DualDiscs

DualDiscs are two-sided discs that have a recordable
CD for audio on one side and a recordable DVD for
video on the other.
Since the CD side of DualDiscs is not physically com­patible with the general CD standard, it may not be
possible to play the CD side with this unit.
Frequent loading and ejecting of a DualDisc may re­sult in scratches on the disc. Serious scratches can
lead to playback problems on this unit. In some
cases, a DualDisc may become stuck in the disc load­ing slot and will not eject. To prevent this, we recom­mend you refrain from using DualDisc with this unit.
Please refer to the information from the disc manu­facturer for more detailed information about
DualDiscs.
