Tip to obtain a higher quality picture

Occasionally, some picture noise not usually visible during a normal broadcast may appear on the TV screen while playing a DVD-Video because the high resolution pictures on these discs include a lot of information. While the amount of noise depends on the TV you use, you should generally adjust the TV to reduce sharpness when viewing

CAUTION

Keep your fingers well clear of the disc tray as it is closing. Neglecting to do so may cause serious personal injury.
