• A prohibition message “Depending on the disc, this operation may be prohibited” or “This operation can’t be performed”
may appear at the screen. This message means either the feature you tried is not available on the disc, or the unit cannot

• When you set a single-faced disc label downwards (i.e. the wrong way up) “Loading” will appear on the display and then
“Can’t play disc” will be displayed.
• Some playback operations of DVDs may be intentionally fixed by software producers. Since this TV/DVD plays DVDs
according to the disc content recorded, some playback features may not be available. Also refer to the instructions supplied
with the DVDs.

• Use EJECT to unload and eject the disc.
• Do not put any objects other than discs on the disc slot. Doing so may cause the unit to malfunction.

memory.
