where they exit from the apparatus.
11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer or sold with the
apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid
injury from tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any
way, such as the power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled on or objects have fallen into the
apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing, and no objects filled with liquids such as vases shall be
placed on the apparatus. Maintain well-ventilated conditions around the product. Do not place on a bed, sofa, or
anything that blocks ventilation.
Where the main plug is used as the disconnect device, the disconnect device shall remain readily operable.

FEATURES
This unit has many features, some are outlined below. Please read the owner’s manual to take full advantage of
all the features this unit has to offer.
•
•
BD-ROM Playback
BD-ROM is a next generation optical disc format in the HD era. Featuring massive storage capacity of 25 to
50 GB (five times larger than a DVD) and a high-speed transfer rate of up to 54 Mbps, this format offers not
†
only uncompromised HD quality video* , but also enables rich bonus content on a single disc and HD quality
audio up to 8ch, and interactive operability.
* A compatible HD display device is necessary to enjoy the same quality.
†
Some discs allow viewing only with an HDMI connection.
24p True Cinema
Movies shot with a film camera consist of 24 frames per second. Since conventional televisions (both CRT
and flat panels) display frames either at 1/60 or 1/50 second intervals, the 24 frames do not appear at an
even pace.
When connected to a TV with 24p capabilities, the player displays each frame at 1/24 second intervals —
the same interval originally shot with the film camera, thus faithfully reproducing the original cinema image.
•
•
BD-J application
The BD-ROM format supports Java for interactive functions. “BD-J” offers content providers almost unlimited
functionality when creating interactive BD-ROM titles. Java and all Java-based trademarks and logos are
trademarks or registered trademarks of Sun Microsystems, Inc. in the U.S. and other countries.
Support of uncompressed multi-channel Linear PCM
In combination with a compatible AV amplifier, the player can output up to 8ch Linear PCM surround sound.*
With a non-compatible amplifier, the player can output 5.1ch analog signals from its 5.1CH OUTPUT jack for
high quality audio enjoyment.
* Note that the DIGITAL OUTPUT (COAXIAL or OPTICAL) jack does not output 8ch signals. You will need
an HDMI cable and an HDMI compatible device that support 8ch signals.
•
•
Support of “Dolby TrueHD” and “DTS-HD” - 7.1 Channel Surround Sound
The player supports the bitstream output functionality of Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, and DTS-HD
High Resolution Audio bitstream via HDMI. It also supports the decoding functionality of Dolby TrueHD,
Dolby Digital Plus, and DTS-HD High Resolution Audio to multi-channel Linear PCM via HDMI.
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) digital interface
When connected to an HDMI-equipped display device using a single HDMI cord, the player can output both
SD to HD video and multi-channel audio signals, in digital form without degradation. The HDMI specification
supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), a copy protection technology that incorporates
coding technology for digital video signals.
•
Library function for recorded files (For JPEG image, MP3 audio and WMV9 files only)
With DATA-DVDs and DATA-CDs, three separate Audio/Video/Picture/All Title List-browsers allow for easy
sorting, searching and playback.

maintenance (cleaning or parts replacement) every 1,000
hours of use depending on the operating environment.
For details, contact your nearest dealer.
NOTES ON MOISTURE CONDENSATION:
Moisture condensation damages the player. Please
read the following carefully.
The top and rear panels of the player may become
warm after a long period of use. This is normal and
not a malfunction.

disc and turn off the power.
If you do not use the player for a long period, the unit
may not function properly in the future. Turn on and
use the player occasionally.

Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you
pour a cold drink into a glass on a warm day. Drops of
water form on the outside of the glass. In the same
way, moisture may condense on the optical pick-up
lens inside this unit, one of the most crucial internal
parts of the player.
Moisture condensation occurs during the following
cases:
NOTES ON LOCATING THE PLAYER:

When you bring the player directly from a cold place
to a warm place.
•
When you use the player in a room where you just
turned on the heater, or a place where the cold wind
