About this owner’s manual
This owner’s manual explains the basic instructions of this
unit. Some DVD video discs are produced in a manner
that allows speci
fi
c or limited operation during playback. As
such, the unit may not respond to all operating command.
This is not a defect in the unit. Refer to instruction notes of
discs.
The following symbol may appear on the TV screen during
operation.
It means that the operation is not permitted by the TV/DVD
or the disc.
For example, sometimes it is unable to stop the playback
of copyright message of the disc when the STOP (
■
)
button is pressed. Alternatively, this symbol may also
indicate that the feature is not available for the disc.
Notes on region numbers
The region number of this unit is 1. If region numbers,
which stand for their playable area, are printed on your
DVD video disc and you do not
fi
nd
1
or
ALL
, disc
playback will not be allowed by the player. (In this case,
the unit will display a message on-screen.)
Some DVDs that have no region code label may still be
subject to area restrictions and therefore not playable.
On Video CDs
This unit supports Video CDs equipped with the PBC
(Version 2.0) function. (PBC is the abbreviation of

In addition to operation of a Video CD not equipped with
the PBC function, you can enjoy playback of interactive
software with search function by using the menu
displayed on the TV screen (Menu Playback). Some of
the functions described in this owner’s manual may not
work with some discs.
