Playing a disc, To switch on from standby | Meridian America 586

Playing a disc

During normal use the DVD player should be left in the standby state. This uses a negligible amount of electricity, but ensures that the components of the DVD player operate at maximum efficiency from the moment you start playing a disc.

If you are not going to use the DVD player for a period of several days you should switch the unit completely off, at the back panel, and disconnect it from the AC power supply.

To switch on from standby

●Press Open (OPEN/CLOSE) or * (STOP).

●Switch on any other equipment connected to the CD player which is not part of the Meridian 500 Series.

The display will flash for a few seconds. The DVD player is then ready for use.

To insert a disc

●Press Open (front panel) or OPEN/CLOSE (remote) to open the drawer.

●Place your disc, label side up, over the hub, as shown below.

IMPORTANT: Ensure that the disc is correctly seated on the disc spindle before closing the drawer.

●Press Open (OPEN/CLOSE) again or > (PLAY) to close the drawer.

Most DVD videos start playing automatically when you close the drawer.

Some DVD videos are double-sided, and need to be turned over during play.

Using the DVD player

IMPORTANT: Never touch the lenses which are accessible
when the drawer is open.	11
