instructions on the use of chemically-coated cloths. Do not use
benzene, thinner or other organic solvents including disinfectants.
These may cause deformation or discoloring.
If water gets inside the system
Turn the system off and disconnect the power cord plug from the
wall outlet, then call the store where you made your purchase. Using
the system in this condition may cause a fire or electrical shock.

Notes on DVD-R and DVD-RW
• This system does not support “multi-border” disc.
Notes on CD-R and CD-RW
• This system can play CD-Rs or CD-RWs recorded with ISO 9660
format.
• This system supports “multi-session” discs (up to 20 sessions).
• This system cannot play “packet write” discs.
Region code of DVD VIDEO
DVD VIDEO players and DVD VIDEO discs have their own
Region Code numbers. This system can play back DVD VIDEO
discs whose Region Code numbers include the system’s Region
Code, which is indicated on the rear panel.
• Example of playable DVD:
For the countries of the Middle East
For the countries of the Southeast Asia
If a DVD with an improper Region Code number is loaded,
“REGION CODE ERROR!” appears on the TV screen and playback
cannot start.
Some discs may not be played back because of their disc
characteristics, recording conditions, or damage or stain on them.
Unplayable discs
DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, CD-I (CD-I Ready), Photo CD, SACD,
etc.
Playing back these discs will generate noise and damage the
speakers.
• It is possible to play back finalized +R/+RW (DVD Video Format
only) discs. “DVD” lights on the display panel when a +R/+RW
disc is loaded.
• This system accommodates the NTSC and PAL system. When
you play an NTSC disc with the scan mode set to PAL (see page
20), the NTSC video signal is converted to the PAL60 signal and
output.
• The Non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does not comply with the
“Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard. Therefore, the use of
Non-DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be
recommended.
• On some DVD VIDEOs, DVD AUDIOs, VCDs or SVCDs,
their actual operation may be different from what is explained
in this manual. This is due to the disc programming and disc
structure, not a malfunction of this system.

• The system recognizes up to 150 tracks (files) per group, 99
groups per disc/device, and the total number of the tracks (files)
that the system can play is 4000.
• MP3/WMA/JPEG/ASF/MPEG-2/MPEG-1/DivX files require a
longer readout time. (It differs due to the complexity of the
directory/file configuration.)
• If different kinds of files are mixed, set the FILE TYPE setting in
the PICTURE menu to the appropriate setting for the data to be
read (“AUDIO”, “STILL PICTURE” or “VIDEO”). (See page 38.)

• If the track information (track title, artist, and album name, etc.)
is recorded, it appears in the file control display on the TV screen.
(See page 30.)
• We recommend to record each piece of material (song) at a
sample rate of 44.1 kHz and at a data transfer rate of
128 (96*)kbps.
* For WMA only
For JPEG files
• We recommend to record a file at 640 x 480 resolution. (If a file
has been recorded at a resolution of more than 640 x 480, it will
take a longer time to be displayed.)

• When installing the surround speakers on the wall;
– Be sure to have them installed on the wall by qualified personnel.
DO NOT install the satellite speakers on the wall by yourself to
avoid unexpected damage from falling off the wall due to incorrect
installation or weakness in wall structure.

Precautions for daily use
• When moving the speakers, do not pull the speaker cords;
otherwise, the speakers may fall over, causing damage or injury.
• Do not reproduce sounds at so high a volume that the sound is
distorted; otherwise, the speakers may be damaged by internal
heat buildup.
• When holding a speaker, always grasp the lower portion.
• Do not lean against the speakers, as the speakers could fall down
or break, possibly causing an injury. Especially be careful that
children do not lean against them.
