Region 2

Player Zones

For the purpose of distribution of DVD discs, the world has been separated into 6 zones. The zone this unit is intended for is indicated on the Zone Label. This should be the same as the label on discs available in your region. If you have any difficulties in playing a disc, make sure that the disc is for the same zone as your unit.

Anti-Copy Disc Protection

Some DVD discs have anti-copying devices. It is impossible to copy these discs.

• Install your unit on a stable flat surface. There must be

sufficient room in front of the unit for the drawer to be opened and the unit should be positioned so that it can face to the remote control.

• Do not expose your unit to extremes of temperature or humidity.

• Avoid standing it on a hot surface such as on top of other hot running equipment and ensure that there is adequate ventilation to the unit.

Caution:

Do not install this equipment in a confined space such as a book case or similar unit!

DVD Discs

There are several types of DVD Disc: Single-sided discs play for approximate 2 Hours

Single-sided two-layer discs play for approximate 4 Hours Double-sided discs play for approximate 4 Hours Double-sided discs with double-layer on both sides play for approximately 8 Hours DVD discs have Titles and Chapters:

* There can be several Titles on one disc and each Title can

contain several Chapters. Titles and Chapters are numbered, e.g. Title 1, Title 2, Chapter 1 and etc.

* Usually Title one will show the disc publisher and studio

logos. The next Title will be the film. Other Titles contain trailers for other films, production notes, or alternative endings for the film. There are many possibilities with Digital Versatile Disc.

* Chapters within the main Title allow you to search quickly for

a specific point on the disc. Many discs have a Chapter Menu sometimes called Scene Index or Scene Menu that displays the first shot from each Chapter, which allows you to select a

shot and play the disc from that point onwards. DVD discs can be PAL or NTSC. This player can play both types (if the player zone is correct).

DVD discs allow up to 8 Languages and 32 subtitles on a single disc. The language and subtitle can be changed, and the whole disc or just part of it can be played and viewed from different angles ( if the video is shot at different camera angles).

Cleaning Disc

Picture freezing & sound skipping or repeating can occur if the disc inside the player is dirty.

• When a disc becomes dirty, clean it with a cleaning cloth.

Wipe the disc from the center out.

• Do not wipe in a circular motion. Circular scratches can

cause picture distortion or render the disc unplayable.

Caution: Do not use solvents, commercially available cleaners, or antistatic spray to clean discs.
