BD/DVD region code
Your player has a region code printed on the back of the unit and only will play BD-ROM/DVD VIDEOs
(playback only) labeled with identical region codes. This system is used to protect copyrights.
DVD VIDEOs labeled
will also play on this player. Depending on the BD-ROM/DVD VIDEO, there
may be no region code indication, even though playing the BD-ROM/DVD VIDEO is prohibited by area
restrictions.
Note on playback operations of BDs/ DVDs
Some playback operations of BDs/DVDs may be intentionally set by software producers. Since
this player plays BDs/DVDs according to the disc contents the software producers designed, some
playback features may not be available. Also, refer to the instructions supplied with the BDs/DVDs.

Notes:
1 Notes about BD-REs/BD-Rs, DVD+RWs/ DVD+Rs, DVD-RWs/ DVD-Rs, or CD-Rs/CD-RWs
Some BD-REs/ BD-Rs, DVD+RWs/ DVD+Rs, DVD-RWs/ DVD-Rs, or CD-Rs/ CD-RWs cannot be
played on this player due to the recording quality or physical condition of the disc, or the characteristics
of the recording device and authoring software. The DVD disc will not play if it has not been correctly
finalized. For more information, refer to the operating instructions for the recording device. Note
that some playback functions may not work with some DVD+RWs/DVD+Rs, even if they have been
correctly finalized. In this case, view the disc by normal playback.
2 Music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies
This product is designed to playback discs that conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard. Recently,
various music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies are being marketed by some
record companies. Please be aware that among those discs, there are some that do not conform to
the CD standard and may not be playable by this product.
3 Note on Dual-Discs
A Dual-Disc is a two sided disc product which mates DVD recorded material on one side with digital
audio material on the other side. However, since the audio material side does not conform to the
Compact Disc (CD) standard, playback on this product is not guaranteed.
4 Note about double-layer DVDs
The playback pictures and sound may be momentarily interrupted when the layers switch.
5 Note about 8 cm BD-REs/8 cm BD-Rs
Some 8 cm BD-REs/8 cm BD-Rs cannot be played on this player.
