Please follow the update instructions carefully. Failure to follow the instructions may interrupt the update process and may cause the player to be unresponsive or to require repair.

Do not power off the player or disconnect it from the AC power outlet. Loss of power during the installation of the firmware update may cause the player to be unresponsive or to require repair.

Use a brand new CD-R disc to burn the firmware update. The player may not be able to correctly read a dirty disc or a disc with scratches.

Microsoft® Windows® 98SE or later is needed.

Windows Vista®, Windows XP, or Windows 2000 (Service Pack 4) is recommended.

A drive with CD disc burning capability is required to create the update disc.
