Troubleshooting
If you experience any of the following difficulties while
using the player, use this troubleshooting guide to help
you remedy the problem. Should any problem persist,
consult your nearest Sony dealer.

not lit, check that the AC power cord is connected
securely.

input connector on the TV. (page 8)
/ Make sure you turn on the TV.

your VCR to get to your TV, the copy-protection
applied to some DVD programs could affect
picture quality. If you still experience problems
after checking your connections, please try
connecting your DVD player directly to your TV’s
S-input, if your TV is equipped with this input.
