Operation
Turning your system on and off
You can turn your system on and off using the On/Off button (
) on the remote control or the power button (
) on top of the media center. When you turn it on with either button, the source that was played last is automatically selected.
You can also press any source button on the remote to turn the system on and select the source at the same time.
Before you play your first DVD
Before you play the first DVD:
•Check the parental control settings (see “Using the Parental Control feature to restrict future play” on page 34).
•Familiarize yourself with the system remote control, as explained on page 26.
•Make sure that the region codes for the DVD player and disc match, as explained on page 5. Check the region code number on the media center label or on the shipping carton.
•Confirm that the disc is encoded for any required features. For example, in order to display subtitles in a movie, the disc must contain subtitle information.
Selecting the correct video input on your TV
In order to play a DVD, your television must be set to receive signals from the correct video input jack.
Most TVs have a TV/VIDEO, INPUT, or AUX IN button for selecting the video input. When the TV is on, the word “VIDEO 1”, “VIDEO 2”, or “AUX” will usually appear in a corner of the screen to indicate which video input is currently selected.
Before playing a DVD, locate the name of the video input jack (on the TV) that you have connected the video cable to, then turn the TV on and select the video input (on the screen) that matches the name of that jack.
If you are unable to select the correct video input setting on your television, please consult your TV’s owner’s guide.
