digital audio on the other side. The digital audio side does not generally 

meet the technical specifications of the Compact Disc Digital Audio (CD-DA) 

format so playback is not guaranteed.

•  Audio discs with copy-protection may not be playable.

BD-ROM compatibility

Since the Blu-ray Disc specifications are new and evolving, some discs may 

not play properly depending on the disc type, version and encoding. It is 

possible that a Blu-ray disc manufactured after the player was manufactured 

uses certain new features of the Blu-ray Disc specifications. To ensure the 

best possible viewing experience, the player may need a firmware or software 

update from time to time.

Disc care and handling

To keep the disc clean from scratches or fingerprints, handle the disc by its 

edge. Do not touch the recording surface.
Blu-ray Discs record data in very high density and the record layer is very 

close to the disc surface. For this reason, Blu-ray Discs are more sensitive 

to dust and fingerprints than DVD. Should you encounter playback problems 

and see dirty spots on the disc surface, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth. 

Wipe the disc from the Center out along the radial direction. Do not wipe the 

disc in a circular motion.
Do not use record cleaning sprays or solvents such as benzene, thinner and 

anti-static spray.
Do not attach labels or stickers to discs as this may cause the disc to warp, 

become imbalanced or too thick, resulting in playback problems.
Avoid exposing the discs to direct sunlight or heat sources.
Do not use the following discs:
–  Discs with exposed adhesive from removed stickers or labels. The disc may 

get stuck inside the player.

– Warped or cracked discs.
– Irregularly shaped discs, such as heart or business card shapes.
