DVDs are recorded using different colour systems
throughout the world. The most common colour
system, used primarily in the U.K. and other EU
countries, is PAL.
This unit uses the PAL system. However, it is also

This unit has been designed to play DVD

regions or for region 2 in order to play on the

labelled for other regions. Look for the
symbols on the right on your DVD. If these
region symbols do not appear on your DVD,
you cannot play back the DVD in this unit.

menu screens. Refer to the information
accompanying the Video CD.
Ver.1.1 (without PBC function): You can still enjoy
playback of pictures and music from the CD.
Ver.2.0 (with PBC function): “Pbc” will appear on the
screen and display when playing back a Video CD
with the PBC function.

Hint

• When playing back Video CDs with the PBC

function, “Pbc” is displayed instead of the playing
back time and current track indications on the front
panel display.
