CAUTION concerning the Power Cord
Most appliances recommend they be placed upon
a dedicated circuit;
That is, a single outlet circuit which powers only
that appliance and has no additional outlets or
branch circuits. Check the specification page of this
owner’s manual to be certain. Do not overload wall
outlets. Overloaded wall outlets, loose or damaged
wall outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords, or

appliance, and if its appearance indicates damage
or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of the
appliance, and have the cord replaced with an
exact replacement part by an authorized service
centre. Protect the power cord from physical or
mechanical abuse, such as being twisted, kinked,
pinched, closed in a door, or walked upon. Pay
particular attention to plugs, wall outlets, and
the point where the cord exits the appliance. To
disconnect power from the mains, pull out the

disc is damaged or dirty, or if there is dirt or
condensation on the player’s lens.
yy If you record a disc using a personal

it may not play because of the settings of
the application software used to create the
disc. (Check with the software publisher for
more detailed information.)
yy This player requires discs and recordings to
meet certain technical standards in order to
achieve optimal playback quality.
yy Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically set to
these standards. There are many different

these require certain pre-existing conditions
to ensure compatible playback.
yy Customers should note that permission
is required in order to download MP3 /
WMA files and music from the Internet.
Our company has no right to grant such
permission. Permission should always be
sought from the copyright owner.
yy You have to set the disc format option
to [Mastered] in order to make the discs
compatible with the LG players when
formatting rewritable discs. When setting
the option to Live System, you cannot use
it on LG player. (Mastered/Live File System :
Disc format system for windows Vista)
