Notes on Copyrights

•Because AACS (Advanced Access Content System) is approved as content protection system for BD format, similar to use of CSS (Content Scramble System) for DVD format, certain restrictions are imposed on playback, analogue signal output, etc., of AACS protected contents. The operation of this product and restrictions on this product may vary depending on your time of purchase as those restrictions may be adopted and/or changed by AACS after the production of this product.

•Furthermore, BD-ROM Mark and BD+ are additionally used as content protection systems for BD format, which imposes certain restrictions including playback restrictions for BD-ROM Mark and/or BD+ protected contents. To obtain additional information on AACS, BD-ROM Mark,

BD+, or this product, please contact an authorized Customer Service Center.

•Many BD-ROM/DVD discs are encoded with copy protection. Because of this, you should only connect your player directly to your TV, not to a VCR. Connecting to a VCR results in a distorted picture from copy-protected discs.

•This product incorporates copyright protection technology that is protected by U.S. patents and other intellectual property rights. Use of this copyright protection technology must be authorized by Macrovision, and is intended for

home and other limited viewing uses only unless otherwise authorized by Macrovision. Reverse engineering or disassembly is prohibited.

•Under the U.S. Copyright laws and Copyright laws of other countries, unauthorized recording, use, display, distribution, or revision of television programmes, videotapes, BD-ROM discs, DVDs, CDs and other materials may subject you to civil and/or criminal liability.

Important Notice for TV Color system

The Color system of this player differs according to currently playing discs.

For example, when the player plays the disc recorded in the NTSC Color system, the image is outputted as a NTSC signal.

Only the multi system Color TV can receive all signals outputted from the player.

•If you have a PAL Color system TV, you will see just distorted images when using discs or video contents recorded in NTSC.

•The multi system Color TV changes the Color system automatically according to input signals. In case that the Color system is not changed automatically, turn it off and then on to see normal images on screen.

•Even if the disc recorded in NTSC Color system are well displayed on your TV, these may not be recorded correctly on your recorder.

AFront left speaker (L)/ BFront right speaker (R):

Place the front speakers to the sides of the monitor or screen and as fl ush with the screen surface as possible.

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 refl ections.
