the permission of the copyright holder.
2. AC Fuse—The AC fuse inside the unit is not user-ser-
viceable. If you cannot turn on the unit, contact your

with a soft cloth. For stubborn stains, use a soft cloth
dampened with a weak solution of mild detergent and

WARNING
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE
FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION
CAREFULLY.
AC outlet voltages vary from country to country.
Make sure that the voltage in your area meets the volt-
age requirements printed on the unit’s rear panel (e.g.,
AC 200-240 V, 50/60 Hz or AC 120 V, 60 Hz).
The power cord plug is used to disconnect this unit
from the AC power source. Make sure that the plug is
readily operable (easily accessible) at all times.
Pressing ON/STANDBY to select Standby mode does
not fully shutdown the unit. If you do not intend to use
the unit for an extended period, remove the power cord
from the AC outlet.
5. Preventing Hearing Loss
Caution
Excessive sound pressure from earphones and head-
phones can cause hearing loss.

Batteries (battery pack or batteries installed) shall not
be exposed to excessive heat as sunshine, fire or the
like.

dle this unit or its power cord while your hands are

this unit, have it checked by your Onkyo dealer.
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 leave rubber or plastic items on this unit for
a long time, because they may leave marks on the

This unit’s top and rear panels may get warm after
prolonged use. This is normal.

9. Installing this Unit
Install this unit in a well-ventilated location.
Ensure that there’s adequate ventilation all around
this unit, especially if it’s installed in an audio rack.
If the ventilation is inadequate, the unit may over-
heat, leading to malfunction.
Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or heat
sources, because its internal temperature may rise,
shortening the life of the optical pickup.
Avoid damp and dusty places, and places subject to
vibrations from loudspeakers.
Never put the unit on top of, or directly above a
loudspeaker.
Install this unit horizontally. Never use it on its side
or on a sloping surface, because it may cause a mal-
function.
If you install this unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the
picture and sound quality may be affected. If this
occurs, move this unit away from the TV, radio, or
VCR.
10. To Obtain a Clear Picture—This unit is a hightech,
precision device. If the lens on the optical 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 Onkyo dealer for details.
11. Moisture Condensation
Moisture condensation may damage this unit.
Read the following carefully:
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 con-
ditioner is hitting the unit.
In the summer, when this unit is moved from an
air conditioned 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.
12. Region Codes—The BD/DVD standard uses region
codes to control how discs can be played around the
world, the world being divided into three regions (BD)
or six regions (DVD). This unit will only play BD/
DVD discs that match its region code, which can be
found on its rear panel.
