NOTE

Some commercial discs and DVD discs purchased outside your region may not be playable with this product. When these discs are played, either “This disc can not be played.” or “Cannot read this disc. Please check the regional code of the disc.” will be displayed.

Playback may not work for some types of discs, or when specific operations, such as angle change and aspect ratio adjustment, are being performed. Information about the discs is written in detail on the disc box. Please refer to this if necessary.

Do not allow the disc to become dirty or scratched. Fingerprints, dirt, dust, scratches or deposits of cigarette smoke on the recording surface may make it impossible to use the disc for playback.

When a BD-J title is played, loading may take longer than a normal title, or some functions may perform slowly.

This product may not respond to all operating commands because some Blu-ray, DVD and CD discs allow specific or limited operation and features during playback.

Please note that this is not a defect in the product.

Samsung cannot assure that this product will play every disc bearing the Blu-ray Disc, DVD or CD logo because disc formats evolve, and problems and errors may occur during the creation of Blu-ray Disc, DVD, CD software and/or the manufacture of discs. Please contact the SAMSUNG customer care centre if you have questions or encounter difficulty when playing Blu-ray, DVD, or CD discs in this product. Also, refer to rest of this user manual for additional information on playback restrictions.
