Note about CD-R/CD-RW/DVD-R/DVD-RW/DVD+R/DVD+RW

In some cases, CD-R/CD-RW/DVD-R/DVD-RW/DVD+R/DVD+RW cannot be played on this system due to the recording quality or physical condition of the disc, or the characteristics of the recording device and authoring software. The disc will not play if it has not been correctly finalized. For more information, refer to the operating instructions for the recording device. Note that some playback functions may not work with some DVD+RWs/DVD+Rs, even if they have been correctly finalized. In this case, view the disc by normal playback. Also some DATA CDs/DATA DVDs created in Packet Write format cannot be played.
Music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies
This product is designed to play back discs that conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard. Recently, various music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies are marketed by some record companies. Please be aware that among those discs, there are some that do not conform to the CD standard and may not be playable by this product.
Note on DualDiscs
A DualDisc is a two sided disc product which mates DVD recorded material on one side with digital audio material on the other side. However, since the audio material side does not conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard, playback on this product is not guaranteed.

About Multi Session CD

• This system can play a Multi Session CD when an MP3 file is contained in the first session. Any subsequent MP3 files recorded in later sessions can also be played back.
• This system can play a Multi Session CD when a JPEG image file is contained in the first session. Any subsequent JPEG image files recorded in later sessions can also be played back.
• If MP3 files and JPEG image files in music CD format or video CD format are recorded in the first session, only the first session will be played back.

Region code

Your system has a region code printed on the rear of the unit and will only play a DVD labeled with the same region code.
A DVD VIDEO labeled will also play on this system. If you try to play any other DVD VIDEO, the message [Playback prohibited by area limitations.] will appear on the TV screen. Depending on the DVD VIDEO, no region code indication may be given even though playing the DVD VIDEO is prohibited by area restrictions.

Ti
• You can use the speaker without the speaker stand by installing it on the wall (page 18).
1 Thread the speaker cord through the hole in the base and post.
The connector and color tube of the speaker cords are the same color as the label of the jacks to be connected.
Use the speaker cords as follows:
• Front speaker (L): White
• Front speaker (R): Red
• Surround speaker (L): Blue
• Surround speaker (R): Gray
Be careful with the orientation of the post. Thread the speaker cord (and the speaker system cord) into the end of the post that has two holes.

Step 2: Positioning the System

p
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). However, this system allows you to place the center speaker up to 1.6 meters (5 ft) closer (B) and the surround speakers up to 5.0 meters (16 ft) closer (C) to the front speakers. The front speakers can be placed from 1.0 to 7.0 meters (3 to 23 ft) (A) from the listening position.
Getting Started
Place the system as illustrated below.

Note
• Do not set the speakers in an inclined position.
• Do not place the speakers in locations that are:
– Extremely hot or cold
– Dusty or dirty
– Very humid
– Subject to vibrations
– Subject to direct sunlight
• Use caution when placing the speakers and/or speaker stands attached to the speakers on a specially treated (waxed, oiled, polished, etc.) floor, as staining or discoloration may result.
• Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent such as alcohol or benzine.
• Do not lean or hang on the speaker, as the speaker may fall down.
Ti
• When you change the positions of the speakers, Sony recommends that you change the settings. For details, see “Getting Optimal Surround Sound f or a Room” (page 85) and “Calibr ating the Appropriate Settings Automatically ” (page 86).
