ing on the application settings and the environment. Record with the correct
format. (For details, contact the appropriate application manufacturers of the

temperatures or other storage conditions . The unit may be unable to play dam-
aged discs.

Density CD) system.
CAUTION
■DVD video precaution
Conversational speech on some DVDs is recorded at a low volume to emphasize
the impact of sound effects. If you adjust the volume assuming that the conversa-
tions represent the maximum volume level that the DVD will play, you may be star-
tled by louder sound effects or when you change to a different audio source.
Loud sounds may have a significant impact on the human body or pose a driving
hazard. Keep this in mind when you adjust the volume.
