See the manual supplied with your disc burner for more infor- mation. Condensation or dirt on the optical pickup lens can also affect playback.

About this Manual

This manual explains how to use all of the DVD player’s functions. Although the DVD standard offers many spe- cial features, not all discs use them all, so depending on the disc being played, the DVD player may not respond to certain functions. See your disc’s sleeve notes for sup- ported features.

When you attempt to use a DVD feature that is not available, this logo may appear onscreen, indicating that the feature is not supported by the current disc or by the DVD player.
