The tray will close automatically, then playback will start from the first chapter or track of the disc. If the playback does not start automatically, press the PLAY button.

NOTES:

A “prohibited icon” may appear at the top-right on the TV screen during operation, warning

that a prohibited operation has been encountered by the DVD player or the disc.

With DVDs that use some titles for play-

back program signals, playback may start from the sec- ond title, or it may skip these titles.

During the playback of two layered disc, pictures may stop for a moment. This happens when the 1st layer switches to the 2nd layer. This is not a malfunction.

The operation may vary when you playback DVDs with disc menu or Video CDs with PBC. Refer to the manual accompanying the disc for details.

A DVD-RW disc recorded in the VR mode may freeze momentarily during playback depending on how the playlist was made and edited (deleted titles, repeated recording).
