After Video and Audio Cables are Connected and Power is Applied
Once the DVD Player is properly connected to your TV and possibly your receiver also, turn on your TV and make
sure it’s set to the correct input channel. The video input is usually configured as channel 0 or 1 on most TVs, but
may be referred to as “Input 1” or “Aux In” or similar names. These procedures assume you are using a NTSC-
compatible TV - standard for North and South America. If you are using a PAL-type, you will need to change the TV
Type first. In this case, see pg 39 - Video Setup Options.
Power on the DVD Player
Push the Power Button on the back of the unit firmly to turn
on the player. You should see the message “ON” in the DVD
Display. Then, the player will attempt to read a disc. With no
disc in the unit, the message INSERT DISC will be displayed.

Quick Tips
About Standby Mode
Your DVD Player is
equipped with a power-

Powering on from the Remote
Once the back power switch is in the ON position, the unit
can be turned off and on by the remote. When the unit is
turned off by the remote, it will go into STANDBY MODE.
This allows the unit to be quickly “awakened” by pressing the
POWER key on the remote again.
Opening the Disc Tray
Press the OPEN/CLOSE button on the remote or on the
player (to the right of the disc tray) to insert a disc. There are
two grooves in the disc tray - 12cm and 8cm. Make sure the
disc is properly set into the tray. Small 8cm discs must be
positioned exactly in the middle groove. Press the
OPEN/CLOSE button again to close the disc tray. You will
see the message READ on the display. Once the disc is
read, you should see the menu screen for DVD discs, or
hear sound for an Audio CD.

The Play Button
Most DVDs will automatically display a menu when inserted.
However, some discs will require you to press the PLAY
button. Also, the PLAY button can usually be used to quickly
start a DVD movie when pressed with the menu displayed.
This function varies with discs.
