Power Source
The player should be operated only from a 220-240 V, 50 Hz outlet. Please do not open the cover by yourself. There is 

high voltage in the player, which will endanger your life. Please contact a local service agent for help and advice. Repairs 

are to be carried out by a qualified technician only.
•

 The player is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if 

the player itself has been turned off.

•

 If you are not going to use the player for a long time, be sure to disconnect the player from the wall outlet. 

Power Cord
Do not place the player, a piece of furniture, etc., on the power cord (mains lead), or pinch the cord. Handle the power 

cord by the plug. Do not pull out the plug by tugging the cord and never touch the power cord when your hands are wet 

as this could cause a short circuit or electric shock. Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with other cords. The power 

cord should be routed in such a way that it is not likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause fire or give 

you an electrical shock. Check the power cord once in a while. When you find it damaged, ask your closest service agent 

for help. When the AC power cord needs to be changed, it should be done at a qualified service shop only.

Choice of Location
•

 Please do not place the player in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or mechanical shock or in a location 

near heat sources.

•

 The player should be placed on a solid and safe base. Do not place the player on a soft surface such as a rug that might 

block the ventilation holes on the bottom.

•

 Do not place the player in a room subject to high humidity, such as a kitchen, as condensation may cause malfunction 

or damage the player.

•

 Heating or other thermal radiation under the player also may cause malfunction or damage the player.

•

 The hot air, which arises during the operation, should be ventilated with sufficient air circulation. Please do not put the 

set into closed areas and do not cover it.

•

 Do not allow the player to come in contact with water or humidity. Do not use the player near a bath or swimming 

pool.

•

 Take care to provide good air circulation. Place the player in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat build-up 

in the player.

•

 Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet, unplug the player and have it checked by qualified personnel before 

operating it any further.

HDMI cable (commercially available)

Scart cable (commercially available)

Be sure to turn off the power of each component before making the connections.

Use one video connection for best picture performance
When the player is connected to multiple video output connectors, the picture performance may be affected by unde-

sired video signals from the connectors that are not selected.
For best picture performance, it is recommended that you select the appropriate item from “Video” setup menu and 

use only one video connection method. (See page 32.)

HDMI Connector:
The HDMI connector can be used to connect the player to your TV set or AV amplifier via the HDMI cable. For this con-

nection, the TV set or AV amplifier must have an HDMI input connector.



•

 The HDMI connector does not support the DVI output using an HDMI-to-DVI adaptor or cable.

•

 The HDMI enables the TV to obtain optimal-resolution images automatically.

•

 You can manually change the output resolution (576p/720p/1080i) by using the HDMI button on the remote control.

SCART Connector:
If the player is not connected to a hi-fi set or AV amplifier to hear better sound, SCART is enough for both audio & video 

connections.
