region code is indicated on the label on the bottom of the burner.)
Changing the region codes
You can change the region code to play a DVD that has a different
code. (The code cannot be changed for some playback software.)
When you insert the disc, the Caution screen appears. Follow the
on-screen instructions to change the code.
The region code for the burner can be changed 4 times only. The
code set the fourth time becomes the final code, so be sure to set
a frequently used code. Take sufficient care when changing the
code.
