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.

yFurthermore, 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 Centre.

yMany 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.

yThis 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 Rovi, and is intended for home and other limited viewing uses only unless otherwise authorized by Rovi.

Caution

yBe careful to make sure children not to put

their hands or any objects into the *speaker duct. *Speaker duct: A hole for plentiful bass sound on speaker cabinet (enclosure).

yPlace the center speaker at a safe distance

from the child’s reach. Otherwise it may result in the speaker falling down and causing personal injury and/or property damage.

yThe speakers contain magnetic parts, so

colour irregularity may occur on the CRT TV screen or PC monitor screen. Please use the speakers away from the TV screen or PC monitor screen.

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.

Center speaker:

Place the center 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 center of the room to reduce the wall reections.
