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 specific or limited operation during playback.
As such, the unit may not respond to all operating
commands. 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 DVD/
VCR 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.
