Precautions
1. Recording Copyright—Unless it’s for personal use
only, recording copyrighted material is illegal without
the permission of the copyright holder.
2. AC Fuse—The AC fuse inside the unit is not user-
serviceable. If you cannot turn on the unit, contact
your Onkyo dealer.
3. Care—Occasionally you should dust the unit all over
with a soft cloth. For stubborn stains, use a soft cloth
dampened with a weak solution of mild detergent and
water. Dry the unit immediately afterwards with a clean
cloth. Don’t use abrasive cloths, thinners, alcohol, or
other chemical solvents, because they may damage
the finish or remove the panel lettering.

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 voltage
requirements printed on the unit’s rear panel (e.g., AC
230 V, 50 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.
Never disconnect the power cord from a wall outlet
while the player is turned on, unless it is in an
emergency. Doing so may cause malfunction.
Pressing the [ON/STANDBY] button 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. Never Touch this Unit with Wet Hands—Never
handle this unit or its power cord while your hands are
wet or damp. If water or any other liquid gets inside
this unit, have it checked by your Onkyo dealer.
6. 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 use volatile liquids, such as insect spray,
near the player. Do not leave rubber or plastic items
on this unit for a long time, because they may leave
marks on the case.
This unit’s top and rear panels may get warm after
prolonged use. This is normal.
If you do not use this unit for a long time, it may not
work properly the next time you turn it on, so be sure
to use it occasionally.

7. Installing this Unit
Before placing the player, make sure that the
surface can stand the weight of the player.
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 overheat,
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
malfunction.
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.
Never place the player in a high location to avoid
damage to the product or person by an accidental
fall of the player.
8. To Obtain a Clear Picture—This unit is a high-tech,
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.
9. 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
conditioner 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.
