Safety Precautions for the Burner  
Cleaning Procedure  
Be sure to observe the following precautions. Failing to  
do so may result in electric shock, fire, injury, or  
malfunction.  
IMPORTANT:  
Be sure to unplug the burner before beginning  
cleaning.  
Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.  
Ensure that no moisture or liquid comes into contact  
with the drive during cleaning.  
Do not disassemble, dismantle, or modify the  
equipment. Requests for repair and inspection should  
be made to the dealer.  
Do not insert metal or combustible objects or pour  
water or other liquids inside the burner.  
Exterior of the Burner:

EN  
FR  
ES  
Turn off the power when connecting equipment.  
Remove the plug when the burner will not be used for  
a prolonged time or prior to cleaning (electricity flows  
through the equipment even when the power is off).  
Do not block the ventilation holes of the burner.  
Do not use where there is condensation. Suddenly  
carrying the burner from a cold location to a hot  
location may result in the formation of drops, which  
may cause a malfunction or failure.  
Disc Tray:  
Wipe off dirt with a soft dry  
cloth.  
Do not touch the lens.  
To clean the lens, use  
Lens  
commercially available lens  
cleaning blower for cameras.

Do not cause the burner to vibrate when discs are in.  
Safety Precautions for Accessories  
Disc:  
When using the AC adapter, the power cord, and the  
USB cable, be sure to observe the following  
precautions. Failing to do so may result in electric  
shock, fire, injury, or malfunction.  
Gently wipe from the inner edge to the outer edge with  
a soft cloth.  
Storage:  
Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are  
piled on top of one another without their protective  
cases, they can be damaged. Do not put discs in a  
location where they may be exposed to direct sunlight,  
or in a place where the humidity or temperature is high.  
Avoid leaving discs in your car!  
Do not insert or remove the plug when your hands  
are wet.  
Fully insert the plug into the outlet.  
Keep dust and metal objects away from the plug.  
Do not damage the cord.  
Place the cord where it will not trip someone up.  
Do not use when thunder can be heard.  
Do not dismantle.  
Region Codes  
Do not use for any product other than this one.  
Do not play the provided CD-ROM with an audio  
player. Doing so may damage the circuits or speakers.  
Region codes are numbers for restricting DVD video  
playback. The world is separated into six regions and  
each region is identified by a number. If the number for  
a disc does not match the number for the player, the  
disc cannot be played on the player.  
Safety Precautions for Discs  
Do not use the following discs.  
Cracked discs  
Changing the region codes  
Deeply scratched discs  
You can change the region code to play a DVD that  
has a different code. (The code cannot be changed for  
some playback software.) When you insert the disc,  
the Caution screen appears on the PC. Follow the on-  
screen instructions to change the code.  
Installation  
Do not install in any of the following locations.  
Humid location  
Location of 60 °C or above  
Location subject to direct sunlight  
Location where overheating is likely  
Dusty or smoky locations  
Locations subject to oily smoke or steam such as a  
kitchen counter or beside a humidifier
