URGENT!!!!! Help and advice needed from Dansai 852 owners or Anyone please!!

Got a bit of a problem with my Dansai 852. It sits about chest hight on shelves and when I`ve had it on I get pain in my eyes, after 2 or 3 times I mentioned it too a friend who told me about eye damage from lasers.
Used it twice since and again same pains and I`m not prone too headaches or like usually.

If when a disc is playing and flap closed you stand about 1 to 2 feet from player and look in line through small gap at the top of door flap and level with it, you can see the red of the laser.
Tesco`s help line tell me you should not be able to see this.
Can any other owners see this red off the laser when looking through small gap at top of door when level with it from one or two feet or further.
Really appreciate some feedback here as a little worried, been advised by the helpline to get it looked at by my DR which off course I would anyway, hope no damage done.
Thanks, hope to hear from you all soon, Mark.

Mark,

not that I am prone to looking for a reason for a red laser to hit me int he eyes ... I took a look while playing Tom Raider (!) and there is no Red laser coming out of the top of the door.

There is a gap (albeit a small one) and I can see possibly two dull red lights but they certainly do not pass any laser through.

I know this won`t help but I would say take it back to tesco and get it replaced.

hope you feel better

cheers
Warney

Take it back to tesco and get it replaced....and also ask for a new Brain at the same time!

Thanks for advice, can anyone else see this red light/laser through the small gap at top of door flap when playing discs on their Dansai`s.
Thanks, all the best, Mark.

If you look at that red light for long enough you can sometimes see little Mecon`s running around in the player.

I can see the laser in mine, well I assume it is the laser because when I press stop then play I can see it move horizontally, but I have not suffered any physical discomfort, but then again it is at ankle height.
