Precautions
On placement
• Place the unit in a location with 
adequate ventilation to prevent heat 
build-up in the unit.
• Do not place the unit on a soft surface 
such as a rug that might block the 
ventilation holes.
• Do not place the unit and AC adapter 
in a location near heat sources, or in a 
place subject to direct sunlight, 
excessive dust, or mechanical shock.
• Do not place the unit outdoors, in 
vehicles, on ships, or on other vessels.
• If the unit is brought directly from a 
cold to a warm location, or is placed in 
a very damp room, moisture may 
condense on the lenses inside the 
unit. Should this occur, the unit may 
not operate properly. In this case, 
remove the disc and leave the unit 
turned on for about half an hour until 
the moisture evaporates.
• Do not install the unit in an inclined 
position. It is designed to be operated 
in a horizontal position only.
• Do not place metal objects in front or 
on the left side of the unit. It may limit 
reception of radio waves.
• Do not place the unit in a place where 
medical equipment is in use. It may 
cause a malfunction of medical 
instruments.
• If you use a pacemaker or other 
medical device, consult your 
physician or the manufacturer of your 
medical device before using the 
wireless LAN function.
• Do not place heavy or unstable 
objects on the unit.
• Do not insert any objects other than 
discs inside the disc slot. Doing so 
may cause damage to the unit or the 
object.
• Take out any discs when you move the 
unit. If you don’t, the disc may be 
damaged.
• Disconnect the AC power cord and all 
other cables from the unit when you 
move the unit.

Note on Discs
This unit is designed to playback 
discs that conform to the Compact 
Disc (CD) standard. DualDiscs and 
some of the music discs encoded 
with copyright protection 
technologies do not conform to the 
Compact Disc (CD) standard, 
therefore, these discs may not be 
playable by this unit.
Note on playback operations of BDs/
DVDs
Some playback operations of BDs/
DVDs may be intentionally set by 
software producers. Since this unit 
plays BDs/DVDs according to the 
disc contents the software producers 
designed, some playback features 
may not be available.
Note about double-layer BDs/DVDs
The playback pictures and sound 
may be momentarily interrupted 
when the layers switch.
Region code (BD-ROM/DVD VIDEO 
only)
Your unit has a region code printed 
on the bottom of the unit and will only 
play BD-ROMs/DVD-ROMs labeled 
with identical region codes or  .
About wireless LAN security
Since communication via the wireless 
LAN function is established by radio 
waves, the wireless signal may be 
susceptible to interception. To 
protect wireless communication, this 
unit supports various security 
functions. Be sure to correctly 
configure the security settings in 
accordance with your network 
environment.
No Security
Although you can easily make 
settings, anyone can intercept 
wireless communication or intrude 
into your wireless network, even 
without any sophisticated tools. Keep 
in mind that there is a risk of 
unauthorized access or interception 
of data.
WEP
WEP applies security to 
communications to prevent outsiders 
from intercepting communications or 
intruding into your wireless network. 
WEP is a legacy security technology 
that enables older devices, which do 
not support TKIP/AES, to be 
connected.
WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA2-PSK (TKIP)
TKIP is a security technology 
developed to correct for the 
deficiencies of WEP. TKIP assures a 
higher security level than WEP.
WPA-PSK (AES), WPA2-PSK (AES)
AES is a security technology that 
uses an advanced security method 
that is distinct from WEP and TKIP.
AES assures a higher security level 
than WEP or TKIP.
