Take special care to provide plenty of ventilation on all sides of this
unit especially when it is placed in an audio rack. If ventilation is
blocked, this unit may overheat and malfunction.
· Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or heating units as this

6. Care
From time to time you should wipe the front and rear panels and
the cabinet with a soft cloth. For heavier dirt, dampen a soft cloth in
a weak solution of mild detergent and water, wring it out dry, and
wipe off the dirt. Following this, dry immediately with a clean cloth.
Do not use rough material, thinners, alcohol or other chemical
solvents or cloths since these could damage the finish or remove
the panel lettering.

Precautions
8. To Obtain a Clear Picture
The DVD Changer is a high technology, precision device. If the
optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn down, the
picture quality becomes poor. To obtain a clear picture, we
recommend regular inspection and maintenance (cleaning or parts
replacement) every 1,000 hours of use depending on the operating
environment. For details, contact your nearest dealer.
9. Notes on Moisture Condensation
Moisture condensation damages the DVD Changer.
Please read the following carefully.
Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you pour a cold
drink into a glass on a warm day. Drops of water form on the outside
of the glass. In the same way, moisture may condense on the optical
pick-up lens inside this unit, one of the most crucial internal parts of
the DVD Changer.
Examples of moisture
condensation
· Moisture condensation occurs in the following cases.
- When you bring the DVD Changer directly from a cold place to a
warm place.
- When you use the DVD Changer in a room where you just turned
on the heater, or a place where the cold wind from the air conditioner
directly hits the unit.
- In summer, when you use the DVD Changer in a hot and humid
place just after you move the unit from an air conditioned room.
- When you use the DVD Changer in a humid place.
· Do not use the DVD Changer when moisture condensation may
occur.
If you use the DVD Changer in such a situation, it may damage
discs and internal parts. Remove the disc, connect the power cord
of the DVD Changer to the wall outlet, turn on the DVD Changer,
and leave it for two or three hours. After a few hours, the DVD
Changer will have warmed up and evaporated any moisture. Keep
the DVD Changer connected to the wall outlet and moisture
condensation will seldom occur.
