To Load and Play a Disc
When you press the
POWER
button the system
turns on in DVD mode. Put the disc’s printed-
side facing up into the disc compartment
about halfway into the slot. The disc will load
automatically and begin to play.
(Some discs may start at the root menu, where
“Play” must be selected to start movie.)
Depending on the disc and playback location
on the disc, the “
” icon may be displayed in
the upper-left corner of the screen indicating
that playback is not possible.
Notes on Discs
•
To keep a disc clean, do not touch its
surface. Handle the disc by its edge.
•
Keep your discs in their cases or disc
magazines when not in use. Also, do not
subject disc to heat/high temperature.
Avoid leaving them in a parked vehicle or
on a dashboard/rear tray.
•
Do not attach labels, or use discs with
sticky ink/residue. Such discs may stop
spinning when used, causing a
malfunction, or may ruin the disc.
•
Do not use any discs with labels or
stickers attached. The following
malfunctions may result from using such
discs:
•
Inability to eject a disc (due to a label or
sticker peeling off and jamming the eject
mechanism).
•
Inability to read audio data correctly (i.e.,
playback skipping, or no playback) due to
heat shrinking of a sticker or label causing
a disc to warp.
•
Before playing, clean the discs with a
commercially available cleaning cloth.
Wipe each disc from the center out. Do
not use solvents such as benzene,
thinner, commercially available cleaners,
or antistatic spray intended for analogue
discs.
•
Use only normal, round disc. If you insert
irregular, non-round, shaped discs they
may jam in the DVD player or not play
properly.
