IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Careful attention is devoted to quality standards in the manufacture of

your system, and safety is a major factor in its design. However, safety

is also your responsibility.

15. Ventilation — Slots and openings in the cabinet provide

ventilation, ensure reliable operation, and protect from

overheating. Do not block or cover these openings, and do not

place the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Do

not place the product in a built-in installation such as a bookcase

or rack unless it provides proper ventilation as specified by the

manufacturer.

example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, or laundry

tub; in a wet basement; or near a swimming pool).

18. Power-Cord Protection — Route power-supply cords so they are

not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed on or

against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs,

convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the

product.

5. Accessories — Do not place this product on an unstable cart,

stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The product may fall, causing

serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the

product. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table

recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the product.

Follow the manufacturer's instructions for mounting, and use a

recommended mounting accessory.

19. Lightning — For added protection for this product during a

radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in

accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful

interference to radio communications.

25. Safety Check — Upon completion of service or repairs to this

product, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to

determine that the product is in proper operating condition.

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:

26. Wall or Ceiling Mount — The product should be mounted to a

wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.

27. Heat — The product should be situated away from heat sources

28. Non-use Periods — Unplug the system’s power cord when you

will not use it for extended periods.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and

receiver.

29. Outdoor Antenna Grounding — If an outside antenna or cable

system is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable

system is grounded so as to provide some protection against

voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the

National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information

with regard to proper grounding of the mast and supporting

structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge

unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge

unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for

the grounding electrode.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different

from that to which the receiver is connected.

• Consult your local RadioShack store or an experienced

radio/TV technician for help.

• If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires

that you stop using your system.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by

RadioShack may cause interference and void the user’s

authority to operate the equipment.

30. Power Lines — An outside antenna system should not be located

in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or

power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or

circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme

care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or

circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

• Do not place discs on top of the receiver.

• Do not touch the playback side of the disc.

• Do not attach paper or tape to discs.

Cleaning Discs

Fingerprints and dust on the disc cause picture and sound

playback of discs by children. Your DVD player has a password

device designed to prevent children from changing the level.

If you change the rating level to 7 or lower, you must enter a 4-

digit password to access playback of discs with higher ratings.

To set this password, follow these steps.

movie rating is printed on the disc jacket. The rating level

feature does not work for such discs.

• If you change the level and enter a password, playback of

all DVDs with ratings higher than your selection will be

blocked, unless you enter the correct password again. For

example: if you change the level to 5, the DVD player will

not play discs with ratings of 6, 7, or 8 unless the correct

password is entered from the remote control.
