–

Because of problems and errors that can occur during

the creation of DVD software and/or the manufacture

of DVD discs, Toshiba America Consumer Products,

Inc., Toshiba Hawaii, Inc. and Toshiba of Canada, Ltd.

cannot guarantee that this player will play every fea-

ture of every DVD bearing the DVD logo. As one of the

creators of DVD technology, Toshiba DVD players are

manufactured to the highest standards of quality and,

as a result, such incompatibilities are very rare. If you

happen to experience and difficulty playing a DVD on a

Toshiba DVD player, please feel free to call our

Contact listed in “How to Obtain Warranty Services” on

page 28.

Types of video CDs

There are two types of video CDs:

Video CDs equipped with PBC (Version 2.0)

PBC (Playback control) functions allow you to interact

with the system via menus, search functions, or other

typical computer-like operations. Moreover, still pictures

of high resolution can be played if they are included in

the disc.

Video CDs not equipped with PBC (Version 1.1)

Operated in the same way as audio CDs, these discs

allow playback of video pictures as well as sound, but

they are not equipped with PBC.

Notes on DVDs and Video CDs

Some playback operations of DVDs and Video CDs

may be intentionally fixed by software manufacturers.

As this unit plays DVDs and Video CDs according to

disc content designed by the software manufacturer,

some playback features of the unit may not be available

or other functions may be added.

Refer also to the instructions supplied with the DVDs

and Video CDs. Some DVDs made for business pur-

poses may not be played on the unit.

Regional code of the DVD player and DVDs

This DVD player is designed and manufactured

for playback of region “1” encoded DVD soft-

ware. The region code on the labels of some DVD discs

indicates which type of player can play those discs. This

unit can play only DVD discs labeled “1” or “ALL”. If you

try to play any other discs, the message “Check Regional

Code” will appear on the TV screen. Some DVD discs

may not have a region code label even though their play-

back is prohibited by area limits.

Before Use (Continued)

Precautions

Storing discs

After playing, store the disc in its case.

Handling the unit

Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of

heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct sun-

light, as there may be a considerable temperature

increase inside the car.

When shipping the unit

The original shipping carton and packing materials

come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the

unit as it was originally packed at the factory.

Cleaning discs

When setting up the unit

Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor pic-

ture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean

the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the cen-

ter out.

The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR, or radio

may be distorted during playback. In this case, position

the unit away from the TV, VCR, or radio, or turn off the

unit after removing the disc.

To keep the exterior surfaces clean

Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray,

near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in

contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will

leave marks on the surface.

Cleaning the unit

Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine,

thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static

spray intended for older vinyl records.

To clean the cabinet

Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty,

use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent

solution. Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol,

benzine, or thinner, as these might damage the surface

of the unit.

1. BE SURE PROCEDURES AND INSTRUCTIONS TO ALL SERVICE PER-

SONNEL COVER THE SUBJECT OF X-RADIATION. THE ONLY POTEN-

TIAL SOURCE OF X-RAYS IN CURRENT T.V. RECEIVERS IS THE PIC-

TURE TUBE. HOWEVER, THIS TUBE DOES NOT EMIT X-RAYS WHEN

THE HIGH VOLTAGE IS AT THE FACTORY SPECIFIED LEVEL. THE

PROPER VALUE IS GIVEN IN THE APPLICABLE SCHEMATIC. OPERA-

TION AT HIGHER VOLTAGES MAY CAUSE A FAILURE OF THE PIC-

TURE TUBE OR HIGH VOLTAGE SUPPLY AND, UNDER CERTAIN CIR-

CUMSTANCES, MAY PRODUCE RADIATION IN EXCESS OF DESIR-

ABLE LEVELS.

SERVICE WORK SHOULD BE PERFORMED ONLY AFTER YOU ARE

THOROUGHLY FAMILIAR WITH ALL OF THE FOLLOWING SAFETY

SERVICING PRECAUTIONS

CAUTION : Before servicing the DVD covered by this service

Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices

data and its supplements and addends, read and follow the

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS. NOTE : if unforeseen circum-

stances create conflict between the following servicing pre-

cautions and any of the safety precautions in this publica-

tions, always follow the safety precautions.

Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged

easily by static electricity. Such components commonly are

called Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices. Examples of

typical ES devices are integrated circuits and some field

effect transistors and semiconductor chip components.

The following techniques should be used to help reduce the

incidence of component damage caused by static electricity.

Remembers Safety First:

General Servicing Precautions

1. Always unplug the DVD AC power cord from the AC

power source before:

(1) Removing or reinstalling any component, circuit board,

module, or any other assembly.

(2) Disconnection or reconnecting any internal electrical

plug or other electrical connection.

1. Immediately before handling any semiconductor compo-

nent or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any

electrostatic charge on your body by touching a known

earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and wear a commer-

cially available discharging wrist strap device, which

should be removed for potential shock reasons prior to

applying power to the unit under test.

(3) Connecting a test substitute in parallel with an elec-

trolytic capacitor.

Caution : A wrong part substitution or incorrect

polarity installation of electrolytic capacitors may result

in an explosion hazard.

2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ES

devices, place the assembly on a conductive surface such

as aluminum foil, to prevent electrostatic charge buildup or

exposure of the assembly.

2. Do not spray chemicals on or near this DVD or any of

its assemblies.

3. Use only a grouned-tip soldering iron to solder or unsolder

ES devices.

3. Unless specified otherwise in this service data, clean

electrical contacts by applying an appropriate contact

cleaning solution to the contacts with a pipe cleaner,

cotton-tipped swab, or comparable soft applicator.

Unless specified otherwise in this service data, lubrication

of contacts is not required.

4. Use only an anti-static solder removal device. Some

solder removal devices not classified a “anti-static” can

generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ES

devices.

5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can

generate electrical charge sufficient to damage ES

devices.

4. Do not defeat any plug/socket B+ voltage interlocks with

whitch instruments covered by this service manual might

be equipped.

6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its protec

tive package until immediately before you are ready to

install it. (Most replacement ES devices are packaged with

leads electrically shorted together by conductive foam,

aluminum foil, or comparable conductive material).

5. Do not apply AC power to this DVD and/or any of its

electrical assemblies unless all solid-state device heat

sinks are cerrectly installed.

6. Always connect test instrument ground lead to the

appropriate ground before connection the test instrument

positive lead. Always remove the test instrument ground

lead last.

7. Immediately before removing the protective material from

the leads of a replacement ES device, touch the protective

material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the

device will be installed.

Insulation Checking Procedure

Disconnect the attachment plug from the AC outlet and turn

the power on. Connect an insulation resistance meter(500V)

to the blades of the attachment plug. The insulation resis-

tance between each blade of the attachment plug and acces-

sible conductive parts (Note 1) should be more than 1M-

ohm.

Caution : Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or

circuit, and observe all other safety precautions.

8. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged

replacement ES devices. (Normally harmless motion such

as the brushing together of your clothes fabric or the lifting

of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate static elec-

tricity sufficient to damage an ES device.)

Note 1 : Accessible Conductive Parts including Metal pan-

els, Input terminals, Earphone jacks, etc.
