Care and Safety Information

DANGER!

High voltage! Do not open the device. You run the risk of getting an electric shock.

The machine does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Please leave all maintenance work to qualifi ed personnel.

Cleaning discs

Some problems occur because the disc inside the player is dirty (frozen picture, sound disruptions, picture distortions).

To avoid these problems, discs should be cleaned on a regular basis.

– Install this unit near the AC outlet and where the AC power plug can be reached easily.

Space for ventilation

– Place the apparatus in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat build up. Allow at least

10 cm (4.0”) clearance from the rear and the top of the set and 5cm (2.0”) from the left and right to prevent overheating.

5cm (2.0")

CAUTION!

Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static sprays intended for analog discs. Since the optical unit (laser) of the

Frequently Asked Questions (USB)

Why does it take so long to display the contents on my USB device?

– This could be due to the large numbers of fi les (>500 fi les/folders) or size of the fi les (>1MB.)

– There could be other non-supported fi les in the device that the system is trying to read/display.

What if un-supported devices (e.g. USB mouse, keyboards) are plugged into the player?

– The device may cause the player to be unstable. Remove the unsupported device and unplug the mains cord. Wait for a few minutes before reconnecting the mains cord and power on the player again.

What types of fi le does the player support?

– We support only FAT16 and FAT32, not

NTFS.

Why does the fi le name appear to be different from what was displayed on my computer (e.g. from “Good Bye. jpg” to

“Good_B~1.jpg”)?

– The length of the fi le name is restricted by the fi le system of the device (FAT16), which only supports eight (8) characters.

– The computer may be able to display the full fi le name as the operating system can convert the fi le system.

What happens when I plug in a USB

HDD?

– HDD is not supported as the large storage capacity makes navigation very diffi cult. Transfer the music fi les (mp3) and photos (jpg) into a fl ash drive.

Is simultaneous USB and Disc playback possible?

– This is not possible due to memory limitation. In addition, a different user interface will be needed in order to function and in order to be simple enough to use.

Why does the system fail to detect my

USB portable music player?

– The portable music player may require propriety software that is bundled with our player in order to access the contents (eg. playlist.)

Why can’t I rotate the pictures in my device?

– In order to rotate the pictures in the

USB device, the picture must contain

EXIF information, stored by most digital cameras. This EXIF information may have been removed when you edit or copy the picture from other devices using editing programs.

Why can’t some devices be playback from USB Port on my player?

– USB Port only offer 500mA current, could not power up HDD players which require more current.

– Device which shows USB Mass Storage

Device might actually be USB Hub when detect in USB analyser.

– Devices in NTFS format can’t be supported.

– Devices require drivers to be installed will not supported by this player. They are not UMS or MTP devices, which does not require any driver installation or start up disc. When in UMS or MTP mode, the device is treated as an external HDD or portable device.

48
