Precautions
If you cannot play back a disc which bears one of the marks above, check the following notes.
*1: This unit conforms to the NTSC color system. Discs recorded in other color systems such as PAL cannot be played back. *2: Certain DVD-Video discs do not operate as described in this manual due to the intentions of the discs producers. *3: Discs recorded in the VR (Video Recording) format cannot be played back. *4: Scratched or stained discs may not be played back. *5: Some discs cannot be played back because of incompatible recording conditions, characteristics of the recorder or spe-

Even if they are played back, the sound or video quality will be compromised.
*7: You may play back the unfinalized DVD-R/RW disc recorded in the video format on our brand’s DVD recorder. However,
depending on the recording status of a disc, the disc may not be played back at all or normally (the picture or sound may not be smooth, etc.). In this case, you need to finalize the disc with the DVD recorder. Refer to the manual accompanying the DVD recorder.
*8: Only the discs recorded in the video format and finalized can be played back.
Unfinalized discs cannot be played back. Depending on the recording status of a disc, the disc may not be played back at all or normally (the picture or sound may not be smooth, etc.).
*9:
If there is too much recording space left on a disc (the used portion is less than 55 mm across), it may not play back properly.
*10: Do not glue paper or put stickers on to the disc. These may damage the disc, and the unit may not read it correctly.
