“DVD VIDEO” logo is a trademark.

When you play an NTSC disc, this system outputs the video signal in the NTSC system only. In this case, if your TV is a PAL system mode,

the picture becomes noisy.

Region code of DVDs you can play on this unit

Your system has a region code printed on the back of the unit and will only play DVDs that are labeled with identical region codes.

DVDs labeled ALL will be also played on this unit.

If you try to play any other DVD, the message “Playing this disc prohibited by area limits.” will appear on the

TV screen.

Depending on the DVD, no region code indication may be labeled even though playing the DVD is prohibited

by the area limits.

Some playback operations of DVDs and VIDEO CDs may be intentionally fixed by software producers. Since this system plays DVDs

and VIDEO CDs according to the disc contents the software producers designed, some playback features may not be available. Also

refer to the instructions supplied with the DVDs or VIDEO CDs.
