FEATURES
This unit has many features, some are outlined below. Please read the owner’s manual to take full advantage of
all the features this unit has to offer.
• BD-ROM Playback
BD-ROM is a next generation optical disc format in the HD era. Featuring massive storage capacity of 25 to
50 GB (five times larger than a DVD) and a high-speed transfer rate of up to 54 Mbps, this format offers not
only uncompromised HD quality video*
audio up to 8ch, and interactive operability.
* A compatible HD display device is necessary to enjoy the same quality.
†
Some discs allow viewing only with an HDMI connection.
• 24p True Cinema
Movies shot with a film camera consist of 24 frames per second. Since conventional televisions (both CRT
and flat panels) display frames either at 1/60 or 1/50 second intervals, the 24 frames do not appear at an
even pace.
When connected to a TV with 24p capabilities, the player displays each frame at 1/24 second intervals —
the same interval originally shot with the film camera, thus faithfully reproducing the original cinema image.
• BD-J application
The BD-ROM format supports Java for interactive functions. “BD-J” offers content providers almost unlimited
functionality when creating interactive BD-ROM titles. Java and all Java-based trademarks and logos are
trademarks or registered trademarks of Sun Microsystems, Inc. in the U.S. and other countries.
†
, but also enables rich bonus content on a single disc and HD quality
• Support of uncompressed multi-channel Linear PCM
In combination with a compatible AV amplifier, the player can output up to 8ch Linear PCM surround sound.*
With a non-compatible amplifier, the player can output 5.1ch analog signals from its 5.1CH OUTPUT jack for
high quality audio enjoyment.
* Note that the DIGITAL OUTPUT (COAXIAL or OPTICAL) jack does not output 8ch signals. You will need
an HDMI cable and an HDMI compatible device that support 8ch signals.
• Support of “Dolby TrueHD” and “DTS-HD” - 7.1 Channel Surround Sound
The player supports the bitstream output functionality of Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, and DTS-HD
High Resolution Audio bitstream via HDMI. It also supports the decoding functionality of Dolby TrueHD,
Dolby Digital Plus, and DTS-HD High Resolution Audio to multi-channel Linear PCM via HDMI.
• HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) digital interface
When connected to an HDMI-equipped display device using a single HDMI cord, the player can output both
SD to HD video and multi-channel audio signals, in digital form without degradation. The HDMI specification
supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), a copy protection technology that incorporates
coding technology for digital video signals.
• Library function for recorded files (For JPEG image, MP3 audio and WMV9 files only)
With DATA-DVDs and DATA-CDs, three separate Audio/Video/Picture/All Title List-browsers allow for easy
sorting, searching and playback.

NOTES ON HANDLING:
• When shipping the player, always use the original
shipping carton and packing materials. For maximum
protection, repack the unit as it was originally packed
at the factory.
• Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near
the player. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in
contact with the player for a long time. They will leave
marks on the finish.
• The top and rear panels of the player may become
warm after a long period of use. This is normal and
not a malfunction.
• When the player is not in use, be sure to remove the
disc and turn off the power.
• If you do not use the player for a long period, the unit
may not function properly in the future. Turn on and
use the player occasionally.
NOTES ON LOCATING THE PLAYER:
• When you place this player near a TV, radio or VCR,
the playback picture may become poor and the sound
may be distorted. In this case, move the player away
from the TV, radio or VCR.
NOTES ON CLEANING:
Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.
• For stubborn dirt, soak the cloth in a weak detergent
solution, wring well and wipe. Use a dry cloth to wipe
it dry. Do not use any type of solvent, such as thinner
or benzene, as it may damage the surface of the
player.
• If you use a chemical-saturated cloth to clean the unit,
follow that product’s instructions.
Warning: Cleaning and adjustment of lenses and/or
other components of playback mechanism should be
performed by a qualified service technician.
TO OBTAIN A CLEAR PICTURE:
The player is a high technology, precision device. If the
optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn
down, the picture quality becomes poor. To obtain a clear
picture, we recommend regular inspection and
maintenance (cleaning or parts replacement) every 1,000
hours of use depending on the operating environment.
For details, contact your nearest dealer.
NOTES ON MOISTURE CONDENSATION:
Moisture condensation damages the player. Please
read the following carefully.
• Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you
pour a cold drink into a glass on a warm day. Drops of
water form on the outside of the glass. In the same
way, moisture may condense on the optical pick-up
lens inside this unit, one of the most crucial internal
parts of the player.
Moisture condensation occurs during the following
cases:
• When you bring the player directly from a cold place
to a warm place.
• When you use the player in a room where you just
turned on the heater, or a place where the cold wind
from the air conditioner directly hits the unit.
• In summer, when you use the player in a hot and
humid place just after you moved the unit from an air
conditioned room.
• When you use the player in a humid place.
Do not use the player when moisture condensation
may occur.
• If you use the player in such a situation, it may
damage discs and internal parts. Remove the disc,
connect the power cord of the player to the wall outlet,
turn on the player and leave it “ON” for two or three
hours. After two or three hours, the player will have
warmed up and evaporated any moisture. Keep the
player connected to the wall outlet and moisture
condensation will seldom occur.
POWER SOURCE
Insert the AC plug (with the 2 blades) into a conveniently located AC outlet having 120V,
60Hz.
NOTE: The AC plug supplied with the unit is polarized to help minimize the possibility of
electric shock. If the AC plug does not fit into a nonpolarized AC outlet, do not file or cut
the wide blade. It is the user’s responsibility to have an electrician replace the obsolete
outlet.
