for playback of region “5” encoded DVD soft-

Some DVD discs may not have a region code label even

may be heard from the analog stereo output. To avoid
possible damage to the audio system, turn down the
volume before playing back such discs, adjust the vol-
ume gradually, and keep the volume level low. To enjoy

nel DTS Digital Surround
