Protect the power cord from physical or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted, kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall outlets, and
the point where the cord exits the appliance. To disconnect power from the mains, pull out the mains cord plug. When installing the product, ensure that the plug is easily accessible.

,,Note
yy Depending on the conditions of the recording equipment or the CD-R/RW (or DVD±R/RW) disc itself, some CD-R/RW (or DVD±R/RW) discs cannot be played on the unit.
yy Depending on the recording software & the finalization, some recorded discs (CD-R/RW, DVD±R/RW, BD-R/RE) may not be playable.
yy BD-R/RE, DVD±R/RW and CD-R/RW discs recorded using a personal computer or a DVD or CD Recorder may not play if the disc is damaged or dirty, or if there is dirt or condensation on the player’s lens.
yy If you record a disc using a personal computer, even if it is recorded in a compatible format, there are cases in which it may not play because of the settings of the application software used to create the disc. (Check with the software publisher for more detailed information.)
yy This player requires discs and recordings to meet certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal playback quality.
yy Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically set to these standards. There are many different types of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3 or WMA files) and these require certain pre-existing conditions to ensure compatible playback.
yy Customers should note that permission is required in order to download MP3 / WMA files and music from the Internet. Our company has no right to grant such permission. Permission should always be sought from the copyright owner.
yy You have to set the disc format option to [Mastered] in order to make the discs compatible with the LG players when formatting rewritable discs. When setting
the option to Live System, you cannot use it on LG player. (Mastered/Live File System : Disc format system for windows Vista)
“7” may appear on your TV display during operation and indicates that the function explained in this owner’s manual is not available on that specific media.
yy Because BD-ROM is a new format, certain disc, digital connection and other compatibility issues are possible. If you experience compatibility problems, please contact an authorized Customer Service Center.
yy This unit allows you to enjoy functions such as picture-in-picture, secondary audio and
Virtual packages, etc., with BD-ROM supporting BONUSVIEW (BD-ROM version 2 Profile 1 version 1.1). Secondary video and audio can be played from a disc compatible with the picture-in- picture function. For the playback method, refer to the instructions in the disc.
yy Viewing high-definition content and upconverting standard DVD content may require a HDMI-capable input or HDCP-capable DVI input on your display device.
yy Some BD-ROM and DVD discs may restrict the use of some operation commands or features.
yy You can use a USB device to store some disc related information, including downloaded online content. The disc you are using will control how long this information is retained.

Place the center speaker above or below the monitor or screen.
DSurround left speaker (L)/ ESurround right speaker (R):
Place these speakers behind your listening position, facing slightly inwards.
FSubwoofer:
The position of the subwoofer is not so critical, because low bass sounds are not highly directional. But it is better to place the subwoofer near the front speakers. Turn it slightly toward the center of the room to reduce the wall reflections.

About Ferrite Core (for EMI only)
Be sure to attach the ferrite core to the power cord
(for connecting to this unit and wireless receiver).
This ferrite core can reduce noises.

(fig.3)
,,Note
yy If there is a strong electromagnetic wave product nearby, interference may occur. Put the unit (Wireless Receiver and main unit) away from there.
yy If there is no audio signal for longer than 10 minutes, the Wireless Receiver will automatically switch to standby mode. In
power saving mode, both LEDs will turn red. LEDs will turn blue or yellow when there is any audio signal back.
yy If you operate main unit then wireless speakers (rear speakers) sound within a few seconds in standby mode.
yy Set the distance between this unit and Wireless Receiver within 10 m (32 ft.).
yy Optimum performance can be implemented only when the Wireless TX and the Wireless Receiver within distance of 2 m (6 ft.) to 10 m (32 ft.) is used since communication failure may occur if longer distance is used.
yy Be sure to match the speaker cable to the appropriate terminal on the components: + to + and – to –. If the cables are reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack bass.
yy It takes a few seconds (and may take longer) for the Wireless TX and Wireless Receiver to communicate with each other.
yy Use the rear speaker at least 30 cm (11 inch) away from either TV screen or PC monitor.
