Do not attach any seal or label to either side (the labeled side or the recorded side) of a disc.

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

BD-ROM Disc Features
BD-ROM Discs can store 25 GB (single layer) or 50 GB (dual layer) on a single sided disc - about 5 to 10 times the capacity of a DVD.
BD-ROM Discs also support the highest quality HD video available in the industry (up to 1920 x 1080) - Large capacity means no compromise on video quality. Furthermore, a BD-ROM disc has the same familiar size and look as DVD.
The following BD-ROM disc features are disc dependent and will vary.
Appearance and navigation of features will also vary from disc to disc.
Not all discs will have the features described below.
BD-ROM, Hybrid disc have both BD-ROM and DVD (or CD) layers on one side. On such discs, BD-ROM layer will be only played back in this player.
Video highlights
The BD-ROM format for movie distribution supports three highly advanced video codecs, including MPEG-2, MPEG4 AVC (H.264), and SMPTE VC1. HD video resolutions are also available:
1920 x 1080 HD
1280 x 720 HD
Graphic planes
Two individual, full HD resolution (1920x1080) graphic planes (layers) are available, on top of the HD video layer. One plane is assigned to videorelated, frame accurate graphics (like subtitles), and the other plane is assigned to interactive graphic elements, such as buttons or menus.

Assembling the Rear Speakers
Before connecting the rear speakers, assemble the rear speakers.
a Fix the post to the rear speaker by rotating the post.
b Fix the rear speaker to the floor base by rotating the post.
cConnect the connector cable between the rear speaker and the floor base.
Positioning the System
The following illustration shows an example of positioning the system.
Note that the illustrations in these instructions differ 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 (A).
To prevent injury, install the speakers in a horizontal position only, as the speaker may fall down.
AWireless front left speaker/ B Wireless front right speaker:
Place the front speakers to the sides of the monitor or screen and as flush with the screen surface as possible.
CRear left speaker/ D Rear right speaker:
Place these speakers behind your listening position, facing slightly inwards. Connect the wireless receiver E and the rear speaker (right, left) with the speaker cables.
FWireless 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 reflections.

bConnect the AC power cords.
1)Connect the AC power dords to the AC~ connector on the back of the wireless front left and right speakers.
Connect the other end to a wall outlet.
2)Connect the AC power cord to the AC connector on the bottom of the wireless subwoofer.
Connect the other end to a wall outlet.
3)Connect the AC power cord of the wireless receiver to a wall outlet.
cPress 1 (or 1/})
• After the wireless light is flashing blue about a few seconds, the system will automatically establish a wireless link.
• When the wireless link is established, the wireless light of the wireless front left speaker is off and the wireless lights of the wireless subwoofer and the wireless receiver are solidly on blue.
• When the system is turned off, the wireless lights will turn red.
Resetting the wireless link
If an interference occurs or you replace any part of the system, the wireless link should be set again.
aDisconnect the power cord from the wall outlet on the wireless front left speaker, the wireless subwoofer, and the wireless receiver.
bPress and hold the x button on the wireless front right speaker and the MUTE button on the remote control simultaneously.
• The unit will display “REMATE”.
cReconnect the power cord to the wall outlet on the wireless front left speaker, the wireless subwoofer, and the wireless receiver.
Be careful of the following
•If there is a strong electromagnetic wave product nearby, interference may occur. Put the system away from there.
(Ex: Microwave oven)
•Be careful to make sure children do not put their hands or any objects into the *speaker duct.
*Speaker duct: A hole to allow for plentiful bass sound on speaker cabinet (enclosure).
•Set the distance of each system within 10m.
•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.
•The speakers contain magnet parts, so color irregularity may occur on the TV screen or PC monitor screen. Please use the speakers away from the TV screen or PC monitor screen.
