Precautions (continued)

• The power requirements and power consumption of this unit are indicated on the AC adaptor. Check that the unit’s operating voltage is identical with your local power supply.

On safety

• Caution – The use of optical instruments with this product will increase eye hazard.

• To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place objects filled with liquids, such as vases, on the apparatus.

• 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.

• Do not put any foreign objects in the DC IN 9.8V (external power input) jack.

• This car adaptor is not intended to be serviced.

Should the product cease to function in its intended manner, it should be returned to the manufacturer or to be discarded.

On temperature increases

• Heat may build up while charging or during extented use.

This is not a malfunction.

• If the surrounding temperature is very high, the protective function will turn off the player automatically.

Leave the player in a cool location for about 30 minutes before using it again.

On power sources

• Use only the supplied AC adaptor. Do not use any other

AC adaptor. It may cause a malfunction.

Polarity of the plug

• If the AC adaptor causes interference to radio reception, move it away from the radio.

• Do not touch the AC adaptor with wet hands.

• Even when the player is turned off, it is still connected to the AC power source (mains) as long as it remains connected to the wall outlet.

• If you are not going to use the player for a long time, be sure to disconnect the player from the wall outlet. To disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead), grasp the plug itself; never pull the cord.

• Should the AC power cord need to be changed, have it done at a qualified service shop only.

CAUTION

Never expose the battery pack to temperatures above 140°

F (60° C) such as in a car parked in the sun or under direct sunlight.

On the rechargeable battery

• Charge the battery before you start using it.

• Do not allow dust to come into contact with the battery terminals of the player and battery.

• Do not short the terminals.

• Do not open the terminal covers of the player.

• Do not leave the battery in a place subject to direct sunlight, or in a car with its windows closed.

• Keep the battery dry.

• Use only the battery(NP-FX105) supplied with this player(DVP-FX705). Other rechargeable batteries supplied with other models cannot be used with this player.

• Do not disassemble.

• Do not incinerate.

• Dispose of used batteries promptly.

To dispose of the rechargeable battery

• Certain countries may regulate disposal of the battery used to power this product. Please consult with your local authority.

To store the rechargeable battery

The battery is consumed gradually as time elapses even if is not used. In order to prevent the battery from deteriorating, store it as follows:

• Remove the battery from the player after use.

(Even if the player is off, it still uses some power.)

• Use up the battery completely on the player before storing it.

• Keep the battery in a cool location to prevent it from deteriorating.

• Charge and use the battery at least once every 6 months.

On charging the rechargeable battery

• Heat may build up in the battery while charging.

This is not a malfunction.

• When the battery life of a fully charged battery becomes about half the normal life, you may need to replace the battery with a new one.

• Disconnect the battery from the player as soon as it has been charged. Leaving it connected may result in reduced battery performance.

On handling the player

• Keep the lens on the player clean and do not touch it. If you do so, the lens may be damaged, and the player will not operate properly.

• Place the player in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the player.

• Do not put any heavy object on top of the player. The player and the discs may be damaged.

• Do not leave the player in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or sand, moisture, rain, mechanical shock, on an unlevel surface, or in a car with its windows closed.

• Do not wrap the player in a cloth or blanket during use as it may cause malfunction or serious accidents.

• If the player causes interference to radio or television reception, turn off the player or move it away from the radio or television.

• Keep the player and discs away from equipment with strong magnets, such as microwave ovens, or large loudspeakers.

• Do not install this equipment in a confined space such as a bookshelf or similar unit.

• If the player is brought directly from a cold to warm location, or is placed in a very damp place, moisture may condense on the lenses of the player. Should this occur, the player may not operate properly. In this case, remove the disc and leave the player for about half an hour until the moisture evaporates.

It’s too warm!

• Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g, heart, square, star) cannot be played on this player. Do not use such discs.

• While operating, do not move, shake or otherwise allow any shock to the player. It may cause a malfunction.

• Use this player in a stable, horizontal position where it is not subject to vibration.

• Do not touch the disc if it is still spinning when you open the lid.

• Before moving the player, remove any disc from it.

If you don’t, the disc may be damaged.

7


On handling the LCD screen

• The LCD is manufactured using high-precision technology. You may, however, see tiny black points and/or bright points (red, blue, green) that continuously appear on the

LCD. This is a normal result of the manufacturing process and does not indicate a malfunction.

• Do not scratch the LCD or exert pressure on it. This could cause a malfunction.

• Using the player in low temperature conditions may produce a residual image on the screen. This is not a malfunction. When the player returns to normal temperature, the screen returns to normal.

• A residual image may appear on the screen if the same image is displayed for a lengthy period of time. The residual image disappears in a while.

If you are going to leave the player for a long time, turn off the power.

• The screen becomes warm during operation.

This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.

On headphones

Preventing hearing damage

Avoid using headphones at high volume. Hearing experts advise against continuous, loud, and extended play. If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce the volume or discontinue use.

Showing consideration for others

Keep the volume at a moderate level. This will allow you to hear outside sounds and still be considerate to the people around you.

On adjusting the volume

Do not turn up the volume while listening to a section with very low level inputs or no audio signal. If you do, the speakers may be damaged when a peak-level section is played.

Road safety

Do not use the monitor unit and headphones while driving, cycling, or operating any motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in some areas. It can also be potentially dangerous to play your headsets at high volume while walking, especially at pedestrian crossings. You should exercise extreme caution or discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.

• Do not install the monitor display where viewable by the driver.

• Some states restrict the use of monitors and televisions in vehicles. Where use is permitted, the units should not be installed or operated so as to be viewable by the driver.

8


On transportation

• When you transport this player, use the original carton box and packing materials.

• Before you move this player, make sure to remove any discs from it.

On cleaning

Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent such as alcohol or benzine.

On cleaning discs

Do not use a commercially available cleaning disc. It may cause a malfunction.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Caution: This player is capable of holding a still video image or on-screen display image on your television screen indefinitely. If you leave the still video image or on-screen display image displayed on your TV for an extended period of time you risk permanent damage to your television screen. Plasma Display Panel televisions and projection televisions are especially susceptible to this.

If you have any questions or problems concerning your player, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
