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.
