Important Safety Instructions
1. Read Instructions ­ All the safety and operating instructions
should be read before the appliance is operated.
2. Retain Instructions ­ The safety and operating instructions
should be retained for future reference.
3. Heed Warnings ­ All warnings on the appliance and in the
operating instructions should be adhered to.
4. Follow Instructions ­ All operating and use instructions
should be followed.
5. Water and Moisture ­ Do not use the appliance near water
­for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laun-
dry tub; in a wet basement; or near a swimming pool; and the
like.
6. Cleaning ­ Unplug the appliance from the wall outlet before
cleaning. The appliance should be cleaned with a dry cloth or
only as recommended by the manufacturer.
7. Ventilation ­ Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided
for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the appliance
and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not
be blocked or covered. Do not use the appliance on a bed, sofa,
rug, or other such surface. Newspapers, table clothes, curtains,
and other items can inadvertently block ventilation slots. Do
not place the unit near curtains that could obstruct the ventila-
tion. If you install the appliance in a built-in installation, such
as a bookcase or rack, ensure that there is adequate ventilation.
Leave 20 cm (8") of free space at the top and sides and 10 cm
(4") at the rear. The rear edge of the shelf or board above the
appliance should be set 10 cm (4") away from the rear panel or
wall, creating a flue-like gap for warm air to escape.
8. Heat ­ The appliance should be situated away from heat
sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appli-
ances (including amplifier) that produce heat.
9. Grounding or Polarization ­ The appliance may be equipped
with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having
one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the
power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the
plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician
to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety pur-
pose of the polarized or grounding-type plug.
A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding
prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your
safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult
an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10. Power-Cord Protection ­ Power-supply cords should be
routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by
items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention
to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where
they exit from the appliance.
11. Attachments ­ Do not use attachments not recommended by
the appliance manufacturer as they may cause hazards.
Accessories ­ Do not place the appliance on an unstable cart,
stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The appliance may fall, causing
serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the
appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the appliance.
Any mounting of the appliance
should follow the manufacturer's
instructions,
and
should
use
a
mounting accessory recommended
by the manufacturer.
12. An appliance and cart combination
should be moved with care to avoid
injury from tip-over.
Quick stops, excessive force, and
uneven surfaces may cause the
appliance and cart combination to
overturn.
13. Lightning ­ For added protection for the appliance during a
lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for
long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and discon-
nect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to
the appliance due to lightning and power-line surges.
14. Servicing ­ Do not attempt to service the appliance yourself as
opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous volt-
age or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel.
Damage Requiring Service ­ Unplug the appliance from the
wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel
under the following conditions:
A. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged,
B. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the
appliance,
C. If the appliance has been exposed to rain or water,
D. If the appliance does not operate normally by following the
operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are
covered by the operating instructions as an improper
adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will
often require extensive work by a qualified technician to
restore the appliance to its normal operation,
E. If the appliance has been dropped or damaged in any way,
and
F. When the appliance exhibits a distinct change in perfor-
mance ­ this indicates a need for service.
15. Object and Liquid Entry ­ Never push objects of any kind
into the appliance through openings as they may touch danger-
ous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or
electric shock.
The appliance should not be exposed to dripping or splashing
and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases should be
placed on the appliance.
Don't put candles or other burning objects on top of this unit.
16. Batteries ­ Always consider the environmental issues and fol-
low local regulations when disposing of batteries.

Precautions--Continued
1. Region Numbers
The DVD standard uses region numbers to control how discs can
be played around the world, the world being divided into six
regions. This unit will only play DVD discs that match its region
number, which can be found on its rear panel (e.g.,
).
2. About this Manual
This manual explains how to use all of this unit's functions.
Although the DVD standard offers many special features, not all
discs use them all, so depending on the disc being played, this
unit may not respond to certain functions. See the disc's sleeve
notes for supported features.
When you attempt to use a DVD feature that is not
available, this logo may appear onscreen, indicating
that the feature is not supported by the current disc or
this unit.

sound quality may be affected. If this occurs, move this unit
away from the TV, radio, or VCR.
7. Care
Occasionally, you should dust this unit all over with a soft cloth.
For stubborn stains, use a soft cloth dampened with a weak solu-
tion of mild detergent and water. Dry the unit immediately after-
wards with a clean cloth. Do not use abrasive cloths, thinners,
alcohol, or other chemical solvents, because they may damage
the finish or remove the panel lettering.
8. Handling Notes
· If you need to transport this unit, use the original packaging to
pack it how it was when you originally bought it.
· Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect sprays, near this
unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic items on this unit for a long
time, because they may leave marks on the case.
· This unit's top and rear panels may get warm after prolonged
use. This is normal.
· When you've finished using this unit, remove all discs and
turn off the power.
· If you do not use this unit for a long time, it may not work
properly the next time you turn it on, so be sure to use it occa-
sionally.
9. To Obtain a Clear Picture
This unit is a high-tech, precision device. If the lens on the opti-
cal pickup, or the disc drive mechanism becomes dirty or worn,
the picture quality may be affected. To maintain the best picture
quality, we recommend regular inspection and maintenance
(cleaning or worn part replacement) every 1,000 hours of use
depending on the operating environment. Contact your Integra/
Onkyo dealer for details.
10. Moisture Condensation
Moisture condensation may damage this unit.
Read the following carefully:
When you take a glass containing a cold drink outside on a sum-
mer's day, drops of water, called condensation, form on the out-
side of the glass. Similarly, moisture may condense on the lens
of the optical pickup, one of the most important parts inside this
unit.
· Moisture condensation can occur in the following situations:
-- The unit is moved from a cold place to a warm place.
-- A heater is turned on, or cold air from an air conditioner is
hitting the unit.
-- In the summer, when this unit is moved from an air condi-
tioned room to a hot and humid place.
-- The unit is used in a humid place.
· Do not use this unit when there's the possibility of moisture
condensation occurring. Doing so may damage your discs and
certain parts inside this unit.
If condensation does occur, remove all discs and leave this
unit turned on for two to three hours. By this time, the unit will
have warmed up and any condensation will have evaporated.
To reduce the risk of condensation, keep this unit connected to
a wall outlet.
