Notes on copyright
Audio/video files that you create or reproduce
yourself for playback are generally subject to
copyright protection.
In many countries, reproductions, even for pri-
vate use, are not permitted without the prior
consent of the copyright holder.
Make sure that you know about the applicable
copyright regulations and that you comply with
these.
Notes on CDs/DVDs
!The drive is designed to accept discs which
correspond to the EN 60908 norm. You can
therefore only use discs with a maximum
thickness of 1.3 mm.
If you insert thicker discs, e.g. those that con-
tain data on both sides (DVD on one side and
audio data on the other), they cannot be ejec- ted and can damage the device.
Use round discs with a diameter of 12 cm. Do
not use discs with a diameter of 8 cm, even if
used in conjunction with an adapter.
Discs with copy protection are not compatible
with the audio CD standard and therefore may
not be able to be played.
Playback problems may occur when playing
copied discs.
There may be playback problems if you play CDs that you have copied yourself with a storage
capacity of more than 700 MB.
