4  DO NOT BLOCK VENTILATION 
HOLES
 
Ventilation openings in the cabinet release heat 
generated during operation. If blocked, heat 
build-up may result in a fire hazard or heat 
damage to discs.
 For 
your 
protection:
a.  Never cover ventilation slots while unit is 
ON, or operate unit while placed on a bed, 
sofa, rug, or other soft surface.
b.  Avoid built-in installation, such as a book 
case or rack, unless properly ventilated.
5  AVOID EXTREMELY HOT LOCATIONS 
OR SUDDEN TEMPERATURE 
CHANGES
 
Do not place unit over or near a heater or 
radiator, in direct sunlight, inside closed 
ve hi cles, in high temperature locations [over 
95 °F (35 °C)], or in over 75 % humidity. If unit 
is suddenly moved from a cold place to a warm 
one, moisture may con dense in unit and on the 
disc causing dam age. Never sub ject unit to 
vibration, im pact, or place it so that the sur face 
is tilted as in ter nal parts may be se ri ous ly 
dam aged.
6  TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY
• Never place unit on support or stand that is 
not firm, level, and adequately strong. The 
unit could fall causing serious injury to a child 
or adult and damage to the unit.
• Move any appliance and cart 
combination with care. Quick 
stops, excessive force, and 
uneven surfaces may cause 
objects to overturn.
• Carefully follow all operating 
instructions.

THE MANUAL AND ON THE PRODUCT.
INSTALLATION
1  POWER SOURCE CAUTION
 
Operate only from power source indicated on 
unit or in this manual. If uncertain, have your 
Electric Utility Service Company or Video 
Products Dealer verify your home power

2  POWER CORD PLUG
 
For safety, this unit has a polarized type plug 
(one wide blade), or a three-wire grounding 
type plug. Always hold the plug firmly and 
make sure your hands are dry when plugging 
in or unplugging the AC power cord. Regularly 
remove dust, dirt, etc. on the plug.
POLARIZED PLUG CAUTION:
 
The plug fits into outlet only one way. If it 
cannot be fully inserted, try reversing it. If it still 
will not fit, have an electrician install the proper 
wall outlet. Do not tamper with the plug.
GROUNDING PLUG CAUTION:
 
The plug requires a three-hole grounding 
outlet. If necessary, have an electrician install 
the proper outlet. Do not tamper with the plug.
3  POWER CORD
 
To avoid unit malfunction, and to protect 
against electrical shock, fire or personal injury:

appliances and walking traffic. Do not rest 
heavy objects on, or roll such objects over the 
power cord.
- Do not tamper with the cord in any way.
- An extension cord should have the same type 
plug (polarized or grounding) and must be 
securely connected.
- Overloaded wall outlets or extension cords 
are fire hazards.
- Frayed cords, damaged plugs, and damaged 
or cracked wire insulation are hazardous and 
should be replaced by a qualified electrician.
