PLAY button on the unit, "Reading" will appear on the display for 40 seconds and then "Incorrect Disc" will continue to
be displayed.

• Some playback operations of DVDs may be intentionally fixed by software producers. Since this unit plays DVDs
according to the disc contents the software producers designed, some playback features may not be available. Also
refer to the instructions supplied with the DVDs.

• When playing DTS-encoded Audio CDs, excessive noise will be heard from the analogue stereo outputs. To avoid
possible damage to the audio system, the consumer should take proper precautions when the analogue stereo
outputs of the DVD player are connected to an amplification system.

• Do not move the DVD/VCR during playback. Doing so may damage the disc.

• Use the OPEN/CLOSE button to open and close the disc tray. Do not push the disc tray while it is moving. Doing so

• In many instances, a menu screen will appear after playback of a movie is completed. Prolonged display of an on­screen menu may damage your television set, permanently etching that image onto its screen. To avoid this, be sure
to press the STOP button on your remote control once the movie is completed.

• During the DVD playback if you change the operating mode from DVD to VCR, the DVD will continue to play back the
disc and stop after about 5 minutes.

• There may be a slight delay between you pressing the button and the function activating.
