Video Off Feature
During CD playback, some listeners
may prefer to turn off the DVD280’s
video circuitry. Although the video
section is electrically isolated from
the audio section, some users may
prefer to turn the video displays off
during audio playback to prevent any
possibility of interference between
audio and video. You may also wish to
turn the video display off if you find
the menu system distracting or
unnecessary during CD playback.
To turn the video displays off while a
CD is playing, simply press the Video
Off Button
E
. Press the button
again to restore the video output. The
V-Off Indicator K will light to remind
you that the video displays have been
turned off. Note that the video output
will automatically be restored each
time the DVD280 is turned on.
