Playing a disc
During normal use the DVD player should be left in the standby
state. This uses a negligible amount of electricity, but ensures
that the components of the DVD player operate at maximum
efficiency from the moment you start playing a disc.
If you are not going to use the DVD player for a period of several
days you should switch the unit completely off, at the back
panel, and disconnect it from the AC power supply.
To switch on from standby
● Press Open (OPEN/CLOSE) or * (STOP).
● Switch on any other equipment connected to the CD player
which is not part of the Meridian 500 Series.
The display will flash for a few seconds. The DVD player is then
ready for use.
To insert a disc
● Press Open (front panel) or OPEN/CLOSE (remote) to open
the drawer.
IMPORTANT: Never touch the lenses which are accessible
when the drawer is open.
● Place your disc, label side up, over the hub, as shown below.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the disc is correctly seated on the
disc spindle before closing the drawer.
● Press Open (OPEN/CLOSE) again or > (PLAY) to close the
drawer.
Most DVD videos start playing automatically when you close the
drawer.
Some DVD videos are double-sided, and need to be turned over
during play.
