The player
may only be installed and operated in vehicles in such a way that the
driver is not distracted.
Should smoke or odour possibly accompanied by unusual operating noises
develop, switch the player off immediately and isolate it from the voltage supply. Do not
continue using the player!
Avoid abrupt, jerky movements to the player during disc playback. The discs
could otherwise become damaged.
Advice on handling the discs
The player will play single or double-sided DVD video discs as well as standard compact
discs (12 cm diameter discs). Discs with special formats or 8 cm diameter CDs are not
suitable for playback.
Clean soiled discs carefully using first a damp, then a dry cloth. Changes in ambient
temperature can cause condensation to form on the disc. Dry the disc before use with a
soft cloth.
Avoid touching, writing on or damaging the reverse side of a disc or both sides in the case
of double-sided discs. Do not expose the discs to direct sunlight, dust or strong heat.
Defective discs can damage the DVD player and may therefore not be used!
