Disc Operations

IMPORTANT!

If the inhibit icon (ø or X) appears on the TV screen when a button is pressed, it means the function is not available on the current disc or at the current time.

DVD discs and players are designed with regional restrictions. Before playing a disc, make sure the disc is for the same zone as your player.

Do not push on the disc tray or put any objects other than discs on the disc tray. Doing so may cause the disc player to malfunction.
