• Be sure to remove the disc and turn off the Blu-ray
disc player after use.
• Disconnect the AC power cord from the AC outlet
when you donʼt intend to use the Blu-ray disc player
for long periods of time.
• Clean the disc by wiping in a straight line from the

because some BD, DVD or CD discs allow specific or
limited operation and features during playback. Please
note that this is not a defect in the player.
•We cannot assure that this player will play every disc
bearing the BD, DVD and CD logos because disc
formats may evolve, and problems and errors can occur
during the creation of BD, DVD and CD software and /
or the manufacture of discs. This player also operates
differently than a standard DVD Player or other AV equip-
ment.
Please refer to the rest of this Manual for additional infor-
mation on playback restrictions.
Notice for watching 3D video Images
• Some people may experience discomfort (such as
eye strain, fatigue, or nausea) while watching 3D

regular breaks while watching 3D video images.
• If you experience any discomfort, stop watching the
3D video images until the discomfort subsides.
Consult a doctor if you experience severe discomfort.
• Read the userʼs manuals (Blu-ray disc and TV)
and/or the caution messages that appear on the TV
carefully.
• The vision of young children (especially those under
six years old) is still under development. Consult
your doctor (such as a pediatrician or eye doctor)
before allowing young children to watch 3D video
images.
• Adults should supervise young children to ensure
they follow the recommendations described above.

Blu-ray disc Features
gIntroduction
Blu-ray Discs can store 25 GB (single layer) or 50 GB
(dual layer) on a single-sided disc - about 5 to 10 times
the capacity of DVD. As a result, Blu-ray Disc supports
the highest quality HD video available in the industry (up
to 1920 x 1080 at 40 Mbit/sec). Large capacity means
no compromise on video quality. Furthermore, a Blu-ray
Disc has the same familiar size and look as DVD, allow-
ing for compatibility with existing discs.
gCompatibility across full family
Users can play home-recorded discs on this Blu-ray
Disc Player; there are no playback compatibility issues
as with rewritable DVD formats. The Video Distribution
format was widely expanded to offer content producers a
full range of additional features unavailable in the home
recording format.
gVideo highlights
The BD-ROM format for movie distribution supports three
highly advanced video codecs, including AVC, VC-1 and
MPEG-2.
All consumer video resolutions are available:
- 1920 x 1080 HD (50i, 60i and 24p)
- 1280 x 720 HD (50p, 60p and 24p)
gAudio highlights
The BD-ROM format for movie distribution supports vari-
ous advanced audio codecs, so an author can choose
the most suitable for a particular application. The high
capacity and data rate of Blu-ray Disc allow for extreme
high quality audio in up to 8 channels to accompany
High Definition video. Final audio specifications include
DTS (DTS 5.1), Dolby Digital and LPCM (up to 96/24) .
Optionally.
gFor High-Definition Playback
To view high-definition contents in BD discs, an
HDTV (High Definition Television) is required. Some
discs may require using the playerʼs HDMI OUT to
view high-definition content. The ability to view
high-definition content on BD discs may be limited
depending on the resolution of your TV.
g“HDMV” mode
“HDMV” mode was designed to offer exciting new
features, while keeping the authoring process as simple
as possible. It streamlines the production of both Blu-
ray Disc as well as DVD-Video titles, as the production
process incorporates many identical phases. It offers
improved navigational and menu features, improved
graphics and animation, improved subtitling support and
new features like browsable slide shows.
Offers all features of DVD-Video and more. The author-
ing process is in line with DVD-Video creation
g“BD-J” mode
“BD-J” mode was designed to offer the content provider
almost unlimited functionality when creating interactive
titles. It is based on Java 2 Micro Edition, so program-
mers will quickly be familiar with the programming
environment for BD-J. Every Blu-ray Disc player will be
equipped with a Java interpreter, so that it is capable of
running discs authored in BD-J mode.
gGraphic planes
Two individual, full HD resolution (1920x1080) graph-
ics planes are available, on top of the HD video plane.
One plane is assigned to video-related, frame accurate
graphics (like subtitles), and the other plane is assigned
to interactive graphical elements, such as buttons or
menus. For both planes, various wipes, fades and scroll
effects are available, for example to present a menu.
gBD-LIVE
BD-LIVE is a newly developed Blu-ray feature that en-
ables you to access content via your internet-connected
Blu-ray player. BD-LIVE can allow you to download a
variety of up-to date content (e.g., refreshed previews,
ringtones, exclusive special features and events), and is
an entirely new experience for interactive content.

gUse
Disc Storage & Management
gDisc Handling
• Use discs with regular shapes. If an irregular disc
(a disc with a special shape) is used, this Blu-ray disc
player may be damaged.
• Avoid touching the surface of a disc where recording is
performed.
• Do not attach a bit of paper or sticky tape on it.
• If the player is not used for a long period of time, re-
move the Disc from the player and store it in its case.
• Be careful not to leave fingerprints or scratches on the
surface of the Disc, especially for the Blu-ray Disc.

• Do not write on the printed side with a ball-point pen or
pencil.
• Do not use scratch-proof protectors or covers.
• Do not use discs printed with label printers available
on the market.
• Do not load warped or cracked discs.

• Before using it, please rub it from center toward outside
with clean clothes.
• Do not use any type of solvent such as thinner, benzol
(benzene), commercial cleaning goods or antistatic sprays.

Be careful not to harm the disc because the data on
these discs is highly vulnerable to the environment.
• Do not keep under direct sunlight.
• Keep in a cool ventilated area.
• Store vertically.
• Keep in a clean protection jacket.
• If you move your Blu-ray disc player suddenly from a
cold place to a warm place, condensation may generate
on the operating parts and lens and cause abnormal disc
playback. If this occurs, do not connect the plug to the
power outlet and wait for two hours. Then insert the disc
