However, for convenience, this instruction manual explains operation using the remote control. Note: This handling description is printed prior to product development. When a part of the product specification must be changed to improve operability or other functions, priority is given to the product specification itself. In such instances, the instruction manual may not entirely match all the functions of the actual product. Therefore, the actual product and packaging, as well as the name and illustration, may differ from the manual. -E2- SAFETY CERTIFICATION This unit is made and tested to meet exacting safety standards. It meets UL and FCC requirements and complies with safety performance standards of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. CAUTION - USE OF CONTROLS OR ADJUSTMENTS OR PERFORMANCE OF PROCEDURES OTHER THAN THOSE SPECIFIED HEREIN MAY RESULT IN HAZARDOUS RADIATION EXPOSURE. THIS UNIT SHOULD NOT BE ADJUSTED OR REPAIRED BY ANYONE EXCEPT PROPERLY QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL. FCC INFORMATION This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. CAUTION: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: · Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. · Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. · Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. · Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. FOR SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERATION · · · Do not damage the power cord. When not in use, disconnect the power cord from the outlet. Grasp the plug, not the cord, when disconnecting the unit. If water should enter the unit, electrical shock or a malfunction may result. Use in an area where there is low humidity and little dust. Do not disassemble or alter the unit in any way. Do not use the unit in areas where extremes in temperature occur (below 40°F (5°C) or exceeding 95°F (35°C)), or where it may be exposed to direct sunlight. Because of the DVD video player's extremely low noise and wide dynamic range, there is a tendency to set the volume on the amplifier higher than necessary. Doing so may produce an excessively high output from the amplifier which can cause damage to your speakers. Please be careful in this regard. Sudden changes in the surrounding temperature can cause dew to form on the optical pickup lens inside the unit. Under this condition the unit may be unable to operate properly. If this should occur, remove the disc and allow the unit to adjust to the surrounding temperature. · When carrying the unit, be sure to remove a disc which may be inside and turn the power off. Then unplug the power cord from the AC outlet after 10 seconds. Carrying the unit with a disc inside may damage the disc and/or the unit. The unit is automatically set to the Screen Saver mode after approximately 5 minutes have elapsed under the stop or pause mode. · · · · · CAUTION: The sub-woofer (powered speaker) and the rear speaker (powered speaker) must be placed in a well ventilated area. Do not place any object on the top of these units. Do not block ventilation holes. The cabinet of these units warms up when it is used for a long time, but it is not a malfunction. -E3- WARNING FOR TRANSMITTER Important Information! 1. Explicitly specify to all users the technical instructions and the scope of use defined in the related documents and provide the explanation about all the control methods, adjusting procedures and usage of switches. 2. Do not change the emitter frequency nor boost the emitter power (including the power of excess load wireless frequency power amplifier). Do not put up an external antenna nor use any other remodeled antenna. 3. In use of this unit, avoid any act which interferes with legal wireless communication services. Should any interference arise, immediately stop using this unit, remove the interference, and avoid such an act in the future. 4. When micro-power wireless equipment is used, avoid interference with wireless communication services or emissive interference from industrial, scientific and medical treatment equipment. 5. Do not use this unit in an aircraft or near an airport. In-plant radio stations, and special low-power radio stations for movable body identification used for production lines and amateur radio stations as well as industrial, scientific and medical equipment (such as microwave ovens) use the same frequency band used by this unit. 1. Before using this unit, make sure that no in-plant radio stations or special low-power radio stations for movable body identification or amateur radio stations are operated nearby. 2. If this unit should adversely radio-interfere with an in-plant radio station for movable body identification, immediately change the frequency band used by this unit or stop emitting electric waves and consult the your dealer or SANYO service center about measures for avoiding interference (for example, installation of a partition). 3. If any trouble occurs such as this unit causing adverse radio interference with special low-power radio stations for movable body identification or an amateur radio station, contact your SANYO dealer or SANYO service center. Warning for using the sub-woofer with a builtin transmitter · Keep the sub-woofer (powered speaker) at least 8 feet away from all heart pacemakers! The radio waves may disrupt the operation of the pacemaker. · Do not operate this unit in medical Institutions, hospitals or near medical equipment! The radio waves may cause nearby equipment to operate incorrectly or fail. Forbidden · When other equipment or a medical apparatus operates incorrectly or fails to operate due to radio wave interference, stop using this unit! The radio waves may cause nearby equipment to operate incorrectly or fail. Forbidden -E4- CONTROLS Main unit (DVD Receiver) Sub-woofer (Powered speaker) 12 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 1.
