Care and Cleaning
CAUTION: Turn OFF your TV/DVD before cleaning.
You can clean the TV/DVD as required, using a soft lint-free cloth. Be sure to occasionally dust the ventilation slots in the
cabinet to help assure adequate ventilation.
The TV/DVD’s screen may be cleaned with a soft, lint-free cloth as well. Take care not to scratch or mar the screen. If
necessary, you may use a cloth dampened with warm water. Never use strong cleaning agents, such as ammonia-based
cleaners, or abrasive powder. These types of cleaners will damage the TV/DVD.
While cleaning do not spray liquid directly on the screen, or allow liquid to run down the screen and inside the TV/DVD.
Also, avoid placing drinks or vases with water on top of the TV/DVD. This could increase the risk of fire or shock hazard or
damage to the TV/DVD.
Caution: Using video games or any external accessory with fixed images for extended periods of time can cause
them to be permanently imprinted on the picture tube (or projection TV picture tubes). ALSO, some network/
program logos, phone numbers, etc. may cause similar damage. This damage is not covered by your warranty.
Handling Cautions
• Before connecting other components to this TV/DVD, be sure to turn all components off.
• Don’t move the TV/DVD while a disc is being played. The disc may get scratched or broken, and the TV/DVD’s internal
parts may be damaged.
• Don’t put any container filled with liquid or any small metal objects on the TV/DVD.
• Be careful not to put your hand into the disc tray.
• Don’t place anything other than the disc in the disc tray.
• Exterior influences such as lightning and static electricity can affect normal operation of this player. If this occurs, turn
the TV/DVD off and on again with the ON•OFF button, or disconnect and then reconnect the AC power cord to the AC
power outlet. The TV/DVD will operate normally.
• Be sure to remove the disc and turn off the TV/DVD after use.
Formation of Condensation
• Due to sharp changes in temperature and humidity, condensation may form if warm air comes in contact with any cold
parts inside the TV/DVD.
• When condensation forms inside the TV/DVD, it may not operate correctly. If this occurs, leave the TV/DVD at room
temperature until the inside of the disc tray becomes dry and operational.
• If condensation forms on a disc, wipe the disc with a soft, dry cloth by moving the cloth from the center hole toward
the outer edge.
Handling Discs
• Don’t touch the disc’s signal surfaces. Hold by the edges or by one edge and the hole in the center.
• Don’t affix labels or adhesive tape to label surfaces. Don’t scratch or damage the label.
• Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.
