Introduction
Introduction
Your DVD player is equipped with some special features. The following information summarizes some of these
features.
The On-Screen Information Display
The Info Display is a menu bar that you can bring up to access certain features while discs are playing. Icons represent
the different features supported by your DVD player. You can access features including Repeat, Audio, Subtitles and
Camera Angle.
Time Search
The Time Search feature lets you go to a point on a disc by entering the elapsed time in the on-screen time display. For
example, if your favorite scene in a movie is one hour and twelve minutes after the beginning of the movie, you can enter
01:12:00 into the time display and go right to that point in the movie.
Ratings Limits
Your DVD player allows you to set ratings limits and passwords. For example, you can set the DVD player so that any
movie with a PG-13 rating or above requires a password to be entered.
Since not all discs contain ratings, you can also decide if you want to allow free access or require a password to view
unrated discs.

Chapter 1
Things to Consider Before You Connect
Protect Against Power Surges
•
•
•
Connect all components before you plug any of their power cords into the wall outlet.
Turn off the TV and/or components before you connect or disconnect any cables.
Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded. Refer to the Important Safeguards sheet
packed with your DVD player.
Protect Components from Overheating
•
Don’t block ventilation holes on any of the components. Arrange the components so that air can
circulate freely.
•
•
•
Don’t stack components.
When you place components in a stand, make sure you allow adequate ventilation.
If you connect an audio receiver or amplifier, place it on the top shelf so the heated air from it
won’t flow around other components.
Position Cables Properly to Avoid Audio Interference
•
Insert each cable firmly into the designated jack.
•
If you place components above the TV, route all cables down the side of the back of the TV instead
of straight down the middle of the back of the TV.
•
If your antenna uses 300-ohm twin lead cables, do not coil the cables. Also, keep the twin lead
cables away from audio/video cables.

Types of Discs Your DVD Player will Play
•
•
•
DVD video discs – DVD video discs contain high quality picture and sound content.
Audio discs – Audio CDs contain musical or sound content only.
Video CD discs – Like DVD video discs, Video CDs contain picture and sound content. The
difference is the amount of information that can be stored on the disc.
•
•
CD-R – A disc that you can write information to once (for example, download MP3 files).
CD-RW – A re-writable disc. You can write information onto this type of disc more than once. For
example, if you have previously downloaded MP3 files to a CD-RW disc, you can write information
to the disc again, but it will erase the previously written information.

Important Battery Information
•
•
•
If you’re not going to use the remote for a month or more, be sure to remove
the battery because they can leak and cause damage.
Dispose of batteries in the proper manner, according to federal, state, and local
regulations.
Any battery may leak electrolyte if mixed with a different battery type, if
inserted incorrectly, if all batteries are not replaced at the same time, if
disposed of in fire, or if an attempt is made to charge a battery not intended to
be recharged.
•
Discard leaky batteries immediately. Leaking batteries can cause skin burns or
other personal injury.
Point the Remote in the Right Direction
When you want the remote to operate the DVD Player, point the remote at the
DVD Player, not the TV. The remote has to be pointed in the correct direction and
toward the correct component in order for the remote’s signal to communicate with
the sensor on the component. Make sure there is a clear path between the remote
and the component you want to operate so the signal isn’t blocked.

Regional Coding
Both the DVD player and the discs are coded by region. These regional codes must match in order for
the disc to play. If the codes don’t match, the disc won’t play. This player’s code is region 1.
Using Different Menus
Each disc is programmed with different features. There are three separate menu paths that you can use
to access features:
•
The Disc menu – The Disc menu is part of each disc and is separate from the DVD player’s menu.
The contents of each Disc menu varies according to how the disc was authored and what features
are included. The Disc menu is turned on and off (while the disc is playing) with the MENU button
on the remote.
•
•
The DVD player’s Info Display – The Info Display appears as icons across the top of the screen
when a disc is playing. It can only be accessed while you are playing a disc. It’s turned on and off
with the INFO button on the remote.
The DVD player menu – The DVD player’s menu system is accessed only when a disc isn’t
playing. It appears automatically when the STOP button is pressed.
Remember that a feature will only work if the disc was programmed with that feature. For example, if
you choose subtitles on the Info Display, the subtitles will only appear if the disc was created with
subtitles. If a menu item is “grayed out” it means that item isn’t available.
Loading and Playing Discs
Your DVD player plays DVD discs, Video CD discs, Audio CD discs and CD-R discs (MP3 files). Before
you load a disc, make sure that it is compatible with the player. The following discs CANNOT be used
with this player:
•
•
•
Laserdiscs
CD-I, CD-ROM (computer-only discs), DVD-ROM
Discs recorded using other broadcast standards (i.e. PAL or SECAM)

Using a Disc Menu
A disc is capable of having an on-screen menu that is separate from the DVD player’s menu system
and on-screen Info Display. The disc menu might only contain a list of the titles and chapters, or it

What is a Video CD?
Like DVD discs, Video CDs contain picture and sound content. Video CDs (VCDs) are encoded in a
different format. VCDs don’t hold as much information as DVD discs and the picture quality is not as
high.
VCDs can have more than one title. Each title is divided into tracks (similar to chapters on a DVD disc).
The Video CD Disc Menu
A Video CD disc is capable of having an on-screen menu that is separate from the DVD player’s menu
system and on-screen information banners. If the disc has a menu, the menu will appear after the disc is
loaded into the player.
The content and operation of disc menus varies from disc to disc. Check the instructions that accompany
the Video CD for more information on how to use the playback control functions for that specific disc.
If a disc menu appears:
1. Use the number buttons on the remote to select a track (similar to a title).
2. Press
3. Press
4. Press

Care and Maintenance
Handling Cautions
•
•
•
•
Before connecting other components to this player, be sure to turn all components off.
Don’t put any container filled with liquid or any small metal objects on the player.
Don’t place anything other than the disc in the disc tray.
Exterior influences such as lightning and static electricity can affect normal operation of this player. If
this occurs, turn the player off and on again with the ON•OFF button, or disconnect and then
reconnect the AC power cord to the AC power outlet. The player will operate normally.
•
Be sure to remove the disc and turn off the player after use.
Maintenance of Case
For safety reasons, when cleaning the case be sure to disconnect the AC power cord from the AC
outlet.
•
•
Do not use benzene, thinner, or other solvents for cleaning.
Wipe the case with a soft cloth.
Formation of Condensation
•
•
•
Due to sharp changes in temperature and humidity, condensation may form if warm air comes
in contact with any cold parts inside the player.
When condensation forms inside the player, the player may not operate correctly. If this occurs,
leave the player at room temperature until the inside of the player becomes dry and operational.
If condensation forms on a disc, wipe the disc with a soft, dry cloth by moving the cloth from
the center hole toward the outer edge.
Handling Discs
•
Don’t touch the disc’s signal surfaces. Hold by the edges or by one edge and the hole in the
center.
•
•
Don’t affix labels or adhesive tape to label surfaces. Don’t scratch or damage the label.
Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.

Chapter 6
Cleaning Discs
•
•
•
Dirty discs can cause reduced video and audio performance. Always keep discs clean by wiping
them gently with a soft cloth from the inner edge toward the outer perimeter.
If a disc becomes very dirty, wet a soft cloth in water, wring it out well. Wipe the dirt away
gently, and remove any water drops with a dry cloth.
Do not use record-cleaning sprays or anti-static agents on discs. Also, never clean the discs with
benzene, thinner, or other volatile solvents which may cause damage to the disc surface.
