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.

Region code (DVD VIDEO only)

Your system has a region code printed 
on the rear of the unit and will only 
play a DVD VIDEO (playback only) 
labeled with an identical region code or 

.

Note on multi-session discs

This system can play back continuous 
sessions on a disc when they are 
recorded in the same format as the first 
session. When a session recorded in a 
different format is encountered, that 
session and the ones following it 
cannot be played back. Note that even 
if the sessions are recorded in the same 
format, some sessions may not play 
back.

Notes on discs

 

The system can only play back a 
standard circular disc. Using anything 
other than standard or circular discs 
(e.g., card, heart, or star shaped discs) 
may cause a malfunction.

 

Do not use a disc that has a 
commercially available accessory 
attached, such as a label or ring.
