NOTE
✎
▪
Some commercial discs and DVD discs purchased
outside your region may not be playable with this
product. When these discs are played, either "This
disc can not be played." or "Cannot read this disc.
Please check the regional code of the disc." will be
displayed.
▪
Playback may not work for some types of discs, or
when specific operations, such as angle change and
aspect ratio adjustment, are being performed.
Information about the discs is written in detail on the
disc box. Please refer to this if necessary.
▪
Do not allow the disc to become dirty or scratched.
Fingerprints, dirt, dust, scratches or deposits of
cigarette smoke on the recording surface may make
it impossible to use the disc for playback.
▪
When a BD-J title is played, loading may take longer
than a normal title, or some functions may perform
slowly.
▪
This product may not respond to all operating
commands because some Blu-ray, DVD and CD
discs allow specific or limited operation and features
during playback.
Please note that this is not a defect in the product.
▪
Samsung cannot assure that this product will play
every disc bearing the Blu-ray Disc, DVD or CD logo
because disc formats evolve, and problems and
errors may occur during the creation of Blu-ray Disc,
DVD, CD software and/or the manufacture of discs.
Please contact the SAMSUNG customer care centre
if you have questions or encounter difficulty when
playing Blu-ray, DVD, or CD discs in this product.
Also, refer to rest of this user manual for additional
information on playback restrictions.
