Notes on discs

This product is designed to playback discs that conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard. DualDiscs and some music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies do not conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard, therefore, these discs may not be compatible with this product.

Example of discs that the system cannot play

The system cannot play the following discs:

• CD-ROM/CD-R/CD-RW other than those recorded in the formats listed on page 5

• CD-ROM recorded in PHOTO CD format

• Data part of CD-Extra

Notes 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.

Notes 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.

• 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.

• 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.

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.

ALL

Notes about playback operations of a DVD or VIDEO CD

Some playback operations on a DVD or VIDEO CD may be intentionally set by software producers. Since this system will play a DVD or VIDEO CD according to the disc contents the software producers designed, some playback features may not be available. Be sure to read the operating instructions of the DVD or VIDEO CD.

Notes about playable files

• The system can recognize up to 200 folders, including albums (folders) that do not contain audio files, JPEG image files, or video files. When more than 200 folders are on the DATA CD/DATA DVD/ USB device or more than 150 files are in a folder, folders/files that are recognized by the system differ depending on the folder configuration.

• The system can play the following files.

File Extension of the file

MP3 file “.mp3”

WMA file* “.wma”

AAC file* “.m4a”

JPEG image file “.jpg” or “.jpeg”

DivX video file “.avi” or “.divx”

MPEG4 video file “.mp4” or “.m4v”

* USB device only.

The system will attempt to play any data with the extensions above, even if it is not in MP3/WMA/ AAC/JPEG/DivX/MPEG4 format. Playing this data may generate a loud noise which could damage your speaker system.

• The following can increase the time it takes to start playback:

– when a DATA CD/DATA DVD/USB device is recorded with a complicated tree structure.

– when the audio files, JPEG image files, or video files in another folder have just been played.

• Some files on DATA CDs/DATA DVDs/USB devices cannot be played by the system depending on the file format.

• The system can play to a depth of 8 folders only.

• The system may not be able to play an audio file, JPEG image file, or video file depending on the file type.

• Files recorded by a device such as a computer may not be played in the order in which they were recorded.

• Folders that have no audio files, JPEG image files, or video files are skipped.

• Compatibility with all MP3/WMA/AAC encoding/writing software, recording devices, and recording media cannot be guaranteed.

• Compatibility with all MPEG4 video encoding/writing software, recording devices, and recording media cannot be guaranteed.

• The playback order may not be applicable depending on the software used for creating the audio file, JPEG image file, or video file, or if there are more than 200 folders or 150 files in each folder.

Note

• 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.

Assembling the speakers

(DAV-DZ310/DAV-DZ610/DAV-DZ810 only)

For assembling the speakers refer to “Speaker Installation Guide” (supplement).

When installing the speakers on a wall

Caution

• Contact a screw shop or installer for information regarding the wall material or screws to be used.

• Use screws that are suitable for the wall material and strength. As a plaster board wall is especially fragile, attach the screws securely to a beam. Install the speakers on a vertical and flat wall where reinforcement is applied.

• Sony is not responsible for accidents or damage caused by improper installation, insufficient wall strength or improper screw installation, natural calamity, etc.
