INTRODUCTION

Your portable DVD player

Your portable DVD player plays digital video discs conforming to the universal

DVD Video standard. With it, you will be able to enjoy full-length movies with

true cinema picture quality, and stereo or multichannel sound (depending on the

disc and on your playback set-up).

The unique features of DVD-Video, such as selection of soundtrack and subtitle

languages, and of different camera angles (again depending on the disc), are all

included.

What’s more, parental lock lets you decide which discs your children will be able

to see. You will find your player remarkably easy to use with the On-Screen

Display and player display in combination with the remote control.

• Portable DVD player • Remote Control

• Rechargeable battery pack • User Manual

• Warranty • Audio / Video cable

• Second LCD screen (PAC13X) • Car headrest mounting kit

Placement

• Place the player on a firm, flat surface.

• Keep away from domestic heating equipment and direct sunlight.

• If the player cannot read CDs/DVDs correctly, try using a commonly

available cleaning CD/DVD to clean the lens before taking the player to be

repaired. Other cleaning methods may destroy the lens.

•The lens may cloud over when the player is suddenly moved from cold to warm

surroundings. It is then not possible to play a CD/DVD. Leave the player in a warm

environment until the moisture evaporates.

age. Otherwise, the AC adaptor and unit may be damaged.

• When connecting with car power (cigarette lighter) adaptor, be sure the

input voltage of the adaptor is identical with car voltage.

• Unplug the AC adaptor from the outlet or remove the battery pack when

the unit is not used for long periods of time.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Hearing Safety

Listen at a moderate volume:

• Using headphones at a high volume can impair your hearing. This

product can produce sounds in decibel ranges that may cause hear-

ing loss for a normal person, even for exposure less than a minute.

The higher decibel ranges are offered for those that may have

already experienced some hearing loss.

• Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to high-

er volumes of sound. So after prolonged listening, what sounds "normal" can

actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. To guard against this, set your

volume to a safe level before your hearing adapts and leave it there.

To establish a safe volume level:

• Set your volume control at a low setting.

• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, without

distortion.

Listen for reasonable periods of time:

• Prolonged exposure to sound, even at normally "safe" levels, can also cause

hearing loss.

• Be sure to use your equipment reasonably and take appropriate breaks.

Be sure to observe the following guidelines when using your headphones:

• Listen at reasonable volumes for reasonable periods of time.

• Be careful not to adjust the volume as your hearing adapts.

• Do not turn up the volume so high that you can't hear what's around you.

• You should use caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous

situations.

• Do not use headphones while operating a motorized vehicle, cycling, skate-

boarding, etc.; it may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.
