Notices

• Use only circular-shaped discs with the system. Do not use irregularly-shaped

discs (for example, heart- or star-shaped discs). Using irregularly-shaped discs
may cause a malfunction.

• Do not use damaged, re-shaped or repaired discs. Use of such discs may cause a

malfunction.

• When using an 8 cm disc, insert the disc in the system without an adaptor.
• The audio CD playback feature of this system is designed to conform to the

Compact Disc (CD) standard. Recently, some record companies have started
marketing music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies. Some of
these music discs do not conform to the CD standard and may not be playable on
this system.

• A DualDisc is a dual-sided disc that combines a DVD side and an audio side. Note

that the audio side is not guaranteed to play because this type of disc does not
conform to the specifications required for an audio Compact Disc (CD).

• If a device that is not compatible with the HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content

Protection) standard is connected to the system using an HDMI cable, video or
audio cannot be output from the system.

• Copyright-protected Blu-ray video discs can only be output at 1080p using an

HDMI cable connected to a device that is compatible with the HDCP (High-
bandwidth Digital Content Protection) standard.

• When you use the AV MULTI OUT connector of the system to connect to a TV,

the resolution used to output copyright-protected video from a BD or from video
files may be limited or the video may not be output.

• Audio from Super Audio CDs cannot be output from the system's digital out

(optical) connector. Multi-channel content from Super Audio CDs can only be
output from the HDMI OUT connector.

• When playing discs with content that was copied fraudulently, abnormal sounds

may be produced or the content may not play correctly.

• To continuously enjoy playback of copyright-protected BDs, in some cases the

AACS (Advanced Access Control System) key may need to be renewed. To renew
the key, the system must be updated.

• Some discs may not be playable due to scratches, dust, the quality of recording, or

the characteristics of the recording device.

• In rare instances, CDs, DVDs, BDs and other media may not operate properly

when played on the PS3™ system. This is primarily due to variations in the
manufacturing process or encoding of the software.
