other discomforts. If you experience any of these symptoms, stop
watching and take a break for at least thirty minutes before resuming.
If the symptoms are severe or continue even after you have stopped
watching 3D content, consult a physician.
Take care to monitor children’s watching of 3D content. Children
(including teenagers) may be more at risk of experiencing discomfort

children’s 3D content viewing and watch for signs of discomfort.
Some viewers may be susceptible to epileptic seizures or strokes
when viewing 3D images, even if those conditions have not been
previously diagnosed. If you or anyone in your family has a history
of seizures or strokes, or if you have any other reason to think you
or someone under your supervision may be susceptible to epileptic
seizures or strokes, consult a physician before watching 3D content.
Even if you do not experience any of the above symptions, take
regular breaks from watching 3D content.

Notice:
Because AACS (Advanced Access Content System) is approved as content
protection system for BD format, similar to use of CSS (Content Scramble
System) for DVD format, certain restrictions are imposed on playback, analog
signal output, etc., of AACS protected contents. The operation of this product
and restrictions on this product may vary depending on your time of purchase as
those restrictions may be adopted and/or changed by AACS after the production
of this product. Furthermore, BD-ROM Mark and BD+ are additionally used as
content protection systems for BD format, which imposes certain restrictions
including playback restrictions for BD-ROM Mark and/or BD+ protected contents.
To obtain additional information on AACS, BD-ROM Mark, BD+, or this product,
please contact an authorized Customer Service Center.
1. The changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
2. Shielded interface cables and AC power cord, if any, must be used in order
to comply with the emission limits.
3. The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or TV interference caused
by unauthorized modification to this equipment. It is the responsibilities of
the user to correct such interference.
Many BD-ROM/DVD discs are encoded with copy protection. Because of this,
you should only connect your player directly to your TV, not to a VCR. Connecting
to a VCR results in a distorted picture from copy-protected discs.
