NOTE

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.

Depending on the recording software & the  nalization, some recorded discs (CD-R/RW, DVD±R/RW, BD-R/RE) may not be playable.

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.

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.)

This player requires discs and recordings to meet certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal playback quality.

Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically set to these standards. There are many di erent types of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3 or WMA  les) and these require certain pre-existing conditions to ensure compatible playback.

Customers should note that permission is required in order to download MP3 / WMA  les and music from the Internet. Our company has no right to grant such permission. Permission should always be sought from the copyright owner.

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)

Installation

Positioning the system

The following illustration shows an example of positioning the system. Note that the illustrations in these instructions di er from the actual unit for explanation purposes. For the best possible surround sound, all the speakers other than the subwoofer should be placed at the same distance from the listening position (

Front left speaker (L)/ Front right speaker (R):

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

Centre speaker:

Place the centre speaker above or below the monitor or screen.

Surround left speaker (L)/ Surround right speaker (R):

Place these speakers behind your listening position, facing slightly inwards.

Subwoofer:

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 centre of the room to reduce the wall re ections.
