Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit 
you’ve just purchased is only the start of your 
musical enjoyment.  Now it’s time to consider 
how you can maximize the fun and excitement 
your equipment offers. This manufacturer and 
the Electronic Industries Association’s 
Consumer Electronics Group want you to get 
the most out of your equipment by playing it at a 
safe level. One that lets the sound come 
through loud and clear without annoying blaring 
or distortion—and, most importantly, without 
affecting your sensitive hearing. We recommend that you avoid prolonged 
exposure to excessive noise.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your 
hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher 
volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal” 
can actually be loud and harmful to your 
hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at 
a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
≥
Start your volume control at a low setting.
≥ Slowly increase the sound until you can hear 
it comfortably and clearly, and without 
distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable 
sound level:
≥ Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to 
prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. 
After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.

∫Tips for making data discs
≥When there are more than 8 groups, the eighth group onwards will be displayed on one vertical line in the menu screen.
≥ There may be differences in the display order on the menu screen and computer screen.
≥ This unit cannot play files recorded using packet write.
Naming folders and files
(Files are treated as contents and 
folders are treated as groups on this 
unit.)
At the time of recording, prefix folder and 
file names. This should be with numbers 
that have an equal number of digits, and 
should be done in the order you want to 
play them (this may not work at times). DVD-RAM
≥
Discs must conform to UDF 2.0.
DVD-R/RW
≥ Discs must conform to UDF bridge (UDF 1.02/ISO9660).
≥ This unit does not support multi-se ssion. Only the default session is 
played.
CD-R/RW
≥ Discs must conform to ISO9660 level 1 or 2 (except for extended 
formats).
≥ This unit supports multi-session but  if there are many sessions it takes 
more time for play to start. Keep the number of sessions to a minimum 
to avoid this.
∫ To clean discs
Wipe with a damp cloth and then wipe dry.
∫Clean this unit with a soft, dry cloth.
≥Never use alcohol, paint thinner or benzine to clean this unit.
≥ Before using chemically treated cloth,  carefully read the instructions that 
came with the cloth.
Do not use commercially available lens cleaners as they may cause 
malfunction.  Cleaning of the lens is generally not necessary although 
this depends on the operating environment.

Regarding DVD-AudioSome 5.1 channel DVD-Audio will prevent down-mixing ( ➜page 37, Glossary) of all or part of their contents if this is the manufacturer’s intention. 
When playing such discs, or such parts of the disc, unless the num ber of connected speakers is the same as the disc’s channel specification, audio 
will not be output properly (e.g., part of the audio is missing, 5. 1 channel sound cannot be selected and audio is played in two channels). Refer to the 
disc’s jacket for more information.
Maintenance
DO DO NOT
Before moving the unit, ensure the disc tray is empty. 
Failure to 
do so will risk severely damaging the disc and the unit.
