The first time you turn on your player, it will ask you to select a preferred language for the various displays via the menu which appears on your TV screen. If this menu is not displayed, on your TV screen select the AV socket to which you connected your player. The player menus as well as the dialogues and subtitles of the DVDs will always be presented in the language you’ve chosen if it is available on the discs played.

3.Select the language using Navigation keys on the remote control then press ok to confirm.

You can now watch a DVD or listen to an audio CD. However, we recommend you complete the initial player set-up in order to adapt its performances to those of your other devices. See pages 12 to 13.
