Care and safety information
Avoid high temperatures,moisture,water and
dust.
–Do not expose the system,batteries or discs to
humidity,rain,sand or excessive heat (caused by heating
equipment or direct sunlight.) Always keep the disc tray
closed to avoid dust on the lens.
Avoid condensation problem
–The lens may cloud over when the player is suddenly
moved from cold to warm surroundings,making it
impossible to play a disc. Leave the player in the warm
environment until the moisture evaporates.
Do not block the vents
–Do not operate the DVD system in an enclosed
cabinet, allow about 10 cm (4 inches) of free space all
around the player for adequate ventilation.
Care of disc
–To clean a CD,wipe it in a straight line
from the center towards the edge using a soft,
lint-free cloth. A cleaning agent may damage
the disc.
–Write only on the printed side of a
CDR(W) and only with a soft felt-tipped pen.
–Handle the disc by its edge,do not touch the surface.
Care of cabinet
–Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent
solution.Do not use a solution containing alcohol,spirits,
ammonia or abrasives.
Finding a suitable location
–Place the player on a flat, hard,and stable surface.
Step 1: Placing the speakers
and subwoofers
For best possible surround sound, all the speakers (exept
subwoofer) should be placed at the same distance from the
listening position.
1Place the front left and right speakers at equal distances
from theTV and at an angle of approximately 45 degrees
from the listening position.
2Place the centre speaker above theTV or the DVD system
so the centre channel’s sound is localized.
3Place the surround speakers at normal listening ear level
facing each other.
4Place the subwoofer on the floor near theTV.
Notes:
–To avoid magnetic interference,do not position the front
speakers too close to yourTV.
–Allow adequate ventilation around the DVD system.
