HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

DEW CONDENSATION

If

this

player

is carried

into

a

heated

room

from

outside

during

the

winter,

or

if

the

temperature

of

the

room

where

the

player

is loca-

ted

is rapidly increased

by

a heater,

etc.,

the

lens or

the

operation

section

becomes

covered

with

dew.

When

this

occurs,

signal read

out

playback

cannot

be

performed

by

the

laser beam.

Depending on

the

degree

of

dew

condensation,

leave

it

for

1-2

hours

at

room

temperature

to

eliminate

dew

condensation

and

allow

playback

to

be

performed.

Also,

increase

the

room

temperature

gradually

during

winter

so

that

dew

condensation

does

not

occur,

then

turn

the

power

on.

Dew

condensation

sometimes

occurs

during

summer

when

air

from

an air

conditioner

hits

this

player.

If

this

occurs,

change

TRANSPORTATION

Precautions

should

be

taken

when

this

player

is

transported

so

that

no

vibration

or

impacts

are applied or

that

it

is

not

dropped.

Keep

heat

or

or

the

player might be damaged.

~--

Items With Specific Precautions

--~

Do

not move the player during playback.

Since

the

disc

rotates

at

high

speed

during

playback,

the

disc

will

be

scratched

if

the

player

is

lifted

or

moved

during

play-

back.

When

the

player is

moved,

stop

playback

and

remove

the

disc

first.

Also,

when

the

player

is carried,

the

disc

should

be

removed

first.

LASERDISCS

LaserDiscs are available

as

both

active

play/standard play (CAV)

Active

play/standard

play discs are played

at

constant

angular

velocity

(CAV).

Still-frame

and

other

forms

of

trick

playback are

possible

with

these discs.

ILONG PLAY/EXTENDED

PLA

y (CLV) DISCS I

Long

play/extended

play discs are played back

at

constant

linear

velocity

(CLV), and are

therefore

able

to

play

for

a longer length

of

time

than

CAV

discs. CLV discs

cannot

be used

for

trick

play-

but

random access and repeat playback etc. are possible.

LASERDISCS

After

using discs, store

them

vertically upright

After

playing

a

disc,

always

remove

it

from

the

player

and

return

it

to

its

jacket.

Then

store

it

standing

vertically

upright

away

from

heat

and

humidity.

•

Take

care

when

storing

discs.

If

you

store

discs

at

an angle,

or

stacked

on

of

each

other,

discs

may

become

warped

even

when

in

their

jackets.

•

Do

not

leave

discs

in

locations

such

as

the

seat

of

which

may

become

unbelievable

hot.

If

a

disc

becomes

warped,

put

the

disc

into

and

then

place

it

between

flat

plates
