OPERATION
Now that you have installed and configured your DVD 38, you are ready
to begin enjoying your home theater system.
Turning On the DVD 38
When you have plugged in the DVD 38, the Power Indicator next to the
power switch should light up in amber. This indicates that the DVD 38
is in Standby mode and is ready to be turned on. See Figure 16.

To turn the DVD 38 off, press either the Standby/On Switch on the front
panel, or press the Power Off Button on the remote. See Figure 16.
When the DVD 38 is unplugged, any settings you have programmed
will be preserved for up to four weeks.
Although you may previously have owned a CD or DVD player, we
recommend you take a few minutes to learn the specifics of operating
the DVD 38. You also may want to take a moment now to review the
glossary terms in the back of the manual to familiarize yourself with
the terminology used to describe DVD players.
Playback Basics
In some respects disc playback is the same for all types of discs.
We suggest you read through the basic instructions, and then read
the sections pertaining to the various disc types.
Disc Handling Precautions
• To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its edge. Do not touch
the surface. See Figure 29.
Figure 29 – How to Handle a Disc
• Do not stick paper or tape on the disc. If there is glue (or a similar
substance) on the disc, remove the glue completely before using
the disc.
• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources such as hot air
ducts, or leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight, as there can be
a considerable rise in temperature inside the car.
• After playing, store the disc in its case.
• Do not write on the label side with a ball-point pen or other sharp
writing utensil.
• Be careful not to drop or bend the disc.
Disc Cleaning Precautions
• Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc
from the center out.
• Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner, commercially available
cleaners or anti-static spray.
Disc Loading Precautions
• Do not load more than one disc on disc tray.
• Do not place a disc on the tray upside down.
• Do not try to close the disc tray when the disc is not positioned or
centered properly.
Loading Discs
To load discs in the DVD 38, first turn it on by pressing the Standby/On
Switch or the Open/Close Button on the front panel or the Power On
Button on the remote. The Power Indicator is amber when the unit is
connected to an AC power source, and it turns blue when the DVD 38
is turned on.
Next, if you have not already done so, press the Open/Close Button so
that the disc tray opens.
Hold the disc by the edge, and gently place it into the disc drawer, making
certain that the disc is properly seated in the tray’s insert. If the disc is
not correctly centered, you may damage both the disc and the player
when the drawer closes. When loading discs, please note the following:
• The DVD 38 will play discs with the following logos as well as
most DVD-RW or DVD+RW discs and most WMA and JPEG discs,
including Kodak Picture CDs, but not Kodak Photo CDs. DO NOT
attempt to play another type of disc.
