Dual Discs
!Dual Discs are two-sided discs that have a
recordable CD for audio on one side and a
recordable DVD for video on the other.
!Since the CD side of Dual Discs is not phy-
sically compatible with the general CD
standard, it may not be possible to play the
CD side with this unit.
!Frequent loading and ejecting of a Dual
Disc may result in scratches on the disc.
Serious scratches can lead to playback pro-
blems on this unit. In some cases, a Dual
Disc may become stuck in the disc loading
slot and will not eject. To prevent this, we
recommend you refrain from using Dual
Disc with this unit.
!Please refer to the information from the
disc manufacturer for more detailed infor-
mation about Dual Discs.
