Safety Precautions (Continued)  
On adjusting volume  
Precautions  
Do not turn up the volume while listening to a section  
with very low level inputs or no audio signals. If you do,  
the speakers may be damaged when a peak level sec-  
tion is played.  
On safety  
• Caution – The use of optical instruments with this  
product will increase eye hazard.  
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet,  
unplug the player and have it checked by qualified  
personnel before operating it any further.  
On cleaning  
Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a soft cloth  
slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not  
use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or sol-  
vent such as alcohol or benzine.  
On power sources  
• The player is not disconnected from the AC power  
source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall  
outlet, even if the player itself has been turned off.  
• If you are not going to use the player for a long time,  
be sure to disconnect the player from the wall outlet.  
To disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead), grasp  
the plug itself; never pull the cord.  
On cleaning discs  
Do not use a commercially available cleaning disc. It  
may cause a malfunction.  
IMPORTANT NOTICE  
On placement  
Caution: This player is capable of holding a still video  
image or on-screen display image on your television  
screen indefinitely. If you leave the still video image or  
on-screen display image displayed on your TV for an  
extended period of time you risk permanent damage  
to your television screen. Plasma Display Panel tele-  
visions and projection televisions are susceptible to  
this.  
• Place the player in a location with adequate ventila-  
tion to prevent heat build-up in the player.  
• Do not place the player on a soft surface such as a  
rug that might block the ventilation holes.  
• Do not place the player in a location near heat  
sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,  
excessive dust, or mechanical shock.  
• Do not install the appliance in a confined space, such  
as a bookcase or built-in cabinet.  
If you have any questions or problems concerning your  
player, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.  
On operation  
• If the player 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 player. Should  
this occur, the player may not operate properly. In this  
case, remove the disc and leave the player turned on  
for about half an hour until the moisture evaporates.  
• When you move the player, take out any discs. If you  
don’t, the disc may be damaged.

In addition, this unit can play a DVD-R, DVD RW,  
SVCD, and CD-R or CD-RW that contains audio titles,  
MP3 or JPEG files.  
Notes  
Track (Video CD and audio CD only)  
Depending on the conditions of the recording equip-  
ment or the CD-R/RW (or DVD-R/ RW) disc itself,  
some CD-R/RW (or DVD-R/ RW) discs cannot be  
played on the unit.  
Sections of a picture or a musical piece on a video CD  
or an audio CD. Each track is assigned a track number,  
enabling you to locate the track you want.  
Do not attach any seal or label to either side (the  
labeled side or the recorded side) of a disc.  
Scene  
On a video CD with PBC (Playback control) functions,  
moving pictures and still pictures are divided into sec-  
tions called “Scenes”. Each scene is displayed in the  
menu screen and assigned a scene number, enabling  
you to locate the scene you want.  
Do not use irregularly shaped CDs (e.g., heart-shaped  
or octagonal). It may result in malfunctions.  
Notes on DVDs and Video CDs  
Some playback operations of DVDs and Video CDs  
may be intentionally fixed by software manufacturers.  
As this unit plays DVDs and Video CDs according to  
disc content designed by the software manufacturer,  
some playback features of the unit may not be available  
or other functions may be added.  
A scene is composed of one or several tracks.  
Refer also to the instructions supplied with the DVDs  
and Video CDs. Some DVDs made for business pur-  
poses may not be played on the unit.  
Regional code of the DVD player and DVDs  
This DVD player is designed and manufactured  
for playback of region “2” encoded DVD soft-  
ware. The region code on the labels of some  
2
DVD discs indicates which type of player can play those  
discs. This unit can play only DVD discs labeled “2” or  
“ALL”. If you try to play any other discs, the message  
“Check Regional Code” will appear on the TV screen.  
Some DVD discs may not have a region code label even  
though their playback is prohibited by area limits.

Before Use (Continued)  
Storing discs  
Precautions  
After playing, store the disc in its case.  
Handling the unit  
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of  
heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct sun-  
light, as there may be a considerable temperature  
increase inside the car.  
When shipping the unit  
The original shipping carton and packing materials  
come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the  
unit as it was originally packed at the factory.  
Cleaning discs  
When setting up the unit  
Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor pic-  
ture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean  
the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the cen-  
ter out.  
The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR, or radio  
may be distorted during playback. In this case, position  
the unit away from the TV, VCR, or radio, or turn off the  
unit after removing the disc.  
To keep the exterior surfaces clean  
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray,  
near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in  
contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will  
leave marks on the surface.  
Cleaning the unit  
Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine,  
thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static  
spray intended for older vinyl records.  
To clean the cabinet  
Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty,  
use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent  
solution. Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol,  
benzine, or thinner, as these might damage the surface  
of the unit.  
About Symbols

Digital Multi-channel sound  
A digital multi-channel connection provides the best  
sound quality. For this you need a multi-channel  
Audio/Video receiver that supports one or more of the  
audio formats supported by your DVD Player (MPEG 2,  
Dolby Digital and DTS). Check the receiver manual and  
the logos on the front of the receiver.  
Due to the DTS Licensing agreement, the digital output  
will be in DTS digital out when DTS audio stream is  
selected.  
Notes  
If the audio format of the digital output does not match  
the capabilities of your receiver, the receiver will  
produce a strong, distorted sound or no sound at all.  
Six Channel Digital Surround Sound via digital con-  
nection can only be obtained if your receiver is  
equipped with a Digital Multi-channel decoder.
