Music discs encoded with copyright 

protection technologies

This product is designed to play back discs 

that conform to the Compact Disc (CD) 

standard. Recently, various music discs 

encoded with copyright protection 

technologies are 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.

Note on DualDiscs

A DualDisc 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.

Note on playback operations of a DVD

Some playback operations for a DVD may be 

intentionally restricted by software 

producers. Since this system plays a DVD 

according to the disc contents, some playback 

features may not be available.

Note about double-layer DVDs

The playback picture and sound may be 

momentarily interrupted when the layers 

switch.
