All LifeBook DVD players are set to play DVD titles with region code number 1 which is specified for the North American market. The region number is a regional restriction code defined by the DVD Forum acting on Hollywood requirements. Different region codes are recorded on video DVD titles for publication in different areas of the world. If the regional code of the DVD player does not match the regional codes on the titles, then play- back is impossible.

You can change the region code on the DVD player using the Properties menu of the DVD software. Note, however, that you can only change the region code up to four times. After the fourth change, the last region code entered becomes perma- nent, and cannot be changed.
