Information for the DVD-ROM & CD-R/RW Drive
Before using the DVD-ROM & CD-R/RW drive for the first time, remove the protective
sheet from the lens area. The protective sheet inside the drive delays the opening of
the drive by about ten seconds. This delay is not a problem.
Refer to the included manual of DVD-ROM playback software.
The region code has been set to the following:
<For U.S.A. and Canada> Set to "1"
<For Europe>
Use of another region code or alteration of the region code invalidates the warranty.
For more information, contact Panasonic Technical Support.
If commercially available DVD playback software asks you the region code, set to the
following:
<For U.S.A. and Canada> Set to "1"
<For Europe>
If you are using CD-R or CD-RW discs, read the descriptions written on the packages
of the discs.
CD-RW discs cannot be read with a drive* unable to accommodate CD-RW discs.
* Consult with the manufacturer of the drive.
<When writing to CD-R/RW discs>
Using the CD-ROM of the CD-ROM writer software (included), install the application
software on your computer. For information on how to install the software, refer to the
included manual of the CD-ROM writer software.
Be sure to use discs conforming to the proper write speeds.
CD-R write speed

speed
If the write operation is to involve a long period of time, be sure to connect the AC
adaptor. If the battery power runs low and the power of the computer is cut, the write
operation may end in failure.
Depending on the disc, the quality of the write operation may not be so good. We
recommend using any of the following discs.
