Notes

•When [5.1 Channel] is selected, the front right (R) and left (L) audio channels are output from the AUDIO OUTPUT LEFT and RIGHT jack.

•If the center or surround components are not recorded on the disc, there will be no output from the CENTER or SURROUND output jacks. This is not a malfunction. The audio channels present on the disc can be verified in the program format indicators in the display.
