DISC INFORMATION (cont.)

File Structure of Discs
DVD VIDEO
Typically, DVD VIDEO discs are made up of larger units called
“titles.” Each title has a number (title number) that can be used to
select desired titles. Titles are further divided into units called
“chapters.” Each chapter has a number (chapter number) that
can also be used to select desired chapters. Note that some discs
are not divided into titles and chapters.
Audio CD/Video CD
Typically, Audio CD discs are divided into separate tracks each
containing one song. Each track is assigned a number. For
example, the third track is Track 3. The same is true for Video
CD discs.
NOTE:
Video CD discs that support Playback Control (PBC)
The still image or motion image which follows a menu screen is
called a “scene.” Each scene has a scene number.
For more details, refer to “Locating a Desired Scene Using the
Menu of the Video CD with Playback Control (PBC) Function”
(墌pg. 41).
Placing a Disc
1Open the disc tray.
Press x OPEN/CLOSE on
the DVD deck to open the
disc tray.
●The unit’s power comes on
automatically.
●Do not block the disc tray with
your hand while it is opening
or closing as this may result in
hardware failure.
●Do not place unplayable discs or any object other than a disc
in the disc tray.
●Do not press down strongly on the disc tray or place any heavy
objects on it.
2Place the disc.
Place the disc in the disc tray
with the label side facing up.
●Since disc size changes depending
on the disc to be played back, be
sure to correctly align the disc with
the grooves for its size. If the disc is
not in its groove, it may be
scratched or otherwise damaged.
●To insert an 8 cm disc, place it according to the inner groove.
3Press x OPEN/CLOSE on the DVD deck to close

the disc tray.

●Pressing 4 PLAY also closes the disc tray.
●Playback begins automatically if an auto-playback DVD disc is
loaded. Although the VHS deck is selected, the DVD deck is
selected automatically (except when the VHS deck is in the
timer mode or the Automatic Satellite Programme Recording
mode.)
Care and Handling of Discs
How to handle discs
When handling a disc, do
not touch the surface of the
disc. Since discs are made
of plastic, they are easily
damaged. If a disc gets dirty,
dusty, scratched or warped,
the images and sound will
not be picked up correctly,
and such a disc may cause the unit to malfunction.
Label side
Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesive
on its surface.
Storage
Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled on
top of one another without their protective cases, they can be
damaged. Do not put discs in a location where they may be
exposed to direct sunlight, or in a place where the humidity or
temperature is high. Avoid leaving discs in your car!
Maintenance of discs
If there are fingerprints or other dirt
adhering to a disc, wipe with a soft dry
cloth, moving from the center outwards.
If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a
cloth moistened with water. Never use
record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any
anti-static agents.
