Your DVD-ROM Drive ✱ Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment You must not use the drive in any manner other than that specified in this guide. CAUTION Do not attempt to repair the DVD-ROM drive yourself. Contact your dealer or local SAMSUNG representative for all repairs. If you make any adjustments or perform any operations other than those specified in this guide, you run the risk of exposure to hazardous radiation. Avoid exposing your eyes or skin to direct or scattered radiation. WARRANTY Please refer to the Samsung limited warranty statements. Precautions 1. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this appliance to rain or moisture. 2. Always check each disc for cracks before using it. If there are cracks on the surfaces, especially around the border of the center hole, we recommend that you make a copy of the disc immediately and then stop using it. If you continue using the disc, it will probably develop more cracks and eventually cause irreparable damage. 3. Do not use poor quality discs: q From unknown sources q Without any copyright q Scratched or damaged in any way 1 Installing the Device Driver No additional device driver is needed for Windows 95/98/XP/NT, as the default Windows device driver is used. You can check that the DVD-ROM drive has been correctly detected by Windows. To do so, proceed as follows. 1 Double-click on the My Computer icon on your desktop. 2 Double-click on the Control Panel folder. 3 Double-click on the System icon. 4 Click on the Device Manager tab. 5 Expand the CD-ROM branch. The SAMSUNG DVD-ROM SD - *** device name is displayed. The SAMSUNG device driver enables discs in the DVD-ROM drive to be read but not recorded in an MS-DOS environment; the driver is located in the D driver folder on the CD record utility disc. DVD Region Protection Coding (RPC): The RPC feature is supported on DVD players and is used with DVD-video discs (such as movies). Currently, the motion picture industry has divided the world into different regions or zones that correspond to the regional markets into which the motion picture industry releases movies. Simply put, RPC codes are placed on movies marketed throughout the world, based on the region of the world in which they are being sold. These RPC codes help control and prevent pirating of new movies into other motion picture regions prior to their true release dates within those markets. The SD-616 DVD-ROM drive supports RPC phase II. In the RPC-2 mode, the local code can be changed by users. RPC-2 is selected by default for the SD-616 DVD-ROM drive. You can change the region code up to five times via an MPEG application. Please contact your dealer or local SAMSUNG representative if you wish to change the local code more than five times. 6 12 3 4 56 1. Connector for stereo headphones with a 3.6 mm stereo mini-jack 2.
