No forward or reverse scan

lf at any time in the future you should need to dispose of this product please note that waste electrical products should not be disposed of with household waste. Please recycle where facilities exist. Check with your Local Authority or retailer for recycling advice. (Waste Electrical and Electronic equipment Directive)

Owing to continuous improvement, no prior notice will be given regarding changes on above feature and spec.

Make sure the machine is connected properly. Make sure all cables are securely inserted into the appropriate jacks.

You can't advance through the opening credits and warning information that appears at the beginning of movies because the disc is programmed to prohibit that action.

The feature or action cannot be completed at this time because:

1. The disc's software restricts it.

2. The disc's software doesn't support the feature (e.g., angles)

3. The feature is not available at the moment.

4. You've requested a title or chapter number that is out of range.

The disc might be damaged. Try another disc; It is normal for some distortion to appear during forward or reverse scan.

Some discs have sections that prohibit rapid scanning or chapter skip; If you try to skip through the warning information and credits at the beginning of a movie, you won't be able to. This part of the movie is often programmed to prohibit skipping through it.
