Select “Off” to turn off subtitles. This
setting may be changed later, or
using the Subtitle Button U on the
remote. If the subtitle language is
changed using the Subtitle Button
U, the change will only be effective
for that disc. Note that in order for
the selected subtitle language to
appear, it must be present on the
disc. Consult the disc jacket for
information on the subtitle
languages available.
The Panel Time-Out setting allows
you to select the length of time the
front-panel display remains illuminated
during disc playback (as some people
find the front-panel display to be dis-
tracting while a movie is playing). You
may program the DVD280 to refresh
the front-panel display only when a
button is pressed on the remote or
front panel, and to turn the display off
again after either 5 or 20 seconds
(see Figure 6). When the display is
off, the orange Power Indicator 3
will remain lit to remind you that the
unit is turned on. When the Panel
Time-Out setting is set to “Off”, the
display remains lit at all times. This
feature is only in effect when a DVD,
VCD or SVCD is playing. However,
you may always press the Dimmer
Button !p to dim the front-panel
display either by half or fully.

The Status Bar Time-Out setting
allows you to select the length of
time the Status Bar remains on-
screen. The Status Bar appears when
the Status Button R is pressed dur-
ing disc play, and it displays the title,
chapter/track, play mode and elapsed
or remaining time of the current disc.
The Status Bar display is also used
for selecting repeat and random
modes, audio tracks, subtitle tracks
or multiple angles. You may program
the Status Bar to remain on-screen for
either 5 or 20 seconds (see Figure 7).
When set to “Off,” the Status Bar will
remain on-screen until it is manually
cleared by pressing either the Status
Button R or the Clear Button q.
The Audio, Playlist, Repeat/Random
and Subtitle Status Bars include a
“Done” button on the right. When the
“Done” button is on-screen, you may
use the Navigation
/¤//
Buttons fh to scroll until it is
highlighted, then select it by pressing
the Enter Button 8. This will also
clear the Status Bar from the screen.
The mini Status Bar that appears on-
screen in response to certain actions,
such as opening or closing the Disc
Drawer 4, will always disappear
after two seconds.

Parental Control
The DVD280’s Password System is
used to control viewing of restricted
programs and offers the capability to
change the password itself and the
rating. The DVD280 is shipped with
“8888” as the default password and
with the parental control settings off.
The following instructions will show
how to change the password and
lock the settings.
NOTE: The DVD must be specifically
encoded with rating information for
Parental Control to work.
The Rating Levels
The five MPAA rating symbols are
“G” (General, Level 1), “PG” (Parental
Guidance, Level 3), “PG13” (Parental
Guidance and 13 years old, Level 4),
“R” (Restricted, Level 6) and “NC 17”
(from 17 years old, Level 7). The
DVD280 will accommodate a total of
eight rating steps, as set by the DVD
creators. These additional steps
allow for more critical control of pro-
gram playback for all audiences.
Level 8: All DVDs, including adult
materials, can be played.
Levels 7 to 2: DVDs for general audi-
ences/children can be played.
Level 1: DVDs for children can be
