• A “No Feature” symbol may
appear at the bottom right of the TV
screen. This symbol means either the
feature you tried is not available on
the Disc, or the DVD Player can not
access the feature at this time. This
does not indicate a problem with the
DVD Player.
• If a Disc is dirty or has scratches, the
pictures may appear distorted and
playback may stop. In such cases,
remove the Disc and turn off the DVD
Player. Disconnect the power cord,
then reconnect it. Clean the Disc, then
turn on the DVD Player again and
reinsert the Disc for playback.
• When the DVD or CD light appears
on the display panel, the Disc is
loaded completely and is ready for
playback.
• Playback will end when the current
disc stops playback.
• If the disc has not been set on the
tray, the DVD Player will play the disc
which is set on the right side tray.
• When you want to select another disc,
press the DISC SELECT button
repeatedly or the DISC Number but-
ton for your desired disc.
Be careful to keep your fingers clear
of the disc tray.
