user’s responsibility.
CAUTION

Drive Utility Disc” (included).

Region Code Setting
DVD-Videos are allocated to region codes according to where they are sold. To play a
DVD-Video, the player’s software and the drive must have the corresponding region code.
e.g.,
For U.S.A. and Canada: “1”
For Europe: “2”
The region code of the drive is not set at purchase. The operation depends on the DVD-
Video that is rst played.
• DVD-Video with a specic region code:
The drive will automatically be set at the same region code as the DVD-Video.
• DVD-Video with multiple region codes:
[Conrm Region] appears. Select the region code and click [OK]. Play now begins.
