In addition to the above discs, this unit can play back audio data recorded on CD Text, CD-G (CD Graphics), and CD-Extra.

•The following discs cannot be played back: DVD Audio, DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, DVD-RW,

DVD-R, CD-ROM, CD-I (CD-I Ready), Photo CD, etc. Playing back these discs will generate noise and damage the speakers.

•On some DVD, SVCD, or VCD, the actual operations may be different from what is explained in this manual, due to the programming and disc structure; such difference are not a malfunction of this unit.

•Continued use of irregular shape discs (heart-shape, octagonal, etc.) can damage the unit.

•The Macrovision’s copy protection system is applied to this unit. If you make a copy on your VCR from a disc that is recorded this copy protection signal, the copy cannot be played back normally.

*1 Note on Region Code

DVD players and DVDs have their own Region Code numbers. This unit can play back only DVDs recorded with the NTSC or PAL color system whose Region Code numbers include “3.”

Ex.: 3 3

If a DVD with the improper Region Code numbers is loaded, “REGION CODE ERROR” appears on the display and playback cannot start.

*2 Note on Video Format

•DVDs recorded with the PAL color system cannot be converted into the NTSC color system.

•DVDs recorded with the NTSC color system can be converted into the PAL color system.

•When playing back a SVCD or VCD, the unit can convert both from PAL to NTSC and NTSC to PAL.

Notes on CD-R and CD-RW

•User-edited CD-Rs (Recordable) and CD-RWs (Rewritable) can be played back only if they have been “finalized.”

•The unit can play back CD-Rs or CD-RWs if they have been recorded in the audio CD format.

The unit can also play back CD-Rs or CD-RWs if MP3 files are recorded on them.

However, these discs may not play back because of their disc characteristics, recording conditions, damage to the disc.

•Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their instructions or cautions carefully.

•CD-RWs may require a longer readout time, as the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for regular CDs.
