 PROBLEMS

If it appears that your DVD-Video player is faulty, first consult this checklist. It may be that something simple
has been overlooked.

Under no circumstances should you try to repair the player yourself; as this will invalidate the warranty. Only
qualified service personnel can remove the cover or service this player.

 

*

 When the unit is switched on the first time, SCART will be the defaulted video output. Press the V-SELECT

button to select the correct output modes. Your current output mode will show on the VFD.

THE PLAYER DOES NOT RESPOND TO THE
REMOTE CONTROL

  • Aim the remote control directly at the sensor on

the front of the player.

  • Avoid all obstacles which may interfere with the

signal path.

  • Inspect or replace the batteries.

NO SOUND

  • Check audio connections.

  • If using a Hi-Fi amplifier, try another sound source.

  • Check that DTS digital out is selected in the Audio

Menu if a DTS disc is played.

  • Ensure there is a DTS decoder connected when

selecting DTS.

  • Clean the disc.

  • Check if the disc is defective by trying another disc

NO AUDIO AT DIGITAL OUTPUT

  • Check the digital connections

  • Check the Digital Out menu to make sure that the

digital output is correctly set.

  • Check if the audio format of the selected audio

language matches your unit capabilities.

DISC CANNOT BE PLAYED

 

 • Ensure disc is placed properly into the disc tray.

YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN THE PASSWORD

  • Under no disc condition, press Number Key 7,

Number Key 6, Number Key 4, Number Key 1 and
Number 8 on Remote Control in order.

THE DISC IS STUCK INSIDE THE PLAYER

  • In case the disc is stuck inside the tray, please

switch the unit off, unplug the power cord and wait
for 2 minutes. The player will resume normal
operation after switching on.

FUNCTION DISTURBED

  • The normal function of the product may be

disturbed by external interference.  Just reset the
product (reconnect of power source may be
required to resume normal operation).

NO POWER

  • Check if the on/off button on the front of the player

is set to on.

  • Check if power plug of the mains cord is properly

connected.

  • Check if there is power at the AC outlet by

plugging in another appliance.

NO PICTURE

  • Check if the TV is switched on.

  • Select the correct AV input on the TV.

  • Check the video connection.

  • Check if channel selector is set to AV on the TV.

(See your TV manual for instructions).

  • When Progressive Scan is on, no video output for

composite video output.

  • Press the V-SELECT button to select the correct

video output mode.

DISTORTED PICTURE

 

 • Check the disc for fingerprints and clean with soft

cloth, wiping from center to edge.

  • Sometimes a small amount of picture distortion

may appear. This is not a malfunction.

  • The disc format does not match the TV-set used

(PAL/NTSC).

NO COLOR IN PICTURE

 

 • The disc format is not according to the TV-set

used (PAL/NTSC).

  • Ensure DVD player is not connected through VCR.

PICTURE SWING

  • Relocate the unit further away from possible

interference or emission source (e.g. Radio, Power
Amplifier, radiator etc.).

NO RETURN TO START-UP SCREEN WHEN
DISC IS REMOVED

  • Check to see if the program requires another disc

to be loaded.

  • Reset by unplugging the player from the power,

then connect the power again.
