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.
