Copy Protection

• Because AACs (Advanced Access Content System) is approved as content protection system for Blu-ray Disc format, similar to use of CSS (Content Scramble System) for DVD format, certain restrictions are imposed on playback, analogue 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 system for Blu-ray Disc 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 SAMSUNG customer care centre.

• Many Blu-ray Disc/DVDs are encoded with copy protection. Because of this, you should only connect your Product directly to your TV, not to a VCR. Connecting to a VCR results in a distorted picture from copy-protected Blu-ray Disc/DVDs.

• Under the U.S. Copyright laws and Copyright laws of other countries, unauthorized recording, use, display, distribution, or revision of television programmes, videotapes, Blu-ray Discs, DVDs, and other materials may subject you to civil and/or criminal liability.

IMPORTANT NOTE

The mains lead on this equipment is supplied with a molded plug incorporating a fuse. The value of the fuse is indicated on the pin face of the plug. If it requires replacing, a fuse approved to BS1362 of the same rating must be used.

Never use the plug with the fuse cover omitted if the cover is detachable. If a replacement fuse cover is required, it must be of the same colour as the pin face of the plug. Replacement covers are available from your dealer.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for the power points in your house or the cable is not long enough to reach a power point, you should obtain a suitable safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer for assistance.

However, if there is no alternative to cutting off the plug, remove the fuse and then safely dispose of the plug. Do not connect the plug to a mains jack, as there is a risk of shock hazard from the bared flexible cord.

To disconnect the apparatus from the mains, the plug must be pulled out from the mains socket, therefore the mains plug shall be readily operable. The product unit accompanying this user manual is licenced under certain intellectual property rights of certain third parties.
