In cabinet, allow about 2.5cm (1 inch) of free  
space all around the player for adequate  
ventilation.  
Do not expose your player to extreme of  
temperature or humidity.  
If the DVD player is brought directly from a cold  
to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp  
room, moisture may condense on the lens of the  
disc unit inside the DVD player. Should this occur,  
the DVD player would not operate normally.  
Leave the power on for about one hour with no  
disc in the DVD player until normal playback is  
possible.  
The mechanical parts of the set contain self-  
lubricating bearings and must not be oiled or  
lubricated.  
When the DVD player is switched to  
Standby mode, it is still consuming some  
power. To disconnect the system from  
the power supply completely, remove the  
AC power plug from the wall socket.
